This was the first time I rented a vacation home on line and I was a little worried that this might be at worst, a scam or if I would be getting a little grass hut when I got over there. Rest assured, I am a real person, who rented this home for 7 days, and it was everything that was advertised. I had no problem with the whole experience, it was delightful and enjoyable. This was the best of the 6 vacations in Maui I have ever had. Robin, the owner, was helpful with all the details and very professional. Things went so well that I didn’t need to contact her Maui manager contact for anything. Thanks Robin.
This property offers way more privacy than Hotels or Resorts. The 6-plex Townhouse we stayed at is the 1st of the 6 units you come to, just 20 steps to your cars parking under a car port. The Townhouse is at the end of the road, which means more privacy. All the photos & amenities on their web site are accurate; they even had boogie boards that were not mention. The AC is real quiet (remote outdoor type), you hardly know it is on. I am a Contractor and I would class this unit as a high end up scale unit. (The AC, lighting and controls, all counter tops, floors, cabinets and decor are high end) There was plenty of room for us (4 adults and 2 kids). There was plenty of water activity to view and enjoy from the lanai such as Surfers from morning to night, cruise ships, the Atlantis sub and night dinner cruises ships with their decks all lit up reflecting on the water at night. The beach is sandy with mixed small black lava rocks, no problem swimming and playing in the water even for the kids. The kids loved the pools too. The walk to down town Lahaina was too long for us. (our bad back) It was 1.4 miles from the unit to the Banyan tree. The only negative comment is the bedroom on the land side was noisy due to the Honoapillani Hwy on the other side of the trees and fence. If you are not use to vehicle noise keep your window closed or the noise could bother you. (It didn’t bother me because I had the bedroom on the water side. :) I would rent this home again and I have already told family and friends of this wonderful vacation spot.
