The place is close to diamond head and in a rather posh area. The cottage has a nice look and is nicely decorated. Even though the view at the Diamond Head lookout is nice, there is no view around the cottage. It's better to use a car around the area- mall and food places as well as most beaches are rather far to walk.
The biggest downside of the cottage is the heat. There is a ceiling fan and another tower fan that you can move around. But both hardly help at all. Like I said the apartment is nice - but we were explainded multiple times that we have to be VERY carefull about the expensive flooring in the cottage and the wooden wash board in the bathroom, which made us feel like we had to tip toe around the area. It was making us feel rather uncomfortable than feeling at home. The door is basically a glas and wooden door which could be easily opened and the acess to the cottage is rather easy. There is a safe in the cottage but it is not attached to the wall so it can just be carried away as a whole. I would not leave any valuables in the cottage.
