We decided to splurge a bit for part of our Hawaii vacation, and it was so worth it. This place had absolutely everything we needed and was perfect for our family. About a 30 second walk to either the beach or the pool, and an easy drive to some great food stops and other North Shore activities. But we were also happy to just sit on the lanai and watch the resident peacock walk around in the sunset. Gina was very responsive; sent so much helpful info and many personal recommendations prior to our arrival.
