Loved our visit and would...

Liked: The location is gorgeous! In a calm, quiet neighborhood right on the water. Clean, spacious room, with a big deck to relax. The bed was nice and comfy. Friendly staff. Big sitting area with a view of the water in the lobby with coffee and banana bread in the morning. Nice kitchenette. Slow pace and very relaxing! Felt like “old” Hawaii!
Disliked: Since they are nestled in a residential community and built up a hillside, parking was a bit of a challenge. The spaces are small and hard to maneuver in and out. Also, the couch in the living room and on the deck was not very comfortable. Small inconveniences for such a beautiful, serene place!

Paradise it is!

Liked: The location with the beautiful scenery from the lobby. Friendly staff. Within short distance from beaches and Kualoa Ranch.
Disliked: Depending on the room you get, it can be difficult to carry heavy luggage up to your room. But we managed.

Very comfortable & grounds/views

Liked: Cottage was nice w lovely outdoor areas.
Disliked: Despite calling 4 times asking about items left in cottage, nobody followed up and called is back w info.

Very relaxing and comfortable.

Liked: Secluded and private on water.
Disliked: Parking is tight but there is enough.

Nice place without advertised activities

Liked: Comfortable beds and nice location away from the business of the towns
Disliked: They advertise as having kayaks, paddle boards, yoga, etc. but you have to book these in advance via QR code when you arrive and when we went to do this they were only available at 3pm two days after we left… don’t count on these things being available

Best location and views

Liked: We loved the location as it was tucked away from the hustle and busy city. We wanted a calming scenic location and we got it here. It was on the Eastside of the island close to kaluoa ranch where we were visiting. 15min away by car. The resort provided kayaks and paddle boards which we tried and had fun. They provide ultra water filtration for your water bottle which was convenient because we hiked a couple times and filled up our hydro flask. We stayed a week and eventually needed to wash some clothes so it was nice that they provide coined washers and dryers on site, which could be billed to your room for convenience. Huge plus. Breakfast was very light such as fruit and banana bread with options of coffee or tea. We planned to eat local restaurants to support the local businesses so we didn't mind.
Disliked: The only complaint would be the rooms walls are paper thin and so you can hear your neighbors nextdoor or above you. Especially with kids. Only thing we could do was run air conditioning fan to drown out the noise. It was hot anyways but ended up being a thing we noticed.

Paradise perfection away from the...

Liked: The property is well maintained and not stuffy. Very down to earth staff and vacationers. I love the windward side of the island and this is in the perfect spot with pretty quick access to Kailua, Waimanalo, and en route to the North Shore. My wife and I do vacations a bit different and this resort fit the bill perfectly.
Disliked: The only item we had a bit of a challenge with was the WiFi. It was a bit weak in our room, but then again, who want's to be online during vacation anyway?

Perfect Hawaii getaway

Liked: We had the best time we loved our stay it was comfortable. The resort was exactly what I imagined for me. It was the perfect Hawaii getaway. They even have barbecues downstairs so you can make your own food. You have a nice kitchenette we made our own breakfast every morning you just have to be aware that you bring your own grocery since there is no supermarket close And there’s no restaurant at the resort.

We will be back!

Liked: Gorgeous boutique hotel, wonderful attentive employees, a great place to rest and rejuvenate!
Disliked: Nothing
