The property is beautiful! I stayed here with my husband and four teenagers. The accommodations were perfect, with the king bed in the downstairs bedroom and the set of bunk beds and queen bed up in the loft. It was great to have two bathrooms for all of us. The condo is beautifully furnished and equipped for any cooking you would like to do at home. The condo also offers a plethora of beach towels and all the beach equipment you would need to have a great day at the beach. The condo is in a beautiful location with walkable access to several beaches and great restaurants at the Ritz-Carlton, which is a short five-minute walk away. We absolutely loved our stay here and will definitely stay again when we're back on O'ahu. Thank you so much, Nicole, for a wonderful stay!
