Even better than we imagined

We were in Hawaii for my annual work convention in Waikiki, we decided to add a few days to relax on the North Shore... man do I wish we could have spent the whole time here! The house is just wonderful, our favorite part of the house itself was the porch, whenever we weren't in the water we were hanging out chit chatting on the porch. It has a huge door that can be fully opened, or you can close it to block the wind. The pictures and description are accurate, except for the 2nd bedroom, there was only a queen bed in there, which was fine for us- but if you're needing a bunk, it wasn't there. There was however the futon in the living room. Also the queen bedroom is the one with the attached bath, not the master- but the set up worked great for us. The yard is much bigger than we expected, & the outdoor shower came in handy to wash off all the sand. Bathtub Beach is the coolest beach ever! My 2 year old was in HEAVEN! We were surprised with a visit from a sea lion one day, he was so close we could have reached out to touch him (but didn't cause we didn't know too much about their behavior) It was so fun to see the crabs running around on the rocks, they're quick little buggers. The house is right across the street from the Polynesian Cultural Center, we thought we'd hear some music from the nightly luau (which we would have been fine with), but never heard a thing.
I can't put in to words how great this place is, I can not wait to go back!
