The location was great--small town Hawaii. It was a mile or so north to a grocery market and food trucks were nearby. I few low key restaurants were available, too.

The "true beachfront" location was the best aspect of the cottage. The North Pacific Ocean is literally a few steps from the backdoor. The only down side of the location was the road noise from the fairly constant stream of cars on Kamehameha Highway. Our family group used all three bedrooms. The one bathroom was a modest inconvenience, in part due the fact that it was not fully enclosed. Kitchen was great, with a large refrigerator and adequate food prep space. WiFi worked. TV was good. The cost was modest, at least before the high fees for cleaning and the rental agency.
