From gorgeous and original photography gracing the walls to the airy lanai to the comfortable furniture and well-stocked beach supplies, this condo was a beautiful haven with everything needed to relax and enjoy the island -including a wide selection of popular books for entertaining reads.
The home is lovingly cared for, with plenty of space to relax, and everything is in great working order, with helpful instructions where needed.
The upstairs loft offers a peek at the sunrise, the airy lanai is a lovely place to watch the sunset, and the open kitchen has plenty of room to cook while chatting with visitors. The kitchen also has good pots, pans, and plenty of flatware, cooking utensils, quality knives, etc.
We only needed the AC a couple of nights, and it was great, but we preferred the breeze when it was around. I loved opening the windows and listening to the breeze through the palms.
The complex pool is divine, and the beach at Makaiwa Bay (the beach club beach) is a beautiful walk through the lava field or short drive. The snorkeling is fantastic, and the waters are usually calm enough and the reef close enough that it makes for a great first (or fiftieth) snorkel experience.
The hosts are kind and very responsive, and I really appreciated the extra trouble that they went to in helping me adjust my arrival times and departure dates. Thank you, Richard, for sharing your beautiful home!
