If you're looking for a quiet, rustic location on the north side of the island, this is it. The unit is older and not very fancy, but it's great retreat from the hectic pace of Waikiki.
We walked for a minute with our lawn chairs to reach the seawall at the ocean's edge to watch the waves and the sun set behind the mountain. If you like to walk, the road the complex is on sees a bit of traffic, but there's a great trail up into the mountains a 2 minute drive back past the riding stables. There are stairs to access the beach, but depending on the tide, you may or may not be able to access. A five minute drive in either direction, though, gets you to amazing beaches.
The unit's kitchen is fully stocked so cooking is easy (blender for margaritas!) Tons of towels and comfortable linens. There are fans in every living space that when you combine with open windows made for a comfortable temperature for our Dec visit, and we didn't miss having A/C. There are people living full-time in the complex, one who left for work early (4:30am), so we did have to close the bedroom windows facing the parking lot to shut out the noise.
There's a privacy screen to close off the bedroom, but be aware the living room is visible from outside and there is no way to close that off at the moment.
Great communication from host.
