The house was wonderful. We loved our stay. The rooms were just big enough. Beds were decently comfortable with beautiful furnishings in each room. There were convenient places to put luggage, the lighting, fans, and air conditioning worked perfectly, and it was stocked with everything we could possibly need: laundry soaps (two different kinds to choose from) several baskets for sorting clothes, and even drying racks; beach gear such as boogie boards, water shoes, beach chairs, a large portable cooler bag, and snorkel sets; lotion and soaps in the bathrooms and showers; a few kids books, legos, and drawing supplies. The furnishings and art were updated and beautiful for the locale. We did wish there were a few more snorkel sets and boogie boards - one of the child's size boards was broken in half under the cloth cover - but we have a family of six, which might be more than the host normally accommodates. I appreciated that Malia was easy to contact, and answered the few questions and requests for advice that we had very promptly - less than 12 hours. She contacted me immediately via text when I left a few items behind, so I could come back and pick them up.
We did a LOT of laundry (subsequent to daily trips to the beach, which I assume most people do when staying), and it would have been nice to have the laundry room in the house. It is in the garage, which is attached to the home, but not directly accessible. You you have to walk out the front door, onto a small porch, and then back into another door into the garage. Thus, as it is a garage area, it felt less clean, and required walking through two doors and removing/putting shoes on every time that we needed to check on the laundry machines.
Great location - very quick and easily accessible from the main highway, and very near Queen's Bath, Hideaways beach (not a trek for the faint of heart), the Princeville grocery store, etc.
