Location of apt was great- 2 minute walk to a few shops/restaurants. 10 minute drive to walmart, Kona brewing company. 15min drive to harbor. We didn't go to the beach, but it was visible from the back of the apartment area, so I imagine just a few minute walk to the beach, too. Apt was clean and very cute. Love the Hawaii decorations and the huge variety of books/guides available. Lots of towels, sun screen, beach mats available. Jake responded to messages usually within minutes! Would stay here again. Mahalo!
