this place is close to the beach and right in the middle of anything you need to do and go. I can get to the road to Hana in 15 minutes can go up to Lahaina in 15 min. the beach is the selling point of this place it is mostly private my children loved it as well as I did. the beds were super comfortable. it was a wonderful experience sitting on the balcony having a coffee overlooking the ocean!!!! I would recommend this to anybody that has a family
