July 10-26, 2010

"Amazing Location and Condo, will be back!" "We just returned from a 2 1/2 week stay and loved the location of this condo.  We had stayed before at Kam Sands in other units, but the proximately of the condo to the beach, pool and BBQ was SO convienent, especially on the ground floor with kids.  This was also the cleanest condo we have ever stayed at in Maui.  We loved the neighbors, and made great friends around the pool area. 

Thanks Chris and Rose, we hope to stay with you again! 

Deanna and Markus"

Dear Chris and Rose,
This was our first visit to Maui, and we loved it. We heard about you place on the internet. Your condo is beautifully decorated and very comfortable. We enjoyed our morning coffee on the Lanai. Very private. Great location too. The kids could walk to the pool on their own for a quick evening swim. The weather was beautiful our entire holiday. Very hot. We took surf lessons (Royal Hawaiian) a submarine tour (Atlantis Submarine) and drove The Road to Hana. Snorkeling at Honolulu Bay was great. Lots to see. Parasailing and lovely shops to snoop around in at Lahaina. Thank you for your outstanding accommodations. We will definitely return back SOON!!

P.S. Fred’s Mexican Café had good food and huge portions. Fun atmosphere and casual.

Thank you for such a week – appointed condo. We usually appreciated the stock of essentials & even extras like the picnic cooler. Felt very much at home. Our first trip to Hawaii and we’ll certainly be back!
Sincerely,
Karen and Jim

Loved, loved, loved the condo! Great location, everything was wonderful. And fresh mangos every morning from the trees – heavenly. Can’t wait to come back.

Sunday, Nov 4 –
Rain!! Lots of rain, and much cooler. Supposed to rain Monday and Tuesday as well. Will be sorry to leave here tomorrow, it is so comfortable. We’ll be on Maui until Saturday – Kaanapalli – more golf – a massage – and Happy hour at the Aloha Grill in Lahaina – it’s the best Mai Tai!! Saturday night specials at the “Aloha” Grill are ribs and they were great!! On Monday we are going with friends to “Warren and Annabelle” in Lahaina.
Can’t wait to come back here.

P.S. Good place to eat is “The Big Wave” at the north end of Azeka Place Shopping on South Kihei Rd. Before 6:30 pm, it is two meals for the price of one! On Wednesday, at 3:30 is the Mai Tai party at the pool – great fun and wonderful music! “Da Kitchen” has very good food, as well.


October 30 – November 5, 2007
Dear Rose and Chris
What a lovely vacation home you have. It is comfortable, quiet, and relaxing. The lanai is very nice and private for meals, visiting, or just relaxing. Dad played golf, of course, and I shopped, explored, and hung out. Very warm weather, beautiful!


Dear Chris & Rose, 

Your condo is really nicely decorated and was very comfortable, nicely located in the complex for getting to the beach and the pool, great privacy on the lanai, and very nicely priced.  The price helped us to enjoy a snorkeling trip to Molokini and some surfing lessons as well. We'd stay again at your place anytime.

Thanks again!

We are so happy to have found your condo on the internet. This is our first trip to Maui and we think the place is in the perfect location. We enjoyed most of our down time on your beautiful lanai.

Crystal Rose Properties,

The cell phone reception in Kihei is so good we didn't have a need for it.   But thanks for getting it set up anyway. Just wanted to thank you for the use of the lovely condo. It certainly made things really comfortable to have a condo for two weeks vs a hotel type of living arrangement.   It was stocked with everything you needed.   Living here in Vermont with the cool and buggy evenings, we don't get the opportunity to sit outside to eat breakfast or dinner.......that was really lovely.

Dear Rose and Chris
Thank you for providing such a great base for our stay. Your condo is very comfortable with all the necessity for a great vacation. We’ve been to Maui several times and this was by far the best stay. It’s hard to be packing up and heading back to the cold and wet. We’ll see you again.
Thanks,
Reilly, Beatrice, Tony and Millie

Dear Rose and Chris
Thank you so much for a lovely stay. This was our first time in Maui and we hope to have many more. We feel so lucky that we found your condo on the internet, it is a true gem! Beautifully decorated, and everything we could have possibly needed. We hope it will be available the next time we plan to come. If I have my way it will be in two years - for our tenth year wedding anniversary.

