The location of the property was close to the shoreline, and close to several awesome beaches, no matter which way you headed (North or South). There are roosters next to the property that you can hear nice & early, but there are chickens all over Hawaii so this was no surprise. It should be noted that the neighbors are unique, I wish someone had reviewed that part - they're respectful but unique to the neighborhood. The house was comfortable and in a good middle location between so many things, so overall it was a good stay!
