Brenda's studio was literally 2 blocks from the beach. We had a chance to walk around the block and find hole in the wall eateries that were definitely local favorites. During check-in into the studio, Brenda was so very kind and patient to walk us through the process. Upon entering, the pictures shown were as clear and accurate in person. All you ever need for your stay is all included! The 2 balconies had separate amazing views and were great for having a nice breakfast out there. Also, if you decide to rent a car, just know that it is very difficult to find parking around the area but there is a public parking garage located below the building (entrance on Kuhio). The price was $2 per 30 minutes (I think) and $20 for 24 hours (I'm positive). There was nothing more I could've asked for. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for an alternative to a hotel or resort.
