The condo was nice. The view was great. We went in February and were able to watch the whales every day from our balcony and we were able to watch the sunset from the balcony each evening as well.
Inside of the condo was nice enough. There was no A/C (as is the case with many condos in Maui), but there was enough of a breeze that we were able to sleep well. The bed was comfortable, but a little slanty on one side. There was also no dresser available for use. Less than half the closet is available for tenant use and there is an armoire, but in the armoire are extra pillows and linens. And while that’s nice, there wasn’t much room to put our clothes. Living out of suitcases for two weeks wasn’t ideal but we made it work. Also, we didn’t walk around with our shoes off because the floors were a little sticky (the way many hotel floors are).
The kitchen had much of what we needed during our stay from a limited number of spices, dishwasher detergent, laundry detergent, tupperware, plastic wrap, extra paper towels, etc. We had a bit of an ant problem in the kitchen but we were able to figure out where they were coming from a block it off a bit while we were there.
The location of this property is perfect. It was about 1/4 mile from Honokowai Beach Park (good for families with small children with some shallows that are almost completely protected by a reef) and about 3/4 of a mile to Pohaku Beach Park (good for surfing but with calm shallows). The neighborhood is much quieter than further south near all the resorts but close enough that all of those activities were convenient.
Overall, our stay was great and we definitely recommend this condo. The property managers made everything super easy from check in to check out. Frequent emails made it so you never had to ask questions.
