Our goal for this trip was to be beach bums. We wanted to avoid the windy northern beaches, and be able to walk to the beach as many have limited parking. This location was perfect. We had a 10 min. walk to Magic Sands Beach aka as White Sands Beach. It’s a small beach, with a band of lava rock to carefully step over between the sand and waters edge. Young and old were there to ride waves, snorkel or simply sunbathe. It has facilities and a food shack. It met our requirements as did this Airbnb. As described, you could hear the sounds of people living above you as well as neighbors doing yard maintenance, some traffic noise, along with the multiple bird songs. None of it was excessive or annoyed us. The mattress is soft to my wife’s liking. I prefer firm but had no sleeping issues. Slept on the futon couch/bed one night and that was comfortable. A free bus runs up and down the main road but don’t rely on the printed schedule as traffic flow slows down in the afternoon. Sad to leave.
