June 2010 – Unit C618 - Aloha Kathy! Joan and I have loved our stay in Maui and we just have loved staying in your home. We have explored so many beaches and the highlight definitely snorkeling….snorkel, snorkel, snorkel. Turtles and fish galore. Thank you again for letting us stay in your beautiful home and your artwork is stunning. So sad to leave this paradise. Edith and Joan – Canada
May 2010 – C618 - Aloha Kathy, We our out on your balcony enjoying a beautiful day. We went to the beach and then Costco. We are now having a cocktail and then we’ll be going to the pool. I just wanted to tell you I just love your place and I wish there was no one coming in after us. I love what you have done here and all of your decorations and your artwork is fabulous. Awesome, awesome, awesome and I couldn’t have asked for anything better. I just wanted to really thank you, thank you, thank you! Mahalo – Trish R. – Alamo, CA
May 2010 – Unit C618 - Aloha Kathy! This vacataion has been everything we may have expected and much more!! Maui is paradise! And staying in your home gave us all the conveniences of home with a comfortable, convenient and just wonderful place to live for 2 weeks! I love the quiet, I even like the “wake-up birds” every morning! The land views BEACH, Mountains, flowers all are spectacular! Mike’s hope was to fish and fish! Had a mother and baby whale next to the boat and so what a memorable video that is! Also shore fishing he caught an octopus! We were told that is rare. The fish are so incredibly beautiful! Something way different from Lake Superior. Wailea shops something fun for everyone here. Thanks again! Pam and Mike A. Dulth MN.
April 2010 – Unit C618 – Thank you Kathy for the “welcome gift.” We enjoyed it. Your artwork is lovely. I called Karen Camara to arrange for a lesson. Did a painting at Kamaole Beach II. Learned a lot of pointers. It was a very helpful exercise. Thank you for you the use of your condo. Pat and Frank – Calgary, Alberta, Canada
March 2010 – Unit C616 - Hi Kathy, we are flying out late tomorrow. Is it possible to have a later check out? Whale season is at its peak. We are sitting on the lanai watching Kayakers observe a pod of whales right off shore. We went whale watching yesterday and it was amazing, the best 40 dollars spent. I will for sure be recommending this condo. It has everything you need and high end. Thanks Shawn - CA
Feb 2010 - Unit C618 - Thanks so much Kathy!! …and I feel SOOOOOOOO bad that I didn’t write you a nice note when we got back from Maui to tell you how VERY much we enjoyed our time there!!! I wrote something nice in your guest book, so you’ll get to read that if you haven’t already ? We really did have the BEST time and can’t wait to go back one day!! Hope you’re doing well, and have an AWESOME day!! Elisa - Canada
Dec 09 - Unit C618-Dear Kathy: We enjoyed our 2 week stay in your lovely condo last Dec. 18th/09. We were impressed with the very comfortable King bed and everything else was just right, thanks again Kathy. Aloha from Shirley and Paul T. - Canada
Nov 2009 - D402 - Kathy, Our vacation was the best, great condo friendly people awesome weather. We hope to return soon and will definitely contact you for our needs. Thank you again for allowing us a later check out, turns out one of the lower pools was open just a mistake on my part reading the notice. Thank you, Glenn S.
Sept 09-Unit C618-Aloha Linda & Kathy, We are in your condo since September, 19. At our arrival, we have had a big surprise: a gift for us. Thank you very much (picture attached).
Our stay is very good. Your condo is very nice and very confortable. We like it. Everything is perfect. Best regards, Louise et Serge
July 09-Unit C618-Kathy, Thank you so much for sharing your Maui condo with us. We have so enjoyed our time here. Lots of beach time with a few drives. We toured Makawao and Lahaina, the swap meet on Saturday in Kahalui (great bargains and selections), and a trip to the Humpback Whale National Marine Sanctuary (726 S. Kihei Road). That was lots of fun and informative. We checked out Big Beach (be careful but fun), Makena, and any others. Our favorite snorkel spot remains Ahihi Kinau Reserve past the love. Great spot. Turtles, a moray eel, a zebra eel, lots of tang and marvelous fish. We are looking forward to our next trip. Thank you! Jeff and Donna. PS We love your artwork.
