The pictures don’t do it justice how beautiful the view is from this unit! It’s at the perfect height to be able to see the ocean from the balcony and then it feels so tropical when you walk out the front door to be up by the trees. It is very remote and takes about 30-45 minutes to get to Costco, Walmart, or Target. I really enjoyed going to Kapolei for surfing and shopping. We were disappointed to see the state of cleanliness of the unit. The first full day was spent cleaning the unit. We also weren’t aware of the fact that we needed cash for absolutely everything there. It costs at least $3 for a load of laundry-$1.50 for washer $1.50 for dryer. Melody was great to respond to issues that came up. But one issue that was never fully resolved was the bugs. We did so much cleaning, never left dishes in the sink, and took out the trash every night and we still had so many bugs from day one. Melody did send her husband over to bring more traps and then another day to spray and we never got rid of them and they didn’t even go down. The positive is the view! The bed was also very comfortable which made our month stay much more enjoyable. The fold out bed from the couch took some time to figure out how to pull out but was the most comfortable one I’ve ever been on. The bathroom is huge! The pool is very nice but the rules are very strict - no jumping, diving, using pool toys, or tubes even for toddlers. The bbq area was really nice. The unit could use bigger pots and pans. My kids enjoyed having coloring books and the chalk wall. The placement of the unit is nice and close to the trash and laundry. The peacocks are fun to look at - beware of the poop if you walk around. They are loud at night but it didn’t bother us because our kids use white noise. The other thing that would be nice is if Melody could replace the drapes to make it totally blacked out at night. There are lights on all night and the light coming in was disruptive. Overall, our stay was okay. But we really appreciated how quickly Melody responded to our concerns.
