A perfect place to get away in paradise. The location is the star… so close to what feels like your very own beach that sitting on the balcony is like being at the beach with a front row seat for the most beautiful sunsets I have ever seen. The small number of units at the Pikake make it feel so calm and private. So many things are close enough to walk… a lovely little park, a cute local souvenir shop, 2 excellent bakeries, Boss Frogs for rental, even a massage place. And you are steps from where your car is parked if you want to venture out to the natural treasures like the Coastal Trail, or to restaurants and shops in the more densely developed resort type areas. This host has thoughtfully supplied most anything you may need. From beach towels and chairs, to binoculars to watch the whales from the balcony, to flashlights for power outages, to games and books for rainy days, to a complete kitchen with all you need to make meals that you can enjoy on your balcony with a view that is so crazy beautiful! We felt like locals and loved getting to know Maui a bit better.
