Well first of all the location is great, an easy walk to the beach, probably less that 2 minutes. The house is on a large lot with lots and lots of room for our two grandkids to run around (ages 1 1/2 and 3 1/2) . One thing that really was nice it the house was not full of clutter, made it perfect for the one year old. Did I mention the great location???
My wife decided last fall to take our son, his wife and the two grandkids to Hawaii. We decided to do it in February which is the coldest month for them. Unfortunately our son due to his work load was not able to make the trip so we were a party of 5 in Marls's house. There was plenty of room for all.
There were bunches of beach toys, beach chairs, masks, fins, and snorkels in the back yard which got used everyday. A couple of boogie boards would had been a real plus, but you can rent them at the surf shop right down the street.
All in all we loved the place and would recommend it and stay here again. It a wonderful vacation home.
