If you're looking for a true north shore experience, this location perfect! Takasan and Mimi were extremely accommodating, considerate and prompt with communication. We were able to snorkel, scuba dive, horseback ride and attend a luau all within 1-5 miles away. Traffic backs up on the Kam. highway, but everyone is considerate on the roadway. Foodland is at the end of the street before going to the Kam. highway and super convenient. Overall, perfect north shore location and highly recommended hosts!
