John,

We really enjoyed your beautiful condo. It was great to be able to walk to dinner and visit the galleries and shops after a day at the beach without having to drive.

Thanks,

Dear John,

We had a great time on Maui and will leave now to big island.

Your condo is pretty near to Front Street and we enjoyed seeing so many galleries and the activities. Your condo is spacious for two people. Only the traffice noice was disturbing. The earplugs helped us a bit to sleep.

Best wishes for the future.

Dear John,

Wow, what a beautiful condo! We really enjoyed our stay here on Maui tremendously. The location was perfect! Within walking distance to Front Street where there was so much to see and do.

Your place truly felt like home away from home. We really enjoyed it so much so that we would like to come back and visit again. Best wishes and God bless.

Thanks so much,

Dear John,

We truly enjoyed our stay in your condo. It is located close to all the shops and places of interest. Your condo has all the amenities to meet our needs. We definitely would like to come back here the next time we return back "home". For us Hawaii will always be "home" as we were born and raised here in Lahaina and moved to California 30 years ago.

Your condo was everything you said it would be. We were very comfortable here and would love to stay here the next time we come to Maui. Being so close to shops and restaurants made our trip so very relaxing. We took some of your suggestions on places to visit and were not disappointed!

Being able to connect to the internet made it so easy for us to find things we forgot to ask you about! Thanks for everything.

Dear John,

This was our 4th time staying here in these condo's. The new look is great and very comfy! We had a great time! Only thing I would recommend is dual pane windows to drown out the highway noise. We come every year. So we will talk to ya next time. Thanks for sharing your condo with us.

Dear John,

This condo was a great "home base" while we explored this beautiful and interesting area. We'll go home refreshed after our visit to the Big Island for a few days.

Dear John,

We loved staying in your beautiful condo! It was very comfortable and all the furnishings and amenities were great. We especially loved the shower!

The location couldn't be beat. It was wonderful being able to walk to town. We loved our first visit to Maui so much and sincerely hope to visit again.

One recommendation - it would be helpful to have a set of drawers to put our clothes away in...or to have extra hangers.

Mahalo!! Best regards,

Hi John,

Boy, did we love your condo! It's so thoughtfully planned out with many luxuries and considerations. This is where we'll stay when we return. Both families said we could easily live here in your rental. The wireless internet, DVD and TV's were much used and appreciated. And it was great to have all the basics furnished for us - even suntan lotion and beach towels. How thoughtful! We only had to buy food.

Thanks for the nicest vacation rental we've ever staying in.

P.S. Beds were so comfy.

Dear John,

I loved the condo, my favorite parts were the pool, TV, Beds (very comfortable) and last but the recommendation in how you told people about the submarine, well I went on it and I saw amazing stuff such as schools of fish and I saw a sting ray and we almost saw a shark. Well I defentily loved the pool on a hot summer day the cool waters brush up against are skin. So thank u fo letting us stay. We appreciate it. So just kick back and relaxe.

Sincerely,

We loved our stay in Maui! The location of your condo is great being within steps of nice shops and good food. The proximity of the condo to the the major roadway makes it easy to get to the best beaches by shuttle and bus such as the sugarcane train to Kaanapali. We also found it easy to drive to Haleakala Crater for the sunset which was well worth the drive and cool temperatures.

We love the extras you have in the condo such as the TV's and the Wi-Fi; well used. The fantastic showers and decor are a lovely addition.

Surrey, BC, Canada

Hi John,

We had a wonderful stay at your perfectly appointed condo! The only problem was that it was too short. We easily could have spent our entire Maui stay here. Your place is so comfortable and private yet so close to all the action and activities of Lahaina, we quickly felt like it was our place.

We'll have to find our way back here after the new pool area is completed - it should be even more perfect.

Rochester, MN

Excellent location and beautiful condo. I love the tile and the showers! We had a great time.

Melvin, Michigan

Dear John,

This was my first time in Hawaii and I don't think I'm going to leave. If you hear skittering in the closets, it's me. don't be alarmed - I've had all my shots.

Jane Kim

Beautiful place! Thank you.

Great atmosphere -Beautiful surroundings - Great shower. Thanks for sharing.

John,

A beautiful eye you have for locations and a beautiful warm feeling condo that look so beautiful. Thanks so much for the aloha and much more. You're great. We all hope to come back again!!!

Aloha and God Bless.

Houston, TX

This was our second stay @ these condos. First time was 9 nine years ago! WOW what a change, your place was so nice - convenient, showers were great, everything was clean and well maintained.

Thank your so much for "working us in" --- what a super change from the snow, ice, and cold weather. (we both got a "light" sunburn to take back and show off)

Thanks again,

Dr. Wayland

Thanks for letting us stay in your condo. It was very nice and a great location. We will be back!!!

Helena, MT

Aloha!

We stayed a couple of times here when it was the Maui Islander and were initially disappointed to find out that the Islander was no more. Although it was a bit run down, we appreciated it for it's rustic feel. We were fortuante enough tto locate Dr. Wayland's condo here. It has certainly gone more upscale and is very well-equipped. Not many places you find a rice cooker. And don't overlook the beach umbrellas next to the washer/dryer. This place still has the most relaxed resort feel on Maui and Lahaina is the place to be. Only unfortunate thing is th $15 per day parking ripoff, but Dr. John warned us about that. Here's hoping you enjoy your stay as much as we did ours.

John,

The room is so beautiful! We stayed here five times before and it is 100 times better! They did a great job on the renovations. We love the shower! We also love the new pool. We would like to stay here again in the near future. All of the amenities were great. We love Maui!

Dear John,

Thank you! We picked your condo mainly by location. Our favorite spots are close by.

Breakwall (surfing) Sunrise Cafe (breakfast) Foodland (grocery and poke!!) Maui Tacos (duh) Kimo's (hula pie) and Scoop's (ice cream)

Visiting the local spots brought back wonderful memories of our wedding. Your condo was the cherry on the top with all of the modern conveniences that made it feel like home. We enjoyed the pool, wireless internet, and everything we needed was here. Your thoughtfulness is much appreciated.

Dear John,

I really enjoyed my stay in your condo. Very comfy. Would love to stay on my next trip.

Aloha John,

We love it here at the Aina Nalu. Your unit is beautifully decorated and in the best location on the property. Our three children loved being close to the pool and club house and made good use of the facilities. While unloading our van one evening, four baby kittens came out thru the fence and played with my little ones. They loved it! Just like they loved the hammock and gathering coconuts to play with.

We had a great trip to Hana, Paia, Kihei, Makawao, and Wailea. Our three day stay in Molokai was wonderful. We attended my brothers wedding there and met our new inlaws. Now that's way cool...

PS The one thing I could have done without is that "Rooster" that cock-a-do-a-do starting at 2 am. I wanted to bean it in the head with a large coconut! (Is that against the law?)
