Shuye exudes the Aloha spirit. A wonderful hostess. She picked us at the airport and took us back. She is interesting to converse with. Her condo is clean and has an ocean view. The lanai provides a place to sit and enjoy the ocean view. If you are tired at the end of a day of fun in the sun and would like to see the fireworks grab a glass of wine and view them from the lanai. We loved the location because we did not want to rent a car. The area is safe and walkable to anything you want - restaurants, groceries, shopping, etc. Also, public transportation right out front. The Ilikai also has amenities including a market, gift shop, Dave's ice cream, restaurants, and surf shop to name a few. No trip to Hawaii is complete without going to a luau. There are several to choose from including Hilton's which is an easy walk. However, after consulting locals, we chose The Chiefs luau and had a wonderful experience. We took a tour bus but you can drive if you like. Two of the fire dancers are international championship title holders and they don't disappoint. This review is getting long because there is so much more to say but I will end with a couple thoughts. The pools are both very nice but we loved the "baby pool" which is mostly used by adults who want to tan in a chair in the water rather than swim. Lastly, we highly recommend Shuye's place and will return in the future. Aloha!!
