We had a lovely stay. Kevin was easy to communicate with. We had a late night arrival and had no problem getting in. The place was exactly as pictured and described. We used the outdoor BBQs by the pool a few times and enjoyed that. The local beach was clean, white sand, blue clean water, not over crowded, groups going out for scuba dives and snorkeling (they often said they saw turtles and eels). We appreciated the extras like the beach umbrella and chairs that Kevin had in his place. The local beach was relaxing and perfect for us. We rented a car and explored the whole island. It was very easy to get around with a car. This area in Makaha Valley is drier (which means great beach days!) But it is not as green as the North Shore or East side of the island. Great place and great stay overall. Will recommend to others.
