Really enjoyed our visit and wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again
Pros:

Good location, very nice property, right on the beach, mostly quiet and calm. I think most people would describe it as “old Hawaiian” it definitely has an older feel but definitely well kept.

Cons:

My only complaint might have been parking. It’s free and we always got a spot but it’s a small lot and I worried we might have a problem.

Nach Renovierung vom Zimmer sehr zu empfehlen da super schöner Strand und tolle Lage
Pros:

Lage und Strand top - Aussicht vom Balkon Mega - tolle Gartenanlage sehr schön - kostenloses Trinkwasser zum Nachfüllen

Cons:

Zimmer in die Jahre gekommen, Balkonmoebel schon etwas defekt, Dusche hätte Entkalkung notwendig, Matratzen viel zu weich, Schlafsofa nicht angenehm zum Schlafen, Zimmer ist überhaupt zu klein für drei Personen!

We had an amazing time enjoying the beach, the tropical grounds, and the surrounding area that felt more like a neighbor
Pros:

The location is amazing and very convenient if you love beach time.

Cons:

The rooms are a little dated and could use a little freshening up.

Very satisfied, enjoyed the stay!
Pros:

Beautiful place, right at the beach, with a view. Liked that a drying rack was provided on the porch. Room was just right, comfortable bed. Close to shops, market, restaurants.

Cons:

I would prefer less bulky pillow, they were too large to use.
Wished snacks and drinks were available all day.
The walls are thin, could hear neighbors too easily.
Would like if housekeeping came daily, especially as sand gets on the floor.
Would like tea bags offered in room, not just coffee.
The security at night was an elderly man who appeared to have cognitive difficulties.

Un pequeño paraíso
Pros:

Alojamiento ubicado justo enfrente de una excepcional playa (Napili Bay). Hay piscina y barbacoas de libre utilización. Para la playa te dejan sillas y toallas. Nuestra habitación era muy cómoda y grande. La habitación estaba equipada con una pequeña cocina súper útil si te alojas varios días de cara a comer. El checkin tardío ha sido muy fácil y el personal muy amable. El parking es gratis. También tiene incluido un pequeño desayuno con café, fruta, y algún bollo, y algún zumo natural(cosa destacar, ya que en todos los otros hoteles que hemos estado alejados, no lo tenían).

Cons:

Que no hayan limpiado la habitación.
