Great Oceanfront Condo with all the ammenities
Submitted: July 18, 2012
Stayed: July 2012
Spent 11 nights in this fully renovated condo. Every convenience is provided in the condo and it is lovely
Would definitely want to rent this unit again and have already passed along recommendations to friends.
Maalaea is a convenient location for touring all of Maui. Best of all you can avoid the traffic jams of tourists in Kaanapali. This location is breezier than other spots on the island. We liked that because it really keeps things cool and seems to lower the humidity. Never needed the A/C. It was a pleasure to leave the windows open and sleep to the sound of waves.
The balcony overlooks the lawn area and beach/ocean.You have views of surrounding islands and Haleakala (which has city lights at night). The beach is very usable for children. Plenty of sand to play in and the surf is reasonable. Our girls enjoyed boogie boarding. There is also a large tree that overhangs the sand and provides shade. There is a foot shower and full shower just off the beach as you enter the lawn area. The beach was never crowded. It seems to be used exclusively by condo residents.
The pool is warm and the kids used it after being in the ocean. There are two gas grills and two charcoal grills just outside the pool area. There are also dining tables on a paver patio. There are several chaise lounges provided for use on the lawn. The grounds of the condo are kept immaculate.
The condo itself is also kept immaculate. The flooring is all tile so it is easy to keep clean. The kitchen was stocked with staples which made it easy. All the kitchen appliances, dishes, pans, etc. It's a place you hate to leave behind.
There are several restaurants in walking distance near the Harbor. We ate at Beach Bums which has really good BBQ. There is also pizza, seafood and ice cream in the Harbor Shops. The Maui Ocean Center (aquarium) is here. The harbor has snorkel tour departures and a ferry to Lanai. Very convenient.
Nothing but good things in dealing with the owners. They kept us informed and provided a lot of useful information prior to our arrival and at the condo (Maui Revealed) Can't wait to go back!
