We stayed for seven nights, arriving late at night on the first night.

Overall, it's a decent place to stay that's a little out-of-date. When entering, drive past the sign for the property and turn into the next driveway, which has a parking garage for Prince Kuhio guests. Park, then head to your right to get to PK. You'll have to follow the signs to a 24-hour unstaffed office to sign in your vehicle and pick up a parking pass (a 3x5 card) and put in on your vehicle.

The place had everything one would need, including an oven, shower with plenty of hot water, cable TV (although a bit small), wi-fi, king bed, full refrigerator/freezer, and utensils. The property definitely shows its age though, as most of the appliances feel like they came from the 70's (and on our last day, the refrigerator just stopped working, apparently due to water dripping down from freezer and interfering with refrigerator's ability to function; Todd was generous enough to provide a refund for the food we ended up having to toss). The best part is that there is AC (although it's a window unit, not central). There is almost always a breeze blowing outside and there is a lanai, but we never wanted to open the door because the screen had several holes on it that would have let mosquitoes in (although there were several pieces of duct tape over the larger holes, there were several smaller ones that we deemed big enough to allow bugs in).

One of the best aspects of this property is its location. As a runner, traveling to Hawaii is always a bit of a hassle because I usually have to drive to a safer locale to get my run in outdoors. Not the case here- this area is packed with runners. If you go to the right, you get 2 miles along the coastline to a dead end; to the left, you get a variety of roads with wide shoulders. Watch the weather though; I had to deal with a brief shower five out of the six days I ran.

There are also all kinds of great little food places (as in non-$50/plate)- I would highly suggest Da Shack (Mexican), happy hour at the pizza place in Koloa, the thai and fish taco food trucks in Koloa, and (whenever it re-opens) the "best happy hour on the island" at Joe Kalipaki's. The Big Save (grocery store) has all sorts of specials on groceries plus plenty of fresh fish/meat for taking back to cook (including awesome poke).

This area is also a good base to explore the island- you can get to end of west shore in under an hour and to the end of north shore in about 90 minutes.

Overall, it's nowhere near a Ritz, but it's clean (not one single bug in unit for the entirety of our stay), lets you cook full meals, and is a prime location to be. We'd stay again.
