Bill -
I just wanted to say 'thanks' - we had a wonderful stay at your condo. The sunsets were beautiful, the accomodations were exactly as expected, and the location was perfect for us to sightsee the island. Special thanks for being honest about the beach - seaweed was heavy in front of the complex but lots of clean beach north and south.
We loved the grill area - if you don't already have a picture of that on your website you may want to add it - that's a great selling point. We moved from Maui to a highrise in Waikiki that had coin-operated electric grills - what a bummer.

Dear Bill & Denise:
Just a few comments regarding the wonderful vacation we had in Maui and at your condo. We sure enjoyed the beautiful sunsets from the lanai.. and we rushed back to the Condo every afternoon to just witness those spectactular events! We were so busy sightseeing and visiting the many attractions that we did not have time to do the beach scene justice. Will have to make up for it on our next trip. Also had fun exploring the many restaurants recommended by friends & your prior guests. A). Here are thigs we recommend seeing & visiting: Gardens etc. at the Kaanapali Hyatt Hotel; Banyan Tree in Lahaina; Maui Tropical Plantationin in Waiapu; Iao State Park & Sugarcane Museum in Waikapu; Hotels & golf courses in Wailea and the lava flow in Makena. Drove to top of Haleakala..but clouds obstructed view. Went to one lu'au( at Maui Prince Hotel)but were very disappointed. B) Eating Places: Mama's Fish House in Pa'ia (excellent & expensive), Charlie's in Paia - our favorite. great fish & chips and plate- size macademia & blueberry pancakes were fabulous; Stella Blues & also Antonios in Kiehi; Leilani's & Cheeseburger in Paradise in Lahaina; Plantation House in Kapalula (great food & view). Hope the above is somewhat helpful for first time visitors.
Bill & Denise, once again thank you for your kind generosity and for allowing us to experience the Maui adventure in your Condo at the very unique Kauhale Maki complex. We will recommend you to our friends. MAHALO!. Jim & Phyllis Imand and our Cousins Dan & Carolyn Beyer.

| We stayed here once before, found it lovely and comfortable then, even better now. Bill, they have resumed clearing the seaweed off the beach--it was pristine and deserted, what a treat. Ideal location. |

Mahalo Bill,
I had a very relaxing, quiet stay in your condo. One thing I still remember is falling asleep and waking up to the sound of the surf. Not loud, and not at all when the wind wasn't favorable, but a relaxing way the end and begin a day. The condo was everything needed for hanging out on site or as a base to see the whole island. Best MahiMahi is at Peggy Sue's in Azeka Cntr in Kihei.
Great snorkeling at mile 14 turnout near Olowalu going towards Lahina. I'm working out my own recipe for POG. Won't be as good as Haleakala Dairy's.
Aloha and Mahalo, John |

| Bill, Thanks so much for allowing us to enjoy your wonderful condominimum. It was so enjoyed by all 4 of us! What a wonderful spot to enjoy a wonderful paradise vacation. We did have a lot of wind, more than I have experienced there before this time of year. The sea weed along the beach is a definate down side to that area. Mahalo and we hope that someday we can enjoy another pardise vacation in #335. |

