OMG the view!!! Stayed with my husband and 8 year old son. The living arrangements were fantastic, quiet, and the property was beautiful. Fully stocked kitchen, Pool on site was great, fun little putting green, outdoor showers to wash your gear off, right next to the bike path and in walking distance to lots of Hawaiian favorites, Bubba Burger is a must try. Lots of beach chairs, a cooler and ice packs were a huge bonus! 10/10 will be back

Bed linens were poor. Unit dated. Charges were much higher than if we had rented directly from the resort. Location was excellent. View could not be better and swim able beach near by. Easy walk to Kapaa center.

Aloha and thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the oceanfront location, views, and easy access to Kapaa. The condo is regularly maintained, and new cotton sheets or other linens are purchased and replaced as needed to ensure guest comfort. Pricing reflects the oceanfront location, one-bedroom loft layout with a King, Queen, and Twin bed currently provided, and seasonal demand, which is comparable to other units in the area. We appreciate your stay and are happy you were able to enjoy the beach and surrounding area during your visit.

This very clean beachfront condo was perfect for us. Communication was easy and access was even easier. The condo was very clean and quiet. We appreciate it being able to walk into town. We could see the whales in the far distance blowing spouts. The water in front of the condo was perfect for teaching my niece how to snorkel. We had a fantastic week and we’ll probably return in the future.

Great location and views. Very clean and welcoming. The living room furniture is actually updates from photos and has two recliners now. Such an easy place to walk by the icean or into town for a large choice of food options. We only used our rental one day for a quick trip to Poipu. The resort has a lot of easy to use recreational activities. Good communication with Property Manager.

Perfect ocean view

Great location. Rooms all had fans and AC. Bed was too soft for me but others might like. The apartment is dated and we had issues with the sliding door but other than that everything was fine. Property is great. Pool,hot tub, walking distance to shops and restaurants. I would stay here again.

Aloha Liz, Thank you for your review. Glad to hear that you enjoyed the location and property! We appreciate your feedback regarding the slider door and bed. We were happy that maintenance was able to fix the slider door during your stay. A new slider door is currently on order to be replaced. We understand mattresses are a personal preference and have had positive comments on the mattress; however, we will certainly take it into consideration as we continue to make improvements for future guest stays.

Quiet clean and functional

The family needed a place with a washer and dryer (which was conveniently downstairs of the building), a kitchen, and multiple beds for the kids, which this place was perfect for! The loft made it especially fun for the kids. Right on the ocean, and away from the road, the condo was quiet when we needed it to be.
