Great mix of location, beach access, and outdoor space with incredible ocean views. We had a family of 5 adults and the three bedroom and two bathroom layout worked very well for us. It is just a two minute walk to a quiet sandy beach, and a 10 minute walk to a snorkeling area at Lydgate Beach. The sun rises are incredible from the patio and then the patio is shaded all afternoon. We also learned to just ask for new bath and beach towels and the front office easily provided them. Only downside is the water treatment plant nearby that you could smell infrequently, but not a big deal for us. We would definitely return to this unit.

Although the condominium's view is stunning, it fails to compensate for the numerous issues we encountered. Despite being aware of the lack of air conditioning, we maintained open windows to facilitate airflow, which resulted in excessive moisture from the ocean. This led to persistent dampness, with walls exhibiting moisture seepage, furniture feeling damp, and clothing developing an unpleasant odor. Our initial two days were occupied with explorations, and we refrained from sending correspondence. However, the discovery of mold in various locations, including our laundry hamper, living room curtains, and kitchen cabinets, prompted our premature departure. Additionally, my husband began experiencing severe sinus issues by the second day. The surrounding area also raised concerns due to abandoned vehicles and homelessness. Our walk behind the unit revealed a person sleeping on the beach and another engaging in drug use. On the third day, we contacted the owner, who forwarded our concerns to the on-site team. While we were only charged for a single night's stay, the total cost, including the VRBO fee, remained excessive considering the property's subpar condition. We had relied on previous reviews emphasizing cleanliness, which contradicted our experience. The issues we observed suggested months of neglect. We documented our findings with photographs to convey the extent of the uncleanliness.

We loved the view from the kitchen, living room and master bedroom. My husband and I loved waking up to see the ocean! We even saw a whale or two from our lanai. The condo has everything you need for a day at the beach with the boogie boards, chairs, a cooler and lots of toys. Perfect spot on the island to visit the north and the south.

OVERALL: Would highly recommend to friends/family, and I would def book here again! BOOK YOUR STAY HERE!
DOWNSIDE: Only complaint was the water pressure in both showers. Would highly recommend hand-held shower head to make it easier/more flexible for all heights and may make the water pressure better. The master toilet had some issues with the seal (water kept running), but my dad did a quick fix. The HDMI cable was also loose, which we figured out and fixed as well. Other than that, unit was great!!
STAY: Exactly as pictured! Place was clean and views were amazing in 323! Stayed first wk in May and the tides were high beginning 11a-evening (not sure I would swim, esp w young kids). May be better to travel to North beaches. But the beach was steps away from the property. No noise complaints or any issues encountered on the property.
LOCATION: I felt this was centrally located to the airport, markets, shops/restaurants. It's also an easy 30-40min drive North and South.
COMMUNICATION: I received responses within 12hrs, which is great IMO! I also saw a recent review before my stay that was alarming and expressed my concerns. Received a prompt response and reassurance that issues were resolved. Upon arrival/during my stay, encountered NO ISSUES.

1. The place was not cleaned properly, 2. The property management office was not interested in helping us 3. Our car fuel was stolen and we reported it and the Seciruty said that the office would contact us but nobody did. 3. Toilet was broken and we reported it and it took us multiple calls before someone responded. A plunger was left for us to deal with the issue. The toilets had to be flushed manually. 4. Shower curtain rod kept falling off. Upon inspection we realized the self adhesive plaster was torn. 5. It says on the sheet of paper we received that office was contactable between 8 am and 4 pm. Nobody’s there at 8:00 am. Only managed to see somebody at 8:30.

The property had a gorgeous view of the beach, and you are on it in under 2 minutes. Not at all crowded, and ample beach gear from the hosts to enjoy it. Everything we hoped it could be. We will be back the next time we come to Hawaii.

This was a perfect location for our family with 5 adult kids. The home was clean and spacious. It was a great location to get to all areas of the island. And, other than the rosters, it was a peaceful area and not crowded.

Customer service was outstanding. The view is unbelievable! The unit we had was clean and thoughtfully appointed and equipped. Bathrooms are a bit tired and need update but everything else was great. Only drawback is no laundry in condo but laundry area was easy to use. Highly recommend