June 09-Unit C618-Aloha Kathy! It is departure day and we leave with full hearts! Your home here is both beautiful and peaceful, and we loved being here. We were lucky to be here for the Maui Film Festival and attended 3 evenings. What fun! The people at Maui Dive Co. got s going with snorkeling. We took their snorkeling trip to Molokini and “Turtle Town” enjoyed it thoroughly and then rented the snorkeling gear with the ½ wet suit. We snorkeled every day. The water is so beautiful. Your recommendations for everything were right on and so helpful. Thank you for all the care and consideration you give to your guests comfort and happiness. Sherry
< June 09-Unit C618-Aloha Kathy, Your lovely place was more than I imagined. Your generosity and kindness is so appreciated. You will be hearing from me for future visits. I greatly appreciated your write up of places to go and things to do. Every day was a luscious treat. My visit was too short but filled with memories for a lifetime. Cindy
June 2009 - C618 -Hi Kathy, Julie & I had a great time staying at your condo. This was our 30th wedding anniversary and what a way to spend it. The fruit basket was yummy. This was our first time in Maui and it was great. We did the Pearl Harbor tour, horse back riding, fishing for marlins, road to road to Hana, snorkeling, parasailing, swimming & helicopter ride to Molokini. We had such a great time for the 2 weeks we stayed at your place. The people were so friendly there and what a switch. We will be doing this again and I want to thank you very much for having us stay at your condo. The best thing was to be able to go down stairs walk across the street and jump into to the ocean, which was great.
Thank you very much Scott & Julie
June 2009 - D402 - Kathy and Linda, We are having a blast here in Maui! The condo is beautiful! It is very comfortable and is supplied with everything we might ever need. Our kids love it here and want to move here :) just a quick email to say everything is great and we appreciate all your helpfulness and recommendations for our Maui experience! Mahalo :) Jennifer
May 2009 - C618 - Hi Kathy, Thank you for the welcome present (fruit basket). We arrived last Sunday in your beautiful apartment. Everything is fine. It is comfortably and cozy furnished and very clean. We enjoy the place and the proximity to the beach. Many greetings. Reimund and Maggie
April 09 - C606 - Aloha!! Thanks for your message Linda, all is good here and we're enjoying our stay, of course!! Thank you also for our basket of
goodies, you guys are awesome!!! I think that next year we will come again in April, perfect time to come. I will be sending a few more referrals your way as we have friends looking to come here. Mahalo and I look forward to our next stay! - Michelle M.
April 2009 – C618 - April 2009 – C618 - Hi Kathy and Linda, Just wanted to thank you again for everything, we had a wonderful time. The condo was perfect we really appreciated having access to chairs and the snorkel gear. We had a wonderful holiday. Very relaxing. Your snorkel recommendations were awesome. We liked swimming with the turtles right here at Kamaole II the best. It was wonderful to watch the whales from the lanai. We will be back to Maui hopefully before too long, we just have to get through the winter Olympics and then we can think about our next holiday. All the best Nancy and Julia
March 2009 – C606 - We are back from beautiful Maui and wanted to thank you both for the lovely fruit basket we recieved after checking into our condo. It was an unexpected surprise...thank you so much. We'll definately be in touch with you in the future and may be looking at staying a month or so. We really enjoyed our stay and appreciated the prompt response from the owners in dealing with the phone. Their condo is lovely. Mahalo for everything! Brenda
March 2009 – C606 - Kathy, We had a wonderful time in Maui. Had a really good time with our daughter and son in law. The condo was really beautiful and a great location. If we make another trip the Maui we will be staying in C606. Thank you again - Jack & Judi
March 2009 - C618 and C309 – Hi Kathy! Just wanted to let you know that everyone had a fantastic time in Maui. My family really enjoyed your condo, and we all appreciated the wonderful gift baskets that you had delivered - thanks so much! It's been awhile since I've seen your unit (C618) and the updates that you've made are great! I don't know the next time we'll have a chance to visit again (we're actually moving out of CA in a few months), but when we return to Maui, we will definitely contact you again. Have a great day, Maiteeny PS. We took your advice on buying some local artwork. I bought a few items at the Haleakala Trading Co and we also bought some beautiful art glass from a gallery in the shops at Wailea! Maiteeny
