It was an adequate, room that met basic needs. Clean, and no nasty insects that would have ruined it for me. Friendly staff, all questions were answered and any request for towels, etc., were fulfilled quicky. The couch served well as an extra bed (more sheets would have been nice). However, it was not comfortable to sit on as you had either sit so far back and sit cross-legged or layback and slide off the couch as the bottom cushions did not stay in place. No TV, not a big deal to me, but if you need to watch TV you will need a laptop and streaming service No pot holders or kitchen towels - was a problem for someone who cooks. Notes in the rental sheet noted that you could be charged for stained towels. Needs more dishes, regular glasses, and cookware but that is not that big of a deal. You just have to get creative when you cook. Biggest draw back was that the only curtains on the wall of window were sheer curtains. All of the street lights kept the room bright all night. The folding room divider helped a little, but the room was still too bright. Beach chairs were a mis-mash, mismatched selection of what ever was left by previous renters or found somewhere and not in very good shape. Due to beach erosion, it is a very shallow beach with not much room to spread out on busy day. It used to be much wider years ago. Don't waste money on snorkel gear. The coral is pretty much dead from bleaching events, sand erosion and other undetermined factors. VERY FEW FISH and no colorful coral like 15-20 years ago. Although Napili Village has no control over that, it was very disappointing. Holly at Head to Toe Salon in the parking lot, was gracious enough to take me in for toenail polish salon without an appointment. The Sea House Restaurant was not all that it was cracked up to be. 5315 Kitchen had a nice small Tiki Bar with great, generous sized drinks and great appetizers. I can't rate the restaurant, since all we wanted was apps and drinks. Sansei Sushi in Kapalua had a rude hostess and they lost out on probably $200 because of the attitude. Napili Marked was great! There were several other small local eateries in that plaza that are checking out. The Ribs, Wings and Rotisserie chicken joint is a fantastic place for take out. Coffee shop was also a hidden gem.
