We arrived in the night and found our reserved parking spot (so convenient) got to the door and when we opened we were treated to a property even more beautiful than the pictures suggested. The rooms are big, the bathrooms are nice (especially having three in Hawaii!)
This review is going to be long, but it’s meant to really give you confidence in booking.
Kitchen - very well
Stocked with equipment, very good appliances and cookware. Living room, you won’t spend much time here because hey it’s paradise, but ample comfy seating and a great tv.
Lanai - balcony - huge. View of the ocean, pool, golf course and so many trees. Done out here as much as you can on big table. The grill works good, so use it to keep the heat out of the house and enjoy the view while cooking.
Bedrooms - master is lovely with access to lanai, high ceiling like the living room and attached bath with sliding door for toilet and shower privacy.
The second bedroom is huge and has a portable air conditioner which you don’t need to turn lower than 75 as it is very efficient for this room. The second bath is right outside this room and also the main bath for daily usage. It houses full sized washer and dryer as well, so pack lighter than you would for an overpriced hotel and enjoy this amazing amenity.
Loft - send your kids up here (spiral stair case ) for twin beds and a little bath. They slept like rocks up there :-). I will note, you don’t want little kids - under 8/9 up here, to much risk for falling on the stairs. Otherwise it’s a rare treat to have so many REAL beds for such a rental.
They included four chairs and some beach mats for usage as well as plenty of towels. There are two small but very functional umbrellas as well.
As for stuff to do, research in advance and early booking is the way. Luaus can get booked up, we recommend the Hilton (40 minute drive north)
My daughter took surfing lessons at Kona surf shop two miles north and it was a lifetime memory. They got her up on the first try!
The owners/managers are so responsive and wonderful. We are coming back again and I hope this review helps you make a good decision. Stay here :-)
