Serene, ideal location! Place was clean and quiet but close to everything you need if you want to get away from sights/busyness of Honolulu. Easy access to places to eat, there’s a great little food plate place called Kaya across the street with a few food trucks. Also easy access to a grocery store a few miles away and also Long’s drugs as well as an ice cream shop and a small movie theater. There is something quite wonderful about waking up each morning to the sound of the ocean, beautiful views, taking a short walk on the beach literally 25 ft. from your back door and a swim in the water.
The only criticisms are that this place is quite in need of an update. Some of the furniture and furnishings are dingy and old. Not everything works, i.e., the window slats or the sliding partition between the bedroom and the front room. It is basic accommodation, nothing fancy. Also, since you are right about the beach, and there are windows on three sides of you, even though you can see out, people can see in as they’re walking by. You are in kind of a fishbowl situation. But overall, When taking into account the proximity of the ocean, truly the location cannot be beat. :-)
