We stayed in Tom's studio just before thanksgiving, it seemed like a quite time for the resort which was perfect for us. The studio was very clean, convenient and with a full kitchen. The kitchen is small but had a fridge, blender and full stove which is what we were looking for. The studio is at the edge of the complex, so there is no neighbor on one side and no apartment above us which meant it was pretty quite. Its also right near the stairs to the undercover parking. Given its location there is no need to interact with the rest of the resort if you dont want to. From the lanai you can see the ocean, it was an excellent breakfast spot. We did find that the bathtub was a bit slippery and there is free wifi available but it was not always easy to connect to the internet and the service could be slow. We made use of the boogie boards in the studio and it was a nice bonus to have them available. Its located a walkable distance from restaurants but as its quite dark along Ali'i drive we chose to drive to places for dinner. Tom was a very responsive and helpful host. We very much enjoyed staying here and have no reservations in recommending it.
