Condo #308 was and included everything you could wish for! My daughter (5) and I traveled alone. We stayed for 9 days in July/August. Toni/Jim were wonderful during the booking process (and during our stay): Quick responses, ample information, kind, patient and they extended a deal they had offered the week before I booked. The condo was beautifully remodeled, furniture and linens clean and in excellent shape. The condo layout worked well for me to read/watch TV while my daughter was sleeping. This was by far the best equipped vacation rental I have ever stayed in: I didn’t have to pack shampoo, body lotion and soap (no shower gel). I also found female hygiene products, cotton swaps, tissues and lots of toilet paper. Bed was very comfortable, shower had good water pressure, A/C and fan (bedroom) worked very well and the place was spacious for my little one to spread her toys. We received 4 sets of towels (bath sheet, hand towel and wash cloth). Kitchen included spices, every utensil and tool you could ask for, Ziploc bags, tupperware, trash bags, paper towel, sponge, aluminum foil, even coffee + filters were provided. Upon arrival we found drinking water in the fridge. Beach towels, body boards, beach chairs (all new), cooler and umbrella were provided. We left our sand toys behind. The condo is ideally located on the 3rd floor, next to the staircase, only steps from parking lot (helps w/ grocery shopping) but also close to pool and beach – easy to walk for kids. Pool was cleaned every morning, grounds were impeccably maintained. We experienced no noise or nuisances by other guests. In the night, it was lovely to sit in the comfy armchairs on the lanai and listen to the waves. We had a short interruption by the property management (they checked for a leak in the condo under us). They communicated clearly and with the utmost respect. The next day, Toni/Jim sent us a splendid gift basket (absolutely not necessary). We rented a car to get around. I don’t think Kihei would have worked for us without it. The city is perfectly located in between the cities wanted to visit – Paia, Wailea, Lahaina (a bit further) and a short drive from OGG. Insider tip: Get your poke fill at Foodlands Grocery Store. Incredible selection that you can taste before you buy. So good. My daughter loved Coconut’s Fish Cafe and Ono Gelato. The Sugar Museum was underwhelming. Highly recommend this condo and Sugar Beach Resort! Would love to return one day…
