The Sugar Shack was perfect for our family vacation, and was just as advertised, if not better! It comfortably fit all 18 of us (8 kids, 10 adults), which we were delighted to find. The house is located right across the street from a great sandy beach, and a short drive to the main Kona strip. There were plenty of pool toys (and floaties), snorkel gear, water shoes and fins of all sizes, boogie boards, and sand toys.
Michelle was a fabulous host, and was always very responsive when we had questions. She was also very gracious when we had a boogie boarding incident which resulted in one of the boards being cracked in half.
It is worth noting that the house is located in a quiet neighborhood with working neighbors, and is expected that quiet hours are followed (8a - 9p). However, these are Hawaiian-wide quiet hours, and not unexpected or surprising.
We would return to the Sugar Shack in a heartbeat!
