Hi Loan, I just wanted to let you know that we had a wonderful time at Maui! You and Rowdy have a beautiful condo and we loved the relaxed location and easily accessible shops and restaurants nearby. Thank you so much for making it a part of the InnVision package that Lonya and I won. Everything went very smoothly and the weather was fantastic. It was a little on the humid side, but the nights were wonderful for just sitting outside and relaxing. We had all kinds of plans to do tours and activities when we left but ended up doing little except enjoying the atmosphere. If there were any cleaning or housekeeping issues, please be sure to let us know. It was kind of a rush on checkout morning, so I hope we covered everything. Again, thanks to both of you and to InnVision for a truly wonderful experience. Neva

Rowdy: I meant to send you an email when we arrived back in Canada from our Maui holiday. Thanks so much for the use of your condo, it suited our family very well particularly the swimming pools and barbecue area. The staff at the complex was very helpful and hospitable during our stay. We enjoyed the whale watching, snorkeling and kayaking adventures and the best was Warren and Annabelle’s Magic show (a must see for everyone!) I even took some surfing lessons with my son. In any event the condo was terrific and close to all activities. We misplaced one of the boogie boards at the beach and replaced it with a good one from Costco. We hope to come back and stay again soon. Thank you!

Hi Rowdy - Just a quick note to let you know my family had a fabulous time in Maui (Jan 2 to 7) and your condo/resort location made a huge impact on our stay there. The condo was so accessible and comfortable (as well as beautiful). When we went out the back door to the pool, it almost felt like it was all our own too! And it was so tranquil out there! With five gals in the group we certainly appreciated the 2 spacious bathrooms and the in-suite laundry room. If we visit Maui again, we'll definitely be back!

Hi Loan and Rowdy I just wanted to say how much we enjoyed our stay in Maui at your Condo. The location and acommodations were excellent, I just hope we can come back. I also have a friend that is looking at going to Maui and we told them how much we enjoyed your condo, that they asked us to check and see if it is available? They are planning 9 days starting Feb 11/09. Is your condo available? Thanks once again everything was great. Mel

Dear LoAn and Rowdy;
We had a wonderful time in Lahaina. Your condo was fantastic. It was so beautifully decorated. Having all the conveniences of home including the washer and dryer was wonderful. The condo is so centrally located that we walked downtown many times, even went to the local school carnival one block away. My husband went from saying "why do you want to go to Hawaii, to saying the next year when we come we have to stay at least 2 weeks, one week was not enough." We hope to come back next year. Thank you for being so accomodating of our needs and for sharing your condo with us. John and Adele Cravey

Dear Loan & Rowdy
Our stay in your condo has been wonderful. We felt so at home and looked forward to returning after each adventurous day. Your condo more than met our expectations, and we really appreciated all the extras – especially the cooler…MAHALO…PS. I forgot the washer and dryer. This has been a family vacation which will leave lasting memories for us all. Hopefully we will return

Dear Loan & Rowdy,
Thank you for the great condo. We loved the convenience and our morning trips to the harbor will be the lasting memory. The comfort and cleanliness bets Aina Nalu apart from the rest. It was fun to visit our son and be able to have family time in a home like setting. Again, our thanks.

We have been to Maui numerous times and have stayed in various places. Your home and the amenities exceeded our expectations. We thoroughly enjoyed the new swimming pool and close location to Front Street. We also appreciated the beautiful decor and cleanliness of your place. The beach toys and coolers were also helpful. Our children enjoyed your place. We will definitely return to this unit for rental again.

Thank you for this beautiful condo! We’re been on many vacations and never felt this at home! Everything was within walking & driving distance making it a ‘hot spot’ to stay in. Again, this vacation was very memorable and made it hard for us to leave. Hopefully, we’ll be back to visit soon!

Loan and Rowdy,
Adria, Scott and I want to thank you so much for allowing us to stay in your home. We had a great time. We enjoyed snorkeling off Molakini,hiking the falls at Hana and driving up to the big volcano. At the end of each day Scott enjoyed bouncing around between the two pools. The condo and grounds are just spectacular-and so close to town-yet so peaceful. You truly have a nice home.
Thanks again, Rich and Adria

