An excellent stay overall. Large rooms. The pool was the highlight of the stay. Excellent for kids in particular. Kitchen had the essentials, a large fridge, oven, microwave etc. There’s no direct beach access but it’s possible to go to the beach after a short walk outside. There are some shops nearby ...

Castle Kiahuna Plantation & Beach Bungalows
Our favorite place to stay. The room had some fun stuff for kids as well (boogie boards, beach chairs, snorkel stuff, i realize these rooms are all different but would be great if they just took a pic of the "extras" closet so we knew we didnt need to pack our snorkel stuff.

The view was amazing! Our condo was so nice. I appreciated the quick responses from the property on any questions I had. The parking was tight but doable. Great area for everything!
