Amazing location, AC was a big benefit (although the main bedroom across from bathroom doesn’t have AC so you have to sleep with door open if you want AC from the rest of unit to make it into the bedroom.) Checkin was a breeze and communication with host was super quick and responsive. Couldn’t get pool code to work but we just reached over the gate to unlock it (any adult can reach). WiFi was fast enough for Conf calls and the location was amazing as well being so close to Safeway, Starbucks and Kapaa in general. Bottle of wine in the unit was very nice gesture that we enjoyed. There’s a giant pummelo tree that blocks most of the view of the neighboring parking lot, which makes the lanai much more enjoyable actually as you’re looking at green leaves instead of an ugly parking lot. Everything was great except the place is in need of a deeper cleaning. All the common turnover areas to clean were clean, but the floors were dirty (seems like they aren’t getting mopped between guests because there’s a pretty long term build up of general dirt across whole floor) and there’s visible spills of stuff on various uncommonly cleaned surfaces like the bathroom door, couch arms, floor trim around the house.
All in all I would 100% recommend this rental, but encourage host to give it a deep clean as well. Thank you!
