The Carriage House was perfect for our needs as a family of 4 with young children. We really enjoyed our mornings on the lanai and the ability to relax in the living area after a day of sightseeing.
Everything in the apartment was precisely as described and Michele offered nice touches such extra towels, beach towels etc. We also appreciated the tips on which beaches and eating places to go to - especially when Chris' suggestion led us to finally spot turtles :)
For us, the location was perfect for exploring the North Shore. Pupukea has nice food trucks, a large Foodland, and it is easy to explore in both directions along the coast.
