Zena and her assistant kept us up to date and welcomed. There was no one to greet us upon arrival, but I called the assistant and we got access to the rental.

Rental was as described and the photos are a good representation. The unit is part of Ali'i Resorts, Kamaole Nalu. The room was clean and nice upon arrival. There is no maid service during your stay unless additional is paid.

Parking spaces are SMALL! Parking an SUV really sucks!

The beds were very good and all the furniture excellent, the tables and lanai chairs are all teak. All appliances work. 6 each Laundry and dish washer tablets were there.

We were intercepted by the resident manager for a couple of rule violations, but did not receive the rules prior to or during our stay. I wasn't told of the trash chute, I discovered that by the elevator.

They recycle cans, bottles and glass.

Smoking is allowed only at the smoking area by the office.

There is a Times shopping cart on the 1st floor to bring up your luggage/groceries.

The elevator can have a mind of its own. There is no inspection record posted.

Master Bedroom:
- The wheels atop the doors are broken and don't ride on the runners.

Kitchen:
-Needs an oven light
-Needs new bottle opener (the corkscrew works but the opener is shot).
-Needs knives sharpened and sharpening stone or steel. I sharpened the knives on the file of my Leatherman.
-More trash bags would be nice, as well as a recyling bin.
-The radiant cooktop takes like 30 minutes to cool. (just and observation)

Bathroom:
Overhead lights are missing a lamp each.

All windows are jalousie, some need some help to stay open. You can't close them unless you REALLY like heat, so you will hear the birds and surf all the time. You get used to it, but the first morning the birds are LOUD. I found I rather missed them upon leaving though.

There are 4 beach chairs available on the lanai, I was not told of them ahead of time - nice Tommy Bahama chairs. We left behind two Body Glove (Costco) boogie boards.

There is a small washer/dryer stack, 1 tired/1 decent broom and a dustpan. There is a vacuum cleaner, extra blankets, pillows but no extra towels, that would nice to have. Each of us had a beach towel, but 3 max will fit in the washer!

An box or oscillating fan would be nice to have tucked into a closet.
