Laurie could earn a 5 star review for her communication alone - she’s prompt, accessible, and very detailed. I felt confident in Laurie throughout the entire process, which was exactly what I wanted while on vacation!
As for the condo, my husband and I especially enjoyed the location and airflow through the louvered windows. Prince Kuhio’s birthplace is actually adjacent to the property! There’s a water feature with koi fish just outside the unit, which can serve as either ambiance or a sort of white noise, and a small beach about three tour bus lengths down the street (look for the sandy part when wading in!). There is a laundry basket in the unit (I appreciate the small, thoughtful things) and several coin-operated washers and dryers in the conveniently located laundry room. There are more things, of course - these are just my top picks on the fly.
Side note: as mentioned in a couple other reviews, the shower is a bit on the smaller side. It’s like a cubicle that’s roughly 3ft x 3ft (or a little less). It gets the job done for most people, but for some with mobility impairments it would be harder to utilize.
Overall, my husband and I definitely recommend Laurie’s place!
