The place was awesome and as advertised. First off, the lanai was great. The furniture on the lanai was perfect. The view was good, but there was a big tree in the way blocking the sunset, but it wasn't that big of a deal. The lanai also had a big metal box for all the beach stuff. The place had a ton of beach stuff like beach chairs, umbrella, snorkels for 2 adults and beach mats. Some of the beach items were a little worn, but were still usable. There were also items for floating, and kids (beach toys, sand castle building stuff), but we didn't use it.
Inside, everything was great and clean. The bed was comfortable, and the bedroom and living room had huge windows to allow a lot of light in. It also had blackout curtains, which was AWESOME. As someone who is easily woken up by light, it was perfect. I did wish there was some type of sheer curtains to allow light in with some privacy, but we made it work. The laundry machines in the unit were super nice to have, and the bathroom was nice. The kitchen was well lit and nice for cooking. They have most major appliances (minus a rice cooker), with plenty of room for prep. The living room furniture was nice and comfortable. I noticed a pull out bed in the sofa, but I did not try it out. The AC is in the living room area, and saved us a couple of nights. The front door has a screen you can pull down and it was really nice to use for a cross breeze.
The location was great! The grounds were well maintained. It was nice to have the communal BBQ not that far from the door. Parking was good. At first it was annoying to have to backtrack to the parking lot in order to get to the beach, but we got used to it. Getting to Kam 2 took less than 3 minutes, from door to beach. Kam 2 was never crowded, which was amazing. We would go there for our beach time, and when we watched the sunset. Down the street, less than 5 minutes of walking led to a strip mall which was nice. Down the highway (inland highway) was the Maui Brewing company. That place was awesome. I highly suggest it!
The owners were great. They were responsive and quick to get back to us if we had any questions. We would recommend this place to any of our friends, and when we come back, we definitely will consider this place if we were staying in the area. Thank you so much for sharing your place!
