I'm not finding many reviews of this place. I'm guessing it's either relatively new or the name was recently changed.

No, it's been around a long time. I stayed there about 6 years ago. It's a perfectly decent condo complex, but it's not on the beach - it's probably a mile or so from the nearest beach. It's right on the border of Kihei and Wailea. Joe's is a really good (but not cheap) Bev Gannon restaurant that's a short walk away from the complex. Probably the reason you don't see many reviews is that individual units vary by who owns and manages them, so reviews don't add a lot of value. It's what I'd call a midrange complex - better than most in Kihei, but not as upscale as most others in Wailea. Assuming you have a rent-a-car, it's fine. If not, the location would be rather isolated from stuff you'd like to do, other than play tennis (It adjoins the Wailea Tennis Center). There are several pools. but they are all quite small - similar in size to a backyard pool of a house.
