This property was a last minute booking due to cancellation of our original property one day prior to arrival on Maui. You would think anything available last minute would be questionable but E5 exceeded our expectations. This condo was paradise. The lanai overlooks the beach and pool where you can wake up to the sound of waves and eat dinner to an ocean sunset. Kihei is laid back, calm and reflects the beauty of Maui. It is not commercial or resortish. Yes it is on the older side, but you cannot tell. There is central a/c, fans, the kitchen is fully stocked with all the housewares you need for your home away from home and towel service. They also provide beach chairs, sand shovels, and boogie boards, (no cooler). It is a close drive to local grocery stores, (even a target is a 15min drive), and a nice 5min walk to shaved ice. Malea the property manager is awesome, very attentive and great with communication. With our family of grand parents, parents and kids we all agree we want to make this property at the least, an annual trip.
