The condo is exactly as pictured. There were a few issues with equipment not working properly such as the overhead fan in the LR not responding to the remote and the light burned out on the upstairs fan. The upstairs bed is very, very comfy for someone who likes a firm mattress. The downstairs master bed is good for those who like a softer bed and the twin beds were good as well. The livingroom furniture could use an upgrade, the chair cushions are a bit worn down and the barrel chairs are virtually useless. The couch in the picture is different than what we found. I purchased two new fry pans and left them for future guests as the ones in the cupboard were beginning to lose their teflon coat and my daughter-in-law is pregnant. I also purchased two new fishing rods and left them for future travelers but I am not sure they are very good for surf fishing.
The snorkel equipment got a lot of use! We really appreciated the sand chairs, snorkel equipment and boogie boards that were available.
The KOA rules can feel a bit overwhelming and we joked a lot about level 1, 2 or 3 fines when someone did something silly but honestly, there was no problem at all. I blew a breaker and had to call for assistance to get the bathroom plugs working again and the response was immediate. By the way, the breaker box is behind the main bedroom door....
The showers were nice, good pressure but really need a curtain or door as the water gets all over the floor no matter where you stand. The washer, dryer and dishwasher worked well but the stove was a bit of a challenge. I have a glass cooktop and am familiar but still had a hard time controlling temp. The oven smoked something awful when we used it. Lots of towels available, sheets were soooo nice and comfy.
We snorkeled off the beaches, explored the lava beds down south, went into Lahaina, took the Pacific Whale Foundation boat to Lanai'i Island for the best snorkeling I have ever enjoyed. The KOA pool and hot tub are great. Didn't use any of the other facilities as we were gone exploring every day until well into the evening.
As for must-go places to eat, the Kihei Cafe and Coconuts are top of the list. If you are interested in attending a Luau, try the Hyatt in Lahaina, the best I have ever seen.
Foodland and Long's drugs will get you the best prices for local groceries, your best bet is the Costco out by the airport if feeding a large group. Overall, a great time and would rent again.
