I loved seeing the ocean (over the bushes) from my unit. Never saw any turtles, though. This area was so quiet and peaceful and an easy drive to lots of spots on our list. The unit had absolutely everything that you could want or need and it was all neatly labeled and organized. The snorkel equipment was top quality and plenty to choose from. We used the beach chairs and umbrellas for a relaxing visit to a nearby beach. The unit was very clean and included some very nice extras. We had a little 100-legged visitor come out from under the sofa one night. Centipedes are fairly common in this area and we are accustomed to occasional scorpions finding their way into our home in Arizona. Also a cute kitten came calling on the patio. This was a very nice place to stay. I would definitely come back again if coming to Maui.
