Hi Di and
Dave,
Just wanted to let you know how much we loved your condo. From reading through
the guest book it sounds like you did a remodel not that long ago and what a
treat for us. The surf was up while we were there so we had quite a show with
the waves crashing against the bulkhead. They sometimes reached the branches in
the tree. Watching the whales from the lanai was one of our favorite things to
do. I especially appreciated the nice clean, fresh smelling bathroom linens.
Thanks for advertising the real deal.

Thank you
again for sharing your little slice of paradise with us. We feel we fell in love
all over again here, as the sun, the water and the aloha spirit worked its magic
on us. Thanks for the mini cooler, chairs and umbrella. They were invaluable.

What an
awesome week. Your condo was exactly what we expected. Your web site was so
accurate. I can’t say enough about how wonderful your condo is. We loved
mornings on the lanai with the little birdies. Mahalo for sharing your awesome
condo.

This was just
great. We’ve been to Maui many times before, and stayed in condos that cost us
two to three times as much (or more), but never had a better Maui vacation than
this one. Your unit is lovely – more spacious than most of the others, bright
and immaculately clean. Thanks Dave and Di for sharing your beautiful condo and
ideal location. We loved every minute.

Aloha Di
and Dave. Your condo is a true slice of heaven. The proximity to the water is
amazing. What a wonderful base for all of our activities while on this end of
the Island.

Standing in
the kitchen of your lovely condo was like being on a cruise ship. All we could
see out of the large sliding glass door was ocean. Awesome. Thank you for
keeping your home so beautiful and clean. It was stocked with everything we
possibly needed and more.

This vacation
and spending time in your condo will go down as one of the best in my life
time. This wonderful “home base” so close to the water and all you could
ever need on the Island was perfect. The waves, the surf, the rainbows were
heavenly. I couldn't have asked for more, or for a better place to call home
during a fabulous week on Maui.

We had a
wonderful vacation and thoroughly enjoyed our stay in your condo. It was very
comfortable and well outfitted. After about two hours we felt we were at home.
There was an open house upstairs in a non corner unit. It was mostly original
(circa 1973) with no upgrades. You did an awesome remodel and your web photos
were right on.
We will certainly recommend it to our friends and family.

We arrived
yesterday at your unit and are sitting on the lanai having coffee watching the
sunrise. What a life!! Your condo is beautiful and we are so glad to be here.
You guys did a great job upgrading 317. We have stayed in a number of Kahana
Reef units and 317 is the best! Mahalo and aloha,

Hi Di and
Dave. Thank you so much for the use of your condo. Never having been to Hawaii,
one never knows what to expect but the trip was beyond our expectations. Your
condo played a major role in making our first trip to Maui very special. As my
wife wrote in your guest book, our entertainment for the week was sitting and
having coffee on your lanai and watching the mother whales teach their calves
breaching, head slams, and all of the things whales do.
I think the location of Kahana Reef can't be beat and we are already planning
when in 2008 we might be able to repeat the trip and do less running around and
more just "smelling the roses." Thanks again.

I am 79, so a whole day driving around until my night flight would have been very hard on me, especially since we would not get home for 24 hours. I would sincerely like to thank you for allowing us to stay late on our departure day. Your condo is beautiful....so much more pleasant that the one my husband and I stayed in before. We had a wonderful time, so thank you again.

Aloha from Maui.
Your condo is wonderful. The remodel is wonderful, very clean, modern and the BEST at Kahana Reef. I walked by many at night and saw outdated units. You and Dave should be happy.

Our stay this
last week in your condo has been PERFECT! We couldn't imagine anything more we
would want. The condo is immaculate and the views are the very best we've seen
anywhere on the island. I have already recommended your condo to my in-laws and
will to everyone I talk to who is thinking about coming to Maui. We will also
make this trip again next year...I can't wait! Thank you so much.

Aloha Di and
Dave:
We are back at home and wanted to say MAHALO for the condo improvements. We were
so excited to be the first to stay in your condo after the remodel. The kitchen
is beautiful. I could cook and not miss a bit of the awesome ocean view. The
bathroom was nice before, but I was floored at how much nicer it is now. We look
forward to our trip back every year and staying at Kahana Reef 317. Your pride
in ownership is evident as every year passes, and I'm still surprised at the
improvements. Until next year..... Mahalo

We just got
home this morning and I wanted to provide some feedback on KR317. It is very
simple......WE LOVED IT!!!! I must admit that I was concerned about renting a
unit from the Internet sight unseen, but it was fantastic. The condo was clean,
tidy, well decorated and absolutely perfect in every way. The bedroom was a
perfect temperature at night, the view from the lanai was fabulous. We hope to
stay there again. Thank you.

