The condo was wonderful, although there did not end up being a TV in the master bedroom. Any question or issue we had was responded to very quickly, and with too notch service! While we didn’t use all of the available gear for the beach, it was all there!! The shower in the master was such a treat and the over size stackable W/D made laundry for 4 quick and easy! Wish there had been a new guest book as the old one was full

Nice Thouhg Not Quite What We Expected

The property boasts beachfront however there is no beach or swimming at this complex. It is oceanfront and lovely views from the lani. The unit is beautiful and in close proximity to many popular destinations and restaurants. It’s very close to the harbor.

Amazing Stay

We really loved the unit and the complex. We loved having a washer and dryer in the unit and a/c. We enjoyed sitting out on the balcony and watching the sea turtles. The only suggestion would be to update the living room furniture. It looks a little dated but overall I would give our stay and A+!

Lovely Oceanfront Unit

Great being on the oceanfront and the mini-split in the bedroom makes for good sleeping. Comfortable furniture and bed. Internet works great. We couldn't get the TV to come on and gave up after several attempts at rebooting and using the reset button on the back of the TV. Really encourage the owner to sort this out. A new TV would probably solve the issue. All in all a winner unit, aside from the TV issue. Responsive property management team.

Great unit with well stocked kitchen

Our stay at #318 was super. Great layout and full of custom cabinets with storage everywhere. Well designed with fully stocked kitchen for cooks. Well appointed unit and would love to visit again. One small complaint was the internet service was really spotty and at times we were unable to work properly.

The View Says It All!

This is an excellent place to stay. This is the first time in this condo but we have stayed in this facility other times. Some recent updating was completed. The water pressure was ehhh but I think that is facility wide issue. Plenty of beach items in the condo to take on the beach. No issues with internet speed. Plenty of cookware and dishes. My only suggestion is to have a tray or something available to take food down to the grill area and bring back. The grounds are kept pristine and very well maintained. You will not be disappointed with this condo and the location!

No beach

Beach was non existent. Pictures did not show beach and beach wall had been completely destroyed. Would have been nice if someone had mentioned and/or shown this. Location was a great place to sit out at the table and watch the whale show, right in front of you.

Perfect Location

The property was clean and well maintained. The property well equipped and updated. The view from the balcony was the best. Whale watching all day from the balcony was as good as going on a whale watching tour. Within walking distance to a public beach that faces south where the usual northerly winds didn't make the water rough. It was great for snorkeling. We spotted sea turtles up close and all kinds of fish and other sea creatures. We couldn't have asked for a better location. The property centrally located on the island so it's a short drive to the airport, Lahaina, Kihei or Wailea

Great views right along the beach

First time on Maui. Beach has been washed away along the condos from the Hurricane of the summer of 2018. You can't access the beach right in front of the complex, but you can take a path to the complex next door to access the beach there. I've heard they have plans to reestablish the beach (bring in sand), Honu (Turtles) would swim by right off shore. Place was clean, beds comfortable. First time goin with VRBO would do it again no questions asked, had a great time!
