Our trip was a short 4-day stay for me and my wife's 10-year wedding anniversary, sans kids. We wanted to lounge on the beach, eat good food, do a bit of shopping (support local, of course :) and we wanted convenience. This place helped fulfill all of our wants.
Check-in was a breeze, similar to a hotel. The unit is ground level, so no stairs or elevators. Plenty of parking, and that's with us leaving a few times and returning at different hours of the day.
The room was clean and well stocked with towels, kitchen supplies, dish soap, hand soap, shampoo, conditioner, etc. The bed was comfortable and came with two types of pillows to choose from. A/C was set at 73 upon arrival and we didn't touch it.
The best part for us was the lanai. We hardly used the front door our entire stay. The coffee bar and lobby for fresh beach towels were just a short walk. The privacy on the lanai was great for breakfast and FaceTiming with our kids. It was also great for drying off wet clothes and equipment from the beach, which is maybe only a couple of hundred yards from the room. Speaking of the beach...
The private beach here didn't feel overcrowded any of the days, and we stayed for multiple hours each day. Though the sand gets hot, the water is a beautiful blue, and the backdrop of Molokai and Lanai is incredible. The water is warm and relatively calm, which made it great for swimming and snorkeling. We saw some fish and sea turtles! It's a perfect beach for kids. Once you get past about noon though there's no shade, so umbrellas are ideal. Just make sure your anchor game is on point, because it can get windy.
A giant perk for us was the room came with two beach chairs, an umbrella, a sand mat, and a soft-sided cooler. We used these every day, and considering the cost to rent these items, we felt extremely fortunate.
Don't drive to Whalers Village, the parking is atrocious. There's a shuttle that runs from the Villas there. Take that.
Overall we had an incredible time. The location and convenience were exactly what we were looking for, and we look forward to staying here again!
