Our stay in Kapalua was AMAZING. This property is situated in a perfect location.
First off the view is spectacular. You are treated to the island of Molokai, the rocks of Dragon's teeth, the forever green that this side of Maui offers and if you time your trip right, countless whales breaching in the beautiful blue ocean.
Secondly, if you travel with kids, the location is right next to the pool. This is great, as the walk there is within seconds. There was absolutely no noise from the pool and we left the patio doors open throughout the day. You can also walk to several of the best beaches on the island and if you golf, the world renown Kapalua course is at your finger tips.
This side of Maui offers many sight seeing opportunities and the location places you at a great advantage to see places many others are not.
As far as the house goes, it has everything you need. The beds are comfortable, the place is spacious and there are two balconies. There is a ton of closet space and dual sinks in two of the three bathrooms.
Aside from missing some spices and oils, the kitchen has everything you need to eat on site. However, in the Napili shopping center, there are two outstanding restaurants and Lahaina is not a far drive for many great options.
There are plenty of beach chairs, snorkeling equipment, boogie boards, towels and sand toys for your beach days. It can get a little wind on this side of the island, so plan to go to the beaches in the morning.
There is a dedicated place to park your car that is covered. We felt very safe at all times here.
All and all, I will definitely return to this property when I come back to Maui!!! Kudos to the property owners. Job well done.
