Reviewer Comments:
This was our first time staying at Lokelani. For the last 30 years we've stayed about a mile up the road but it was all booked up for our dates so we decided to give Lokelani a try. We very much enjoyed our stay! I read a lot of reviews before we booked so just want to address a few points - yes it is true that maybe some of the decor/furniture is a bit outdated, but we enjoy the kitsch and also everything was well functioning and clean, and we spent most of our time doing activities or sitting outside so having "outdated" style didn't matter to us because we didn't spend all that much time in the unit. The kitchen was well stocked in terms of plates, cooking tools etc though we needed to restock oils, spices, foil, ziplocs, etc. Laundry machine worked fine, shower was great (water hot quickly, strong water pressure). We like to have the ocean breeze and fans instead of using AC and felt that it didn't get too stuffy/hot at night with just the fan. It is a bottom floor unit so we definitely got woken up by the people above us a few times (children running back and forth early in the morning, and one of the days what we could only assume was packing since we kept hearing slamming noises), so just something to be aware of if you're not an apartment dweller who's already used to noises like this. In terms of beach access, you'll need to be aware that you have to pay attention to the tides, because sometimes it's easy to walk over to the beach in front of the building to the north of Lokelani, but when the tide is high the waves do get pretty strong and I didn't feel safe trying to jump in and swim over to the beach. But in the mornings it was easily accessible and we'd have a nice walk over there. The unit is very close to grocery stores, coffee, takeout, ABC store, gas, etc. So overall, had a great time, we'd come back and stay in this unit again!
