Nice location, very close to a very nice beach. This is a great place for those wishing to get away for a few days. The cottage had everything one would need. However, it does not have AC, which was difficult during the hot and humid weather this week. It's also set in a residential area, so you'll experience the local dogs barking and the neighbors doing what neighbors do. It's also a drive into Kailua or Hawaii Kai if you need to do some more intense shopping. I would recommend this cottage for a 3-5 day get away only. You might find yourself a bit restless if you're there longer. Ana did a great job of informing me of all I needed and the cottage has all that you would want . Loved having the grill and snorkeling gear right there.
