"Excellent host, communication was timely and detailed. The unit was just as advertised - the lanai was a special feature."

"Great value for the money. Fabulous FREE buffet breakfast. Rooms are clean, spacious & upgraded. Would highly recommend this hotel to anyone who needs a hotel close to the airport. We plan to return again next year. "

"Room was clean, easy to get the car from the valet service when needed."

"Everything was extremely well attended to. The restaurants, the beach, and the rooms. Dinning staff were gracious and helpful. There was one gal by the name of Kris Hernandez that stood out. She was kind, energetic, and enthusiastic. Very willing to please and make our stay more memorable. She is an asset to your team. I suspect she will bring value to your company as she grows with the company. She was so full of sunshine I had to mention her in this review. Please let her know she made us feel welcomed to your hotel. It was a great way to start our holiday. Thank you for the opportunity to mention her contributions as an ambassador to the Ritz Carlton.

"We enjoyed our stay at this condo in Hawaii. The space was comfortable and well suited for a beach visit, with a good layout, a well-equipped kitchen, washer and dryer, and all the basic necessities.Communication with the owner was easy and responsive, though everything we needed was already provided. We also appreciated the thoughtful touch of coffee and a few items left by previous guests.One of the highlights was the wildlife. We saw large sea turtles every day coming up onto the beach, and they often swam nearby while we were snorkeling and swimming. We also saw several whales during our stay. Photos will be attached to our review.Overall, we truly enjoyed our stay and would recommend this as a nice condo and a nice place to stay for anyone visiting Hawaii."

"The host was welcoming and the home’s configuration and decor was charming. Right away our group that included tots, teens, grandpas and all the ages in between felt at home.We appreciated the host’s prompt communication and flexible support as we did some problem-solving for members of our group (like lost keys and changed itineraries).The location was ideal with easier drives to the PCC, a great beach for swimming, wading, and photos right outside the back door and a real treat for snorkeling just behind a neighboring yellow house. The hammocks, outside tables and chairs, and especially the swing made the outdoors even more inviting.The indoors had great views and comfortable temperatures.Learning how busy the road is that it is near made us extra glad we had paid the extra money to get a home right next to the ocean instead of other options just on the other side of the highway. Crossing the road would have been a big issue, but we didn’t have to worry about it in this home!The home was well stocked with cups, bowls, and beach towels, but could be restocked with some more forks and another sheet as it didn’t quite have all that our large group needed. We loved our stay at this truly magical beach home. We hope to return someday!"

"Great Location-- I hope to come back!"

"Everything was great! The host and caretaker were extremely friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay again! Beautiful house and views. "
