The space was even better than we expected. the views are amazing. The neighborhood was awesome and great for walks and exploring. Hanalei is a quick 10 minute drive. it is a haul to the other side of the island, but we just made two day trips that direction. the views of Hanalei were totally worth any drive around the island! we loved coming back to the room at night to watch the sunset and relax to the ocean waves just outside the back door. amazing!
