Really cool retro hotel next the ocean, but the area not good for swimming -- the pool makes up for it ! Also, the hammocks are really comfy for naps or reading.
The staff is super friendly and the restaurant is delicious with enjoyable local music.
Great location to Kanakakai (town) -- but recommend renting a car or scooter. Bike riding may be an option if you are ok with the hot humid weather in summer/fall
Landscaping in the hotel grounds was very nice and gave a mellow vibe!
Unfortunately, the street noise was loud at all times with the 4x4 trucks (big tires) going back and forth -- but the location to the East Side was worth it -- I used earplugs instead.
We are definitely coming back!
