I stayed here with my wife, 5-year-old son, and mother and we all really enjoyed our stay. I snorkeled with 12 dolphins (and one baby dolphin) at Makua beach which is about 5-10 minutes drive from the condo! Makua beach also has a small natural pool with a sandy bottom that was a great place for my son to safely play with the local kids. He enjoyed looking for fish and crabs with his new friends. And, my wife, son, and mom saw dolphins jumping from the beach while we were there! We also saw 3 sea turtles at Makaha beach just down the road from the condo. I've been snorkeling/diving in many places and these were two of the coolest spots that I've been. And the beaches being so close to the condo, without crowds of tourists, was a nice bonus. The condo was convenient and clean and set in a beautiful location. On the property, we enjoyed going to the pool and hot tub. We also really enjoyed seeing lizards, geckos, peacocks, and chickens on the condo property. If you want to have a lot of upscale restaurant choices nearby, you should probably stick to Waikiki. But if you're looking for an authentic, relaxing Hawaiian experience without spending a ton of money this is a great option. We liked going to Tamura market for groceries and eating out at the BBQ and cafes that the locals also enjoy. We'd definitely go back someday!
