It's an ideal location for walkable Hanalei trip. 3 minutes to the beach, 1 minute to restaurants and groceries. The home has a quaint set of decks in the front and back for dining and people watching. There's beach gear including snorkle masks, boogie boards, an umbrella, shade tent, sand toys for kids, and a 4-wheel wagon to carry it all. We travelled with our 3 year old son and he had no trouble getting comfortable in the house. The 1 bathroom does not have a regular full-sized tub -- to bathe your small child, you have to fill the high-walled shower basin which gets the job done but it might be a little adjustment from what your kids are used to. All in all, it was a wonderful home and we hope to return in the future.
