Wow! Our stay at the Beach Villas was amazing. The unit is exactly as pictured, although the photos don't do the view justice...it is truly spectacular at any time of day or night. Check in was very smooth and we appreciated being met by Nadia who shared all the info we needed to be comfortable in the condo. There were so many little bonuses, like the rice cooker, super-comfy beds, double dishwashers, plenty of beach chairs and snorkel equipment. There was live music a few nights down at the pool bar, which we could also enjoy from our own lanai. And even though the lagoon in front is protected, you can hear the waves from the oceanfront lanai. We cooked our own breakfasts, but walked somewhere fantastic for dinner each night. We highly recommend Monkeypod and Roy's!! Ko Olina has so many things to do now that you almost don't need a car, unless you want to visit other parts of the island. The kids snorkeled every day in the lagoon, explored hundreds of tide pools along the coast, and rented SUP's at the neighboring Aulani lagoon. We can't wait to go back, and would rent the same unit again in a heartbeat.
