This place was great! It looked exactly like it does in photos. Being right on the water was awesome and we loved seeing the sea turtles every day! Just a short walk down the street is a great park with an awesome beach for swimming. The North Shore was perfect for us because it was much less crowded and much quieter than other popular areas, and we were still able to be in Honolulu within an easy 40 minute drive. The pool and the hot tub were especially nice to have as a way to wind down in the evenings. The host was very easy to communicate with and the accommodations were very clean and nice!
