Maui Sunset A518 Top floor Unbelievable Ocean Views

This was our second time ( first time in this unit) staying as a family of 5 at Maui Sunset. Maui Sunset is an older property with large Lanais and unbeatable ocean views. This particular unit is pretty basic compared to where we stayed previously. The only spices in the kitchen were salt and pepper. We were provided with only one trash bag in the kitchen and no laundry soap. If you are not looking for much in a great location, this is a good choice.One particular issue for our stay was that the pool, another big reason for us booking a unit at Maui Sunset, was closed for maintenance until our last day. We were not notified in advance and would not have chosen Maui Sunset for this stay had we known the pool was closed. I am pretty disappointed with the management of this unit allowing us to find out for ourselves at check-in and not providing advanced notice. That is the reason for the 3 star review.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This property is walking distance to several restaurants and grocery stores. They property is pristine and pool is cleaned and maintained EVERY morning. Turtles on the beach on the beach. The only downside is that the water is not great for swimming/ snorkeling due to the broken up coral bottom so we had to drive everyday to a different beach which gave us the opportunity to check out many other beaches. There was beach chairs but no umbrellas or floaties for the pool. Salt and pepper but no other condiments so we had to purchase everything fresh and then throw it away if we didn't pack it home.

Due to an oversight of the renting agency, the unit was not clean when I check-in. I checked in on a Thursday, after the office had closed, so I spent the next 3 hours cleaning this unit! After my email later that night, David called and was very apologetic about the situation; the agency gave me a 7.4% refund of my rental cost and a fruit gift basket for my trouble! This unit has a very nice view of the ocean, but that doesn't compensate for the dated interior. This is the worst experience we, as a family, had to date staying in vacation rentals and we traveled in many countries around the world. We will not be coming back to this rental.
