This property is good if you are looking for a place to shower and sleep. If you are looking for resort amenities or a fancy hotel, this isn't it. But it certainly served our function since we were out exploring from sunrise to sunset. We also appreciated the beach towels available for use. Parking can be tough if you get back to the hotel after 8pm.

Room was very small. Not enough parking. Had to park down the street at a park multiple times. Also, need to update their lock system. Anyone could use a credit card to open the door. Need to put deadbolts on the doors to prevent.

We stayed in Cottage D for 3 nights. One bed. Table. Nice size bathroom. Everything we needed was there. Coffee pot, dishes, toaster, fridge, dishes. Free parking in front of our cottage. 7 minutes from airport. We walked to the night market the next street over. And Hamura Saimon (must try!) was directly behind our cottage. Less than 2 minute walk. Poipu was a 25 minute (easy) drive. Convenient. Not fancy but wonderful. Had a old Florida Keys vibe. The only negative: after a long travel day, upon arrival, we were greeted by an unfriendly lady. Maybe she was having a bad day. I don’t know. But it caught me by surprise. The lady at the front desk during the next two nights was super friendly.

The pictures need to be updated because they’re not quite the same and the room is very small, but it was clean so we spent the night there, but we wouldn’t have been able to stay any longer. Also, the TV wasn’t hooked up very good to the Internet because we couldn’t watch anything. It would just freeze.

cute place, in town, convenient, the only thing was I paid for king size bed rooms, and one room only had a queen, I paid for 2 separate rooms, both should have had a king size bed, only one room did. another thing was there were bugs flying around, looked like gnats of some sort, our room was polluted. Aside from these two things, it was fine for one night stay until our resort room was ready.
