My boyfriend and I stayed at this condo for a week, and it was lovely. It was clean, comfortable, and having the full kitchen and washer and dryer was perfect. Being February, we never had to use the A/C, and there was a lovely breeze blowing through the condo the whole time. We stopped at the Foodland across from Shark's Cove (Pupukea) on the way in and picked up some groceries - it's a very short drive, and we went a few times during our trip. Aside from the amenities, it's an easy 5 minute walk to the beach out the back door, and this beach is wonderful!!! I recommend you bring your own snorkel gear or just buy some cheap at the Foodland, as there was only one leaky snorkel at the condo, and the snorkeling at the cove is wonderful. They did have two beach chairs and 2 decent boogie boards. Also, bring water shoes, I saw someone step on an urchin and saw many while snorkeling, but was never worried with my reef walkers on.

We didn't regret for a minute that we didn't stay at the resort in a hotel room, paying more than twice the price! Bev greeted us when we arrived and she was very helpful. She lives on the other side of the complex and was able to give us lots of information about the best places to eat, etc (Lei Lei's at the golf course, btw!). It was a homey and nice place to stay while we enjoyed the magic of the North Shore.
