This unit and the location are excellent! The unit is well appointed with dishes and any cookware you might need. At the same time who needs to cook when you've got some of the islands best restaurants steps from your door (Oasis on the Beach, JO2's, Zumo Sushi)!! If you do decide to cook in unit there is a well stocked Safeway just across the street where you can get anything you need. In addition to the wonderful food options nearby, staying on the east side of the island is great for being able to get to all the main destinations without feeling like you spent an entire day driving. Hanalei and Poipu are only 30ish minutes away and Waimea is under an hour. If beaches are what you're looking for, then Kapa'a has you covered! No they aren't the super popular south shore beaches and you won't be catching the big waves of the north shore, but if you're looking for some great sun & sand with a few waves in protected coves, the east shore has you covered.Finally if you're the adventure type and want to do some hiking, Sleeping Giant trailhead is under 2 miles from this location and offers spectacular views of the Island and east shore, we did a sun rise hike one morning and were able to see the sun rising over O'ahu! It was magical!If you can't tell, I highly recommend this property and the general location, it was one of the best vacations we've been on!
