We SO enjoyed this oceanfront condo! The views & sunsets were phenominal. Bed & sofa bed very comfy. Super soft sheets. The condo was furbished with everything we needed for a comfy, cozy stay. The place is well cared for & loved....you can tell. Even down to the darling little sea turtle bathroom fixtures, to match the beautiful sea turtle tile in the shower. So sweet!
And very accomodating hosts! Before we headed out for the day mid week, I messaged Don if there were any paper towels hidden(we were going to pick some up while out), as we had used them all. And less than an hour later, just like magic, there was a roll sitting out on the lanai table. What a sweet touch.
The location was absolutely perfect. Close to everything.
There was a young man taking meticulous care of the grounds every day. Raking up fallen leaves etc...such a sweet, friendly man. Always kind, welcoming & happy to see everyone. The grounds are beautiful.
We were heartbroken to have to leave. But already looking forward to next year! Thank you, Don & Yolanda, for helping us create memories that will last a lifetime!
Couple of pointers:
1. if you are a golfer & need to rent clubs, in the mall by McDonalds is a rental equipment place, they cost us about $30. The course wanted to charge close to $100. This place gave us a pretty good deal for the Kaanapali Course, too. But be sure to check Groupon for last minute deals!
2. We went to The Times grocery store for our general food, close to the condo. But we hit up Costco for liquor and certain items like: cheese & crackers & croissants. It's perfect for larger groups & longer stays(we only stayed one week). And it's right next to the airport, so stop on the way, before checking in. There is also a WalMart & Target in that same vicinity for toiletries or clothes etc...
Also, if you forget anything & need something in a pinch, The General Whaler's store has all the essentials, it's a good sized, well supplied convenience store! It's on the corner, right across from McDs, attached to the gas station .
3. If you feel like staying in, Dollie's up on the corner has great pizza. AND they deliver. It's a 30 second drive to go pick up, but if you are totally spent after a day at the beach? Having pizza & wings delivered directly TO you feels kinda swell.
4. Go to The Gazebo for breakfast! It's just up the road to the left. Beautiful views. Worth the 1 hr wait in line. But they DO have a to go section if you do not feel like waiting. Banana & macadamia nut pancakes & their fried rice. FAMOUS! They open at 7:30am.
