Everything about Hula Bay was perfect. We were a group of 7 adults and 5 kids, and we ALL had the best time. The kitchen is large and equipped with all of your cooking necessities. Sherry clearly thought everything through. I’ve also never stayed in such a well-organized rental before—all the cabinets and drawers in the kitchen were labeled so you could quickly and easily find everything you need.
The house itself is gorgeous and beautifully decorated; the carpets are plush beneath your feet, and there is so much comfortable seating...I found myself inclined to stop and lounge in every room I passed through. The beds were comfy and aplenty—and there were plenty of towels for our group. It was a bit rainy and windy while we were there, but that didn’t stop us from enjoying some time on the outdoor deck—we hope to come back when it warms up and take advantage of the paddle boat available for use! The views inside were amazing and my kiddos had fun watching the geese swimming around.
The real star of this show for us, however, was the theater room. We did movie nights all three nights we were there—the chairs are super comfortable, the sound system is amazing, and they even left cozy blankets on every chair which was such a lovely touch. Any time we lost sight of someone for a few minutes we knew they had managed to find their way to the theater room for some relaxed entertainment. We didn’t get a chance to even use the pool table, but it’s a wonderful feature in the upstairs loft and is in great condition.
Oh! And the sound system and touch lighting throughout the entire house (sound plays out on the back deck too) was incredible and made cooking more fun.
Communication before, during, and even after was quick and friendly. They knew we had kids coming and left out a couple baby gates which was a big help and so nice. I really have nothing but wonderful things to stay about this house and our experience. We were nervous booking a place without reviews after being burnt once before, but we were all SO glad we took a chance on Hula Bay because it was perfect. We are already plotting our next visit. Thank you, Sherry (and AJ)!
