The unit was spacious and large enough for privacy. We ate most meals out on the back veranda and the kitchen was well stocked with appliances and appointments to prepare any meal. There was some highway noise outside, but inside it was quiet and the condo was adjacent to a golf course which allowed a view down to the ocean and the kaanapali resort area. There were a few cars parked in the adjoining parking lot, but there was no noise associated with these cars. We spent a wonderful Thanksgiving there and would recommend this unit for larger parties as it was a great value.
