Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: As with all year’s past, This was a wonderful stay. So close to the ocean and pool with spectacular views all day long. All that we could ask for in a Maui Vacation. These units are just feet away from the water without the resort facility feel. I highly recommend these if you’re not looking for the glitz of a fancy resort. Come experience the real feel of Maui. Mahalo
