What an amazing 5 days!!! It was so hard to leave! I had looked at the property pictures so much online prior to our trip that when we arrived it was just surreal that I was actually there standing in the house I had viewed on line so often! LOL! The sunsets did not disappoint! Great location and amenities, from beach chairs, beach towels, and snorkel gear, to kitchen cookware supplies. Just an absolutely beautiful property! The host was so quick to respond to any questions I had prior to our arrival, and the directions for use of the house once we arrived was outlined well! We couldn't have asked for anything more!

We had an amazing time. The house is beautiful and well cared for. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. We spent most of our time gazing at the ocean and watching whales jumping just offshore. Rest and relaxation was our goal and we got plenty of it!

Pictures cannot describe how beautiful this place is! You never want to leave. There are at least 5 spots that compete for becoming your favorite one: overlooking the whole area in the crow's nest, sitting on chairs in the ankle deep section of the pool, sitting at the bar outside overlooking the pool area and ocean, reading on the cushioned lawn chairs on the patio in the shade, sitting on the sofas with the pocket doors wide open, etc. In short: the perfect vacation home. Very nicely decorated with art. You feel at home immediately.The three bedrooms each have their own, very quiet, split air conditioning. Each bedroom has its own, spacious bathroom.It's located in a very safe area. All attractions of the island can be reached conveniently and it's only a short run to Target, Costco, restaurants, and the town.The beautiful, sandy beach, Hapuna Beach, is less than half hour away. There is also a little beach in walking distance where you can get into the ocean.It's about a 2 hour drive to the volcano.Swimming with manta rays is close by.

We've stayed in many vacation rentals, but this one stands out. The open-air living room is amazing, creating a seamless connection between the indoors and the stunning natural surroundings. It allows the breeze to pass though and is a perfect view for sunset.The view from the crows nest is second to none. Arguably the best sunset viewing of the entire neighborhood.The location is another huge plus. Being near the end of a gated community means peace and quiet with very few passing cars. It also puts you in the perfect spot to explore. We loved that we were just a 5 to 10 minute walk to the kid-friendly Queen's Bath beach or to Old Airport Beach (Kailua). This is a truly special place, and we can't wait to come back!

Incredible home in a private guarded neighborhood close to dining and shopping! We had an amazing time and was the best vacation we have had as a family due to this incredible home. Everyone had a great time and opening the home and enjoying the views and cool ocean air was the best!

Our family enjoyed 6 wonderful nights in June. The house is beautiful and the views are magnificent. The location is perfect for walking to town or to the beach. Our daughters really loved the tidal pools in the backyard. We would highly recommend this house and hope to return. Thank you!

This property was amazing. We can't imaging a better view and enjoyed all of the amenities. After needing to re-locate our vacation due to the Lahaina fires, it was nice to just stay at the property and relax.