March 09 - C617 - Hi Kathy and Linda, Tara and I have kept meaning to email you to say the condo and your service was awesome. We appreciated the extras like the gift basket and giving us a call while we were there. Our friends that were down with us at the other resorts were also very impressed. Thanks again. Bruce
March 09 – Unit C618 - Kathy, Susan and I arrived home today, after a wonderful holiday in maui. thank you for providing us with a great place to stay. We had a couple of days of rain...but it was still a heck of a lot warmer than it was at home. Everything worked out well for us. We look forward to returning to Maui again next year (not soon enough!) Mahalo - Don and Susan
Feb 2009 - D402 - Hello Linda and Kathy, Thank you, Linda, for your phone message this morning- we were at the Maui Ocean Centre, very interesting! Once in a while circumstances work out better than expected and this trip have been one of those life circumstances. The condo was even nicer and better equipped than expected, the grounds and location of the Kihei Akahi were ideal and lovely, and of course Maui is a most beautiful place- a real paradise. Please extend our thanks to the Harris' for the gorgeous roses for Valentine's Day and the yummy fruit basket from Maui Vision for our anniversary! These extras were very surprising to my family although I had been telling them all along of how helpful and efficient you were from our whole interactions starting last April. Thank you thank you for all you've done for this wonderful Maui vacation! Kim, Phil J. and family
January 2009 - C616 - Aloha Kathy, Linda and Don - Thank you for all your help with our vacation and the basket of goodies. We had a great time here in Maui. Great weather and lots of whales. We are off to Honolulu for a few days and very relunctant to leave this great location. Mahalo Vic & Sharon
December 2008 – C618 - Aloha Kathy, As usual, it is great to be back here, it was like walking into a 'home away from home. The beer in the fridge was the best thing. The day's travels all forgotten, sitting on the lanai, drinking my 'Longboards,' eating fresh Maui pineapple. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, such a life. Thank you for the fruit basket, it is always appreciated & well used. Yummy coffee & cookies. My oldest son & his wife are here for their 1st time & they also think that they are in Paradise. Hope that you are well, again, thank you for the fruit basket & the beer. I forgot to mention that I love the new colors, they look terrific. The side by side fridge with the ice dispenser is also invaluable. There was quite a storm a few days ago, thankfully the power didn't go out. Hope that you had some good weather on your holiday – Aloha Gaye.
December 2008 - C617 - Hi Linda & Kathy: Please pass on our thanks to the Harris's for the flowers in C617 and thank you two for the food basket which we certainly enjoyed.We're enjoying our time here. Reg & Louise
September 2008 – C618 - Dear Kathy, It has been a long time from my summer vacation. In Japan, it became colder nowadays. I really love snow boarding, so I'm waiting for snow...I remember the days in Maui. It was very nice. I enjoyed everything! I stayed comfortably thanks to your condo. Besides, you provided that cheaper than the regular price. As my gratitude, I will send you this Japanese wash clothes. Which is yu-zen dying. These are very convenient and functional. In Maui I really enjoyed the life. First, I went to Krispy Kreme (there are some shops too in Japan. It appeared a few years ago) and Safeway to buy things we need in Maui life but before that, Hawaiian Air lost our baggage. Our 2 suitcases went to Hawaii. We didn't like to wait so we had our baggage delivered to our condo. We went to the beaches everyday. Some of the days sharks appeared. We couldn't enter the sea for more than 4 hours. I sometimes surfed (but little waves in the summer), sometimes we went shopping at the Farmer's Market and swap meet. This year, we challenged driving to Hana. It's a little far from Kihei, but it was really wonderful and scenic way. We got avocados!!! It was wild one. There was an avocado tree and my friend found it. There was some tiny trouble but there were all nice memories! Thanks a lot xxx - Mimi.
