The location is excellent from the point of view of food, beach and shopping. Our favourite was the Maguro Spot for poke bowls only a few steps away. It is barely minutes to the beach and you are looking at Duke Paoa Kahanamoku Statue. You walk past an ABC shop to the beach but there are plenty around so you can buy a bus pass and travel a bit further afield.
The apartment is small with a little verandah where there are chairs and a table. There is no clutter and is easy to clean. We only came back to the apartment when we wanted to rest and put our feet up. The bed was good and we slept well. The cable TV system was easy to use and the internet worked. The fridge kept things cold. We didn't attempt to cook anything as it was too tempting to go out.
Chris was prompt when contacted and when we arrived I had to contact him about a couple of things. It was all fixed by the time we got back from our excursion. We had a really good holiday.
