The host is amazing! She was very attentive and available when needed. The property is a beautiful traditional Hawaiian-style home with gorgeous exposed wood, private well-maintained grounds, and the kitchen is nicely upgraded. And the front yard (non street side) IS the beach! The house boasts peek-a-boo views of the beach and water, but step a mere 30 feet from the house and you are on the beach.The upstairs bedroom has plenty of natural light (bring a sleep mask), a great Juliet deck, and a tub-only bathroom with no air conditioning (A/C). The two downstairs bedrooms have powerful A/C units and share a main-floor bathroom with a small, outdated shower. The detached Casita has space, a powerful A/C, and again a small outdated shower in its private bathroom. The laundry facilities are outside the house accessed through the main floor bathroom exterior door. The outside shower was private, large, and had hot water (as an occupant of the upstairs bedroom - I used the outside shower daily). Overall, the home was perfect for our needs, albeit a bit pricey for what was offered compared to what I was expecting for the cost.
