I love this condo because it is about as close to the water as you can possibly get, there are honu (turtles) in the water in front and on the beach below, it is very comfortable, and it has a well-stocked kitchen for cooking. Plus the whales! I went on a whale watch boat out of Lahaina for the first time ever, and, while I did see some whale activity, I actually saw better displays of whales playing from the condo lanai (balcony) than I did from the boat! Nohonani is a very friendly, small community - numerous guests gather on the pool deck for sunset and watch together. I am definitely coming back and staying in this unit again!
