We bought last year for more than $1 but still very inexpensively after staying here a year ago May. In fact...WE'RE HERE RIGHT NOW. It's a solid, clean nice resort that is more of a residence kind of place than a fancy smancy "resort"...and that's what we love about it. I just walked across the street this morning...on my feet for maybe three minutes and did a morning swim in the Pacific before breakfast for maybe 30 minutes.
We've been sitting out on the Lani drinking our kalua drinks, watching the golfers on the Kapalua golf course and admiring the bannana trees with bunches of bannana's on them. BBQ'd NY steaks last night poolside and have been eating very well. One disclosure however...the place is surrounded by private houses and they all seem to raise fighting cocks...so the roosters crow a bit before dawn and ocassionally through the day. After you adjust it becomes part of the character here.
I think the most recent $1 unit was for a studio, but a 1 bdrm, 2 ba like what we own went for $5 a few days before!
Seriously, it's a bargain...no real down side other than the roosters and something to snatch up!
BTW, I'm now using my Verizon Treo phone as my broadband conection for my laptop here at the resort and the service is perfect. Speeds are as high if not higher than our home wifi. If you have verizon broadband service, you can bypass the access charge they offer for in your room internet.
