The place worked out really great for us -- a family of 3 with a 15-month old. The location is super with a short walk to the beach, a store, and a few really nice cafes and restaurants. The lanai overlooks a beautiful golf course with a backdrop of a volcano. Our daughter really enjoyed pointing birds and golf carts :) Having those beach chairs and a boogie board was awesome as well as a vacuum to battle sand from the beach. Car parking is right in front. Highly recommended to anyone who does not feel being right on the beach is a must.
