The view was spectacular, beautiful sunsets and short walk to the beach. The condo was clean and all amenities and supplies necessary. Especially liked all the beach equipment. It came in really handy. There were many special touches that made this the perfect stay

It took a while for the air conditioning units to cool down the condo. The sun heats up the patio and it radiates into the unit making it rather warm. We kept curtains drawn when away to minimize the heat.

The views are very nice from the terrace or the living room. Appreciated that there was AC.

The rest of the apartment was a bit too dark for my taste.

The view was fantastic.

Some items in the condo were dated. The coffee maker needs to be updated to a K-cup style, the screen door needs adjusting so it doesn't slam shut on you, and the refrigerator handle is cracked. Also, we stayed 9 days, but were only given one small bar of soap.

The hosts have a manual of rules, guidance, acrivities, etc. that is helpful for getting oriented. There's a designated parking space for the unit. The bed was relatively comfortable and the drive to Wailea and the nicer parts of Kihei wasn't too far. The window air conditioner and fan worked well and kept the place cool.

The property was advertised as a "gorgeous beachfront condo." We had not been to Maui previously and didn't know one part of Kihei from another. The property is in northern Kihei in an area that is known for older condos and industrial areas. The "beachfront" is a significant walk across a grassy field and turned out to be a rocky beach with brown water. The good snorkeling and activity beaches in the area are further south, towards central and southern Kihei and Wailea. There was very little to do within walking distance of the unit and we drove to all of our activities. Unfortunately the place is pretty dated, the floors were not clean, and we found little bugs throughout the unit, even though we kept no food at the unit and constantly took out the trash. The screen door has a mind of its own and will loudly slam closed if you don't gently close it each time. There is one tiny bar of hand soap in the bathroom for however long you're there. I understand it's only supposed to last a day or so, but for $450 per night, I think having adequate soap and shampoo is a fairly basic expectation. The exhaust fan in the bathroom is on its last leg and sounds like it may die at any time. There is no key for the front door. You unlock it with the last four digits of your phone number, which was shared in the informative email from the property management company. What was not shared was how to lock the door. It's just pressing a simple button from the outside, but we didn't know and had to ask someone. So there's no front door key — which some may view as a convenience — and your have to baby the screen door. Mind you, our stay wasn't unpleasant. At the end of the day, we were in a condo on Maui just a stone's throw from the beach. The issue we had came from missed expectations. We got married on our trip and this was also our honeymoon.
