The above rating was meant for a different condo we rented in the same complex. Please disregard.
Using VRBO for 20 years, I can honestly say this was the best unit we've ever experienced. It was so well stocked with everything a family would need, things were so well labeled (remotes, cabinets, drawers), and the view was simply spectacuar! Being right on the ocean and witnessing the best sunsets, set the property apart from all others we rented! I would recommend this condo to anybody & everybody!!!
We love this condo. Great location and perfect for our group.
Was a beautiful home
Could not have been more perfect. With two young adult children, the three bedrooms and three bathrooms made for comfortable stay for all. Everything was clean, spacious and in perfect working order. Comfortable beds, large kitchen and dinning room for cooking and falling asleep to the sounds of crashing waves. Didn't need the AC in January with breeze, stairs were good exercise for us young and young at heart. Highly recommended for family stays.
The condo was well located, and the view was amazing. I was very happy to have added a/c, we needed it here. The breezes were good but not enough on their own.The place was not clean enough. Pots and pans were old and blackened. The microwave handle was broken and difficult to use. The loft bedroom bathroom lights were missing and non-LED-so hot I couldn't turn them on without added heat to an already hot room.Even though we were on the third floor-we had several roaches scurrying around. The pest treatment needs to be stronger and/or more often.The condo had beautiful artwork and the furnishings were comfortable and attractive-loved the dining room table!Thank you for sharing your place.
Beautiful place to stay, relax and unwind. Owner is easy to work with. Everything you need is right there in condo. Go to Walmart for anything you need priced very reasonable.. Be aware that most everything closes down early evening on the island.
We loved the accommodations and the lanai. Everything was as described. The availability of snorkel and beach gear was a nice plus. Very appreciative of the AC!
Wonderful Spring Break vaca! We had everything we needed. Condo was fully stocked! Even enjoyed using the beach chairs, umbrella & boogie boards.
The stay was good overall. The condo was not as clean as it should've been. The washing machine was moldy. The bedding/sheets smelled bad. AC is not included (but is available) and you don't really need it but the screens were torn. Overall, the condo has great potential but needs some maintenance. It was spacious and convenient and one could not get a better view of the ocean, sunsets or stars.
Nice place to stay! Loved the ocean views, and the beds were very comfortable.
We had an amazing time staying at this property. The location is unbeatable—literally steps from the ocean! You can’t get any closer to the water. The house itself is well-equipped with everything we needed, from kitchen essentials to beach gear. It’s perfect for groups, with three private areas that were ideal for our three couples. We all had our own space but could still come together to enjoy the amazing views and shared amenities.The pool was a great spot to relax, and the pickleball courts were a fun bonus! We also never had any issues with parking, which was a big plus. The owner was fantastic with communication, always prompt and helpful with any questions. Overall, this place exceeded our expectations, and we’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a fantastic Hawaiian vacation!
We absolutely enjoyed our stay in this condo. Other than sleeping, we probably spent 90% of our time on the lanai. What a beautiful view of the breaking waves! Everything about this property is exceptional.
Being able to see and hear the ocean was such a complete experience and a wonderful property to boot! Home came with everything you need for snorkeling, beach time, racquet sports or simply relaxing by the pool. The only problem was that our trip went by too quickly.
Lovely location. Amazing weather. No bugs. Mara rays and volcanoes… wow
Fantastic family vacation and watching a dear friend cross the finish line at Ironman championship
Loved Shawna's place. Everything was great, especially the sound of the ocean and the views! The place is really close to Kahalu'u beach, which has good options for snorkelling. The place is stocked with equipments for Tennis, boogie boards, pool noodles, which was very convenient. We would definitely stay there again.
Everything went perfect throughout our whole process. The condo was perfect for our family Every question we had was answered right away Thank you
This is a beautiful property and the photos are accurate. There was ample space for our family of 4. The kitchen had everything we needed and more than your average property. We encountered some dirty dishes so gave a 4 star for cleanliness. But overall, the unit was otherwise very very clean. The location is perfect with gorgeous ocean view. We loved eating meals outside on the Lanai. Just be aware there are several flights of stairs to get to the unit. The grounds are quite beautiful and entry was easy. Communication with management was great.
We are a group of 3 couples who enjoy traveling and diving together. This condo and location was absolutely perfect. 3 bedrooms 3 baths right on the water front with a huge lani. Who could ask for more. Close to groceries restaurants. And beaches it was perfect for our trip. We paid the extra for the ac and it worked wonderfully. I would definatly recommend this well equipped condo.
Love staying here.
