Beautiful property with fantastic water front views that can be enjoyed from the living room, dining room, kitchen, master bedroom and outdoor seating areas on lanai and around the pool. Great location close to two different parks/beaches. Great for snorkeling.
Great location on Ali’i Drive. The house was what you would expect for a beach rental. Very well stocked. Note- I didn’t recall reading the property was NOT air conditioned. There was a great breeze at night and fans provided, but if that’s important to you, it’s worth mentioning. The waves literally lull you to sleep each night.
This place absolutely did not warrant the price we paid. We stayed during a busy time (Christmas/NYE) however, the place was not worth even half the amount we paid. We were charged four times what they usually charge. I can understand charging two or three times more for the busy season, but four times plus the quality of the home, it was absolutely not worth it! The house was not clean, the carpets were old and messy. I would pull dishes out of the cupboard, and they would be dirty. The refrigerator and dryer both have rust on them. The pictures on the listing does not show rust. The most disappointing thing was the pool was not heated. Nowhere on the listing did it say that the pool was not heated. It never got warm enough for us to enjoy (the ocean was warmer than the pool). The pool was also not comfortable, it had no steps to go into the pool. We rented the house to have a pool and we could not use it, very frustrating! The lanai was dirty, yet we could not hose it off because the house rules stated that water would leak into the garage underneath. Also, the owner came by the house and acted like they didn't know it was being rented and then asked if they could come in and look at some ceiling fans. I feel like I was completely taken advantage of by being charged a ridiculous amount of money. Very disappointing!
House is roomy with large dining and living spaces. Kitchen is very small with outdated appliances and few amenities. The decks are nice and the pool is large and fairly warm for the size without a heater. The views are spectacular and the location is great. The beds needed to be upgraded, but the bathrooms are nice. The downstairs unit required a good airing out and the house became exceptionally warm in the afternoons. Some items needed fixing, but the PM was very responsive. Overall a nice stay.
