To the ten Irish girls crammed into two small units in a once quiet west side condo for the summer, shut the hell up! If you wanted a place where you could pretend you’re on MTV Spring Break you should have spent a little money and stayed down the beach in Ka’anapali. Where you are now is not a resort. People live here. We pay rent, and therefore we have to go to work in the morning. Yes, even on weekends! It’s time for you to respect those of us who call Maui our home. You’re also apparently rude and obnoxious on the bus, throw cigarette butts into people’s plants, and are ridiculously bad tippers ($4 on $50?!). Yes lasses, word travels rather quickly on this little island of ours. I understand that you’re even disliked by most of the staff and patrons of the local Irish pub! It’s all good though. Soon enough you’ll disrespect some local girls and then you’ll be eating your next Sheppard’s pie through a straw.

    I don't know if it's just me but it seems more people with work visas are getting jobs on the westside. While a great number of our permanent residents are struggling with unemployment.

    I live here

    I live next door to these inconsiderate girls and have had to deal with the nightly noise for the past 2 months. The homeowner who rented to them will not take any responsibility for his guests as is stated in our house rules. I am not a violent person but when abrubtly awakened @ 1-2 am every night it is hard not to want to strangle them. Maybe if it were you having to deal with it you might feel differently. "Sheppard" is perfectly acceptable spelling by the way. Try to go back to sleep after being startled from it.We have called police, and asked them numerous times to quiet down to no avail. Everyone who lives here appreciated the article and wish we knew who wrote it.It was great!!! If it wasn't happening to me it would be funnier.Where is their "aloha"?

    and we got free rent when we were there, I think not, we were probably 4 or 5 times your rent!!!!! so we also had to work(even at weekends) to get money for rent and TIPS, just because you heard one story about some Irish people not giving tips it doesn`t mean that all Iriah didn`t give tips.
    Yaeh there was some parties, but that is what we expect when we go on holidays and its nice to read the last line "Sheppard’s pie through a straw" very thoughtful.......

    we happen to know a few of them from drinking sessions. There actually a bit dry and dont drink that much compare to normal irish people. Those girls are medical students and some of our most educated and respectable people in Ireland. Everyone in ireland pisses in bushes and drops cigarette butts, its our culture!!We're coming next year.watch this space!
