The facility was a fantastic value. The attention to the needs of guests in advance was truly remarkable. The layout was well-planned, such that rarely was there a wait for restroom facilities. The staff was friendly and attentive and readily available for check-in. The grounds are well maintained and very clean considering the number of guests. I extended my stay several times and found each of the different suites comfortable and cozy. A great place to end each day of a Hawaiian island adventure.
