We chose this property because of the easybeach access and away from the busy tourist area (i.e. Waikiki). However, there are some pro's and con's. Let's start with the PRO's:
PRO'S:
1) Awesome location with the beach and gorgeous view right outside. You can't beat having the beach for small little ones right outside the doors and also a great view every day.
2) Close to the North shore and Polynesian Cultural Center
3) Quiet and away from busy, hustle tourist areas like Waikiki
CON'S:
1) It looked like the owner renovated the inside a bit. However, the unit is still outdated.
2) The whole condo itself is VERY outdated and old. They're doing renovation at the time we were there. But it's pretty old.
3) Again, this place is out there in the country side so it's quiet and not a lot of things to do. There are a few food trucks nearby and also more food trucks in Laie. However, if you like the busy life style, this place will not give you that.
Overall, we like the location because of the beach access and the tranquility of the countryside feeling. But the unit is a little outdated.
