We had an amazing time here, where do we start? The condo is decorated beautifully! It has all amenities you need for a day at the beach, a night at home or a morning watching the turtles and dolphins from your deck! (Geoff and Amanda have really thought of everything! Even down to having extra sunscreen if needed)
Geoff was an amazing host! He provided us with a great list of things to do, places to go, what's in the condo, was very responsive and great to deal with!
The bay outside the condo was a great place to relax. It offers a protected place to swim, a small area with gently sloping sand into the ocean on one side which is great for swimming or kids, a deeper center with sealife through the reef and even some cliff jumping off the far side! Everyday we would watch turtles from the deck, and sometimes they even visited while we were swimming!
The only reason we took a star off was the noise from the road in the bedroom. It is on a busy highway and the bedroom is roadside and it's just using the typical glass louver type windows. HOWEVER...lol at the end of our trip we spoke with the handymen and the new windows were in for the condo which will remove that problem completely! See they do think of everything!
It's important to note that this is a more residential area of Oahu and with that you will see homeless areas, cars up on blocks and it has a bit of a rougher feel etc. ( this is also true of the areas around Waikiki, North Shore or other communities, so don't let it fool you) But the people are amazing, the condo complex is excellent, the lack of tourism is refreshing, beaches and snorkeling on that side is great and everything is about an hour away max, if you want to go!
Although the condo and area are not the Hilton on the outside, Geoff and Amanda make it feel like it on the inside! Look past the area and see the gem, visit the markets, the beaches, the sealife and experience Aloha! Enjoy!
