My husband and I rented this cottage for 9 days. We thought that the pictures were amazing on the beach so we decided to rent. I can't begin to tell you how great this place is. Though it's between beaches and is the smaller of two houses on the property, we were so happy to be able to rent this house from Patty and her family. The pictures are true and accurate. If you're looking to get away from downtown Honolulu and want privacy to relax, this is a great cottage to rent.
The cottage is perfect size for 2 people. Has a nice size kitchen with everything you could need. There is a table to eat at though we mostly ate outside on the deck as the weather was perfect and the view was amazing. The living room was nice size and had two couches to sit on, plus two chairs and a nice size tv. The bedroom was on the smaller size but the bed was comfy and had ample closet for our items. Bathroom was nice with a standup shower and was clean. The whole house was clean - nothing to complain about.
The other house is off to the left on the property and the family staying there as super nice. We shared the washer / dryer in the garage under the cottage as well as the snorkeling items. It was truly wonderful to stay at the property.
Though the house does sit on the ocean you still hear the traffic. We would hear the scooters rip up and down the highway late at night but it was never bothersome. We did reach out to the property manager as the handle on the kitchen window came off on the 1st crank and she told me that she knew about it so we closed that window and never opened it again. All of the other windows in the house had been updated. Other than that, there were no issues at all with our stay.
Would like to thank Debi, property manager, for letting us check out in the early afternoon as our flight back to the mainland wasn't until 530 pm.
This is definitely a great place to stay and truly want to thank Patty, her family and Debi for letting us stay.
