We were a group of 6, us parents, 2 adult daughters, our son in law and 17 yo grandson. We looked forward to our trip for months, and truly wanted to love the place. We did gather from the home description that this was not a "resort" type destination but we were ready to enjoy the reported views, charm and laid back qualities of the home.
The lot is large and oceanfront with a well kept lawn area. The downstairs master is cramped and dark with a small obscured slider that opens onto a small concrete patio, it is very difficult to open/close. The other downstairs bedroom was similarly small and dark, and it's small window looks directly onto the large eyesore condemned properties next door. Sadly, people are living there.
The upstairs area has a large master bedroom with 4 widely spaced small windows. The master bath is small and the tub/shower is rusty and uninviting. Window coverings throughout were in disrepair and couches were stained. The refrigerator does not keep contents cold. The slider off the upstairs kitchen is also very difficult to open/close. There is one couch upstairs and one downstairs. We wanted a place that would allow all 6 of us to gather together comfortably as well as provide privacy and rest.
We tried to make the best of it but ultimately, and despite the significant unanticipated expense, we could not allow ourselves to spend our limited and hard earned vacation time in this home and left after our 2nd night. We found another property to rent that was well maintained, comfortable and accommodating and it saved our vacation.
If all you want is a bare bones home base to enjoy Maui from this may be serviceable.