JUST WANTED TO DROP YOU A NOTE TO SAY THANK YOU FOR LETTING US USE YOUR CONDO FOR OUR VACATION - WE HAD A WONDERFUL TIME AND IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL PLACE. THE VIEW IS SPECTACULAR ESPECIALLY AT SUNSET. WE EVEN HAD ONE MORNING WITH THE FULL MOON SETTING THAT WAS OUT OF THIS WORLD. ONE OF THE GIRLS WOKE SOME OF US UP TO SEE IT, IT WAS SOMETHING WE WILL NEVER SEE HERE AT HOME. WE WERE ALSO ENTERTAINED WITH A DOUBLE RAINBOW IT WAS BEAUTIFUL.
THE PEOPLE AT THE FRONT OFFICE WERE VERY HELPFUL AND WE HAD NOT PROBLEMS IN CHECKING IN OR CHECKING OUT. THEY EVEN HELPED US TO BOOK THE ROAD TO HANA THRU VALLEY ISLE TOURS YOU CAN HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM TO ANYONE STAYING THERE OUR GUIDE DAVID WAS EXCELLENT. WE ALSO WERE ABLE TO SEE THE DOLPHINS WITH THE PACIFIC WHALE FOUNDATION LANAI TOUR IT WAS AMAZING SITE TO SEE.
WE APPRECIATED THE FACT THAT THE OFFICE ACCEPTED "LEFT OVERS" FOR THE SHELTERS SO WE FEEL WE HAD FUN BUT ALSO HELPED OUT OTHERS.
I KNOW YOU DON'T HAVE TROUBLE RENTING OUT YOUR UNIT BUT ANYONE THAT ASKS US ABOUT THE COMPLEX WE TELL THEM IT IS GREAT AND THAT YOUR UNIT WAS WONDERFUL. WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT TO ANYONE, WE HAVE NOTHING BUT HIGH PRAISES AND LONG STORIES OF FUN WE HAD.
THANK YOU AGAIN FOR HELPING MAKE OUR TRIP FANTASTIC.

| Bill, thank you for sharing your 1100 square feet of paradise. The condo was in perfect shape, and very accommodating for 4 people. The unit is several hundred feet from the ocean, but has stunning sunset views. Our only disappointment was you could not hear the surf at night! |

| As a former resident of this unit, I can say Bill, you have made 335 beautiful! We enjoyed another memorable vacation in 335. The unit is very well furnished, clean and feels as wonderful as home. The location is fabulous. The view awesome. Breakfast on the balcony as well as evening wine as the sun sets is beyond description. This trip we added Warren and Annabelle's Magic Show (side splitting) in Lahaina and the Slack Key concert at the Ritz Carlton to our itinerary. Both were wonderful. Suggest snorkeling at Ulua Beach in Wailea. Water is usually calm. Arrive early (8am) to enjoy before the winds pick up. Everything you need is in close proximity to the condo. We absolutely love everything about the condo. Thanks so much. |

My sister and I are so lucky we found your name on VRBO. The location is great - close to some of the best beaches for swimming and snorkeling, restaurants and shopping.
The condo itself was well equipped, clean and had a jaw dropping view.
During our stay, a screen in one of the windows blew out. Property management was there immediately to replace it. Will we be back? You bet!
Thanks for a great vacation Bill!

| wow! The apt was heaven! We woke up in the morning, had coffee on a balcony with a view that looked better than a postcard. This place had it all! And if it didn't, you are just a few minutes from many stores. There's even a little store in the building! The AC was helpful in July. There was a snorkling mask and fins in the closet! It felt like home and was clean! The pool & jacuzzi are small but nice. The ocean is a few steps away from the apt. What a treat! The beach is clean and safe. Would definetly look Mr. Dixon up first! We left spices, foil etc for the next visitors. Keep the tradition going!! Thanks for a great time! It was like coming to a safe and clean home after a day full of fun! Patti - Maui is the best! Mahalo! |

| What a spot! At the hot tub in the evening, we learned other people were paying more for the little one bedroom units than we were for two, and they had less of a view. We just smiled and nodded. We'll be back! |

Sadly our two weeks at kauhale makai is over. Ed couldn't have found a better place in to celebrate my 70th birthday. The weather was perfect and we had lazy days walking your beach and using the pool and jacuzzi.
We appreciated your quiet, perfectly situated and spacious condo. The views are the best.
Tune to 93.5, KPOA, for island music.

Just want to thank you for the use of your lovely home. After two weeks, it always felt like we were coming home after a day at the beach.
Sitting on the master bedroom lanai in the morning with a cup of coffee was beyond words. The sun over Haleakala and the ocean beyond were spectacular.