Sept 08 – C618 - We are back safely from our trip to Maui and Oahu and just wanted to say how much we enjoyed staying in C618 at the Kihei Akahi! It's a nice quiet place to kick back, relax and listen to the sounds of the birds and the ocean. We explored the island thoroughly and got some great snorkeling in at the Ahihi Kinau Preserve. We did the Highway to Hana and the sunrise on Haleakala. Yes, we were busy! We came back to cold temperatures and some rain. Wish we were back on Maui. Thanks again for sharing your piece of paradise. - Ilka and Doug M.
July 2008 – C618 - Hi Kathy and Linda, We are just leaving Maui today. Thank-you for hosting us at your lovely condo. We had a great time. We especially appreciated the beach equipment and internet access and great location. Your paintings were fantastic. Thanks again and we would love to stay here again on our next stay in Maui. Thanks, Sujan, Paula, and Alyssa
May 2008 – C618 – This was our first time visiting Maui, and we loved it! The weather was great, the temperature was perfect and the beaches were beautiful. We had lots that we wanted to do, and we managed to squeeze it all in during the week that we were here. It was so nice to be able to come back to the condo after our various activities and have a place of our own to relax and cook a meal. We spent a lot of time on the balcony admiring the view. The condo was great and very well stocked; we especially appreciated the beach chairs, snorkels, boogie boards, and the cooler. Thanks for the great place Kathy. – Karin and Chris
May 2008 - D402 - I just wanted to drop you a quick line to let you know how much we enjoyed our stay in Kihei Akahi condo D402. It was wonderful, absolutely perfect for my daughter and I. Also, thank you very much for having fresh flowers in the unit and the basket of goodies that was delivered to our door upon arrival, those little touches do have a way of making a person feel special. As always our stay in Maui was fantastic and I can't wait for the day I
become a permanent resident rather than just a visitor. Jade was lucky enough to meet and enjoy the company of another Canadian teenager her age during our stay (his family was also staying at the Kihei)
so for her this trip was even more fun than she expected. Thank you for everything and we look forward to speaking with you real soon when we book our next trip to the Island. With warm regards, Leanne and Jade
May 2008 - D402 - Aloha Linda, Well we actually made the decision to just stay another night, May 22, and skip the headache of standing by for the flights tonight. I will leave a check for
$332.03 on the counter made out to Marianne Harris. We will be leaving the the condo at 6ish pm on Friday, May 23rd, so if you'd like to tell Nancy, that would be great. We'll try to take all that we brought with us this time so she
doesn't have to store our belongings again...ha-ha. Thanks for the kind words and you are a delight to deal with as well. As you know, there are many choices for condos on the island. We love Kihei Akahi D-402, but it's your service that makes our stay convenient and seamless. We hope to return in the fall so you should be hearing from us in the near future. Thanks again! Brett
April 2008-C618 - Kathy, We had a wonderful time in Maui and in your beautiful home. The basket was sure a nice surprise and treat. This is the Ocean Maui Center Xavier sure had fun there! Again that basket was great. The coffee was an eye opener at 5am the next morning when Xavier woke. Thanks again – Laurie Ann – Saskatoon Canada
March 2008-C618 - Aloha Kathy – Thank you for the lovely gift basket awaiting us on the arrival to the condo. As usual we had a great time and hopefully can save enough money to return to “paradise.” – Norm and Pat M. – BC, Canada
March 2008 D402 - Dear Kathy and Linda
With apologies for taking so long....
We hope you had a Happy Easter, ours was great.
It has just taken so long to get things back to normal
Mostly we want to thank you for such a lovely condo in Kehei. We were very
pleasantly surprised,
especially after a less than ideal one in Honolulu. I am hoping that you
will pass on our thanks to the
owners. We were very taken with the Asian decor --- such a departure from
the usual.
The fruit and goodies basket was a wonderful welcome surprise !! Thank
you both, it was very generous and kind, and we greatly appreciated it.
All in all we had a superlative Hawaiian vacation, with a few
highlights...not the least was the Maui part.
As always the whale watching is a favourite of ours. The lanai gave us a
great view . We kept our
binoculars at the ready all day and were not disappointed with the viewing.
This is also the first time we have ventured up Haleakala and WOW !!!
We were also lucky enough to get to the Pan Pacific Soccer Championship
games, much to the envy
of Ann's older brothers (and as a bonus we got to see David Beckham play!)
