I think we might have been the first people to stay here. We were a little apprehensive of reserving this place as there weren’t reviews yet, however two things put our minds at ease: Bret has stellar reviews for his other properties and he responded so quickly to my initial email.
This condo is fantastic! We absolutely loved staying here and hope to stay again soon!
Location: The location is amazing! The condo is ideally situated to explore everything the North Shore has to offer. It’s secluded yet there are two grocery stores, a drug store, several local eateries, and the Polynesian Cultural Center are located minutes away.
Unit: The unit is newly updated and very spacious. We are a family of 3 and loved having so much space! The bedroom has two sets of full-sized bunk beds and the living room has a sofa bed and a pull-out Murphy bed. The unit features new appliances including a a full sized washer and dryer (which is SO helpful on vacation!). The kitchen is well stocked with plates, utensils, cooking supplies, etc... There are also many nice personal touches - 2 ukuleles with Moana sheet music, a few games, AWESOME snorkeling equipment, and tons of towels. There is a trash shute located just outside the front door. The unit has a bunch of food storage containers that makes keeping your food away from island critters easy (we never saw any bugs during our entire stay). Perhaps best of all THIS UNIT HAS AIR CONDITIONING. I believe it’s one of the only units in the building that has AC. Having AC made our vacation so much more enjoyable. The view from the balcony is SO PRETTY!!!
Building: The building is an older building. Based on the number of lock boxes, I’m guessing many/most of the units are vacation rentals. The building is literally steps away from the beach. We swam and played in the beach everyday. It’s almost unreal how close the beach is to the building. The beach is nice and sandy. The other guests were very kind and we enjoyed getting to meet some of the them. Parking is immediately in front of the building. There is also a nice, refreshing pool located close to the ocean. The security staff was exremetly friendly and made us feel very safe.
Owner communication: Bret was super helpful. The check-in procedures were clear and easy to follow. The unit had a guide with additional info and tips - we found it very useful!
In conclusion, we loved staying here and hope to stay again. If you are thinking of staying here, I highly recommend it. This is an amazing place and I think it will help make many, many warm memories for countless families. Seriously, such an awesome vacation!
