Heavenly Vacations Reviews

This was our first time in Maui so we were hoping that staying in Maalea was the right choice. For us (2 couples in their mid 50s) it was perfect. We found out that Maalea Harbor has the calmest waters of all of Maui and is located away from noisy streets or crowded beaches. Instead you have an immaculately maintained lawn & flowering shrubbery along with a beautiful ocean & mountain view. We really enjoyed the peace & quiet especially in the morning & evening. During the day we like to explore & found the Maalea location was ideal since it is centralized & never far from anything of interest. The topping on the cake was the accommodations which were very tastefully decorated with a nice personal touch. As mentioned by the other comments, the owners. They even had a Polynesian cook book with great recipes for local fish. When you rent this condo, you end up communicating with the owners who take a real interest in their guests.

Getting back to fish, if you time right, you can buy freshly caught fish in Lahaina from the sport fishing boats coming back from an outing. There are several boats that come in starting at around 12:00 to 1:00 pm daily. They filet if for you right on the spot. It will cost you half of Costco price or a third of what Safeway charges. Maalea Bay has fishing boats come in as well but you have to buy a whole fish (12-20 lb Mahi-mahi or 15 lb tunas). The captain will hoist a white or yellow fish flag to indicate they have a catch.

Tom:

Once again, a fantastic stay in Maui this past January. Your place is like a second home to us and we'll definitely be back again next January. You guys go the extra mile on your accomodations with a nice complete kitchen, great furnishings and of course the awesome views of the water. Thanks again, look forward to "seeing you" next year.

Tom & David !!!!!!!!!!!!!

What an amazing place you have ! I have been frequenting Maui for years for both business and pleasure and have not enjoyed any "home" as much as yours !

Also to be able to fall asleep at night listening to the ocean with those cool Maalaea breezes is just too good !

Thanks so much and I look forward to my next stay and sending my friends, family and clients your way !

Aloha,

Tom, we had a really rough trip trying to get to Maui, we were suppose to arrive at 2:00PM and didn't get in till 10:00PM, no luggage etc. What a blessing to have the keys for the condo waiting for us and everything as it was suppose to be at the condo. We loved the location and the peace and quiet. The grounds were beautiful and extremely well maintained. As we toured the different areas on Maui we agree this is the ideal location, away from the crowds and yet close to everything. We had a great time and would certainly consider staying here again. Thanks so much for sharing your home with us. Mahalo! Mel & Lou Ann

Tom, Your place and help were wonderful! It is centrally located to the shops, snorkeling, restaurants, night life etc. The reflections off the mirrors of the ocean and mountains were Great. We had our coffee every morning on the Lanai and enjoyed the sunrise. At night we liked to watch the surfers on the waves out by the cliffs in front of condo. Your place is well equipped with snorkel equippment, dishes, towels, beach items, and art work. It is quiet and comfortable. You have alot of nice DVD's and CD's. We were not disappointed. We enjoyed the largest Aquarium in North America a block away from condo. We got good use of your snorkel equipment. We snorkeled at Ulua Beach, Honolua Bay, Molokini crater and several times to Ahihi Keanau Reserve. We saw many beautiful fish, coral, turtles, etc. We liked going to Lahaia for the best shopping deals and fun night life. The art musuems there are OUTSTANDING!!! My husband did the sporting clay shooting off a mountain and got some nice pointers on shooting. We enjoyed our 25th anniversary next door at the 5 star restaurant! We have told many people about your place. Aloha, Michelle and Greg, Ft. Wayne, IN
