Excellent spot for a family vacation. The condos were clean, up to date and quiet. The pool was inviting- all of the guests were so sweet to our two year old. Food at the Castaway Cafe was excellent and you can’t beat the ocean views and beach walk. We would definitely stay again.

Everything was good except our shower room. It did not have a door and the water was splashing outside of the shower room and also, its flour was not sufficiently tilted to drain the shower water thus, flowing toward the toilet area.

The rooms for having kitchens had nothing in them. The pictures did NOT show the sleeping area upstairs and no bathroom upstairs either. Concierge. Was extremely unfriendly and we booked with her for a luau and she set up the 4 of us completely at different tables. It would be nice to have a small convenience store as well. No pool service even tho the bar was right beside it.

We loved the property for many reasons. First, the customer service was amazing. Everyone we dealt with was professional and extremely pleasant. Second, the property is well maintained. It’s not flashy like the properties around them. But that is what we liked. The property was quiet and felt like home away from home. Third, our room was well apportioned, comfortable and had a GREAT view. Fourth, we were close enough to walk to Whalers Village, but didn’t have to because there is a free shuttle that runs every 30 minutes. But if you had to wait it was so comfortable and relaxing waiting outside the lobby for the trolley. Fifth, FREE Parking. Sixth, an actual deep end of the pool. I’m 6’5” and it was nice having a pool that I could dive into. So many of the newer pools are only 4’ deep. So in conclusion, if you’re looking to slow it down a little from all the busyness of Kaanapali, this is the perfect place to do so. We are already looking to come back stay here in the future.
We were blessed with a rainbow as we were leaving to start our journey home.
What a view from our bedroom.
