A nice place to get away for a week. The unit is clean, comfortable, and well appointed. Amazing views of the ocean, including the sunsets Hawaii is known for. The complex is well kept and other tenants were friendly and respectful.
There is no AC in the unit, but plenty of fans to keep you cool. This is somewhat problematic in the bedroom, as the window provides a cross-breeze that keeps the place cool, but closing the blinds blocks the air. So you may have to choose between the room being cool or dark.
The local birds greet you with chirping every morning, which could be nice or annoying depending how sensitive you are to noise. There were a couple days when I woke to the sound of construction, or a leaf blower.
Finally, the customer service is not great. The place is managed by a large rental company, so it felt quite impersonal compared to when the host is also the owner. Communication was haphazard, as sometimes they messaged via airbnb chat, sometimes via email, and sometimes via text. Every time I reached out, a different person responded, and their answers felt automated. They have their policies and are not willing to waver from them. Only one small bottle of body wash was provided in the shower. Even for one person, it was not enough for a week’s worth of showers. I asked for an extra bottle to get me through the rest of the week, and they refused. It seemed like a small gesture that would have made my stay, and my impression of the company much more positive… sadly, it seems they are too cheap and inconsiderate to extend this small courtesy