It is now back to reality...it snowed a little this morning, now the sun
is out, but so is the wind.
Next week promises to be warmer or should I say less cold. The dog was
very glad to have us home
and we have waded through the pile of mail etc. The tans are fading ( I
reckon the fading starts as soon
as you step on the plane ) Hopefully it will not be 9 years before the
next time.
Again , thank you for the place, the treats and your help...
Best regards
Diane and Ann
March 2008-C214 -Dear Twyla, I just wanted to drop you a quick note to tell you how much we enjoyed our trip to Maui and staying in your Condo. We had a wonderful time and it was everything that we had hoped for. We grew to really enjoy and prefer the location on the island that you chose to purchase your condo in. It felt more like a neighborhood than a highly commercialized area, yet it was easily driveable to other locations. We really enjoyed the extras that having a condo provided us with over having a hotel room. We really enjoyed Maui and all of the recreational activities available. We also attended church there on Easter Sunday at Hope Chapel. Thanks again. It was a pleasure getting to know (email) you. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your condo. We may not have gone on this vacation if it hadn't been for talking to Tom and Bonnie about their vacation in your condo. We will be returning to Maui. Thanks again, Rose and Dean A.
Feb 2008-D402 - Aloha Kathy! Well, we're down to a few more days and wanted to confirm
what was expected as far as sheets, towels, cleaning, etc. It was a nice visit, though the weather was a bit too cloudy and rainy for us. Fortunately, the sun showed up yesterday and it looks like our last days here will be nice! We look forward to renting a condo from you in the future! You are great! Brigitte - AK
Feb 2008 – C616 - Aloha Kathy, Just back from a wonderful month in Maui. We had a great time and the weather was beautiful. Couldn't believe the whales this year, they were exciting to watch from the lanai. I was wondering what you have available for January 30/09 to February 28/09? We stayed in Don Albers place and it worked out fine. As you know we usually stay at your place, but I know it is booked at these times. Would Don's place be available for next year? Please let me know what you have as soon as possible, as I would like to get everything booked; car, air tickets, etc. – Mahalo, Maureen, Canada.
Feb 2008 – C606 Thank you so much! We could have left our camera a number of places that day and we've accepted that it's probably gone. We are just using that as an excuse to revisit all the places so we can take another set of photos! I would have loved to send you some pictures of us in the condo cooking. One of our favorite days was the hike around Haleakala. Thank you again to the Carvers! We just loved the space and the zen appeal of the bamboo! It was perfect for my yoga practice. It was the perfect change of pace from our hectic lives in New York City. The decor captured the essence of island life and the peaceful escape we were seeking. We especially enjoyed the short walk right down to the beach to watch the whales jump out of the ocean. The views were breathtaking and created the romantic atmosphere we desired. We cooked most evenings in the wonderful kitchen and savored our Hawaiian inspired meals with some wine on the lanai. We are looking for a short term opportunity in mid July. The timing worked out perfect for the hiring for the schools but he might not know for sure which school he will be working at until closer to the beginning of the school year. Therefore we're looking for something for July and August and will then look for something more permanent after Labor Day. If you hear of anything in Kihei that is available please let us know. We really like this area best and thought it was centralized for both of us. We're coming with two suitcases each and that's it! I'm so excited. Mahalo for all your efforts! I appreciate everyone's help in building our future together. It was a time we will never forget. We really enjoyed our stay. I will definitely recommend the place to stay for friends and family! We'll be in touch for sure. – Kelley - NY
Feb 2008-C616 - Aloha Kathy and Linda - Thank you so much for the lovely basket. We were surprised when returning from grocery shopping. If you are in communication with Don I hope you will tell him that we are really enjoying the "sharp" knives he has; must be a chef. My son and I love to cook, so this is great. Weather is better today. Had a beautiful sunset last night. Just starting to unwind and we are both looking forward to a very relaxing holiday. Thanks again Linda and Kathy. Mahalo Maureen - Canada
