Awesome place right near the beach. All the conveniences that my wife and I needed were there. We used the beach chairs to drink mimosas' on the beach. It is a perfect location for hiking the canyon, chilling at the beach, and visiting the north shore. It is a fantastic alternative to doing the resort cliché' tourist trap living. The place is clean with lots of hot water. The bed is very comfortable and the A/C keeps the bedroom & whole place nice and cool. Would definitely go there again!
For the trip; We only went out twice for meals and otherwise ate fresh & local foods, including pan-seared Ahi (used the stove's vent fan), microwave bags of rice, salads, and perfectly-ripe fruits. FYI, Wine and beer prices are about the same as the mainland USA.
PS. The local surf shop rents surf boards, boogie boards and fins, and I believe snorkel stuff too. Having spent 10+ years in So Cal, the local break worked great, although next time I would rent a rack to hit other spots as well.
