Great location and property. We really enjoyed the outdoor grilling in the pool area, the grills were great and well maintained. View from the balcony is ok, partial ocean and beach view, but a short walk to the pool area to view sunsets in the evening. Road noise was not too much of an issue, really only noticed it when eating dinner on the balcony in the evenings. Having the beach chairs, umbrella, and cooler was very handy for day trips to the beach. I also liked that there were some basic seasonings and kitchen supplies (foil, Ziploc bags, etc) to get us started, we bought what we needed and left behind what we didn't use. Many rental places clear everything out between guests which I find frustrating. Walking to Kailua village was close and convenient. I recommend and would stay again.
