Very peaceful place to stay away from the city. Just get groceries nearby and no need to leave! The beach is right out the window, lots of space to lay in the sun and only a few people out there so it’s nice and private. You get sunset views from the balcony, and we didnt experience any noise from cars or neighbors, only the wind (which is very intense in the building) whistled through the cracks in the bedroom window when closed, but after cracking them open to let the air pass through it wasn’t bothersome. Unit is very nice, well kept, and comfortable. I will recommend it to anyone I know going to Oahu.
