Great Property

The location is excellent, and the views are amazing. The host was easy to work with, and the trip was amazing. The AC unit is pretty loud, but we were able to open the windows after the first day, so we didn't need it.

Wonderful Condo

This condo was wonderful and the views were amazing! We saw the turtles every day on the rocks. The sunrise and sunsets were beautiful! The condo was well stocked and comfortable. We enjoyed our time there.

Amazing view!

The outdoor furniture worked great and loved the pull down shade to filter the sun when needed. We saw a lot of turtles just from our lanai and the loved the view. It could use more cups and glasses but the set up and the location of the condo are great. We would stay there again.

Paradise

Cleanest property we’ve ever stayed at. View of the ocean is beautiful, lots of turtles always swimming around. Good central location - 15 to 20 minute drive from several popular areas (Kihei, Lahaina, Kahului). Hosts checked in on us a few times and were quick to respond to questions. Definitely recommend this property.

Very clean, excellent location, nice layout, fully equipped.

We had a great stay. Easy to locate, very comfortable. The management company had identified an issue before our arrival, notified us of the problem, and quickly resolved it. We intend to stay here again. I would caution that there are a few (5) stairs to navigate so that individuals who are unable to do so are not caught unaware.

Great spot right on the water

This condo was perfect for our trip. Clean, comfortable, and with everything we needed. The lanai sits just above the water and we loved watching the many turtles swimming. The location is a bit secluded and therefor without the busy traffic found in other areas. But it's also centrally located and easy to navigate to shopping and areas of interest. This one is a gem.

Excellent Condo

We were scheduled to arrive in Maui late on a Sat evening and Eve was so helpful in proactively contacting us to ensure we were going to be comfortable for checkin. Great location, truly saw more than 30 whales from Lanai first day. Condo is well appointed, great for cooking, comfortable furniture, terrific ventilation for cooling down, and awesome hosts. We would highly recommend!

Amazing View Right on the Water

This is a great centrally-located spot in a quiet area. You can’t beat the view or be closer to the water. The beach nearby is quiet, but still a great beach. We loved watching turtles swimming right from the balcony! The description and pictures are exactly right. It’s a smaller condo, but perfect for two people that just need a home base and place to sleep. We made several meals here. The bed is very comfortable! Happy with our decision to stay here!

Beautiful Views -- Convenient Central Location -- Gracious Management

We very much enjoyed the oceanfront location and views, and the gentle breezes on the lanai. The condo was comfortably furnished and generously stocked, with wonderful treats added by the owner for our enjoyment. She answered all our concerns promptly, and made our entry and departure very easy. The condo location made all parts of the island easily accessible. The constant winds from the North kept the unit cool and comfortable. The harbor and its restaurants were within easy walking distance. It was a wonderful stay.

Love this place!!!

We were only able to stay overnight (needed a spot to sleep between arriving and sailing excursion at the harbor at 0-dark-hundred the next am). But we loved it!! So comfy. So many personal touches. The bed and pillows were so so so comfortable!! We were only there for 10 hours, but Eve checked in on us to make sure everything was great. I consider myself lucky, and this place was perfect!!! I’ve been to Maui many times - I would definitely stay here again (or anywhere that Eve hosts).

Beautiful View

We chose this property because it was sort of "in the middle" and was a reasonable driving distance to everything we wanted to do on the island. Little did we know that the view would be so incredible and we would get to watch turtles feeding right below us every afternoon. We attempted the AC with the fan the first night, but quickly realized that opening all the windows was the way to go because there is such a great cross-breeze that flows through the unit. Overall, we really enjoyed staying here!

Absolutely Stunning

When we arrived, we walked straight to the lanai. I had to catch my breath when I looked out over the water! It was perfect. Sea turtles swimming, waves, surf, and the Island breeze all caught me by surprise. This place was perfect in every way. Eve was a very gracious host who went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable (understatement). Sunrise from the lanai was stunning. We stayed five days- next time I will book ten! Just WOW! April 15 through 19.

