Barbara, Thank you so much for renting us your condo. We spent 5 wonderful days there, and I have to say we loved every moment. When we first pulled up to the building we both kinda thought 'oh, oh' but when we opened the door, we both started jumping around with excitement. The lanai and view were amazing. The fouton wasn't the best, but I insisted on sleeping there so I could fall asleep to the sound of the waves every night (I put the mattress on the floor). I got up every morning and sat on the comfortable lanai lounge chair and wrote in my journal as the sun rose. The condo was very well stocked - there was nothing we wanted that you didn't have. The BBQ and pool area were great too. After we arrived there, we found your Maui Revealed book and in it is warned against staying in Ma'alaea...why, I don't know. It's centrally loacted, and I liked feeling away from it all, unlike all the other touristy towns on the island. We took day trips each day -2 to the South Coast, one to the NW side and Iao valley, and one day to Hana. I hightly recommend the drive to Hana, it's absolutely amazing. We ate twice at the restaurant downstairs - DELICIOUS food, excellent service and amazing view. Again, thanks so much for making my vacation a wonderful one. I definately want to return to your condo one day.
A gem!

We absolutely LOVED our stay at Barbara's condo. We have stayed in many vrbo's around the country, and Barbara has done a fantastic job keeping the place well-stocked with the "little things" most places are missing. The oceanfront balcony was amazing, as we spent most of our time there admiring the sunrises or reading a book from the vast library. The location is central to all activities on the island, and we truly put that to the test!
Thank you so much for a fantastic stay!

We stayed in Barbara's condo from mid-January through the first week in March. This was the third year in a row we have rented from her, and cannot recommend her highly enough. The Milowai is situated in a quiet area, away from the hustle and bustle and this allows for total relaxation. We love the tradewinds that blow through and cool things off. Being located right beside the water is priceless, and watching the whales is one of our favorite things to do. Ma'alaea is centrally located and is only minutes from wherever you need to go. Barbara is very accommodating and wants to be certain you have everything you need for your vacation, and she is an absolute delight. We highly recommend renting from her!!!

Aloha Barbara-
Just wanted to send a quick note to let you know how much we enjoyed our stay at Milowai!! Your condo was perfect for us and we really appreciated the fact that it was stocked with paper products and dish/laundry soaps, etc. The view was awesome. We will definitely keep your condo on the list for our next visit to beautiful Maui.
Aloha,
Angela

We enjoyed a visit to Barbara's condo on Maui Nov 9-17, 2008. This was our first visit to Maui and it was just perfect. We walked in the door and immediately felt at home. Barbara is the best hostess ever, giving savvy tips and directions to the sights and stocking the condo with necessities and more. The condo location puts everything in easy reach for daytrips - land or sea! We certainly hope to come back soon. Thanks Barbara!

What a wonderful accomodation you have for your guests! Even though the Milowai Condo Units are a little older, it is very well taken care of and #205 was well stocked with all the comforts and staples of home. Nice! We spent a lot of time on the lanai, enjoyed our morning coffee and the view. In the 14 days we were in Maui we thoroughly enjoyed this retreat of peace and quiet. The view of the bay is sectacular and we were located very close to the surf; the sunrise's are awesome! The small area of grass was like velvet to our barefeet. Maalaea Bay is centrally located, yet not over crowded. It is very close to The Maui Aquarium and is a must-see for all ages. The price of groceries was a big shock! There are all varities of places to eat out,from fast food to affordable resturants. Many coupons are available in free magazines, and the local farmer's markets are great. We loved seeing the dolphins on a boat excursion. We also discovered with the washer and dryer avaiable, we packed too much. It's our intention to return to Maui next year and Barbara's Unit #205. Mahalo Barbara. Aloha!

Our Maui vacation was wonderful! The condo was everything that Barbara had said and more. The view of the ocean from the lanai was breathtaking, and we will remember the sunsets forever. My husband and I actually slept on the pull-out couch so that we could listen to the waves, and our daughter took the bedroom. The condo was stocked with everything we needed, including supplies for the beach. We were close to the harbor and ended up taking a snorkel cruise to Molokini -- great trip. I am already plotting my next trip to Maui and we will most certainly try to stay in the same place.

I spent 10 glorious days in Maui with my adult children and we had a fabulous time! My days started with watching the sun rise and ended with hearing the waves on the shoreline just 50 feet from the condo. The view from our room was spectacular and we all enjoyed our morning coffee on the lanai watching the whales and turtles in the bay. In addition to a good dose of beachtime, we spent time snorkeling, whalewatching, day trip to Hana (must do!), an evening Luau, trip up to watch the sunrise on Haleakala. At 10,000 feet, my son proposed to his girlfriend - what a special time! My children took surfing lessons, kiteboarding lessons and toured the local winery. We loved staying at the condo. It was truly our home away from home. It had everything we needed (and then some!) We enjoyed the nearby restaurants with sensational seafood and made good use of the barbecue many evenings. Barbara and Chris had emailed us with information on "things to do and see" which was so very helpful. We all had a great time and look forward to our next visit. Maui is truly a paradise!

My husband and I stayed at Barbara's condo from December 6th to the 20th of 2007. We had a wonderful time. The view, location, the condo itself, with the washer & dryer, full kitchen, comfortable queen size bed--were all we could of hoped for. And the unbelivable price were just amazing... We appreciated all the insight to the beautiful island and did alot of wonderful-once in a lifetime- things. But also enjoyed our quiet time on the lanai, wathing sea turtles and whales playing in the ocean. Our time there will need to carry us until we return--as we are alredy looking forward to it. Thank you for sharing your home with us. Debbie & Bill from Middleport, NY