Jan 2008-D402- Aloha Kathy and Linda! Mahalo for the lovely welcome basket! You are so nice! We also had fresh flowers on the table and the condo is perfect! The weather is not cooperating today but that was okay since it's been a travel day. Lots of wind, clouds, some rain and sun. Tomorrow is supposed to be partly cloudy but if we have to stay inside, what a nice place to be! Thank you so much for your assistance in the past several months! You are great! We know who to call in the future! - Brigitte, James, Gabrielle and Theresa - Alaska
Jan 2008-C618 and C616 - Aloha Linda, thank you for your phone message yesterday. I will recommend your company for anyone coming to Maui and looking for a condo. We will be back next year as well and will consider staying in Kathy's unit. As it turns out my mother in law is staying in C618 and we are in C616 and both enjoying our stay! We don't want to go home! I am sending a friend of mine to you and she wants to ask about your units so she'll be calling. I really enjoyed dealing with you so I am happy to recommend any of my friends. - Michelle M. Vernon, Canada
Nov 2007-D402 - Aloha Kathy, We have enjoyed our stay tremendously, and we will make you first on our list for accomodations next time we're able to visit (hopefully late January). Thank you for spending extra time with our requests. Mahalo Nui Loa and A Hui Hou'. Brett and Missy - Utah
Sept 2007-C618 -Kathy, we had a great time in Maui for the short time we were
There. We enjoyed your condo and your paintings on the walls. It has been hustle, bustle since we have gotten back. I finally had a few seconds to sit down and write you about our trip; by the way we went on the dinner cruise with Tony Smith and got our picture taken with him before we went on the cruise. He is a great human being. I hope to get to Maui some time next year for a little more time. Thanks again for letting us stay at your condo. – Ken and Dianne - Phoenix, AZ
Sept 2007-C618 - I have thoroughly enjoyed staying in your home, thank you for all of your flexibility with the rate and last minute payments. I think it's wonderful that you have a condo with such a great view. I have already referred your company to several of my friends who might be coming over early next year. Take care! Thanks again Kathy - Rachel L.
Sept 2007-Unit C616 - I just wanted to send you a note to thank you for your help. The condo was
amazing and we had a great time... Thanks again! John B. - Los Angeles, CA.
May 2007-Unit C606-Hi Kathy! We truly enjoyed our stay in Maui - thank you so much for everything. The basket of Maui treats was incredible and made us feel so welcome. You and your company do a great job and I am going to recommend you to my friends who are traveling to Maui. Thank you so much. Lindsay and Alex - San Marcos, CA
June 2007-C214 - This was our first time in Maui and we loved it! The condo was great. We cannot wait to come back and will tell others. Thank you. Roy’s Bar and Grill has very good fish. Peter and Maria K. – Boise ID
May 2007-C618-Aloha, It's hard to believe that we've been back from our trip to Maui for a little over a week now. We just wanted to tell you what a wonderful time we had. Thank you so much for the wonderful basket of treats that you sent us. We have never tasted pineapple so good. The condo had all the comforts of home. We absolutely loved sitting on the lanai every morning overlooking the ocean, and the evenings were just beautiful. We were very impressed at how well maintained the grounds were. It was a real treat to just walk down the driveway to the beach. Kathy, thank you so much for allowing us to check out later in the day. You have no idea how that eased things up at our end. We had so many wonderful experiences during our stay. Some of the highlights were the beautiful beaches, The Feast at Lele (on my birthday), a secretly planned massage and facial by Christian, shopping at Lahaina, watching the surfers at Ho'okipa. We ate some wonderful food. To name a few, Mama's Fish House was outstanding, the local fare at Hana Hou cafe, Fish Tacos at Alexanders, and of course Shave Ice. I could go on and on, but I'd have to write a novel. Needless to say, we had a wonderful trip and we will be back. Mahalo from the both of us for your part in making this an experience we will always remember. Sincerely, Diane and Phil - Nashua, NH
Jan 2007-Kamaole Sands-Kathy, I should have written sooner, but I am catching up at work....We had an impossible-to-describe wonderful time in Maui!!! What a paradise! The weather was perfect every day. We loved everything. We
never go the same place twice (cuz there's just so much wonderful to see in this world), but we are already planning our next trip. We loved the condo, and felt that the price was excellent! We also loved that
