Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property was fine. It's the 3rd time we've stayed in this complex. TBH I won't necessarily look for your managed properties to stay in. The two lighting issues were unfixable during our stay. Both were in the two bathrooms and really affected the usage. The downstairs MAIN light was out and upstairs the light over the tub was out. With the shower curtain closed it was really hard to see. Plus, the multiple text messages telling me to sign electronically a VERY long document that I could only access on a phone screen was REALLY annoying. I didn't even know who you were since I booked this through airbnb. I finally called and was told to "ignore the texts." The unit was nicely appointed but felt very sterile and corporate. We prefer places individually owned and serviced by the owners. Your check out chore list is a bit long since we paid a cleaning fee. If you want to treat this place as a corporately owned business then don't expect ME to do the cleaning prep. BTW I am NOT "Marcia from Irvine"

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We very much enjoyed staying here. We would goto the lanai in the morning to have breakfast and in the evening to watch the sunset while having chai. It was wonderful to see the ocean from the bedroom. Good privacy. Good amount of space and clean. All appliances worked. We had issue with one thing and mgmt offered to come and fix, but we said that it was okay to fix after we depart. It had AC and plenty of beach towels. A little dated, but not a big deal.

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed the rental and if had many amenities like A/C and washer and dryer. The view outside was spectacular and we were steps from the beach. However, the maids did not put clean sheets on the bed. They reeked of musty odor and the comforters likely are not washed in between guest stays due to its smell. We had to wash sheets, pillowcases and comforters just to ensure its cleanliness.

The view from the Linae is stunning and green turtles swim in the water below - truly a lovely Hawaii setting!

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We booked this place because of the views we saw in the pictures and they did not disappoint. We ate most of our meals and watched the sunset from the lanai. The small yard was private and very relaxing. The unit had everything we needed and the appliances in the kitchen worked well. Internet was strong. Added bonus was having A/C! However all of the furniture is dated and could use a refresh, and the TV is small. Recliners on the patio would have been nice since we spent so much time outside. We loved the property but a few upgrades would make this property perfect.

Pros: Love the ocean front townhomes for the daily sunset. Nice pool & bbq area as well as tennis courts. Whole complex if very well kept. Also, great snorkeling beach close by that is walking distance. Cons: Very dirty floor. As soon as I stepped into the house, I immediately felt the grittiness of the floor. So dirty that it made our socks and feet black. Second dirty item is the rice cooker. The funny thing is, there is a note to wipe it clean but it was so dirty that it could not be cleaned. I couldn't use it, it was disgusting. Third con is the sofas are old not very comfy. Fourth con, only one roll of paper towel. It was already in the holder so it's probably the leftover from the previous renter and there was no back up roll. I'm reserved the place for a week, at least have a second roll. Finally the fifth con, no designated parking spot.

The location was amazing and the PropMgr and her assistant were just so nice. Made for a wonderful family holiday.

Views are incredible. Best in this resort and maybe all of Hawaii! Sunsets every eve, almost empty beach, turtles and snorkelling on doorstep. Condo really well set up and comfortable. Property manager really responsive and helpful (even bringing us cooler when we had just failed to find where other one put away). If looking for peaceful beautiful spot in Hawaii this spot is perfect.
