The location on the central isthmus of the island was convenient to getting anywhere on Maui. Sugar beach is in the backyard, and it was a nice, clean, quiet beach with good swimming. We stayed in #601, one bedroom, two bath, full kitchen, and it was great. The unit we rented was clean and well-maintained. The surrounding area seemed very safe. This was a great place if you don't want the crowds and hassle of the resorts. We never used the pool (hey, you are right on the beach) but it looked nice. Pay laundry facilities on each floor. Outdoor shower for clean up after beach swimming. Patio area with outdoor grills, tables, chairs, umbrellas, and kids toys.

Pros: location is within 5 mins of beaches, walkable to cafes. Pool is nice and property backs onto a nice beach. View from lanai is pretty. Bed is comfortable. Second bathroom sink and mirror is convenient. Has microwave and full stove and fridge. Cleaning staff is lovely and accommodating. Cons: in the only bedroom the AC doesn’t work properly. We followed the manual and it would turn on and turn off within minutes every single time. It was useless. Property mgmt said they informed owner who indicated they would replace the unit but this didn’t happen within our stay which was disappointing. When you arrive no AC is on so the place feels humid and uncomfortable. By the second night with the fan (one doesn’t work) and AC on in the living room the bedroom is tolerable at night for one person but would be too hot for more than one person. Floors feel very dirty. Bathtub is creaky and needs replacing. Lanai door is a hazard. Overall wouldn’t stay again and we are very open minded. Needs major updating and at the very, very least the bedroom AC needs replacing for it to be a descent option. Lots of potential though for some upgrades!

Not the best property we’ve stayed at for sure, everything just seems old, worn down and uncared for. Daily occurrence of bugs and cockroaches in the kitchen, so had to be extra careful to not leave food related garbage anywhere, even in the garbage bin. Screen door was a joke, it barely was able to open to the back porch, glass door never shut right. Front door lock was loose, sometimes the screws would bind in the door and not let you in. Bedroom air con did not work (why even have it in there then???), luckily the living room air con did work though. No towels anywhere, the ironing board was broken, TV and cable difficult to figure out. None of the remotes in the bedroom worked. They did have a couple of extra fans in the closet which were nice, but they were dirty and didn’t stay pointed where you wanted. There is a pool available and a BBQ area, and it’s right on the beach, so those are positives. Parking isn’t too bad and the elevator worked fine. I’d say overall it was barely passable, but definitely won’t be staying there again.

Having 2 bathrooms. I didn’t like the closets coz it was full of junk. The sofa bed had a very thin mattress.
