Comfortable Villa for Family of 8

"We traveled here with 2 adults, 3 seniors, 6, 4 and 18 month old. Conveniently located across from the King and Queen Shoppes...you could see Starbucks from the property! Plus for us. A Bay Beach was a 2 minute car ride and the Hilton maybe 3 minutes. Clean, next to the pool and very well stocked from kitchen supplies, pool goodies and even things for babies! We got in super late and the manager even offered to pick up a few things at the grocery store for us. Amazing customer service!

Only negative, we could never figure out the AC...they said something about the windows/doors having sensors on them and that they had to be well closed before the AC would kick in; we closed everything but couldn't get the AC to work ...we finally got it to work, then it was freezing upstairs (apparantly it's typical in Hawaii to have only AC upstairs) and comfortable downstairs...turned the temp back up then way too hot...couldn't find that happy medium before our trip was over.

And though toddler gates were provided, we had a tough time jimmying the gates with luggage and such to keep our littlest off the stairs. If you have kids that you are trying to keep off stairs, this may be a concern.

We would definitely stay here again though...just need to figure out the AC unit.
