The photos don't lie. This is literally, accurately, specifically right on the beach. It is not across the street from the beach. It is not a few yards away from the beach. The beach is right there. Now if you want to walk on the sand from the house, that's not this. It is a rocky shoreline but, one of the best snorkeling beaches is within a 5 minute walk. If you are looking from something private that isn't a condo or a hotel - this would definitely be it.

I loved my morning coffee on the lanai and my evening wine watching the surfers. I could see tons of little crabs and even a few turtles right from the lanai. I'll definitely be back.

As for the house itself. I can tell it has been redone within the last few years. The kitchen and baths are pretty modern. Everything was as portrayed.

Thanks for a great Big Island stay!
