A great unit tucked right in the heart of Maui’s prettiest area. I have a feeling this renovated unit is nicer than its surrounding neighbors. Price was great for what you get, unit was clean, the grounds are great and super relaxing. The walls are a little thin, so expect some noise bleed. Lots of families.
The AC unit doesn’t blast. That’s ok. It was pretty hot during my most recent trip and it was fine. Combine it with the overhead ceiling fan and you’ll do great. It’s a tropical island.
Front desk closed at 7pm (this may have been earlier than usual, non-pandemic hours). One night my card was zapped and I had to use the security phone outside the office to call for help. They met me at my room after a few minutes and let me in. Not as convenient as a 24 hour front desk but not the worst.
The restaurant by the lobby has great drinks, not so great food. The other restaurant—The Gazebo—is legendary (a little overrated to be honest but a must try) and RIGHT THERE on the grounds.
Thanks to COVID, there was a possible issue with the check-in date. Susan (the host) asked if I could delay a day due to back up with the cleaning crew. I could not, and Susan set up a plan B for me if we needed it, but we agreed to stay strong and see if the situation resolved itself. It did and everything worked out. Communication was prompt, honest, and polite. Great host.
