What a perfect place to stay. Walking distance from a nice beach and just a short drive to any shopping or dining options. We stayed for a full week and couldn't believe everything that was available for our use. Beach towels, snorkel equipment, water shoes, boogie boards, and a fishing pole. Also, the house is stocked with everything we needed to make our own meals, including an Instant Pot! There is also plenty of sleeping options, including several air beds. Check in was ok. We had a bit of a struggle only because we arrived in the dark and one of the motion lights didn't work and finding the light switches was difficult in the dark, thank goodness for cell phone flashlights! We enjoyed the Lanai every day and night. Make sure to close the screen curtain or at night the gnats will get all over the house and during the day you may get a couple birds that wander in. One downside, but I think is true for most houses in Hawaii, is there is no air conditioning, probably because you have the windows and doors open most of the time. We had an amazing time and probably one of our favorite things was sitting on the lanai and watching the sea turtles play in the waves. Highly suggest this house.
