This was a great stay; the resort was nice, budget friendly, and very accommodating to us. We arrived and determined our unit did not have a ceiling fan and the management company promptly brought us a fan to have throughout our stay. The unit had everything we needed for basic cooking. We would definitely stay here again!

1st time in Maui

We did not spend much time in the room, but the condo was nice and full kitchen had everything you could need to prepare meals, if you would choose to. Resort amenities were very nice and staff was super friendly. The view from this room was ok, but the resort has a great beach area. The parking lot next door had several food trucks each night, so dinner is super easy, with a variety of options!! I would stay again!!

We enjoyed our stay, the unit was a perfect size for a couple. The resort was beautiful and in a great location. The unit itself could use some upgrades- the curtains were difficult to open and close, the lighting above the bathroom sink was a little outdated. Overall great place.

Aloha Dina, We appreciate your review and feedback. We will look into your suggestions. We would have sent a Team member out to take a look at the curtains and assist you during your stay.

The resort itself is very nice. The actual studio needs some updating and some fresh paint. The studio doesn't have a dresser which would be a plus.
Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2019
Response from VrboOwner on 2 April 2020
Aloha, Thank you for your review. Thank you for your suggestions. We do have the end table, drawers in bathroom and shelves in the closet. We feel that a dresser might make it crowded. The owner likes the clean look of the new flooring and everything has been redone recently. Perhaps it is the traditional tropical look that you feel should be updated. This look works for the Hawaiiana relaxed feeling we hope that we remind guests they are on vacation. Best regards, Epic Realty LLC
