Puunene Trip

Loved this place, central to everything, ocean views, staff was excellent, would 💯 stay here again

Clean, super safe, quiet mostly (there was loud daytime renovation for a few hours a day). Nights were quiet. Well equipped room for basic cooking with a large refrigerator. Balcony was lovely overlooking the ocean with very active whale migration.

Here’s the good and bad: the view is fantastic, the patio is great, the kitchen was remodeled and is very nice. It’s lovely to have two full bathrooms and they were well supplied. But the place smelled like mildew, which could have been from 3 days of rain ahead of our visit but it didn’t go away. The carpets and curtains need renewing and the furniture looked quite dated. Overall it didn’t feel clean and it was not a relaxing place for us because of that. It just needs a little TLC bc the view is outstanding. We were traveling for our 50th anniversary so our expectations were high and I don’t think the pictures told the story of this place. Next time we’ll rent a top floor instead of bottom level. We’ve stayed at these condos before and the ones that have been updated are worth the price but this one let down our expectations.

There were barking dogs and crowing chickens but that’s all over the island we had a great time here and would stay here again the pool hot tub bbq grills were a plus loved having a washer/dryer and kitchenette

Excellent and beautiful place to visit.
