Listen to the waves falling asleep at night. Perfect.

A little dated but a place with beautiful views. Amazing beaches around. Very underrated property. Would be back again.

Comfortable neighborhood

I’m so happy I cancelled my room at the Hilton and stayed at this beach house. After daily outings to the cities/tourist areas, it was really nice to be “home” and away from it all. I’m not a crowd/city person, so I was happy to have my own kitchen, make my own food and not have to wait in crowded lines for my coffee and meals. I also go stir crazy if I’m cooped up in a small spaces, so to be able to walk outside and have my own private beach whenever I wanted, was more than I could’ve asked for in a vacation. The home’s backyard faces west and we caught gorgeous sunsets every evening and the ocean roared us to sleep every night. Just be aware, that this location is pretty much as far West as you can go and you cannot drive North without going about 30-40 minutes back East. The nearest “mainstream” shopping area is also about 30 minutes away.

Our stay was great. Easy check-in and check-out, beautiful condo with friendly staff. Keep in mind that the place is very far from the city center. We knew this when we chose it, and we based our itinerary on the north side of the island, and then we rented another place to visit the Waikīkī area and the city center, which is quite far from this one. For those who have trouble sleeping, the air conditioning is quite noisy, but for us it wasn't a problem, we always arrived very tired and would fall asleep. In windy weather it is also quite noisy, due to the height of the floor. And all the bars and places to eat in this area close very early, around 8 pm. It has a beautiful balcony with a view of the mountains and the sea (and also of the pool).

I am reviewing my charges and believe I was overcharged for my stay.
