Everything is perfect as advertised and as shown in the pictures. Every day we went out snorkeling, came back, fed ourselves and relaxed at lanai. In lanai, the hammock is my husband's favorite spot, the sofa couch is my place :). We enjoyed waiting and watching the beautiful sunset view.
Going to the best snorkeling spots on Big island, it's about 10 mins drive to Kahalu'u beach (toward north), 20 minutes to Two Step (toward south). If you arrange a cruise snorkeling trip to Caption Cook, most likely Keauhou Bay will be your meeting point that is 10 mins drive away- if you do, get there early, don't be late, they won't wait for you. PS. There's a public restroom at Keauhou Bay.
There're not many going on around the property, just nature, peaceful. During the night, I actually found the frogs singing in harmony XD that is interesting and I slept in with it. My husband, on the other hand, had to use the ear plugs (he had his own but the house prepared a bunch), he does not usually like any noise.
Very few dinning options in the neighborhood but there is one McDonald and a KTA supermarket conveniently within walking distance. Reel Aloha Poke and Randy Huli's BBQ chicken & Rib are good to go too (but they both tend to sell out/ close early, may not be available for dinner).
It's a very clean place and we hope that whoever chooses to stay here also keeps it clean. :)
We're very happy staying here.
