Michael is a wonderful host! Very communicative and has a wonderful condo. The view was spectacular and morning walks on the beach made our days! Saw a turtle every time. The condo was very clean and welcoming. Bed and pillows were very comfortable and the amenities were fantastic. Would absolutely stay here again and would recommend to anyone looking for a beautiful place in an excellent location!

Very clean and comfortable condo. Great view from the Lanai and close to the elevator and trash shoot. This unit features a washlet on the toilet and comes with many beach amenities such as beach chairs, pool towels, snorkeling gear, boogie boards, etc. Traditional coffee maker but it's a small hotel room style. AC is good and can get very cold if needed. Quiet unit. Slider from the living room and bedroom to the lanai. Pretty well stocked condo for cooking ammenities. Owner communicates pretty well and issues I found he quickly resolved. Just a note, you cannot see the sunset from the lanai during the winter months, FYI.

We loved our time at this rental near Kihei. Great view, super clean inside, nice pool and spa. Kihei has many good, reasonably priced restaurants to enjoy. Short drive each day for various snorkeling beaches. For sure would stay here again if we're lucky enough to come back to Maui.

This is centrally located in Kihei with Pool, Jacuzzi access . Everything is well thought and pantry, bathroom were cleaned and fully stuffed. Michael has provided snorkeling equipment, beach chair, surf boards, umbrellas etc in the closet near to bathroom. I would definitely recommend this property.

The view from the balcony was great and we spent a lot of time out there. Location was excellent, close to several lovely beaches and to restaurants. It was a decent space, but perhaps could use some sprucing up to bring it closer to a “luxury “ condo. Also, a regular size coffee maker would be very helpful and some potholders. All in all we enjoyed our stay here.

No complaints. Everything was perfect, kids enjoyed the pool and beach. Turtles right on the beach out back and the beach wasn’t over crowded like others.

We loved the view from the balcony. The space was perfect for the two of us. It was nice that you could easily drive to shops and restaurants in Kihei. We would stay here again.

Check-in was simple, with clear instructions emailed ahead of time. The living space and kitchen were the highlight of the condo and where the most remodeling work went into. Comfortable bed that was separated out from the living space which gave my wife time to rest when I was awake. Like other guests have mentioned there are some touch ups that could be adressed in the bathroom space but nothing bad. There are 3 snorkel sets there (one is a kids set), beach umbrella and two chairs along with beach towels. There was also a playpen for the under 2 years old crowd. Overall the location if this rental is perfect as its centrally located from the airport, west Maui and south Maui beaches. If you get the chance take the snorkel gear to La Parouse

This unit has everything and over kill. The host might have thought everything that the guests need to stay here comfortably. Literally you can move in to live here for good. Best host ever.

Accommodations, Ambience and Area were all wonderful. Communication was clear and detailed from reserving to arrival. Would definitely stay here again. A fresh coat of paint could be beneficial, but would not be a deterrent from staying again. Don M

Nice condo had everything we needed. Great view out to the ocean. Easy access (by car) to great beaches and restaurants.

The management was very responsive and helpful. The location was great, too. Very convenient access to the beach, and very nice views. The only suggestion I have is to provide a better and larger coffee pot. Overall we really enjoyed the place.