location, and after seeing the whole island , would return there again, without a doubt. We really liked the atmosphere, beaches, lack of high-rises, etc. I also really appreciated all the info you sent about the area - I had done quite a bit of "research " myself, but your info was a delightful extra - for example - finding "Little Beach" thru that small gate in that wall was like a miracle I will not soon forget. I have since dreamed again about the beauty of that beach- that was certainly a very special find. I thank you for that one!! Anyway, we just really could not have asked for more - we spent our days in a perfect combo of activities, and just beaching! We saw Hana, Upcountry,Lahaina, and at least 15 different beaches. We visited w/ many different people, which my family enjoyed. We did an all day whale cruise and snorkeled at Molokini and Lanai. Our daughters got to swim w/ the sea turtles and see lots of whales. We also saw lots of surfers, gorgeous waves, beaches beyond compare, sunsets, and the aquarium. All told, we did about half of what we had planned, so we'll just have to go back! Once we were there, we quickly realized, that we had to slow down, and just look, and b-r-e-a-t-h-e- too! I cannot thank you enough for it all. Seems like I happened upon you and our lovely little condo in a lucky state of grace! Fondly, Corinna – Wausau, WI
Jan 2007-C617-Hi, Kathy: Just a quick note to say that we had an absolutely fabulous time in Maui! The condo worked out great for us. It was a wonderful location, and the condo was clean, neat and had all that we needed. We enjoyed the beach chairs, beach towels, boogie boards, etc. etc. Nancy kindly let us put our bags in the condo early so that we could get changed and go to the beach, too. Your many suggestions were helpful too, and we followed several of them. If we ever come to Maui again, we would love to return to your condo at Kihei Akahi. Thanks again for everything, Kathy. Bill & Anne – BC Canada
Aloha Kathy: Just a quick email to let you know we returned last night and had a great time at C618. We'd like to do it again next year if the unit is available? Your paintings are lovely and I also loved the Asian touches throughout. Weather was great; just one day of heavy rain, but it was gone by afternoon. Truly enjoyed watching the sun come up with a cup of tea and then go into the ocean at sunset. You really do have the best views. Brought my binoculars and saw a few water spouts and a couple of fins, but no breaching. Maybe next time! Again, thank you so much for allowing us to rent your home away from home, it was wonderful. Mahalo Maureen and Larry L. - Delta, BC.
Aloha Kathy! Thank you for letting us stay in your condo...very nicely decorated and a wonderful location:) We had a great time in Maui and will definitely be back again someday. We kept very busy seeing many places and spending the last few days snorkeling a lot and enjoying the vacation. I will definitely recommend your place to anyone I know. We signed your book and gave a few recommendations. I'm missing it already! Mahalo, Sara S. - Sioux Falls, SD
Aloha Kathy, We arrived home safely on March 7th after a wonderful vacation in Hawaii. Thank you so much for the rental of your condo. We used the beach chairs, cooler, umbrella, etc. Everything was so handy. I wish we could have spent the last two days there also. I left a vase of Hawaiian flowers on the dining room table. We had bought them along the road on our way to Hanna and enjoyed them for our remaining time at the condo. I left a note for them to be enjoyed. The weather was perfect the whole 10 days we were in Hawaii. Went snorkeling and whale watching and bumming everyday. The high speed Catamaran we went out on one day was wet and wild. I made the mistake of sitting in the front and the misty waves were ok but I didn't like seeing a 12 foot wave coming at me as we were coming down from a 6 foot wave. Death grip on the seat probably kept me from being washed out to sea. Everyone in the front was wet from head to toe. Ate at Roy's in Kihei, which was excellent. Dessert to die for. Again thank you so much for the condo. I will recommend it to anyone coming your way.Carolyn and Bob - St. John, IN
Hi Kathy, Happy New Year 2003. We enjoyed your place very much and would like to come back one day. I am a teacher and my time is set for the school holidays only. Those are usually the busiest times everywhere and we have to book our tickets well in advance. I will let you know if we are going to come back to Maui and when, as I would like to rent your place again. Your place is very comfortable, nicely appointed, peaceful and homey. There is everything one needs. I also like the location, the views and the birds singing in the morning. So lets keep in touch for future stay. Would you be interested in renting your place to some of my friends? There is always someone looking for accommodation in Maui. Please let me know if I can pass your number on.

