Christine's unit in Menehune Shores is in an excellent location especially for families with little ones. The beach behind the condo (not the beach pictured but out the back door to the right) is protected by a 500 year old wall built by the natives and is where all the locals take their babies to play because the waves are so small. This is also where dozens of turtles come to sleep at night! Note, the beach in the pictures is filled with washed up coral so you will need your shoes but the other side has sand like silk. There is a great indian restaurant (not exactly authentic cuisine but delicious nonetheless) attached to the condo building, they have shuffleboard, grills, and a heated pool at this property. The building itself is marked with hieroglyphics which my kids loved and made the building easy to find when returning from an outing!
The unit itself is nice but not many updates and there were some maintenance and repair issues that hopefully have since been addressed as I brought them to the owners' attention. This includes the sliding patio doors (glass and screen) which did not lock and left me very concerned that my toddler could go out and climb over the rail when we were indisposed. Guest should also be aware that if you are using all three split ac units (which are great) you cannot comfortably sit on the lanai as it heats up the small space quick. A kitchen reno and some new cookware, utensils, etc would make this place really shine.
The unit comes equipped with many touches of home: the maids are instructed to leave non perishables so the fridge has condiments, there are various spices, etc., there are several board games (battleship, life), plenty of beach stuff (chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, sand toys, floaties), laundry detergent provided, etc.
Christine and her husband were responsive and helpful which is great.
Overall, I expect a 5 star experience is possible here but I had to deduct stars due to my safety concern, some minor inconveniences and the lack of upgrades.
