Perfectly Imperfect! LOVED IT

I love how lived-in this condo is. I know that I can relax and make myself comfortable, throw in a load of laundry, grab a boogie board and head for the sand, hit the pool and chat up the neighbors, walk down to the cafe and get a coffee/breakfast sandwich, hop on a boat or just spend the day on the most-of-the-day shaded lanai. Housekeeping is friendly and accomodating, the owner has all the details in hand and I never worry about getting help IF I ever needed it. I look forward to the next time I get to stay at this condo and highly recommend it to anyone ..... but most especially to those laid back Aloha types that appreciate a perfectly imperfect lived in condo!

Very good value and location

We stayed a week. The property is older and some of the furnishings are a bit dated, but overall clean, comfortable and well furnished for our needs. The view from our balcony was amazing. The location is very convenient for getting to all parts of the island. The owner was quick to respond to our questions.

Beautiful views and whales

This was a perfect setting! Quiet safe neighborhood to easily walk and the views from the lanai were breathtaking. We watched whales every day from the balcony! We could easily access any part of the island and had necessities close by. Could not have had a better location. Host was non existent after booking. Apparently had health issues but never gave check in info to anyone. Had to scramble to contact management on a Sunday. Very poor start to a great stay.

Beautiful ocean front view.

We loved being right on the beach. We ate all of our meals on the lanai so we could take in the sights and sounds of the ocean. We would definitely stay here again.

Super comfortable with amazing view

Loved this place, the view is unbeatable. The beds and sheets were extremely comfortable. I loved opening the windows and sleeping to the ocean. The fans helped keep it cool. I’d just say for future guests make sure to bring travel body wash, shampoo and laundry detergent. We had to buy some and it’s not cheap!

Awesome view, condo needs upgrades!

Obviously, the view was awesome! The view sells a lot of people, it sold us. The condo could use an upgrade and a thorough cleaning. Carpet in bedroom was worn to backing. Throw rug covered but cause trip hazard. We have to pay 150 for cleaning I would have expected to be clean of dust. The biggest sell was the patio when we were there!!

Amazing location

We had a wonderful 7 day in Maui, and this property helped make it even better. The location is perfect, centrally located on the island in Maalaea. Watching turtles swimming right below us, while sitting on the lanai, was amazing. The condo was clean, comfortable and well stocked with all the necessities.

Great location and amazing view

We have stayed at different units many times in the past 20 years. The location never disappoints. We loved the opportunity to stay ocean front and on the top floor which was the best ever. This unit was clean and well equipped. Since this location always has a breeze, not having air conditioning was never an issue. We would totally stay in this unit again without hesitation.
