The view from the large balcony is amazing. We loved sitting in the balcony listening to the ocean waves. The two beds are comfortable, the space is roomy, and the kitchen is open to the living and dining area, which is very nice to spend time inside the apartment when it was raining. The apartment has all the amenities. The nearby shopping center has grocery store and little shops. It is very close to the nice Hanalei beach and restaurants as well. It is nice that beach towels, body boards and beach chairs were provided in the apartment. We had a great time using them on the beaches. The neighborhood is nicely maintained and a great place to live. We would love to come back again in the future!
