Beautiful View and Proximity to Attractions
Nice and clean, quiet, and a great view of ocean and tidepools.
We had a wonderful stay at this condo and would highly recommend it.The views from the balcony and bedroom were absolutely fabulous—we started each morning with mimosas, watching and listening to the waves, which was such a peaceful way to begin the day.The location was excellent, within walking distance to restaurants, cafés, and souvenir shops. We also rented a car to explore the island, and having a dedicated parking spot included (without extra resort-style fees) was a huge bonus.The condo was well equipped with thoughtful extras like a full-size cooler, snorkeling gear, beach chairs, and an umbrella, which made beach days easy and enjoyable. The A/C worked great, and everything felt comfortable and well maintained.We also appreciated the clear communication, including detailed check-in instructions and a thoughtful follow-up message to ensure everything was going well.Lastly, the 70’s Hawaiian décor is exactly as shown in the photos—we expected it and actually loved the charm it added.Overall, a fantastic stay—we would definitely return!

Convenient location, fabulous view.
The location is perfect, with all condominiums perched on the ocean. Very convenient to downtown, restaurants, bars, beaches and shops. The condo was clean and comfortable, and well stocked with cookware, utensils, and small appliances.
Spectacular sunsets, convenient location, easy to walk to everything, responsive management, will happily come back again.

Room we had was dated, but had everything we needed for our stay (large kitchen with plenty of pots and dishes). They even had toys for the beach which we did use. The complex was experiencing problems with the air conditioner. They provided a small unit for the bedroom which kept it cool. Tiana was very friendly and helpful.
The views were amazing. The location was very good. Close to shopping and dinning. We walked to dinner several times. Condo could use a little updating and repair but overall we would return.

Staying here was great for the location. The unit is literally above the ocean, providing a gorgeous sunset view and the best natural white noise to sleep with. Very close, but not directly in the heart of the action of town. Easy walking around to shopping, dining, kayaking and snorkelling. If we get back to the area, we would likely stay in the same building.

The crashing sound of the waves! Wow you can't be any closer - just a short walk to downtown to access excellent food, farmer's market, a great walk along the water. Easy access to snorkeling beaches. Nice to have beach towels, chairs. Visiting the pool overlooking the water is refreshing.
