We loved staying in the cottage, it was light, comfortable, meticulously clean and the amenities were practically brand new. We had access to the washer and dryer with the addition of new seating on the lanai. Everything you need is there, just bring your luggage and if you prefer to cook your own meals then buy groceries in Honolulu (less expensive there) and you're all set to go! Access to the beach only a couple minutes from the back door was so good and use of the outdoor shower to wash off the sand on return. The location was ideal for what we needed to achieve during our stay as it is only a few minutes drive to the Polynesian Cultural Centre, BYU Hawai'i and Lā'ie Temple. Paul and Alicia are great hosts and we appreciated their local knowledge and being ever so helpful understanding local conditions, streaming from your laptop to the TV and helpful hints on places to go and see. We look forward to coming back again some day. We're confident everyone will enjoy this lovely cottage as much as we did. Many thanks, Mr & Mrs Reiri from Aotearoa, New Zealand.
