Newly renovated 2 bedroom, 1.5 bath w/ mountain view, 1 mile from Makaha Beach

Condo was comfortable. Enjoyed the pool and all the peacocks! Location was a bit out of the way and traffic was busy at times. Basics really need to be stocked - had to contact the property manager about getting some toilet paper, paper towels and the laundry card. Also batteries are out in the TV remote and fan/light remote in the 2nd bedroom.

The condo itself was very nicely done. Had plenty of room for everyone. The issues we had was there was no AC unit. It is very uncomfortable at night. Keeping windows open and fans going it was still very hot. Because the windows were open we could hear everyone walking by, (the condo is next to a common area and pool) and since it was ground level everyone walking by could see in since windows were open and curtains were sheer. A little unnerving for me at night time knowing people could potentially see me and my children sleeping. And the peacocks and chickens. No AC unit, windows are open you can hear them bright and early every day!

The laundry situation was very confusing. I wished it was explained more of how and where to load the money in the pay card for the laundry room. This would have saved me multiple trips to the office trying to figure it out. And that the machine only take a certain amounts of money. By the way you don’t get your change back.

The local beach was great, and my kids enjoyed the pool. It is a fairly quite neighborhood.

Makaha valley had suffered some fire days before we arrived. The areas completely surrounding the Plantation were still smoldering when we arrived. Not that the owners could do anything about that, but the entire condo (no ac, windows open) smelled heavily of smoke and never really was able to get the smell out. It is in all our clothing and suitcases. Someone with breathing issues or a lung disorder would not be able to stay. The smoke smell was heavy especially when first few days we were there. Hopefully they can deep clean things and get the smell out. Coming home i had to air out our luggage several days to get the smell out. Again this nothing that the owner themselves could have prevented. But a warning about the issue would have been nice. I had heard about the fires and contacted the owners to make sure they were not evacuated. I got a response back quickly and was told the condos were not evacuated and that there might be a smoke smell. It would have been nice if they would have contacted me first. I would have been very upset not knowing about the fires and showing up to the condo in that condition. Or showed up in Hawaii and found out that it has been evacuated and we had no where to stay.

IF the unit had an AC unit it would have been perfect! The condo was set up great and had all other conveniences, plenty of rooms for our family of five, it was clean (besides the smoke smell).

i would stay hear again , i will refer this place to my friends and coworkers

I spent 8 nights and it is comfortable.

We loved our stay in this condo! While it was a drive to most attractions, the closest beach to the condo is pristine and we wished we had spent more time there. The owners really have thought of everything too. There were games to play, scuba gear and beach chairs to use, and the kitchen had every item needed to make meals. They even included a box of dark chocolate macadamia nuts as a welcome gift! We will definitely book this condo for next time.
