We stayed here for a magical family vacation over Christmas week. After spending the previous ten days in hotels on other islands, we were happy to arrive at the condo and have a kitchen to utilize. We stocked up on groceries at the Costco in Lihue and the Foodland nearby and proceeded to cook each meal ourselves. The condo appliances are top of the line and newer. The resort also has a very nice community grilling area with three separate propane grills.
The condo is situated in an ideal location within the resort, it's just steps away from the main pool and very close to the beach path. The beach is about a 10 minute walk down the bluff, the resort offers golf cart service to/from it, but my family enjoyed the hike. We were a little disappointed with the beach, the water is quite rocky and the sand is pretty course. But there are plenty of great options an easy drive away (Anini Beach and Ha'ena Beach are two we really enjoyed).
A highlight of the trip for us was the hot tub. It's a great hot, I can't remember a resort or hotel hot tub that I have enjoyed more. My family really liked swimming after dark, under the stars. The pool has a very cool swim up bar which we enjoyed.
The property management staff is very welcoming and helpful. The grounds are well maintained and beautiful.
All in all, this is a great condo and I hope to bring my family back to stay here again in the future.
