We had a great stay at this property and it served as a terrific home base for exploring all over the island. It is a very short walk to the shops and restaurants in Kapa’a. It is an easy drive to the north or south shores. It is right on the bike path for walking, running, or biking. Perfect for what we needed!

We loved this location- cute town- and right in the middle of everything. Loved waking up and watching the sunrise. Right on the boardwalk- and beach- although we drove to other beaches for the day- it was nice having the option of it right here. Would definitely stay again!

Aloha Theresa, We are so glad that you had an excellent stay! You are welcome to come back and visit anytime. Mahalo, Garden Island Properties
The condo is a bit dated, but was clean and comfortable. My family had a good time and were happy with the condo. The location right on the ocean was fabulous. And, it is just a block and a half from most of Kapa'a town, which was super convenient.
Do note, the reference to three beds includes a sofa bed in the living room.
