Loved the ocean views and listening to the ocean from the deck. The private beach you can walk to isn't the nicest swimming beach, but was still great to have. Loved that the house came stocked with some beach toys, chairs, snorkel gear, etc. The house has everything you'd need for a stay it just wasn't THAT nice or new and a bit expensive for what it was - we booked it despited the cost because it had decent cancellation policy and we had to book last minute. It's a short drive to Princeville and nearby shops and restaurants.
