"Amazing location, we were able to see the sunrise right from the unit! Great host, proactively checking in with us to make sure we were comfortable and enjoying our stay. Would come again given the chance, thanks!"

"The host was very responsive and friendly. Our A/C didn't work for two days (wasn't bad without it tho as it is winter) but Kathy was quick to get a hold of maintenance. The problem turned out to be a bad A/C remote control. The condo is in a great location - within less than a minute walk to the beach, a few minutes walk to restaurants, stores, walkable paths." 
-Jason M. - (Feb 2026 - Airbnb)


*****

"Kathy is a great host, communicated very well and provided all the details prior to our visit. The place was amazing and in one of the best spots next to the beach. Highly recommend!!"

"We stayed for a 9-day trip and found the room perfectly suited our needs. It was nicely located with easy access to the whole island. The room was as described / pictured with a beach view. Would recommend." 
-Leslie P. - (Feb 2026 - AirBnB)


*****

"We had a great stay at the condo. We really enjoyed the view and the short walk to the beach. We appreciated the table and chairs on the patio so that we could watch the sunrise in the morning and relax outside any time during the day. Kind of a unique spot in the complex ... views of the ocean, but tucked away for a little more privacy. The bed was comfy and the unit had everything we needed."

"Would totally stay here again. Convenient location nearby many tourist areas (ex Wailua Kayak & Canoe, Bike rental place Boss Frogs, Coconut Marketplace) so we were able to make good use of our down time and make every minute count!! The ocean is RIGHT THERE, and there is a little tiki bar and pool with hot tub! Kathy also let us check in a little bit early, it was so nice to not have to lug our bags around. :)"
