All,
Jack and I head to Maui tomorrow after a wonderful week at WPORV.
This property rocks. Amazing we can access it easily with StarOptions. If it was mandatory I would buy it (yes I realize that is a bit of a contradiction).
Last year we were in building 5/hammerhead room and it was beautiful. This year we requested building 6 or 7 and they put us in a ground floor room in B7, facing the main grass area.
We requested these buildings because we love the grills on the bluff - what a view - and spent many evenings there. Having been here a week, I like being on this side of building 7 because the patio is shaded late in the day (when I want to sit there).
The other thing that is unique to my other Hawaii properties are the birds - there are so many of them and the birdsong is tremendous. This property is truly stunningly beautiful.
We had less rain than last year (and it didn't bother us last year). Typically 15-30 minutes after sunrise and then an occasional afternoon shower. Only once this week did it really rain in the afternoon for a couple hours, otherwise we could be anywhere in the islands.
Spectacular place - I wish it was mandatory.
Best,
Greg