Well we finally got home yesterday We had a great time in Maui and the condo was perfect for our purposes, close to everything, and very affordable. I loved the view and watching the birds every morning. I got a good photo of the sunrise coming over Haleakala from the porch perhaps I can e-mail it to you and you can show it off. Anyhow, thank you for everything. We appreciate your hospitality, the welcome basket and your condo unit. Let me know if we checked out okay. Thanks for everything. John H. - Rockville, MD
Aloha, The tropical island is very beautiful. This is my 3rd visit. A few things to do that are a must. Travel to wine country, it's a lovely journey and venture out on a helicopter ride. Explore the Beauties. In addition, thank you for sharing your condo. It had a homey feeling.

Kathy, Our return trip here was even better than the first. Beautiful weather, golfing, great beaches and sunsets. We had a fabulous time and relaxing vacation. It was good meeting you. The snorkeling at the south end of the beach Kamole Beach Park II was great. We look forward to staying at your condo on our next trip.Amy and Rick - Chicago, IL
Aloha Kathy, we really enjoyed the sunsets from C618! Had a great 5 days. Saw lots of whales. Weather was superb. My husband and son went to watch the golf the "Mercedes Championship." Your unit was very comfortable. Mahalo/ John, Cathie and Matt C.

We had a great time here on Maui. We enjoyed the road to Hanna and biking down Haleakala. We found the condo very comfortable and well equipped; in fact the whole complex is brilliant, clean, well-maintained etc. We are so pleased that we choose to stay here! Thanks and Mahalo.

Hi Kathy, I just wanted to write to thank you for such wonderful accommodations in Kihei. You are such a thoughtful and considerate person. There was nothing you hadn't thought of to make our stay more pleasant. The view was beautiful, the condo was homey and the driving incredible. Than you so very much. We will be back, possibly next year, but more probably '06. I have already recommended several others to contact you. I also wanted to commend you once more on your artwork. It's lovely and now that I have seen its inspiration, I can appreciate it even more. Once again thank you.Sandra H. and Chad P. - Pasadena, MD
Aloha Kathy, Tomorrow is our last day. We have been very happy here in Maui and also your condo. Maui is such a beautiful island. Went round the island for an hour in a helicopter, visit to Lahaina, snorkeling cruise, lots of barbecues and meals out and of course the wedding at the Grand Wailea chapel. The wedding was perfect, absolutely beautiful and the reception at the Sea Watch restaurant watching sunset was a dream come true. We didn't get chance to cycle down the volcano, the Hanna road and the Sugar Cane train amongst other things but we will definitely be back in a couple of years. Maybe we could stay at your condo again? Thank you very much for your help for this trip and hope you are well and visiting here yourself soon. Maui really is the most beautiful island in the world. Mahalo.Amanda and Steve - Surrey, UK
Aloha Kathy, I'm already thinking about my next trip. The condo met all of my needs. Hopefully my stay will be longer the next trip. There is sooooo much to do here. Mahalo. Sherwin - Antioch, CA
Hi Kathy, WOW !!! Same time next year? Loved your home. Thanks for opening it up to me. Can't say enough good things about Maui and the people. It was the trip of a lifetime. Talk to you next year (tee hee hee) Mahalo. Leslie P. - Manitoba, Canada
Just back from Maui. Yahoo!! We had a tremendous time. Surprised? Thank you for the use of your condo and your willingness to work on short notice. I lost my precious dad a few months ago and this week really helped our hearts heal a little more. Thank you so much again, everything was absolutely PERFECT!. Vicki K. - Kennewick, WA
Just a quick not to let you know we've had a great week at your Maui home; We've done and seen a lot, and appreciated having a nice base of operations. We really enjoyed the colors, the furniture choices, and the little decorating touches. Thank you so much.Sandi K. - Pismo Beach, CA
I had no idea how much I needed to get away. Your place is beautiful and has a great view of the ocean. The candles were special and the furnishings so comfortable and visually appealing. You have a great place. Mahalo again from my heart and Aloha. Linda C. - Pukalani, HI |
