After having a planned cruise canceled only nine days prior to our sail date, we shifted our focus and decided on Maui instead! Having lived on the island for a few years, we were excited for the opportunity to go back for a visit and catch up with many friends.
We are so glad we found "Paradise Found"! With views from the lanai right to the beach and ocean, we enjoyed watching whales, having morning coffee or afternoon snacks, and spending evenings listening to the waves. With the close proximity to the beach, it's easy to go out for a walk on the beach, or to take advantage of the lawn chairs and lounges for some sunning in the afternoons.
Even though we only ate breakfasts or snacks in the unit, we could have easily cooked a full meal if we had chosen to do so. The kitchen is well-stocked with cooking and service items, spices, and paper goods. Also, having the Keurig is a great addition. We bought some additional flavored pods and enjoyed the variety supplied as well.
Frank and Sandy have supplied the unit well with towels (both bath and beach towels), beach chairs, beach umbrella, a safe, coolers, vacuum and broom for quick cleanups, a variety of soaps, a first aid kit, and tasteful decor. Two definite pluses are the assigned parking space in the secured underground garage and the full-size washer and dryer in the unit.
The central island location is beneficial for when activities are planned in a variety of locations on the island. We were able to get to Kihei, Wailea, Lahaina, and Kahului with minimal traffic.
We are already planning another visit to Maui within the next year or so and will definitely check to see if "Paradise Found" is available!
