Puamana Ocean Front Tropical Paradise 226-1

Very very nice location with ocean view and excellent beaches needs lots of maintenance need good management, too old furniture, cockroaches etc.

The host replied to my messages very quickly. The house was amazing and the view was amazing. We saw whales every day. We had some crumby weather so we weren’t able to use the pool. I think we had the best view out of all of the houses. The house was huge! Perfect for 6 people. If I ever come back I would definitely stay there again!!!

The host was welcoming and the house was nice. It worked perfect for our family.

This location was perfect!

Great place to stay with a 5-member family! Lots of privacy, steps to sand, and whales non-stop from the porch! A paradise!

The house was very comfortable and fit our family of seven perfectly. The views were fabulous! We had had everything we needed! We had a great time in Maui.

We loved our location and all the neighbors were very friendly

Worst property, by far, we’ve ever stayed in. These are notes I took during our stay. Grill, wouldn’t heat above 250 degrees, ruined a meal Stove, wouldn’t go above 300 degrees, ruined meal Blender, broken, fire hazard Dishwasher doesn’t work Ice maker doesn’t work 1 hand towel Paper towels horrible No toilet paper No soap Several dangerous parts of house, my wife had two injuries due to house. Over 90 degrees in house when we arrived Ceiling fan outside about to break Can’t sit at island with bar stools Black mold in glass Dead mouse Cockroaches House needs an audit before anyone else should be allowed to stay here.

The view was beautiful. The lawn and surrounding areas kept clean. Super quiet at night, the sliding doors keep it soundproof. Small little things that need to be fixed here and there. Manager said she would have maintenance address the issues. The manager had the television box changed out by midday of the second day we were there, after we reported the problem. The place could use better blinds and a new bar-b-que. Communicating with the manager was very easy and convenient.

Great location, quiet neighborhood and you can't beat the lanai/backyard/beachfront area. We found the place to be clean and it was nice having 4 bathrooms for 8 people. The host was very responsive with all of our pre-trip questions. The following is not meant to be a complaint but simply an observation: Our group is a rather TALL group of people and we found some of the fixtures in the house to be fit for much smaller people, even moreso than normal. So, just a literal head's up with the ceiling fan in the master bedroom, the 3rd level bedrooms/bathrooms (attic style ceilings) and the hood vent over the stovetop if you are also tall.

To put it mildly if this was the low point of our trip. For the amount of money we spent per night, I was expecting a high-end vacation villa. What we got was a rental with cockroaches, mice, a broken toilet, moldy bedding and towels, and TV that didn't work. Let's talk about the cockroaches, I understand that near beaches you can get the large cockroaches from outside. We found four in the rental. However, there were also smaller cockroaches which I took pictures of. Terminix came and said that the place, although didn't seem to be infested he absolutely saw a signs of cockroaches. Then there was the mouse that came out to say hi. The bedding and towels were moldy. We had to rewash everything, which cut into vacation time. Having eight people, one a toddler whose potty training, in a house where you now only have three bathrooms instead of four because the toilet runs and floods the kitchen every time you flush it is a major inconvenience. Lastly, the no TV working wouldn't have been an issue if we didn't have said toddler with us. We made it work with tablets but there is a giant TV and she couldn't understand why we couldn't watch her show on the TV. All in all there are a bunch of inconvenient things like no tissues in the house and sweltering heat on the top floor bedrooms. I think the worst part is that the property manager lives in Seattle, so whoever is managing the property locally for her is not doing a good job and she has no visibility.
