While this was our third time renting a home in Maui, this was our first time renting on the western side of the island. The home did not disappoint.
Some of the numerous positives to this home:
- Spacious : This home had plenty of indoor and outdoor space. We had no issues with our extended family of 8 (of varying ages) Two bedrooms are located on first floor making it easy for older relatives. Each floor had a living room/family room allowing for different groups to watch/do different activities. All of the bedrooms were very roomy and all but 1 had direct access to a bathroom.
- Relaxing : The home was very comfortable & relaxing. The pool area had numerous chairs/tables as did the family/living areas. Early morning and evenings in the pool area were a favorite since you could see the sun hitting the water / nearby island in the morning and could catch sunsets at night.
- Amazing Views : As implied in my previous comments, the home has some very nice views of the water courtesy of its location. The home is situated near a golf course which grants the home a nearly unobstructed view of the beach/water from the pool / deck area.
- Location : The home is very conveniently located. The closest beach is a mere ~60 second (or less) drive across the street to a parking lot with ample *free* parking. Whaler's Village, is less than 5 minutes away. Front Street, in Lahaina, is also a short drive.
- Property Management - The property management contact was VERY responsive and if we needed anything, they were quick to respond.
Negatives :
We did not have any major issues while in this home. We did encounter a few minor issues, though none of them were "deal breakers" by any means. Additionally, home renters should expect to encounter some minor issues, especially when the houses are in heavy demand. (E.g. if the home is booked 24x7x365, there isn't a lot of time for major repairs/updates/etc.)
For reference some of the things we encountered:
- One electrical outlet didn't work (there were plenty of others so no real issue)
- Grill was ran out of propane (Property Mgmt. brought a replacement over in ~10 minutes)
- A bedroom TV wasn't working (We didn't go to Maui for TV and there were numerous other TVs)
All-in-all, no issues that would prevent me from renting this property again.
Thanks for having us!
