We had a wonderful stay and would definitely recommend this property. The location is fantastic—just steps from the ocean, and the beach was never crowded. One of our favorite experiences was snorkeling nearby and seeing puffer fish, colorful tropical fish, and sea turtles every single day.The location was also perfect for exploring Oahu. We loved being close to the Polynesian Cultural Center and Kualoa Ranch. Stopping at Costco on the way from the airport and shopping at Safeway during our stay worked out great. There is also a charming little Catholic church nearby.Carole was an excellent communicator and always quick to respond. We especially appreciated being on the ground floor, which made everything very convenient.A few minor suggestions: Hawaii can be quite humid, and while we understand that many homes do not have air conditioning, a few additional fans might make sleeping more comfortable on warmer nights. The washer and dishwasher both worked but seemed to need a little tinkering. It would also be nice to have a few basic items available such as pens, postcards, and stamps.The no-shoes policy was a bit challenging for my nearly 80-year-old mother, who relies on supportive footwear, so hard floors all week were difficult for her.Overall, we had a relaxing stay and made wonderful memories. The daily turtle sightings, oceanfront location, and excellent communication made this a very special Hawaiian vacation.
