"It was a cabin with one big bed on one side and 2 twin beds, plus one upper bunk. AC was great, but much cooler on one side than the other. No indoor table or chairs.
The youth camps were going on at the same time so there was a lot of noise from the kids close by.
The staff did a great job alerting us to the Tsunami threat and where we should go. Also let us know when it was safe to return."

Hawaiian Princess at Makaha Beach
10/10 Excellent
"We absolutely love that place ! Specially being luck of getting a ground floor unit ( number 102)! We were steps from the beach, with our feet in the sand !!!!!
The beach is calm , beautiful and quiet ! Like a private beach !
I would definitely staying there again ! We were a group of 5 and slept comfortably! "
"The location is great, although advertising of it not accurate and misrepresented. Couldn’t get inside initially , zero response from host or follow up when help was requested. Upon entry place was full of live and dead cockroaches and geckos . Was not clean . Stove was deplorable . Dead spiders and cobwebs everywhere . Random left over food, condiments and frozen meals in containers in fridge . Pretty sure someone had been living there the day before or something . We got in during the middle of the night and I had to vacuum and clean after a 6 hr flight that had been turned around due to threatening tsunami. Zero communication. Ants under the cupboards and in toilet paper. Very misrepresented . As of this point VRBO has tried to reach out to host with also zero response so we shall see if anything changes . "
"Loved this location! Had everything I needed, north shore location, near the beach with the mountain as the back drop. Felt at home and the host made sure my accommodations were met!"
"we are boring people who just like a quiet beach without all the tourist thrills and frills. we loved the unit and the beach! yes, this community has a lot of homeless! if that is something that you are not accustomed to seeing or that makes you nervous, choose another location. "
