"We got to the property for check in, had reception guy that is not exactly the best at greeting or got the best customer service award, the ladies and Kasper were nice, the place is under construction / renovation, no restaurants or gym available, the beach in under water due to the hurricane. Beautiful sunset and good coffee at the shop 808! The room is good for two, since you share the entrance with another condo, hopefully the people next to you is quiet and don’t turn on the lights at 5 am. Nice place overall."

"excellent beach view, outdoor pool is nice and daily pool maintenance is awesome. Room is clean although looks old and just normal sleep only type. Sleeping Room window is along the pathway, and privacy maybe an issue, although never has a problem when we’re staying, since the adjacent rooms were not occupied. Living room and Lanai are overlooking the ocean, so, which is awesome, 5 stars on that. Good laudry machine and dryer. Complete kitchen wares, good size refs, microwave oven, Dishwasher, etc. No complaints there."

"Our room was large and clean with space to spread out our luggage without being in the way. The bathroom had a little closet feature to hang wet clothes and store toiletries. We got upgraded to an ocean view room, so we could hear the waves although there was a hedge in the way so we couldn’t see the ocean from our bed, but that’s not an issue. There was a bus stop within walking distance and we were able to store our luggage on check-in day when we arrived earlier than check-in time. The front desk staff were helpful and friendly. We’d stay here again!"

"The property is just down the road from the high-end Wailea hotels and stores, but without paying the high-end Wailea room rate. Pool looked inviting although did not use on such a short stay, and the free breakfast was good with plenty of seating. Would recommend going to the Monkeypod restaurant located few hundred feet from hotel and known for unique Mai Tais. Would come here again"