Dear Loan and Rowdy,
Your place was beautiful with great location. We were supprised by how clean and well equipped the condo was. The condo is so close to the downtown area that you can walk to the stores within minutes yet far way enough to enjoy the peace and serenity of the island. Access to the BBQ and the pool was awesome. We were at the pool side and grilling everynight. The staff were very supportive and informative. We would not hesitate to rent your condo again on our next trip to Maui.
Best Regatrds, Long. |

| Reading over everyone elses comments, I don't have much more to add. The place was clean, spacious, and nicely upgraded. The facility included a beautiful salt water, black bottom pool/jacuzzi, with lots of lounge chairs. The other pool had a nice bbq for all to use. We made use of the washer/dryer, beach towels, and beach toys (cooler, shovels/buckets, mats) that the owners kindly provided. What was also very nice was that laundry detergent, dish soap, paper towels, garbage bags, toilet paper, bug spray, and shampoo/soap was also provided. I have stayed in condo's (not hotels) where you have had to purchase all of these items yourself for a one week stay. The other nice thing was that the restauraunts and shops were only a short walk away. Thanks Loan/Rowdy! |

Dear Loan and Rowdy, I can't tell you how perfect your condo was for us. At first we thought it would be just my husband and me and, although we looked for a one bedroom, we couldn't find anything in Lahaina and we reserved your 2 bedroom, 2 bath. But, at the last minute, our adult daughter decided to come with us while her husband was out of town and she was able to have her own bedroom and bath. We were blown away by the beautiful stone walk-in showers, the fully equipped kitchen and that "little" folding table that unfolds to reveal 4 chairs and plenty of eating room. We were also impressed by your calling your manager, who came very promptly, to fix a little glitch with the TV. Everything was wonderful and, if we hadn't bought our own condo on that trip, we surely would stay in yours again. Thanks! Patti and Ricardo Briones |

Dear Loan and Rowdy, Just wanted to say how wonderful it was to stay in your condo! It is beautifully designed, decorated and maintained and perfectly located within walking distance of everything Lahaina has to offer. It was especially good being able to use the sand toys which kept the children endlessly entertained. We hope to come back one day, but in the meantime we would like to extend a huge thankyou to you for being so helpful during our communication and for allowing us to stay in your lovely accommodation. Kind Regards, Sarah.

Hi Loan,
Just wanted to let you know your Aina Nalu condo was terrific! The beach toys, mats, chairs and cooler were a great bonus and we used them almost every day. My family really had a fantastic time in Maui and are looking forward to a return visit. Thanks again for help with the crib and accommodating our late checkout request.
sincerely,

| Dec 6, 2006. Had a very comfortable,although brief stay at your condo. The two bedroom, 2 bath, separated by the living room gave ample privacy. The open air lobby was a welcoming sight. If ever in the area, I hope to stay here again. |

We spent 2 nights here this past weekend, but really we wanted to stay longer! My wife and I were celebrating her parents 38th anniversary with a surprise trip to Maui. We found that this condo was perfect for us.
My mother in law described the condo as being like 2 mini-suites put together because of the very private set up with the living room dividing both bedrooms and bathrooms. All of the furnishings were of excellent quality and taste: cabinets, countertops, sinks, tile, furniture etc... looked like a model condo. Very luxurious, clean and welcoming. Some of our favorite things were the spa-like showers, dell flat screen tv, great vintage hawaiian pictures and the comfy beds.
The hosts have made sure all kinds of things are there that you might need for your stay... In the closet we found boogie boards, a cooler, chairs, beach towels and mats, umbrellas; all which we were glad to have on our outings. And in the kitchen they have all the utensiles and appliances you'd want to use.
You can't really beat the location here because you can walk right down the street and you are where all the action is in Lahaina. It really was nice not having to pay for parking and drive the car a lot. We found an awesome restaurant called Penne Pasta just a 2 minute walk down the street on Dickenson. Great food and good prices. We enjoyed looking at all of the art galleries too.
Well, to sum everything up, we would definitely choose this condo again for our next stay and we highly recommend it for anyone going to visit west maui.

Aloha, I live on the south shore of Maui and I have a wonderful condo. I was in need of housing for several nights due to renovation at my place so I chose to stay on the west shore at Aina Nalu Resort unit A109. After checking in the first thing that struck me is the fact that, with all the amenities this condominium has to offer I found it to be a bargain, especially here on Maui. The accommodations are first class – I found this unit to give you a sense of peace with its fantastic décor. I am very particular about cleanliness of a place and this unit was immaculate. After spending several nights there, I felt like I was on vacation here on Maui. Vacation renters of Aina Nalu Resort will enjoy the calm and quiet of this condo while surrounded by Maui’s myriad charms. Within walking distance are a multitude of outstanding restaurants, shopping galore, and cultural events. Maui is an island of endless pleasures and because of this magnificent experience of staying at Aina Nalu Resort; I have found a home away from home and I now plan to make periodic bookings throughout the year.
