The pictures were just as it was on the ad. Beach was just a seconds stroll down. It is a park so a park ranger will let you know when it is closed (although there is a sign near park parking lot). Some reviews say not "ocean front" it IS ocean front you can't see too much of the ocean on the balcony but the property IS ocean front property. The property was nice and well kept. It was quiet, the room is not near the pool so that was nice. The pool looked lovely and well kept, it had a hot tub, and a bar. Other people said they really liked it (we did not use it, we used the ocean). Parking was great (plenty of it) there were no problems. There is a security guard (we saw nightly) on the property so you and your things are safe. There are lots of restaurants, and shopping around. Nida was very responsive with questions we had (my user error). She has things for you to use (A small cooler lunch box type thing, two beach chairs, a beach umbrella, fishing poles, and boogie boards). Nida even suggested great places to eat, drink/happy hour, and shopping. Just treat the condo like you would your own home and then some. Clean up after yourself, respect the property and rules everything will be great and you will have a wonderful vacation! Also I just have to say don't forget where you are HAWAII=water there ARE roaches and we only saw one that had come in but it was dead because they have pest control. We have stayed in Oahu at Aulani Disney resort and saw waaay more than that so it was a pleasant change. Those who write about that just remember where you are.
BIG thank you Nida for EVERYTHING we had a wonderful time! Your property was amazing and for a great price!
