Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Mostly great…
TLDR: the place is beautiful, clean, and centrally-located. Check-in was a breeze and communication was great. The noise and lack of basic items in the kitchen would lead me to look elsewhere next time.
Pros: the space is lovely, functional, and very close to the beach and parking lot. The bed was comfortable and the mid-stay linen change was really nice.
Cons: it was very loud. I still gave 4 stars because this was out of the owner’s control, but it was more than an inconvenience. The windows are louvered and I know that means more outside noise, but we’ve stayed at Kiahuna before (this was the 3rd unit we’ve stayed in) and have never had this issue. Some of it may have been the proximity to the parking lot and generally more foot traffic, but unfortunately most of it was our neighboring guests. I have no way of knowing who is an owner and who is renting, so thought it was worth noting.
Small con: while the kitchen had a great supply of utensils, etc., it was lacking some basics I’d expect. There wasn't even salt and pepper, just a bag with takeout-sized packets. As someone who likes to cook, this was a bummer.
