We had a terrific time at this vacation property, hosted by Claudia (which was her family's home at one point). We were greeted with fresh Hawaiian flowers in both units, and local breads (delicious). Made us feel right at home.
The vacation home is a 2 level unit with their individual front doors, but a staircase (outside ) that connects them. The upstairs has a real kitchen, while the lower level has a breakfast kitchen (no stove) but a great toaster and microwave. The bathroom in the lower level was very small, but the rest of the place, location, amenities made up for that 1 aspect.
Each level had all the amenities from cutting boards, rice cooker, and other kitchen items. Outside, they had beach chairs, tatami mats, noodles, water shoes in a variety of sizes, goggles, masks and much more.
There is an outside lanai that was our gathering spot, especially in the afternoon for cards. The bugs do come out around 5pm, so make sure to put on bug spray. Wait for the frogs to serenade you at night...and show up close to your door. The home is just 2 houses away from the water. And 5 more beach parks that offer snorkeling were within 2 miles of the house. It was very conveniently located.
My parents raved about the house, and kept comparing our next vacation spot to Claudia's home. Thank you Claudia for being such a gracious host and providing all the amenities we needed.
