Susan’s apartments are a little jewel on the big island. They’re directly across the street from Magic Sands Beach, a short walk to Magic’s Beach Grill, and there are bikes available at a nearby bike rental stand. The apartments themselves are adorable and homey, with all the kitchen amenities you’ll need, plus swimming, snorkeling and other beach gear. Laundry on-site makes long-term stays a breeze.
Susan herself turns this into one of the best AirBnB stays you’ll ever have. She is kind, responsive and helpful. I enjoyed hanging out and chatting with her on the porch when she’d stop by to check in with me. The AC went out a few days into my stay, and Susan had it professionally handled (replaced!) in less than a day. She called my attention to the fact that my flight didn’t leave until 10:50 PM on the day that I planned to check out, and then allowed me to extend my stay for an additional night so I would have some place to spend the day and keep my bags - this was a life saver, effectively adding another day of relaxation to my trip.
I look forward to staying with Susan again on my next trip to the big island!
