Home Away from Home

This unit at the Maui Banyan is as good as the pictures. This unit has great elevator access (not all the buildings at the property have elevators) but the parking structure doesn't have an elevator. Luggage dollies and shopping carts are available at the front door to transport your stuff. The king-sized bed was perfect and the queen pull-out sofa was great for our daughter. Having two full bathrooms and a washer/dryer are big pluses. The little things were also there; some movies, books, all the dishes, utensils you could ask for as well as salt/pepper, spices and laundry/dish soap. Best of all was the in-room safe for valuables and the beach chairs, cooler, sunscreen, sand toys and boogie boards. The unit was very clean and well maintained. The kitchen appliances are a little old but everything works well. The balcony is narrow but I could still sit out at the table and relax with my book. Enjoyed the pool, hot tub and liked having the use of barbeques and table/chairs to have our dinners poolside. Location is perfect, very comfortable, casual, 2-minute drive to get to the main highway taking you to Lahaina (40 minutes) or Kahului (20 minutes), grocery stores nearby, Denny's or Moose's restaurant for breakfast, great little sandwich shop for takeout two minute walk away. If you want fancy restaurants drive five minutes to Wailea and eat there. All of our contact with the owners was great. We highly recommend this unit to everyone and we will be back.

Owner's Response: Mahalo for taking the time to post a review! We sincerely appreciate it! The kitchen appliances are on our list for our next visit to Maui, as we agree that they could be newer. The washer and drier are being replaced today! Mahalo!!
