The ground were beautiful and the rooms were big. It is a bit dated and rundown. The gym is…..sad. But the location is great and it was nice to have a kitchen and two separate bedrooms for our family of four.

Amazing stay for a family of four (two adults qnd two kida) - felt like a we were staying in a townhouse! Very clean property, conviniently located to the snorkeling boats launching base, supermarket and take out food, and being on the west side of the island - was dry most of the day (some drizzle in the evening). We will definitely recommend and stay again for our next visit to the island.

It was a great stay for the price. 2 bedroom was excellent for our family, with everything we needed provided. With 6 pools to choose from we often had pool to ourselves. Staff was accommodating to our requests. Quiet and safe. CVS, restaurants, gas station, and great beaches nearby! There were some noticeable maintenance needed for the outdoor backyard area but it was private and large.

We enjoy our stay at this place!. The check in process was really easy and fast, friendly staff. They have washer and dryer inside the villas and they provide you with soap it was very convenient for us because we didn't have to come back with a bunch of wet and duty clothes. Our flight back home was at 10:30p.m. and check out was at 10a.m. so they gave us the option to leave our luggage at the front desk so we were able to enjoy the island on the last day without having to worry about leaving anything in the car. They also give us the opportunity to showered there at the property before leaving to the airport, they even provided us with everything we needed for the whole family like shampoo, conditioner, lotion, wash clothes and towels, that was really nice of them and we appreciated very much.

Living here is very surprising, with two rooms and three bathrooms, the most comfortable place to live in Hawaii. The children said they must stay a few more days next time!

This property was amazing for families. Loved the unit layouts, great for families with young kids. Lots of pools, bbq’s for all to use. Units were clean, not brand new… but all in working condition. Staff was amazing and accommodating. Only downfall was parking was a distance from some units, but you could call concierge for a golf cart if you had lots to carry. If you like pickle ball or tennis, courts on site. And golf course next door. 2 minutes away from shopping centre, 15-20 min from downtown. Would stay here again.

We enjoyed our stay at the resort. We had a 2-bed, 2-bath apartment for our family of five, and that worked out nicely for us. I think the value for the accommodations is good. The property is well-maintained, but the need for updates is apparent. The bathrooms and kitchen in our unit were functional, but in need of a refresh. A small placard on the kitchen counter apologized that renovations were happening "on island time" (i.e., slowly). The exterior of the buildings also showed signs of aging. The pool was nice, but here again, you could tell it had seen better days. (There are numerous small pools throughout the property, so wherever you might end up, you'll be near a pool.) Each pool has a 6-8 person hot tub adjoining it. Ours was pleasant, but the jacuzzi component was non-functional, so no bubbles. For us the highlight was the beautiful set of tennis and pickleball courts that are on-property--but owned or leased by someone else, so they're not technically part of the resort. That said, resort guests are allowed to use the courts when available, and we had no trouble getting a court whenever we wanted one. Again, these courts are in pristine condition, meaning they are in demand. Pickleball started at 8 a.m. and was played all day long and into the night (a few courts are lighted). We heard that there were occasional tournaments at the facility, and I'm sure during those tourneys resort guests are out of luck. All in all, I recommend the property.

The property is a little dated but they are currently doing upgrades, it was a perfect spot for a family, lots of room for people so no one was under foot. Having the full kitchen was great and there are BBQ's available. We a few problems with funding that worked but when we did it was convienent. Also 6 pools to choose from and the tennis and pickleball courts we just refinished and were awesome.
