Waipouli
8.0 out of 10, Very good, (1 review)
"The place is beautiful designed inside, so well thought out. The galley kitchen had everything needed. The view of the pool and ocean are also excellent. I only gave 4 stars due to a noisy AC unit which couldn't be fixed during our stay, but our host was very attentive to try and get people out to fix it ASAP. The shades are also not great if you like to sleep in as they let a lot of light in. And the last suggestion I have is to add a deadbolt or chain so we know a previous renter and code...
