We had a wonderful time at Philip's Sunset Beach apartment. It's quirky, clean and cute, private and quiet, and nothing like staying in a resort. The place is in a residential, family-friendly neighborhood just steps from a beautiful beach. Phil and family were very welcoming. I loved looking out from our deck over the backyard with its abundant foliage--we even made guacamole with avocados picked from the backyard tree. We had planned to cook in the kitchen some evenings, but in the end we ate out at the great nearby food trucks (a short drive or bike ride away) instead. There are many places to explore on the North Shore, including Haleiwa town, some fun hikes, and all the great beaches. After days of adventure, it was great to return home to our private oasis and sleep soundly. Thanks, Phil!
