My husband and I chose to rent Paul's condo mostly because of the beautiful view in the pictures he posted on his VRBO website, and we were not disappointed!! The view was more breathtaking than in the photos! The lush landscaping around the property is like a postcard, and I was in awe every single day I looked at that view. We were really looking forward to a relaxing vacation with our 10 month old son, our first trip with him, so we knew we would be spending a lot of time in our condo. That's why we decided to spend the extra money and choose a beautiful and large condo in Wailea, and Paul's condo was everything that was listed on VRBO plus more. We thoroughly enjoyed the spacious condo, and we had plenty of room for all of the baby gear we rented for our son. He had plenty of room to crawl around and play, and the crib fit perfectly in our bedroom. It was a breeze to set up our video monitor in the bedroom while our son slept, so Mommy and Daddy could enjoy a few drinks on the lanai each evening. :)
The condo was in great shape, very clean and tidy when we arrived. The huge windows are AMAZING, with a fabulous view from every room. The lanai is very spacious with all of the patio furniture you would need. The indoor furniture was pretty and comfortable, very "island-style". The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed, including a brand new steamer that was a huge bonus for us so that we could buy fresh fruit and veggies for our son and steam them in the comfort of our condo. There were more than enough clean towels and bedding. The A/C in the main living space was recently purchased and installed before we arrived there, and it was so quiet I had to call the caretaker to see if it was working, LOL! Though after a few minutes we could feel the condo become a pleasant cooler temperature. The main pool area was fantastic, lots of tables and chairs to relax on, and only steps to the beautiful beach. We made the short walk everyday with our son so he could splash around in the pool and we could walk along the beach.
Paul was very professional and friendly to deal with, and always responded to our questions very promptly. He returned our damage deposit very quickly as promised. His caretaker Paula was very friendly too, and only a phonecall away the one time we had a question to ask.
We will definitely be returning to Paul's condo for another trip to Maui in the future, and we will highly recommend his condo to all of our friends!
