This condo was absolutely perfect. It matched the photos exactly. We loved enjoying the breezes through the screen door and the lanai. Everything we needed to cook was on hand in the kitchen. The property management was responsive and friendly. The pool and barbecue areas were also spotless. We look forward to returning here!

The only improvement would be the cooking pans I ran out to Ross to buy a frying pan and I left it in unit hopefully the next guests use it. There was a centipede in my room and no matter how much i wiped the counters small ants invaded while cooking, but over all super comfortable and quiet and condo had everything we needed. Sofas are a little worn , i placed a sheet over them and we were fine. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Aloha Lgodoyster, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your review with us. We’re happy to hear that you found the condo comfortable, quiet, and well equipped for your stay. We appreciate your feedback regarding the cooking pans and the condition of the sofas, and we’ll be sure to share this with our team for review. We’re also sorry to hear about the centipede and ants during your stay. Being in a tropical environment, insects can occasionally make their way indoors, especially while cooking or during warmer and wetter weather, but we understand how frustrating this can be. Thank you again for choosing to stay with us, and we hope you enjoyed your time in Maui’s paradise. We would love to welcome you back again in the future! Warm Aloha, The VIP Team 🌺

A cozy place just right for us to stay while visiting family in town. Minutes away from groceries, beach, food trucks, and other attractions in town. Loved having all the beach chairs, boogie boards and other fun family activities like available for us to use during our stay. They even provided an electric pump, which we used to blow up our own floaties for our kids to use. Others on the property were friendly and greeted us when passing. Pool is just steps away from the gated back patio. View from the patio gives such paradise vibes, I wouldn’t mind working remotely from this place again!

Aloha Tricia, Mahalo for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear our condo was the perfect home base for your family while visiting loved ones in Kihei. It's great to know you enjoyed the convenient location, with the beach, grocery stores, food trucks, and local attractions all just minutes away. We're especially happy that the beach chairs, boogie boards, and other beach gear—including the electric pump for your floaties—helped make your family's time in Maui even more enjoyable. We're also glad you felt welcomed by the friendly community and were able to relax by the pool and take in the tropical views from the lanai. Hearing that you could picture yourself working remotely from here is one of the nicest compliments we could receive! It was truly a pleasure hosting you, and we look forward to welcoming you and your family back for another memorable Maui stay. Warm aloha, The VIP Team
