Property was just as described. Check in was quick. Know that you will have to pay for parking ($3.55/day). There is a surface lot out front of the property and a garage just North of the surface lot. If you have a large vehicle, I suggest calling ahead and requesting the surface lot as the garage is low and spots are small. It’s VERY cheap compared to everywhere else or using Uber.
Bed was comfortable and the balcony was a nice spot to eat breakfast each morning. Beach next to the property was nice and sunset was great each night. Pool and hot tub are also nice spot to chill each evening. There were beach chairs, and umbrella and boogie boards in the closet. Fridge with ice maker, oven/cooktop, and pots/pans utensils in the kitchen.
Lahaina is a quick walk from the property to good restaurants (Paia and Down the Hatch - get the Lava Lava Shrimp cocktail) and tourist shopping. Also, you can walk to the harbor if you book a whale watching or snorkel trip through one of the charters in the Lahaina harbor.
My wife and I felt like Lahaina was the perfect place to stay as you have quick access to good beaches (short drive to Ka'anapali/Black Rock beach – park in Whalers Village) a bit longer to the south beaches. If you've never been to Maui, the roads are mostly 2-lane and 35-45mph so just know some destinations are 40-50m away but none of them are traffic, stress filled drives. Just relax and have a good time.
We rented Snorkel gear locally and just went off the beaches. Baby Beach behind Safeway has a sunken dock which a local said was a good spot and it is. Water was pretty clear and saw lots of fish and turtles. Just check the ‘snorkel report’ each morning for a good summary of where to go.
Would definitely stay here again if we ever come back. It was perfect for a couple, and you can make breakfast/lunch/dinner if you don't want to eat out each day. There is a Wal-Mart and Costco next to the airport (someone told me they prepurchase items online and scheduled pick up 30-40m after their plane landed - which is a great idea - no need to shop in a strange store for groceries).
