We had a wonderful stay. Parking is a little tight if you have a car larger than a sedan. We had a mini van. But not out of the ordinary for places in Hawaii and the host was extremely accommodating. Overall great experience.

Location, location, location! Right across the street to Lanika Beach. Kitchen adequately supplied with pots, pans cups and utensils. Zack was really responsive to my questions and replied quickly. Everything we needed (chairs, cooler, boogie boards) to go to the beach was available in the carport. Note parking isn't suitable for a large SUV or mini-van.

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Zack, the host, was readily available and responsive to our questions and requests. We were surprised to find that the access to another unit in the complex was across our patio which was right outside our living area. It was awkward to have strangers coming and going so close to our living quarters and I think this should be disclosed in the rental information. The unit is dated and worn.The kitchen is haphazardly equipped, with old cookware, chipped dishes, a mishmash of wine glasses and cooking utensils. Furnishings were fine, as were beds. The 2nd bathroom down one flight to the pool deck was labeled for our unit, but I think was also used by other renters. I know Hawaii continues to get more and more expensive, but we felt this unit was overpriced for the above stated reasons.

Nice beachside stay

We enjoyed our time in the Kukui House. The location is perfect as its walking distance to the beach, the market, and very close to town. We were comfortable and had fun using the pool, bikes, and barbecue.

The location is unbeatable: short walk to the best beach! Beds are comfortable. We probably missed the description that the second bathroom is downstairs, outside the unit, but it wasn't a big issue for us. We had a great stay.

We ran into the host in the garage when we arrived and they were very nice, at least I think it was the host as I don't recall any introductions being made. The location was great. The parking was not accommodating to larger vehicles such as vans, half of the week we had to park across the street at the beach and walk over, which was fine except when you're lugging bags. The bowls/plates had chips and the ants were out of hand, even though you are warned, it's more than you think. The second bathroom is not in the unit and downstairs by the pool, which the adult male found to be a good get away. :) The unit can use a good deep cleaning and minor upgrades. Aside, from that we did enjoy our stay very much.

The location was incredible. It is a few minutes to the beach, just like the description says. Great little beach as well. You can walk to a convenience store, pizza place, or the kayak rental shop. The pillbox Trail can also be reached by just a short 15 minute stroll. The accommodations were just as advertised. Look, it’s not a five star hotel, it’s a home rental that is in good shape, has everything you need, and actually a little bit more. It was great to have chairs and snorkel equipment. I am already planning my return visit, and will be coming back to this place.
