#909 in Makaha Towers is a great option for your stay. The unit is a studio apartment with one large open room and a large bathroom as the only other room. The place is very clean and comfortable. It is on the quiet side of the island, but the trade-off is planning around peak traffic times. If you are planning on island hopping from the airport, allow plenty of time since even at 6am we encountered traffic jams on the H1. The apartment itself was great for my wife & I. I loved sitting on the lanai drinking my morning coffee and looking out over the valley. However, be mindful that the leeward side of the island is known for spectacular sunsets. If you’re wanting to watch the sun rise, you will miss out since the early mornings here seem a little dreary until the sun peeks over the mountains, which was about an hour and a half after actual sunrise. The beaches here are wonderful, although there are many homeless encampments. And some of the local dining options such as Hanarra Restaurant and Countryside Cafe are worth checking out for local dishes. This was a perfect place for us to stay. It was a little out of the way at times, but the quietness and lack of commercialism made it well worth the drive.
