This condo is toward the south end of Alii Drive, the grounds are fairly quiet and peaceful except for the birds chirping (but we consider that a plus). There are lots of long-term rentals here. Most (but not all) units are expensively furnished with large lanais. Grounds are well kept, and the pool area is particularly pleasant. Very clean, very tidy, very good deal. Not oceanfront. Some units have distant ocean views. The second and third floor units are the most desired here as the first floor is actually the lower ground level, making units feel dark. Some units may not have a phone, some have portable a/c units. The larger units are set up like lofts. 2/2 units (1,197 sq. ft.) are $140–$231, 3/3 units (1,400 sq. ft.) are $150–$241 (good value on the 3/3). 5- or 10-night minimum.
