Summary: When you vacation in a lot of short term rentals you notice the differences from being in a home or a managed property. This is 100% a home. The home was fully stocked from the kitchen, to the laundry, to the bathrooms - more amenities than you would possibly need. All of the kitchen appliances are high-end, the kitchen is large and easily accommodated my family of six. The pantry was stocked, the cupboard had many tea options (which I love), dishwasher pods, trash bags, cabinets full of everything will need to prepare and enjoy a meal at home. We loved eating and relaxing on the lanai. The home is set-up to have multiple climate zones - simply close all of the doors to the bedrooms (which are well air conditioned) and you can slide the full wall glass door open to enjoy the island breeze in the main living space. It is a smart design that gives you the be of both, sleeping in A/C if that is what you want, and open air living.The master bedroom is great, but the crown jewel is the outdoor shower. Having two showers in the master outdoor shower is wonderful. The entire house has V-board paneling, the kitchen island has a beautiful quartz top, every inch of the bathroom is luxurious, and the master even has an add-on bidet.You have easy walking access to Brennecke's Beach and Poipu Beach and short drive to Kiahuna. Brennecke is a boogie board dream Beach - super fun. Loved Kiahuna.We stayed in four places on this vacation. This house was the best by far.
