Ocean Front Home with a Sandy Beach

10/10 Excellent
"The beach view is excellent. The laundry, dishwasher, stove and oven work great. Two refrigerators are very handy. Beach towels, bath towels and linens are excellent. Parking off street is great. The house has many comfortable sitting areas inside and out. Working with the host was excellent. Star gazing is excellent. Neighborhood is very quiet. There is access to several beaches in Puako and there are many turtle sightings.The home needs a deep cleaning and some plumbing leaks addressed. A working ice maker in the refrigerator would be helpful. Some general handyman work is needed to fix the sliding glass door to lanai which needs a new roller to slide well, fix a ceiling fan in the 1st bedroom and the shower head in main house bathroom which has very poor pressure, The screens on the windows and doors were in excellent shape. Bugs and cockroaches are present in Hawaii but I think a deep cleaning would help."
