Just ok

Listing bragged about full kitchen. It was ok. Was given one hand towel, No dish rag for 10 days. Usually we find at least one morning of coffee to get us through but alas, nothing. Knives were super dull. No pot holder or tongs for bbq. I did ask for a rice cooker and they did buy one but found one already there which was weird. Sliding door was a beast to open with a broken handle, which they did fix it. Had difficulties with door lock due to low batteries. Held us up as it was hard to get ahold of someone. The number i was given was a wrong number. Be prepared for having no where to put your clothes and no bedside tables. Overall, the place was clean and we made it work. Compared to other rentals weve stayed at with similar cost this was just ok. already thereNo extra blanket

Perfect Location

You can't beat the location. The staff at the front desk was very helpful with great dining recommendations. The bed wasn't the most comfortable, but was very clean and offered a great night sleep. The property itself is clean and has the basics for your stay. The property is romantic, charming, and beautiful with lush landscaping, walkable to all the local dining, shopping, and right next to the coastline. Parking is free but not plentiful. If you do not return to the property by 3pm you will need to forage for parking on the street and that goes quick in this area. Lots of people circling the complex fighting for parking spaces. That did not detract from our vacation. I am still unable to get a receipt to use for travel reimbursement from my employer, so if you need that you might want to investigate that first. VRBO receipt will only show their fees, not what you pay for the actual accommodations. VRBO will tell you the host has to provide that. We have been unable to get one, so are attempting to make our own by piecing together screen shots and emails. I would definitely stay here again, but only for vacation not business travel needs.

Our recent stay at this VRBO property was an absolute disaster, forcing us to check out within 12 hours due to uninhabitable conditions. We immediately had to seek alternative accommodation at another hotel, incurring significant unexpected costs and disrupting our travel plans. Upon arrival, we were met with multiple serious issues: Bug Infestation: We discovered clear evidence of bugs on the mattresses, including visible bugs and their droppings. This is a severe health and safety concern and made the property impossible to sleep in. We are contemplating legal action Widespread Pest Problem: there was a noticeable ant infestation throughout the property, including in the kitchen and living areas. Unacceptable Cleanliness: The overall cleanliness was appalling. We found dirty utensils and mugs in the kitchen, indicating a lack of proper sanitation between guests. Safety Hazard with TV: The television setup presented a clear safety hazard, with insecure mounting that posed a risk of falling. Completely Unresponsive Host: Despite the severity of these issues, attempts to contact the host were met with complete unresponsiveness, leaving us without any support or resolution during our critical time of need. The combination of these critical issues made the property unsafe, unsanitary, and entirely unsuitable for a stay. We expected a safe and clean environment, and what we encountered was a stark contrast. This experience was incredibly stressful and costly.

Our stay was beautiful, accommodations were perfect for us! The condo was well stocked with essentials as well! Parking was definitely our only “issue” but as long as you get back early, you’ll be able to find a parking spot! Parking across the road isn’t bad either, traffic is really in that area.

Provides the basics

Overall this is a good place to stay. I gave it 4 stars because the parking was stressful. As stated in previous reviews the parking fills up pretty early. One day we got back at 5 and took the last street parking spot available. Also, we had to ask for beach towels to be provided but it seems like that should be a given. The location is fantastic, lots of restaurants within walking distance and the complex is across the street from the ocean. The property manager was prompt to respond to our requests and delivered beach towels, chairs, and a cooler to us when we asked if they could be provided. The room is basic with just the bare necessities but very clean which is always appreciated.

Easily could have been better

No instruction as to how to use the fan or how to use the TV. Asked property mgr but vague answers. Ice maker did not work, even though property mgr said "of course if works." And no ice on central property. Bed was hard, no luggage racks so had to use floor or put luggage on short sofa. Overpriced for what we got.

Great, efficient place in a great location

Efficient and cozy - highly recommend… keep reading if you want more details about our experience. The window unit and ceiling fan were more than enough to cool off this efficiency condo. They provided a coffee maker and filters, and we picked up coffee at the ABC store nearby. It was perfect walking distance to Ali’i Drive to all the restaurants along the coast. Parking was fine before about 4 pm, and could have been tricky the night we got back later, but had no problems finding a spot on the street. We really appreciate that beach towels were provided, and the bathroom was stocked with body wash, shampoo and conditioner. We saw some reviews about the mattress quality, but we went for it anyway. It was firm, and my wife wasn’t sure she’d sleep well, but turns out it was perfect and provided a great night’s sleep. We’re grateful our host was communicative before and during our stay, and would recommend if you’re not planning to spend your entire vacation in the condo - location and setup are perfect for those who plan to be out and about while on the island.

Unterkunft in schöner Wohnanlage

Die Wohnung ist wirklich sehr schön groß und hat alles was man benötigt. Die Gastgeberin ist super freundlich und bei Problemen zur Stelle. Der Check in im Hauptgebäude war einfach und unkompliziert. falls sie mir einem PKW anreisen gibt es genügend Parkmöglichkeiten. die Anlage ist mit einem Pool und einem Whirlpool wirklich sehr schön. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und Restaurant sind alle fußläufig zu erreichen. das einzige was man beachten muss ist keine Lebensmittel draußen stehen zu lassen, da sie Ameisen hier sehr schnell sind. Außerdem muss man beachten dass es eine sehr große Anlage mit vielen Wohnungen ist und es zwischendurch auch mal lauter werden kann. alles in allem kann ich die Unterkunft sehr gerne weiterempfehlen!

There was no address that linked us to the property or name of property on my receipt. Could not get ahold of owner and actually found it by chance with the address numbers we were able to get from Expedia. The map on the email was not correct. The pool and surrounding area was very nice. The condo was clean and set up well however, there was no tissue, dinner knives, can opener or any barbeque utensils to use. The one knife we had was completely dull. No plastic wrap or foil either or salt and pepper. Also the sliding glass door was very hard to open. That being said, the lady at the front desk was very nice and helpful.
