We had a fantastic Maui vacation in April 2015 in unit 1117 in the Lanai Bulding of the Mahana. The condo was fantastic, very nicely appointed. Granite countertops, beautiful tile floors, lovely furniture and the Lanai was fantastic. Floor to ceiling windows make for a fantastic experience of the Maui sunset. This unit is on the 11th floor so you have an unobstructed view (no palm trees blocking the view) of the Pacific Ocean and the two islands of Lanai and Molokai. During the nighttime the view of the startled sky is awesome with no light pollution so the stars just pop. Taking a timed exposure at night you can detect Honolulu in the distance. Several times during the night we saw night divers, did not know what it was at first when we saw lights under water looking like a 'light-sabre' with the beams of light stretching for 20-30 feet, cool. All the appliances in the condo are new and in excellent condition, cooking and serving utensils are very well appointed. The beautiful shower was nicely appointed with lovely tile and a turtle motif in the floor. Obviously the owners take pride in their condo and it shows. During our stay we saw numerous humpback whales just off the Mahana along with turtles, spinner dolphins and other sea-life. The beach in front of the Mahana is fantastic, great for early morning walks along the beautiful sandy beach and walk back on the board-walk/beach-walk, like walking through a tropical garden. This location has nearby conveniences such as Times supermarket a short walk away, Java Jazz for breakfast and/or dinner, we ate breakfast there most times, highly recommended. Also Duke's is right next door for breakfast or dinner, especially nice during sunset. All in all a fantastic experience and will definitely stay there again. This was our fifth time back to Maui and this condo was at the top for quality, view, and convenience to services.
