We were very disappointed to learn that unit was right on the street near a stop sign. The noise from the traffic was very noticeable, especially in the mornings. Sleeping in was impossible. Also, prospective tenants need to be informed that unit is up three flights of stairs with no elevator and 4 flights down to the pool. Otherwise, unit was spacious, clean, well-supplied and the view was great.
I was not happy with the inflexibility of changing arrival dates. The unit is in need of an update. The narrow galley kitchen has no place to sit or dine. The only table seating is a high top, small wooden table on the lanai with not very comfortable chairs. The primary bedroom needs a bigger ceiling fan and/or more fans in general. It gets quite warm, and with the windows open, the traffic noise is extremely loud. I realize in Hawaii no AC is the norm, but it would be helpful to your guests to make that clear.Lanai also needs ceiling fans. The lanai is the only comfortable place to hang out, but without fans or more seating options it is limited. The pool is spectacular, but there is only one key to access the gate to the pool and the gate to the shoreline, which is inconvenient when you have four guests. You could be easily be locked in or locked out if someone else has the key! There definitely needs to be two keys for these gates.
