Carol was a fantastic, friendly, communicative host and this is a great place to stay! We borrowed some beach chairs and an umbrella and walked to the beach. The place is exactly what you would want out of a vacation in Haleiwa! They must have recently put in a TV (previous reviews said there wasn't one) and our family enjoyed a few Netflix movie nights together. The two recommendations we have for future travelers is one, to stop by the store to make sure you get some basics like paper towels, hand soap, ice, coffee, etc and second, to bring some ear plugs for the roosters :) Overall we would definitely recommend this place to others!