Beautiful Views and Convenience

This condo was a lovely place to end our Hawaiian vacation. The views from the lanai were gorgeous, and the space was well-kept and clean. Our only issue was that the air conditioner was in the living area, so we positioned fans to try to get cool air in the bedroom. I think the temperature was a little unseasonably warm while we were on the island, but it certainly didn't ruin our time. Thanks so much, Eve!

Lovely whale watching getaway

Just home from a lovely week in Maui. The condo is exactly as described with the lanai offering heavenly views of the stars, the sunrise, sea turtles, and of course, the whales. We saw them almost non stop. They are visible to the eye, but bring your binoculars to get an even better view. The location is super convenient as we stopped at Costco and purchased items on our way from the airport, cooking a couple of meals on the nice Weber grills by the pool. We walked to the harbor multiple times to shop, eat, and catch a couple of tours. Excellent meals at Tante (catch happy hour for great prices) and Seascape. Eve was great, checking in on us occasionally. I would definitely stay here again. Mahalo to the hosts!

Beautiful views, turtles, and relaxing beaches…

My wife and I recently stayed six days at the property and hated to leave. When we stay at a property, the number one thing we’re looking for is that the property is as it was described, the location is as we expected, and it’s easy to get into the property. This property met all those requirements and more! When we did have a question, the owner was super responsive and could either be contacted through the vacation app or her personal cell phone. The property owners also gave us some great recommendations on things to do when we were in town, and they were spot on. We would return to this great property in a minute. The views are amazing every day and once you get the timing down, you can stand on your balcony and watch 10 or 15 turtles work the shallow areas of the bay. Just a couple of hundred yards down the street is a beautiful sandy beach, and once you do a little exploring there you’re sure to discover a perfect spot that either has some people around, or can make you feel like you’re all by yourself. We would highly recommend this property.

Amazing Anniversary Stay

My wife and I celebrated our 25th Wedding Anniversary during our stay and we could not have had a better experience. The location is 15-20 minutes from the busier towns and nightlife, but we were always excited to get back to our quiet corner of the island. We utilized the snorkel gear on days we were not out on some other amazing adventure. The place has enough amenities allowing us to cook many meals and enjoy dinners on the lanai with it’s spectacular view of the ocean. We often lost count of the numbers of turtles we saw in the mornings and evenings. We would not hesitate to stay here again when we return to Maui. Eve was a fantastic communicator, keeping us updated on inclement weather one evening and checked on us halfway through our stay for any needs etc. If you are looking for a bit of peace and serenity away from other tourists, we highly recommend staying here! Thanks again, Eve! Mahalo!

Great central location

Nice and clean condo. Beautiful ocean views. Central to all the activities we had planned. Easy access to condo and easy parking. A couple things I’d like to mention. The air conditioner is a small window unit at the front of the condo. The bedroom is in the back. It did get quite hot at night. We had to leave it on with a fan blowing toward the bedroom. To keep that room cool. July is hot in Hawaii. Other times of the year probably would not be an issue. The mattress was very uncomfortable. It needs replacing. It has dips on each side. I personally feel a good night sleep is most important. This is a nice condo so was surprised with the condition of the mattress. I still recommend this condo. If the mattress was replaced, I’d stay there again.

Great getaway!

Thank you for sharing this great condo with us! The location right on the beach was beautiful. Every morning we would get up early and drink our coffee on the balcony and watched the sun rise over the Haleakala ridge lines. What a great way to begin the day! We were very lucky to see whales every day with the binoculars that you folks provided.The condo was very well stocked and clean. We especially liked the all in one washer/dryer. We are locals from the island of Oahu and find this beautiful place as a home away from home. We will definitely come back here. Jim the owner, as we met coming in, is very friendly. Oh by the way, we were greeted with chocolates on the bed and wine in the fridge. How great was that!!!!Again a big Mahalo to you and A Hui Hou....(Thank you and till we meet again)Mike & Roxanne Ps. We did not have to ask for our deposit , they had it back to us in a couple of days?

Made Memories in Maui

Property was in the perfect location. It was in a quiet serene area with breath taking views away from the tourist hotels. My family and I made wonderful memories this week on our snorkeling and scuba trips. We also saw sunrise at Haleakala and sunset at Kahekili Beach. It was awesome!
