This location is PERFECT! The zoo is immediately across the street, with no buildings to block the view of Diamond head and the beach. We saw flamingos in the morning and heard beautiful bird calls. The well stocked pantry including coffee was greatly appreciated. Loved the beach chairs , boogie boards and the beach towels that were provided. There is no balcony or deck off the studio, but it really isn't needed because the table is positioned right in front of giant windows which open up to the view. There is an outdoor deck a few stories up with tables and chairs if you want to sit outside. Because rental cars were so expensive, we took the bus from the airport to the room which was very easy. We also bussed around the city quite easily. Kurt was very prompt to respond to our questions. The lighting in the studio was lovely, but it could be a bit lighter at the table or over the bed for reading at night. When I suggested this to Kurt, he thanked me and said he would add some lighting. This was such a lovely place and I would stay here again!
