Our stay was excellent and great if you have a car.
The garden view was a bit misleading as it is a row of trees. Also the BBQs are communal by the pool.
Regardless we had a wonderful stay.

Reviewer Comments:
My husband and I came to Maui to celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary. We wanted something close to the beach, reasonably priced, and it had to have good reviews. This place hit all of those requirements on target and during our stay we first-hand experienced the accommodations of the host. From supplying us with starter items like toiletries, and laundry detergent, to giving clear instructions upon arrival, and being very communicative with us, we wish we had more stars to give. We both said when we come back to Maui we need to stay here again.

Disliked: Amenities
The condo in beach front, not the unit. Amenities were not clean around the condo. The apartment is old but decently furnished. Full of rules and the warnings sounds like they are threatening you if you fail to follow them.
The place is far from any place. Nothing is walking distante.
Loved staying at this beautiful rental. Great location between West and South Maui. An easy 15 min from the airport, too. Condo had everything, even bottles of sunscreen that we used. Rent snorkel equipment and chairs nearby at Boss Frog’s. There is a nearby beach on the same road as condo that we walked to a few times. Take the road toward West Maui and stop at the “lighthouse” on left to watch for whales and see the sunset. Bed as comfortable and everything needed in condo. I took one star off for the “secluded garden view” in the name and photo. In reality, you look out on a few scraggly trees that divide this property from the next. But no worries, you aren’t home much. We ate at the pizza place nearby which was yummy. Loved this location! Book it for your next vacation!

Apartment was clean and the community was safe. Communication via the app and multiple emails was helpful and the payment process with smooth. I would classify the condo as mid scale not necessarily low or high end. Netflix and Amazon prime were available. The one thing to note is the sliding partition between the bedroom and living room area doesn't block any noise. So if you are planning to watch movies and have children sleeping in the other room, you will need to bring Bluetooth headphones to connect to the TV. Luckily we had some and were able to share.

We had a wonderful stay at this property. It's right on a quiet stretch of beach and out of the more touristy areas. The building was 1970's but the inside of the unit was modern, clean and very comfortable. This was the first time we have booked with VRBO and it was generally a pretty positive experience, The only thing I would recommend is a little more explanation in the welcome packet so that new folks like us know what to do. We thought there would be a reception desk, thankfully the caretakers were able to explain about getting into the lockbox, which was in the welcome packet, but not emphasized for those who are new to the system. Just a thought. Other than that we had a great time and enjoyed the unit thoroughly.

Wir entschuldigen uns für den Vorfall mit dem Aufzug, aber wir werden dies notieren und an das Resort weiterleiten. Möglicherweise haben sie Pläne, zu einem späteren Zeitpunkt einen Aufzug hinzuzufügen, was für alle Wohnungseigentümer und zukünftige Gäste sehr schön wäre. Wir hoffen trotzdem, dass Sie einen großartigen Urlaub hatten, und freuen uns darauf, Sie in Zukunft wieder zu beherbergen!

Reviewer Comments:
The water was shut off for 8 hours a day for almost our entire stay. There are signs saying to use the park access to the beach due to erosion on the condo entrance. Just FYI, there’s also a hobo camp at the entrance to the beach off that park. It’s uncomfortable to walk through. And on more than one occurrence, we saw people looking to break into cars with flash lights. The condo itself was clean and nice. Good location on the island otherwise. If safety isn’t a concern for you, stay here.
The apartment and amenities is great. The location is close to Kihei which is nice because of the restaurants and other amenities.
