Aloha! My family spent a month in Ellen’s lovely home on the North Shore. The home is sparkling clean and the location is outstanding. You can easily walk to several great beaches.
The home’s large porch is where we spent many evenings grilling or eating dinner from one of the many great restaurants nearby. If you want to cook, Inside you’ll find a fantastic kitchen with every thing you need. The appliances are top notch and the fridge is huge.
The home’s flooring is a mixture of wood and tile so cleanup is a breeze. The bedrooms are good sized and the beds are all comfortable with plenty of pillows and extra linens if needed. The bathrooms are sparkling clean and the showers (both indoor and outdoor)have good pressure and hot water. The bonus room is loaded with games and books. The family room is large and has plenty of seating as well as a great TV. All of the rooms have quiet ceiling fans that kept us cool through July. There are plenty of towels and beach toys. Scuba gear and boogie boards are a welcome plus! Did I mention the outdoor shower? In the back we found a mango tree that delighted us every day. We had fresh limes and papaya too. Ellen’s wonderful friends and neighbors gave us avocados from their tree as well. There are four bikes that are adult sized and are fun to ride on the nearby trail. Of course you won’t be able to bike off all of the calories you’ll consume at Ted’s bakery which is a stone’s throw down the trail. We rode the bikes to Shark’s Cove several times during the month to snorkel. There is so much to do nearby-Beautiful beaches, hikes and trails to walk make every day a new adventure.
Ellen is a wonderful host who is easy to communicate with and she is extremely helpful. Check in and check out was a breeze.
Don’t miss the opportunity to stay here. I can’t wait to come back. Truly, this was the vacation of a lifetime for my husband and me. Mahalo, Ellen!
