We stayed from 8/17- 8/24. Check in process was super easy (basically unlock a lock box) :). A free standing AC unit is in the master bedroom and it works very well. We did not need to run it at night but it helped like right after you got out of the shower since it is so humid in Hawaii. Upstairs loft area had plenty of fans which was needed b/c heat rises but at night with the windows open and the fans going it was fine. Kitchen was well stocked and there is a little private sitting area where we would have our coffee (the place provided two coffee pots! My kind of place. A Mr Coffee and a Keurig). Beds were very comfortable and I found I slept great! Area is quiet which we liked too. The hike to the beach is a hike (not a walk- I think based on other reviews people think this is more of leisurely walk) so just know that :) It is not awful but it is a hike. Plenty of beach supplies were provided which was awesome. Even nice beach chairs and boogie boards. All in all a comfortable, clean, quiet place.
