Napili Bay Resort 209, Lahaina Maui

Outstanding!

Unlike a recent reviewer for Condo #209 we found it perfect! It was extremely clean and comfortable. The shower worked perfect for us. It was just a matter of adjusting two knobs to get the temperature set. We just turned on the hot valve first... more and then turned on the cold valve to get it right. No problem whatsoever! The sofa was NOT old and saggy as a previous reviewer noted. It seemed fairly new and was very comfortable for two people. We enjoyed the sound of the surf. This is one of the main reasons to stay in this condo. It is ocean front and has fantastic views. It almost seemed unreal. We spent a great amount of time sitting on the balcony. I should mention the bed was comfy as well. One thing we especially noted was the kitchen accessories. This condo probably had the best equipped kitchen we have seen in recent years. It had everything needed and all of the pots, pans, etc. seemed very new. During our stay there was no noise from people partying on the beach at night. After sun down all one could hear was the ocean and it lulled us to sleep every night. Bottom line.....great condo and the owners are very responsive to any questions etc. We could not have been any happier with our choice of #209! less

Everything that you need

Very impressed with the cleanliness and the thoughtfulness of having all the living supplies (dish soap and paper products) that you need for you time at the condo.

Great location, but badly in need of remodel

This was our first time to Hawaii, and friends recommended this area of Maui for vacation. The area is great with easy access to Lahaina, Maalea and other tourist hot spots. The beach is right outside the back door and sitting on the lanai was... more great for watching the ocean, people, Molokai, snorkelers, etc. Be advised, it is VERY LOUD in this condo due to the surf sound below and rocks nearby. It appears the drop off in the sand on this end of Napili Bay is quite steep, and coupled with the rocks nearby every wave crashes onto the shore. My husband and I literally couldn't hear each other speaking in the condo (I have perfect hearing, as recently tested). This is not soothing waves on the beach sound, this is full on "I'm in the middle of a hurricane" type sound. Luckily I had earplugs so I could sleep at night. The king sized bed was comfortable, which helped because the loveseat was extremely uncomfortable due to being old and saggy (no support). We are the kind of travelers that love to explore and see the are, but we also spend a fair amount of time in our rental, so having comfortable seating is a must. The condo had everything we needed to cook simple meals and the kitchen functioned. I did try to pull out the lower drawer on the stove to find a pan and the door fell off, which I couldn't replace. The shower was a disaster. There was no way to take a normal shower, as the water was freezing cold alternating with blazing hot. We became adept at jumping back and forth (not safe) to get clean. When I texted the property manager about it, the owner's response was "its better in the afternoon." This was not true, and they obviously know the shower doesn't work. FIX IT!!!! This condo definitely needs some maintenance and TLC. I had booked 9 nights and regretted staying that long. There is no servicing of the room, and that is too long to go without changing sheets and replacing towels. For such a long stay, a midweek service would have been nice, IMHO. For the price of this condo (yes, I know everything is expensive in Hawaii) keep looking and find a better place to stay. less
