Picking the right location to stay in Maui can be daunting, finding the perfect place, much more so. For us, Maalaea Bay was the idyllic spot, and this first-floor condo was as close to perfect as we could find. The neighborhood was quiet and walkable, adjacent to the aquarium, marina and a general store with great sandwiches, coffee, and snacks. It’s central location, made the island’s points of interest easily accessible.
From the moment we walked in the front door of the unit, we felt at ease. Being a first-floor unit, it was serene and tranquil. The lanai offered breathtaking views of the bay and our morning coffees were paired with theatrical displays of breaching whales. The kitchen was generously supplied with just the right amount of cooking utensils and the beach bags, chairs, coolers, and beach towels were a welcomed bonus.
Our host, John, was responsive and accessible and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was pleasant. We can’t thank him enough for the great suggestions of things to do and places to go and for hosting us in his beautiful home. It made for a relaxing and carefree vacation.
