TLDR: I wish I could give this place more than 5 stars because the hosts and the unit were so awesome!
If you're looking for a beautiful, comfortable, clean, and wonderful place, then you should book with Shantel & Gen. The unit was perfect for us (my bf and I stayed there for 2 & 1/2 weeks). As a local returning to the island to visit family and friends, we couldn't have found a better fit!
- great location for getting ALL over the island (hop on H-3 to the middle/Leeward side or head down the Pali or LikeLike to get to town....or even go around the back of the island to the East side or North Shore!)
- close to Windward Mall and a host of grocery/drug stores and restaurants....like, walking distance close!
- so many things provided by the host: a whole closet of beach "stuff", washer/dryer, thoughtful drinks/fruits in the kitchen when we arrived, and plenty of toiletries so we didn't even need to buy stuff!!
- the A/C was wooooooooooonderful! And there are fans in each room (even the bathroom!) so you can keep cool even without the A/C!
- an enclosed and private garage for your vehicle - may not sound like much but you can leave your shoes and beach stuff in the garage securely and not have to worry about bringing them into the house.
- the unit is located on a quiet street and the hosts were respectful of our space and privacy...we heard them/saw them a few times but they were just great!
All in all, we would absolutely recommend these hosts and this unit! When we come back for our next visit, we will definitely try to stay here again!! Shantel & Gen - Mahalo nui loa and we hope to see you guys again!
