This is an absolute gem of a location and home. The unique setting overlooking the bay and sunsets, the meandering pool, the mango tree and jungle of plumeria all make for a magical spot. Are some of the finishes dated, like the kitchen counters, dishes, and utensils? Yes. But it is totally serviceable and utilitarian. Is is safe or advisable to try to enter the water from the property from the step (with or without the ladder)? No. Definitely not. But there is water access along the street in many locations. With these very minor exceptions, this is a truly elite location and home. Truly a Hawaiian getaway that feels welcoming and comfortable and not at all corporate. This is the opposite of a resort vacation in all of the best ways. We would all love to stay here again.
