Awesome stay
The unit is as advertised, with no exceptions, so no need to repeat that. Very nice. No problems. Host Joanne was great. This might be the nicest unit in the complex, being corner and ground floor, and the complex is also really nice. Great views, with one small caveat: there’s a hedge on the right side of the property that obstructs some of the view to the west. The sun rises directly over Haleakala crater in the morning, as viewed from the condo patio. Saw hundreds, maybe thousands of whales from the unit’s patio in Jan 2024: amazing! Went on a whale watch with Trilogy and saw so many whales!!! The beach is right across the lawn; it’s small, but there were as many as 10 turtles on the beach every day or evening. The location is very convenient: 15-30min drive to just about everything, and the harbor where boat trips leave is just a few blocks away. You’ll get a couple of cryptic emails from Betterstay LLC; we were suspicious of these at first, but it’s the management company; they ask you to install an app called DACK, which we saw of no value, so no need to install it. There are 2 nice beach chairs, 3 sets of decent snorkel equipment and an umbrella (it was too windy for the umbrella and snorkeling anywhere, in Jan 2024). Great experience!
