"It is really very close to the beach, you can even walk it.i also love the place itself. very quiet. The only thing really is the air con is very loud that you can’t sleep! That is the tie breaker. Either you sleep in comfort with the loud sound of the air conditioner blasting loud into your ear or hot but quiet during the night. I always end up turning off the air and just taking off my clothes under the covers Lol. Also the small window by the back porch doesn’t have a curtain so the neighbor...

Greg and Michael were lovely hosts. We arrived a little earlier than the check in time and Greg made sure we were checked in and settled, that's really great service. They were both friendly and on hand if we had any questions about the property or the local area. Breakfast options were plenty. The quiche was absolutely delicious. Hannah is an absolute gem, she shared knowledge about local hikes, restaurants and information about the area. We would definitely stay again if we have the...

8/10 Good

Nice stay, but incredibly expensive. I would love to stay in the area for several days, but not at those prices - much better to stay in Volcano or Punaluu and drive back and forth. I found the desk clerk to be a bit blunt - she wasn’t rude at all, just not very cheery or welcoming. I also wasn’t impressed by the $15 fee to use their air-conditioning units - absolutely ridiculous to charge an extra fee considering the high accommodation charge for the apartment.

We were greeted by our lovely host, Gigi who helped us with all aspects of our stay and even accompanied us to do some snorkelling at the adjacent beach. Our accomodation was the top floor of a large Hawaiian plantation villa. The central atrium with a palm, tropical plants and a bubbling fountain was...
