Quiet Makaha Valley
Review Submitted: August 4, 2009
Date of Stay: July 2009
My family and I (2 adults and 2 school-aged kids) recently stayed here for 9 days. Many years ago we stayed in Waikiki so it was great to be with the locals and away from all of the noise this time.The condo was very clean (no sight of ants that was mentioned in a previous review) and the price was right for us. Condo was already stocked with dish washing detergent, sponge, salt, pepper. We really appreciated having wireless access, fans in every room, a full size fridge, cable tv, and a closet full of linens and towels.
Condo complex is well maintained and very secure. Very quiet neighbors - even the pool area was quiet. Seems that all the residents comply with pool rules. Great having the laundry room across the way too! Didn't see any recycling bins however so we had to bring empty bottles to a local recyling center.
Makaha Beach is 2 miles away. Amazing place to watch the waves and surf! Only 20 minutes to the calm lagoons at Ko Olina (perfect for families with young kids and decent snorkeling near the rocks). Only 30 minutes to Costco and Target, (recently opened) which was where we stocked up on groceries, snacks for the kids and gas. Quite a drive to the North Shore and east side (1 hour away). We didn't realize that Farrington Hwy ends so there's no shorter access to the North Shore, though that didn't stop us from visiting the North!
