Each very special place has its own unique recipe, and Mary’s condo can best be summarized as: A condo with a view like no other, located just before the last quiet, untouristed stretch of Oahu. About the condo: comfy and well appointed for a couple, with a beautiful stretch of beach 13 floors below you and the entire western Pacific horizon featuring breathtaking sunsets. Take it all in from the lanai for the last few hours of the day, or bring beach chairs down to witness the last horizontal rays over the waters. The location: There is a coastline up to Kaena Point (definitely recommend the hike there) that I’d guess 99.9% of island visitors never hear about, much less visit. So much peace and quiet, and just 45 minutes from Honolulu. Very, very special indeed.