Thanks Again,

Hi Chris & Rose,

We had a wonderful time in Maui. Your condo is very nice and spacious, clean, and well equipped. Thank you so much for going an extra mile to have the towels, chairs, beach umbrella, boards ready for us... It is also great to have the new utensils, pots, small appliances... The patio is nice and shady, with the most comfortable patio furniture. We really enjoyed the stay and will recommend your condo to everyone!

Thanks again!

Great Condo!! Great Location!! Comfortable beds, linens, and absolutely everything in the condo is a plus for our needs. Enjoyed the patio and furniture for nearly all our meals.

Great time at a great place!  We will long remember sitting around the table playing “Imagine if” and “Loaded Questions”.  We couldn’t have asked for nicer weather – especially when we went to Drift Creek Falls and spotting a gray whale with her calf on “Mr. Max” off of Depoe Bay.  Made our whale watching expedition unforgettable.  Thanks for providing such a wonderfully oriented place for us to call home base. 

Alan & Elizabeth Hodge – Boise, ID. & Amanda & Elijah too!

So since last time I did not get to sign “because I forgot” I had a terrific time!!  We will probably stay here again - so till then.  Thanks!

 Thank you so much for the use of your beautiful home.  It was a great way for our family to celebrate “Christmas” with our parents Joy & Ed 84 & 86 .  Who are the greatest parents in the world!  The spaciousness of this home is so wonderful and easily accommodated our troop of 19.  A great time was had by all.  May thanks & I will certainly recommend you to interested friends.

Dear Crystal Rose Owners,

 

The past three days have been amazing.  The house has been a fun and relaxing environment.  We all enjoyed having so many options of fun activities.  The pool table was the

Biggest hit.  All the kids played game after game.  We would like to thank  you for having so much sleeping space.  Since we have a large group the past years some people have slept in sleeping bags on the floor.  Once again we would like to thank you for letting us stay in your wonderful home.

Thank you!

Chris & Rose,

Thank you so very much for extending your home to us.  We couldn’t have asked for a better house!  You did a fabulous job with all the decorating and really made into a “comfy” resort.   The kids absolutely loved the bunk beds and with the layout of the house it makes you feel like you have an entertaining element on each level.  Wonderfully home & would love to stay again.

 We enjoyed staying in your lovely home.  Our family made memories this week that will last through the years.  Shooting pool, playing games, making meals together and walking to the beach.  What a great place to meet with loved ones.  Thank you for providing such a warm and inviting gathering place.  We will recommend it to others.

Alan & Elizabeth Hodge – Idaho


We will take away so many memories from our stay in this beautiful house.  We played games, laughed our heads off, watched “ancient" movies and hiked the beach.  We found pounds of agates, saw a waterfall at Drift Creek, watched Italy beat Germany in World Cup play and took other day trips along the coast.  Thanks for a comfy home base where we could have fun with our family.

Well, this is my second visit and would like to sell this place to me???  I already feel like I am at home!  I am in love with this little house.  You have a beautiful sense of décor and what makes a person feel comfortable.  In April we had our 1st annual Sisters Weekend and all four of us want to make this place our yearly retreat.  As a surprise gift for my 50th birthday my husband sent my sister and I here to enjoy the hospitalities again.  Then we will be returning for a family weekend in July. 
What a gem you have.  Thank you so much!

We have enjoyed our visit very much and would love to return.  Our group has been traveling together many years and once again feel that we struck gold here.  Even had two nights of spectacular fireworks. It was nice to meet your Rose and Chris.  Joan celebrated her birthday, actually today.  Margie needed respite after losing her mother, mother in law and having a mastectomy within 3 weeks.  Ann and I enjoyed and supported our friends.

“Friends are the family we choose for ourselves.”
Thank you!
