About this property
Our Home Away from Home, for 2 on 1ST FLOOR. OCEANFRONT POOL
WALK TO TOWN
Aloha! Welcome to our little piece of PARADISE! Our new custom built cabinets and island for food preparation were just competed July 2024. If you love the feeling of being at home while you are on vacation, this is the place to be! Nothing better than staying in a location that is close to town, walkable to lots of restaurants, cocktails, and snorkel/swimming beaches. We welcome you to our "HOME AWAY FROM HOME". Our unit is on the 1st floor. This unit is a vacation rental only. IT IS A NON-SMOKING property, INSIDE AND OUT. Guests have full access to everything in the condo (with the exception, of anything stored and marked "Owners" ). The pool is at the oceanfront, and the BBQ Is located just above the pool area. You must buy your own charcoal. There is also a gated entry to the ocean for snorkeling. Our condo has a Ring doorbell/camera at the front door for your security to make sure no one enters other than the renter. However, in the 25 years that we have owned our unit, we have never had a break-in to our unit. Feel safe!
INTERACTION WITH GUESTS
I always make contact with the guests before renting. Also, once they arrive, just to make sure everything is to their liking and there are no questions.
We co-own this condo with lifetime friends. We come from honest backgrounds. Professionally, the men were high school and college educators. I was an Investigator/ Peace Officer for the State of California and the other owner worked in the jewelry business and accounting. We respect and wish to have others respect our " HOME AWAY FROM HOME"! Our lovely condo is well maintained for our guests. Please see our reviews! We have a partial ocean view from our lanai. We are just a 15-minute walk to the downtown area, with several restaurants, snorkeling beaches, and wonderful sunsets on the way for your evening walk. Our fast secure WIFI, BEACH TOWELS, UMBRELLA, COOLER, and BEACH CHAIRS are there for your use. FREE parking is right behind the condo with only steps to our unit. We also provide BATH SOAP, a HAIR DRYER, HAND MIRROR, IRONING BOARD and extras in the kitchen such as PAPER TOWELS and DISH SOAP. We do not provide coffee. We have a Keurig 1 pod coffee maker as well as a Mr. Coffee maker, in case you prefer to use ground coffee. Many guests leave behind, foil, saran wrap and sandwich bags. You may use them and we hope that you will be courteous and leave some behind for others to use as well. Please join us for a relaxing stay in Paradise!
Please note, there is a 30 day cancellation period.
