The beach is a great snorkeling beach, we never had more then 10 people to share it with. The kitchen was fine and we were able to make everything we wanted (I might bring a sharp knife next time).

"Property itself was nice and location was relatively close to Hanalei. As long as you don’t plan on golfing, I feel like the property is a good value. The golf course is super pricey so that was kind of a bummer. I’ve played pro course for far less but I guess when you’re in paradise, be prepared to pay paradise prices."
