Ryan's condo was perfect for my mother and I during our first visit to Hawaii - First, the view of the ocean is incredible. The air coming off the water was so fresh and we spent mornings eating breakfast looking over the water and evenings watching the sunset (one of the main highlights of our trip). Very calm, quiet, and peaceful. Also, the condo is fantastic for whale watching (Ryan has binoculars and we could see the whales through them). His place is very clean and had everything we needed for the beach. The bed was large and comfy too. Ryan was an excellent host - he sent us lists of activities before our trip and suggested restaurants (we made a reservation ahead of time) - He was also super responsive during our stay and got back to us very quickly when we had questions. Parking is easy and free, check in and check out was easy too. Oh - the candy and cookies he left for us were delicious as well - we went searching the stores for more! :-) Thanks Ryan, we hope to be back again to visit soon!
