The location of this airbnb is stellar! Just across the main road from Ted's Bakery and a few minutes walk to Sunset Beach. About 20 minutes to Haleiwa (which is the closest town). It was also quite clean inside, though the outdoor shower sounded much more lovely in description than it was in reality.
The studio is down a stone pathway so my husband had to carry our very heavy suitcase rather than being able to roll it (we were a week into our trip when we checked in and had gathered many souvenirs along the way!) We were also disappointed that there was no on site parking as listed and at the time we arrived (mid-day) all street parking was taken by beach goers. Lastly, the TV did not work. (Yes, it turned on but it did not get any channels as a message saying "bill has not been paid" appeared at the bottom of the screen.) Not a huge deal since we are not big TV watchers but we did get into bed one night hoping to turn it on and were disappointed.
One last note-- there is another airbnb unit behind this one and they have to walk past the wall of windows rendering the unit quite un-private. Not ideal for a romantic getaway.
We did purchase coffee and creamer on our way to the airbnb so we could make it in the mornings however there no coffee filters so the first morning we skipped coffee and purchased some later that day at Foodland. One last gripe-- and I don't mean to complain! The location is so close to the main road that it's quite noisy. We were woken up one morning to jackhammers as a repaving project was going on. Quite a change from the birds we heard waking up at our previous stay in Honolulu.
While the location is lovely and the unit itself was clean and tidy, I don't know that I'd suggest it for couples looking for a romantic getaway (as we were celebrating our anniversary.) Better for a single person who wants to surf Pipeline.
