I have been to Hawaii many times, especially Maui. This was, by far, the best place I have ever stayed. Location, location, location!!! This condo gets a five star. First of all it is located on beautiful grounds, with ocean views, and within minutes from the number one beach on Maui - Kaanapali. The waters are clear, warm, and easily accessible from the beach (sandy, no rocks). We were able to swim and snorkel every day (Black Rock at the Sheraton and a reef within walking distance from the cabana). Oh! The cabana, how nice was that! The resort will take you down to the cabana, if you prefer, in their golf carts. We did that several times as we packed drinks and lunches and didn't feel like walking (5 mins.). The cabana is right on the beach, only for Maui El Dorado guests, and they have a full kitchen, restrooms, showers, towels, shade.....such a treat!
The resort is located near the Sheraton and some of the most luxurious hotels on Maui. We were able to walk on a pathway connecting all of these resorts to the beach. We did that many times for power walks in the morning, or just to eat out for lunch, drinks, shopping, or just to dip in the waters along the beach. We also hit a Luau at the Sheraton as it was just a 5 min walk for us.
Many times we found ourselves out and about exploring other parts of the Island only to want and hurry up and get back to our condo. Not only because of the beautiful grounds and ocean, but because it was soooo darn comfortable. It had everything you needed. My husband and I couldn't get over how comfortable the furniture and bed was including the linens and huge beach towels they provided. The kitchen had everything you could imagine to cook with, and it was extremely clean and well kept (looks like everything is brand new). The views from inside the condo and the lanai were exceptional! The lanai is as long as the condo, very comfortable furniture to nap on or to eat meals. And the condo had all the TVs and electronics so that my husband didn't miss out on his football games :)
We will definitely come back, had a blast and loved the condo!! We highly recommend this place and it deserves five stars! Thanks so much for allowing us to stay at your place.
