Check in was super easy, we didn’t need to contact the host at all during our stay. The location is great, the view is amazing. Lots of beaches nearby. The beach on the property is pretty, but tiny and too hard to swim in (large rocks and larger breaks) but you get to see turtles swim pass if you look! The space worked for us, but we literally just slept there. We got up and left every morning at 7, had breakfast on the wonderful deck overlooking the ocean, explored and came back late every night we were there. The bedroom was comfy, the futon was horrible but luckily I didn’t sleep on it and it didn’t seem to bother my younger niece. We’re sad we didn’t get to enjoy the property more but there was too much to do to sit around. It definitely is a private condo building with scattered vacation rentals and lots of residents who seemed kind of annoyed by it all. This unit is between two full time residents, so although it was nice to sit on the balcony it was far from private. We met a few others who were vacation renting there and they felt the same sentiment, not so much aloha there but lots of aloha everywhere else so not to worry! Also, yes lots of bugs. Mainly tiny tiny ants so just don’t leave stuff out, keep the doors closed. We got bit way more inside than we did outside by who knows what but we’re not particularly bothered by it. We really appreciate the stay!
