We knew we were in for a treat just coming to Maui and were especially ecstatic knowing we were staying in Lahaina area. We have stayed in Napili Bay a few times before so was very much looking forward to its laid back pace that can only be labeled as "island style." On this trip, we were coming in from Oahu where we were there for 2 "tourista" whirlwind days so were very much looking forward to some bumming and soaking in Maui's natural beauty.
All our expectations and then some were met at our condo. We were beyond pleased when we stepped into our actual condo and were welcomed by a basket of goodies (even had Cookkwees), breezy spaciousness (for twirling happily), fully equipped kitchenette (for preparing yummy local eats), comfy furniture (for pure getting really good sleep, and lounging with Maui onion chips and cold beer), cleanliness (very important), and overall, good style/design (island themed, and elegant). We enjoyed watching some Food Network/Travel Channel once we got back to our room on the flat screen TV. We also enjoyed falling asleep to the crashing waves at night right outside our windows and hanging out on the lanai in the morning watching the sunrise over the water. We enjoyed the 30 second walk (it really is a 30 second walk!) from our condo to the beach. The beach itself was very scenic and romantic, with tidepools and awesome black lava rock formations to the south, Molaka'i west, and to the north, more peaceful resorts (Kapalua is also very close). The condo also provides body boards, snorkel gear, beach chairs, and an umbrella, all in fair condition. We enjoyed the location also. It's a 2 minute walk to eat at The Gazebo restaurant. A 3 minute walk to snorkel with tons of honus (my favorite part) as well as other colorful fish! A 15 minute drive to Front Street where all the shops/restaurants are located. We really can't wait to come back soon to this unit. Maybe in the spring so we can see the whales from the lanai...:)
