Great apartment! Fantastic hosts!
We had a couple of curveballs impact our travel plans, and Richard really bent over backwards to accomodate us. He is very nice, reponsive, and easy to work with.
The condo was very clean and had everything we needed. All we bought were groceries. The view of the ocean and sunrise from the lanai is fantastic. The complex has its own little private beach with calm waters that are safe for young children. Parking was never a problem, and there wasn't really any noise from the construction that Richard mentions in the description. The bedroom area is separate from the family room and kitchen and has a screen that can be put up for extra privacy. The space was easily enough for our family of four but any more than that would be pushing it.
I will say that if you are the type of person who likes the hustle and bustle of the city, nightclubs/bars, etc., then this is not the place for you. If you prefer a quiet, peaceful area and don't mind doing a little extra driving through beautiful scenery, then you've found the right place. We finally visited Waikiki on our way out of town and found that it was like Vegas meets the beach. Boy were we glad we changed our mind and decided to stay Richard's place instead! Especially at a time like this!
