Our stay in Hauula was wonderful, thanks to our accommodations andBen and Carmen, the caretakers. The property itself was in great condition. Nicely furnished (almost a bit nerve racking with four kids in tow) with a small amount of toys available for the kids. That was nice touch. The best part was the beach gear available to us, including chairs, boogie boards, sand toys, towels and umbrellas. We never needed the air conditioning, and there was ample space for nine of us, even with just the two bathrooms.

Carmen and Ben were very friendly and helpful, and went out of their way to help us with any concerns. While we were concerned about disturbing them (as they live below the residence) most of the living space is over the carport, so we felt bit better about the noise the kids were creating.

The only drawback was there wasn't any dressers in the bedrooms. Apparently they will be arriving soon, and it certainly wasn't a deal breaker. There are drawers in the master bed frame which we didn't realize until near our departure. The closets are huge and were helpful. With the blowup mattress in the third bedroom I am not sure how you get dressers in the room anyway.

The nearest beach was a ten minute walk on the highway, but with all the beach gear it was easier to drive. The nearest grocery was across the street, but Foodland 5-10 minutes down the road had better selection.

Overall we had a fabulous experience and would recommend it to anyone.
