The condo was well stocked and had household items that are essential to an out of town stay that will ensure your comfort. Moreover, the kitchen was well stocked and with quality cooking items and utensils. There was nothing that we needed in order to make our stay replicate being away from home, as we cooked and made drinks with no problems as simple essential items were available, like basic spices, toaster, coffee maker, blender, food processor, kitchen cooking utensils, good quality pots and pans, and wine screw. I absolutely loved the balcony, as I wish it was closer to the beach but it was right across the street and the view was just a bit obstructed but you could see the beach and all the "happenings". I assume too if you were closer, you might have to contend with noise. The condo was clean and neat and I am a germaphobe, so it was good and there were plenty of items there to clean throughout the week, toilet tissue, paper-towels etc. The condo even had beach towels for your use too. The people in the buildings were friendly and engaged you in conversation, as we ran into diverse families. I also like the fact that the residence was key code entry, so I did not have to keep up with a key to loose and get charged $200. I also like the fact that the dwelling was on the top floor, so I did not have to worry about people or kids running around in the morning and late hours over my head. One of the key things we were concerned about was the location and being close to other businesses, restaurants, etc., as the condo is located close to a lot of restaurants etc., but if you want to explore the island you really need a car. We did rent a car in the end, but we had initially decided on the condo do to the location of so many things like grocery store, pharmacy, restaurants, etc. in walking distance and easy enough to catch the local transportation, to no avail. I really enjoyed reading the visitor book, as it gave me so many great ideas on things to do. I would recommend going to Castco on your way into town and picking up a few items to get you started. We did bring a small packing cooler and beach blanket, but the owner had a well stock of beach items as noted in the description which made my beach time - FABULOUS! I will say that the owner too was very responsive to my messages, questions, and request, which made me more comfortable in securing the condo. I prefer the condo over a hotel based on my vacation preference to a location like Hawaii, cost reasons, and being able to enjoy the fresh fish. I can not think of one thing to caution you about or consider as our stay was delightful. One thing I can mention, is that next time I am going to have to visit Hawaii in a warmer month. I am a college professor and my housemates have a business that is booming during the warmer months, so we travel in winter before the public schools let out but Hawaii I want to experience when it is like 95 degrees hot. I enjoyed the beaches while I was there and went swimming but I am from Va Beach, so beach time for me is when it is really hot. But the owner can not control the weather or when I decide to visit Hawaii, so in sum it was a good experience, the condo was clean, the location was perfect, and it was safe. Also, I almost forgot that there is a $40 condo fee when you check-in to the condo, so don't forget to add that to your budget. Another great thing too is that the grocery store like a couple of miles from the condo delivers, so you could make a grocery list in advance and get the information from the owner or front desk and have your groceries delivered the day of your arrival, especially if you have little people with you it makes it so much easier. There was a pack-n-play too there at the facility in the upstairs closet. We don't have small people and didn't want to bring any on our vacation but I know thats important to moms. How could I also forget that they had all these television in each room with a ton of remote controls, as there was all types of sounds and there was even a separate speaker system for music, in the kitchen area that could be heard throughout the house. I thank you again for the rest away from home that was clean, well-kept, well-stocked, and safe.
