Great location

We enjoyed the location and the bed was super comfortable. No great storage as there was no dresser to put clothes in so had to live out of suitcase. Could use a better beach umbrella as the one provided does not have a cork screw bottom and flies away in any wind.

Response from VrboOwner on 22 May 2022
I'm so glad you liked the new memory foam mattress. It is a personal favorite and we've had such good feedback about it. Regarding the umbrella, in Hawaii we use the bag that the umbrella comes in as a sand bag. We fill the bag with sand and use the loop to attach it to the umbrella and place it on the windward side and it holds the umbrella in heavy wind. As I mentioned we are waiting for the last pieces of furniture to be delivered. It's been months and we are still waiting. I am sorry you felt you that we deserved a negative review for these things. They will arrive soon. I hope you enjoyed your stay otherwise we would love to have you back again.

Great location and view

We enjoyed our stay in this 5th floor condo. It was clean, quiet and well stocked for all our cooking needs. Plenty of onsite parking and respecting neighbors. Beautiful yard and beachfront for easy access to get the toes in the ocean. Great place to stay to get anywhere on the island too! While on the deck, we had the Sunrise to your left and sunset to your right. We definitely would return!

Great stay in Maui

This was a wonderful jumping off point for our stay in Maui. The condo was clean and well equipped. Shawn was always available and very attentive. One thing to be aware of, the pool was a little smaller than what I expected based on the pictures in the listing but it was clean and great for a quick dip! Also, the beach in front of the condo is rocky but a short drive will get you to some very beautiful and fun beaches!
Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2022
Response from VrboOwner on 23 September 2022
I'm so happy you had a nice vacation. Please come back again soon. Just a little information about the beach for those who don't know. The beaches change all the time. We had a storm recently that carried away the sand which is why it was a little rocky. Little by little the sand will be deposited back on the beach. Some parts of the year it is a big wide sandy beach and after a south swell it will be much smaller. The big waves wash away the sand. It constantly ebbs and flows. Most of the time it's a pleasant sandy beach. It's always great for a stroll. The bonus after the storm is all the shells are exposed and deposited on the beach for all the collectors out there.

Perfect Place to Stay in Kihei!

The property was just as advertised. All pictures and descriptions were accurate. Shawn was responsive within minutes and addressed all questions and requests. Complex is safe, quiet and right on the ocean. We watched beautiful sunsets steps away from the beach or from our balcony. Plenty of free parking. Close to everything in Kihei. We enjoyed our stay and hated to leave. We would definitely stay here again.

The condo was as advertised, just like the photos. The host was great, made sure to provide recommendations on places to eat, and even provided a free coupon code for free grocery delivery to the condo. The complex was clean and quiet. The beach and pool were also nice. It was nice having a beach that we could just walk to, plus the condo had beach chairs, umbrellas, and a cooler, everything needed for a beach day! I would highly recommend this property to any couple looking for somewhere to stay in Maui.

Everything about the stay was excellent! As soon as we booked, Shawn sent an email with tips for our vacation activities. He responded to all messages promptly. The condo is great - view, comfort, etc. The kitchen is well-stocked - even had a blender! Location was away from the hustle of touristy section of S. Kihei but within short distance to restaurants, etc. We watched the sunset from the beach just yards from the condo. Would stay here again!

I enjoyed morning coffee on the balcony looking at the ocean. This condo was perfect for myself and my husband. Nicely decorated and fully stocked kitchen. The bed was comfortable and you have access to the balcony. The sink and mirrors are outside of the shower and toilet which is great. We used some of Shawn’s great recommendations for activities and dinners. A nice pool area and grounds. I would rent again
