…the unit is above the air-exchange handlers, which run all day and night. Most of the day you are out, but when it's time to sit back and enjoy some quiet time on the patio, that's a whole other issue. The air-exchange handlers are so loud that you can not hear yourself think or have a conversation. Then you move indoors. What's the sense of having a patio when you can not enjoy the quiet surroundings. There is a serious mold problem in the stone of the shower stall that needs to be addressed. There seems to be a serious water issue behind the walls. As for the extras, connecting a Nintendo switch to the TV, forget about that too. There is no way to pair or connect your accessories to the TV. It is not a smart TV but antiquated. If there was a way, there were no instructions included. As the sun rises from the east, and the unit faces east, you will then have to close the shades so the heat from the glass warms up the unit. If the owner of the condo took some extra effort, they would apply a tint to the Patio windows, thus making the unit much cooler. The owner has posted a sign asking vacationers not to lower the thermostat past 72. It was warm when you left the curtains wide open but most of the time until the sun starts setting in the west, the curtains are particularly closed all morning and part of the afternoon. What is the sense of having your curtains closed while you are there? It defeats the purpose of enjoying the outside views.
Sleeping accommodations: The pillows were horrible. The unit accommodates 2 adults and 1 child, possibly 2 small kids.
Late Checkout: We asked for a late checkout and the owner denied our request. Check-out was at 11:00. As our flight did not leave until 3:40 we requested an extra hour. Denied!!
Parking. It's valet parking. At $35 a night (Effective March 1, 2022) that adds up quickly. Our suggestion, a win-win for the owner is to include parking as part of the condo use. Stand out from other units. Parking is limited and valet parking is expensive.
Beach extras: There are 2 beach chairs on the patio. This is great but why not include a beach umbrella for use. We heard to rent on Waikiki beach, a beach umbrella ($40), and 2 chairs ($20 for each chair). That also adds up.
Overall opinion of the unit, it was a nice unit, clean. If you do not mind the loud air-handler exchange noise and those little extras, such as no late checkout, then this unit is for your family. Enjoy!!