Mahalo Dianne
and Dave for sharing your wonderful Maui Home. The condo comlex is so quiet and
peaceful. We did a lot of relaxing, swimming and “whatevah.” Until next time.

This is our
sixth visit to Kahana Reef. We loved your wonderful condo. The view is so
outstanding. Thanks for the beach chairs and comfy bed. We walked to the
farmer’s market every morning to pick up fresh papaya and other organic fruit
and veggies.

Dianne and Dave:
We had the best vacation ever here at Kahana Reef 317. Thanks so much for making
our trip so enjoyable with your wonderful accommodations. Your condo is just
great! The view of the ocean is breathtaking. We saw a lot of whales and sea
otters. Amazing!

Hi Diane and
Dave
Mike and I have had a wonderful time in your beautiful condo. We have stayed in
other condos on Maui, but this is the best! The many amenities make it very
comfortable. We especially like the comfy sofa, beach chairs and even the
clothes hamper.

We want to
extend our thanks for your wonderful hospitality. Although you have been renting
out your lovely condo to many guests (as we could see from the guest book) you
treated us like we were your first. We really feel grateful to have found you
and Kahana Reef 317, out of all the places on Maui. Thanks again and we will be
in touch for our next visit to Maui. Best regards

We
just wanted to thank you for sharing your condo with us on our recent visit to
Maui. We found the unit very clean and well equipped with everything that we
needed. We really enjoyed sitting on the lanai in the morning sipping Kona
coffee and watching for whale spouts. We had some friends over for a cookout
one night and they all had positive comments about your wonderful condo. Mahalo

The condo was awesome...just like
your website. The views off the lanai were so soothing, especially with coffee
in the morning. It was so calming to the eyes and soul. We slept great with the
sounds of the ocean. The condo is very clean and modern. We enjoyed having
access to beach mats and a cooler. Thanks for letting us play here. When I
return, we will surely look you up again. Mahalo

We really, really enjoyed our stay
at your condo. This view, the setting are absolutely spectacular. I can't even
begin to put into words the magic your place carries. We came to Maui for the
first time to celebrate our 25th Anniversary. I loved the Farmer's Market, whale
watching from your lanai and the sheer sense of "being" your place generates.
This vacation in paradise is truly a dream come true. We will definitely come
back to your condo in the near future.

We arrived after dark and went
to bed with the sound of the waves crashing. We were up early and were amazed at
just how beautiful the view was as the sun came up. The views on your website
are good, but in person it is so much better. The sound of the ocean is so
wonderful. It would make an appealing addition to your website. Thanks for
giving us such a great first impression of Maui.

Hi Dianne-
Kim and I thoroughly enjoyed our trip, and your condo unit proved to be the
perfect launching pad for all of our activities!
We really appreciated all of the extra touches that you and Dave clearly go to
... including your VHS video library, the updating you mentioned that you have
done on the unit, and your consideration of the smallest, yet important touches.
(e.g., extra wine glasses, MP3 player, and a garlic press!) More importantly, we
spent several evenings on the lanai star-gazing, and enjoying the waves washing
up almost directly beneath the deck.
We are now thinking about making another visit in June.
Thanks again Dave and Dianne!

Thank
you so much for sharing your condo with me and my girlfriends. We had an
absolutely wonderful time. Your condo was clean, spacious and we loved all the
shelves in the remodeled bathroom for our stuff. I loved the tea kettle. The
weather was the best ever in the 6 years we've been taking this golf trip.
Everyone wants to go back again next year. As soon as we have our dates, we'll
be in touch and hopefully your condo will be available again. Thanks again.
Best regards,

My
family and I would like to thank you for allowing us to stay at your Kahana Reef
#317 condo. The room was every bit (and more) what your website said it was
going to be. The new tile floors and bathroom looked really good. The view was
amazing and refreshing.
I don't think we'll stay in any other area in Maui. Kahana has everything and is
very close to all the places one would want to go to often - like Kapalua,
Kanaapali, and Lahaina. Honokowai which has a Farmer's Market (amazing fruits,
veggies, and local goodies) is also right across from a cute little beach park
which my kids enjoyed.

We really enjoyed our stay in Condo 317 at
Kahana Reef. The condo is well decorated, clean, cheery, and comfortable. It is
very well equipped and had every accessory that we needed during our entire
stay.
We sat on the lanai every evening and watch 10's of whales cavorting in the surf
just beyond the reef. During the day (when we were not sightseeing on beautiful
Maui) I often snorkeled on the reef and observed many, many types of reef
fish. On one occasion we had a seal swim in to the seawall. It was such a
surprise that even the Hawaiian fishing family who live on the North side of the
condo ran for their cameras.
We certainly hope to return to Kahana Reef and would highly recommend Unit 317
and particularly the treatment we received from Dave and Dianne. Thank you,
again!
