This unit is only a few blocks from the downtown Lahina area and we had a great time at Ian's place.
The unit was a bit difficult for me to find at night. The post I saw did not mention parking fees, but as many reviews mention, there is normally a $20 per day fee. This was not being charged during my stay.
There are 2 pools, 1 chlorine and 1 saltwater. The chlorine pool, near the unit, is currently closed off and empty. The saltwater pool was available for up to 10 people at a time and requires a reservation.
It appears there is construction happening as some walkways had caution tape closing off areas and we saw lumber in the parking lot but never heard or saw anyone doing work.
The unit itself has 2 wall unit AC's, 1 in the living room and the other in a bedroom. The second bedroom had a portable window unit and all 3 units worked well.
The unit was clean and fairly well maintained.
The kitchen area has all the things needed to cook (plates, pots/pans, utensils cups etc. and spices, but you will need to go shopping as the fridge only had mayo. The freezer also had no ice as the icebox was off. I recommend you turn this on if you want to pack a cooler so you don't have to buy ice.
The living room has ample seating and a variety of things to watch if you spend anytime inside but was mostly used by our teenager when we went to sleep.
The bathroom was nice and had plush towels. There is no fan but they have a large shutter style window you can open to get some airflow.. It is private but the window is right next to the toilet and the upstairs walkway is on the other side of the wall so people can hear you showering etc.
I used the washer/dryer and while they are older they worked but you will need to purchase some laundry soap as none is provided.
You may also want to buy sunscreen, body wash, etc. as only hand soap and shampoo/conditioner were provided.
The shower never ran out of hot water even with 3 people showering and it was a nice tile shower.
The rooms had comfortable beds and some amenities in the closets from beach towels to a boogie board, cart, cooler and sand toys.
Overall we would definitely stay here again as the price was great when we traveled and was a brief walk to many shops downtown.
Some stores were closed when we traveled, due to the pandemic, but we did not struggle to find things to do.
I would recommend you book this spot if it is available.
