We had a really nice time on our first visit to Sam and Connie's; we checked in just before a beautiful sunset and a got little show from humpback whales right outside our window. This location is just a mile and a half north away from GREAT snorkel spot; we swam with turtles 2/3 days. It's also nice to jog along Ali'i Dive in the early morning.
The place is exactly as advertised; small and fairly basic, but they have tried hard to have all the amenities you might need for few days' stay from a cooler and mini-cooler, beach chairs and umbrella to good towels, laundry detergent and basic picnic supplies.
