We chose Marcia's place for two primary reasons; for its location on the beach and for its privacy/seclusion. That Marcia describes her place as a bit "rustic" was just an added bonus. Our stay was all we hoped it would be. Three days of ocean breeze and ocean waves....and make no mistake, you are ON the beach. We made use of virtually all the beach toys, boogie boards, surf board, ocean kayak....
The house is comfortable, cozy, clean, and a bit nostalgic. A perfect combination of rustic and new, as the kitchen and the half bath are newly remodeled in bright white. While there is another home on the property, the full time residents were super friendly, and quiet. If you are looking for an out of the way, as close to authentic (as possible) Hawaiian experience on Oahu, look no further. I could almost picture Hemingway sitting at the kitchen table, taking in the solitude......tapping away on an old manual typewriter....
