Anniversary Trip

The property is excellent! We saw turtles on the small beach in front of the property every night and whales from the balcony every morning and evening! There was a nice breeze coming in from the bay, so we never had to turn the AC on. A beautiful place with everything we needed!

Maui Memories

The property was centrally located. It allowed us to easily explore all areas of Maui. The unit was very clean & well maintained. It was perfect for 2 adults. We enjoyed the gorgoeous ocean view from our lanai as we watched for whales. We especially enjoyed our daily trips to the small beach area to watch the Hawaiian green sea turtles come onshore. We would definitely recommend staying here.

Perfect condo in a perfect location

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The hosts were very friendly and the communication was prompt. The condo was very comfortable, especially the bed! The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking some meals during our stay. The location is central to anything you wanted to see on the island with the bonus of being peaceful! Great pool and hot tub area and the outdoor grill area was so perfect! We can’t wait to come back! Thank you for the incredible vacation spot!

Paradise

Nice quiet place to relax and decompress. Owners are easy to work with and very quick to get back with you. Property is in great condition. Everything you need to cook with and wash clothes was provided. Was able to see whales and turtles almost everyday from the balcony. True paradise. Thank you for allowing us to visit the great state of Hawaii.

Beautiful views and amazing sunrises

If you are looking for a quiet place to get away from it all, this is your place. Very centrally located to the airport, Kihei, and Kaanapalli. Wake up to amazing sunrises, watch the turtles come up on the beach every night, and walk down the street to the very nice public beach. Kitchen was well equipped. Beach chairs, beach towels, and cooler were a great bonus. Bedroom was a little warm, but a ceiling fan and a portable fan were available. Enjoy!

Perfect down to the little details

This host did such a fantastic job with all the little details, wow! Everything to make coffee including creamer in the fridge and filters in the cabinet. Loved the gift of local coconut coffee—it was so good! Binoculars for wildlife watching. Multiple fans for the bedroom, as the condo did stay pretty warm if you are used to it cold. Enjoyed our stay, thank you guys!

Maui Gem

The condo is in a 4 story building adjacent to the ocean. It is comfortable, beautifully decorated and all necessities are provided. Also provided are beach chairs, beach towels and other items for your use. It sits over the pool and hot tub, which can be noisy, but quiet hours are enforced from 10pm to 8am. It is a great location within walking distance to a small beach, the aquarium, shopping, a couple of restaurants and whale watch harbor. Highly recommend Tante’s at the Maalaea Harbor. Their happy hour is great and the service, food and prices are great!
