We were pleasantly impressed with this condo for our stay in Maui. It seemed very clean and very well cared for. Family of ours were in another unit that had better views, but was much more outdated and we personally liked the carpet in this unit.
The kitchen was very well stocked with everything we needed and from the balcony you have nice views of the ocean and grounds. At least at our time of year, end of October, you can JUST not see the sunset from the balcony. I’m sure this changes at other times of the year. Just go down to the pool or huge lawn or the ocean to watch the sunset 😊
The grounds are very well cared for, the grass is so perfect it looks fake! There are 6 BBQ’s and 3 picnic tables that are conveniently located very close to this unit due to the layout of the elevator and walkways.
The pool and hot tub are nice, though it is annoying that you need a key to get out as well as into the pool area... but I understand.
There is shuffle board, putting, and tennis that you can play for free I believe. We played shuffle board and at least that was free. There is also an area in the pool area where you can rent SUP boards and people take them out right there at the beach there.
As for the beach, it doesn’t have much “sandy” area to lay a towel, but there is enough for walking most of the time. You can also lay your towel on the grass which is just up from the sand. As for swimming in the ocean, it’s not the best... it seems a little dirty and it has good sized lose coral you have to walk on when in the water. We did it, but it’s best to go to other beaches. It is also VERY windy... but that makes for great windsurfer and kiteboarding watching. In the morning it is calm and good for SUPs.
As for location, we enjoyed the location. We were able to walk to Miss Phat Sushi, Nalu’s grill, and the 4th Friday market! It’s not the most pleasant walks, but it works.
All in all, we would stay here again. One big complaint I had was that the gym doesn’t open till 9AM... I enjoy working out a little at least a couple times a week and it wasn’t possible for me at that time... when you come from the mainland, 9AM is SUPER late...
Also, the door needs to be pulled shut or it WILL NOT latch!! Even if it looks closed, it isn’t. It is self locking so it could be very easy to accidentally leave the condo open if you don’t check, thinking it locked itself...
