Warm wood accents and classic Asian island- inspired decor create a peaceful, relaxing atmosphere that will instantly put you at ease. <br /><br />I'm Sue, and I would love to welcome you to our home away from home. While I’m new to Airbnb, I bring many years of experience in property management. I have also enlisted my son's good friend, Ryan, to help me host. He has hundreds of 5-star reviews on Airbnb and years of experience living and working in Maui. Together, we are always available to help our guests experience the best Maui has to offer. This is my sanctuary, home-away-from-home, and my goal is for you to feel the same during your stay. <br /><br />The Mahana is about as close to the ocean as it gets, and the condo has direct ocean and West Maui mountain views. You can watch the sunrise over the mountains and set over the ocean each day. A private gate from the Mahana provides easy access to the boardwalk, which goes for miles and leads to the Kaanapali Beach resort area. Take a short walk on the boardwalk or the beach to Duke’s restaurant next door or one of the nearby resorts for fine dining and entertainment. There is direct ocean access and excellent snorkeling. The beach size varies greatly with the tides and season.<br /><br />-One free parking space. One car maximum. Sorry, there is no parking for a 2nd car <br /><br />Inside the condo: <br />-Spacious two-bedroom, Sleeps 6 guests<br />-Central AC and ceiling fans to keep you cool<br />-1 King-size bed, 1 Cal-king bed, 1 double sleeper sofa (please read below about sleeper sofa)<br />-Furnished lanai with direct ocean views and outdoor dining area for 6, plus a ceiling fan and lighting for extended dining and use<br />-Indoor dining area for 6<br />-Spacious living space, 1,214 sq ft + 240 sq ft lanai<br />-Smart TVs and high-speed WiFi<br />-Fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher<br />-Drip coffee maker, Keurig, electric kettle, French press<br />-2 Full bathrooms, first has a walk-in shower, second has a large jet tub + shower in one<br />-In-unit washer/dryer with some laundry detergent to start<br />-Beach towels, beach chairs, and a small beach cooler<br /><br />*The comfortable living room couch includes a queen sofa bed, though many guests, including our adult children, have found it simpler and more comfortable to make up one or both sides of the L-shaped sofa into single beds, rather than moving the table and pulling out the sleep sofa each night. The solid, and heavy, wood table in front of the sofa needs two people to move it. The bedding is conveniently located in the cabinet in the entrance hall.<br /><br />*There are several rental shops for snorkeling gear within 3 minutes of the condo building. Sorry, I don’t provide snorkeling gear due to safety and hygiene.<br /><br />Bathroom Amenities:<br />-Ample, quality shampoo, conditioner, body wash, hand soap<br />-Towels<br />-Several rolls of toilet paper<br />-Iron and ironing board<br />-Hair dryer<br /><br />Resort amenities:<br />-Medium-sized oceanfront heated swimming pool and adjacent jet spa with towel service<br />-Lounge chairs on the large open pool deck<br />-Well-maintained BBQ area<br />-Tennis/Pickleball court on site<br />-Shuffleboard court<br />-24-hour front desk<br />-Activities desk/Concierge<br /><br />What's nearby:<br />-Duke's Beach House - 10-minute walk<br />-The Beach Club Restaurant & Bar - 10-minute walk<br />-Castaway Cafe - 1 mile walk<br />-Food Truck Park - 10-minute walk<br />-Fish Market - 3-minute drive<br />-Time Market (full-size grocery store) - 3-minute drive <br />-Whalers Village (luxury shopping/dining) - 7-minute drive<br />-Black Rock Beach - 2-mile walk<br /><br />**Check-in/out**<br />The condo is self-check-in. I usually send detailed instructions one week before your arrival date. The door uses a personalized electronic key code. Check-in is anytime after 4 pm and check-out is anytime before 10 am<br /><br />**Baby Gear Rentals** <br />Need a crib, high chair, or stroller? I can arrange baby gear rentals as needed.<br /><br />**LAHAINA FIRE**<br />The condo is in a beautiful area north of the fire, and all restaurants, buildings, and beaches were undamaged. This is also the case for the surrounding neighborhoods. All of my favorite beaches were untouched, and there are tons of great restaurants in Ka'anapali, Kahana, Napili, and Kapalua, just minutes from the condo. The road to Hana and my favorite hikes are still open and will likely be less crowded than they used to be.<br /><br />**MAJOR USA HOLIDAYS**<br />Reservations checking in/out ON THE DAY OF: Thanksgiving Day (November), Christmas Day (12/25), New Year's Day (01/01), Easter, and July 4th will be subject to an additional $200 cleaning surcharge to provide my housekeeper holiday pay. If you check in/out the day before or after, there is no surcharge.<br /><br />***This property is Hotel Zoned and NOT in danger of any short term rental ban.***<br /><br /><b>Guest access</b><br />The entire condo is exclusively yours! The common areas are the heated oceanfront pool/jet spa, BBQs, lobby, parking, tennis/pickleball, and shuffleboard courts.<br /><br /><b>Other things to note</b><br />The beach size in Hawaii varies greatly month to month due to weather, heavy surf, strong currents, and tides. <br /><br />Maui is a tropical island and tends to have bugs and ants during certain times of the year. Although the exterior of the building is routinely treated to help combat this issue and the condo is thoroughly cleaned between each guest, it greatly helps if you leave the screens shut and don't leave any food out to avoid unwanted creatures. Geckos are friendly, eat insects, and are considered good luck in Hawaii.<br /><br />My condo is independently managed and not part of a hotel. There are some conveniences, such as daily linen service, that the large hotels provide, and I simply can't offer. My goal is to provide a home-away-from-home, relaxed island stay.<br /><br />South Korea: I am no longer able to accept reservations from guests whose home location is in South Korea. Unfortunately, their laws on last-minute cancellations do not follow my cancellation policies.<br /><br />Your visit can make such a positive impact on the island. Your presence helps to employ residents in tourism and helps to sustain local businesses. Over 80% of Maui's industry is driven by tourism, more than any other island in Hawaii. We would be thrilled if you chose this condo to call home for your dream Maui vacation. Mahalo<br /><br /><b>Registration Details</b><br />2440010990089, TA-071-256-2688-01
