The way to experience Hawaii is by staying at this place it was amazing. The views out the back door.....I saw beautiful sunsets and turtles on a daily basis. You can go swimming and snorkeling in your back yard. We paid a lot to go snorkeling and I regret it because it was better in our backyard. We saw so many different fishes. It is located in the perfect spot, in between so many good places to eat and shop. This was my 1st time to Hawaii and it won't be my last.
