Ocean & Mountain View Studio in a Resort-Like Complex. Makaha Valley, West Oahu

When we arrived at the security gate we were informed that we didn't meet the condo owners association's occupancy rules. Reason: my wife's name had not been submitted by owner. We weren't allowed on premises until the condo manager was contacted and a temporary approval was given. We had to report to condo office the following morning to fill out extra paperwork, prepay for parking and additional parking security deposit (these fees had to be made in cash not debit or credit card). surprised arriving to shoes on landing, TV on and dishes in the sink. The drapes were either missing or could not be drawn. We are in our 60's and just adjusted to the situation. It would have been nice to have had a welcome note from owner, as the fridge and freezer had a lot of jars of condiments along with bags of vegetables, some wilted, etc. Recomened if these are not the owners items (if owners occupys unit occasionally) that at least the fridge is cleaned out between guests. I would suggest that the over range microwave be removed and replaced with a venthood with light, as the light at the range and kitchenette is poor. Overall, aside from that listed above, we enjoyed our stay. The location and views were hard to beat.

We had a beautiful stay in Makaha! The apartment was the perfect size for me and my two friends and it had everything we needed! The apartment complex is well organized, clean and safe and had a super pretty beach in walking distance as well as a bus stop, parking and laundry machines. The check-in was super easy and the chat with Nainoa was nice and helpful! Mahalo!

A wonderful condo, complete with kitchen, a lanai with an amazing view, and located close to the beach. It was clean, well stocked, and we loved our stay here!

Overal stay was pleasant. We had a very nice view from the balcony, used the bbq area on several occasions, which was great and kids enjoyed the swimming pool, which was a great evening addition to the beautiful beach. The host was quick with responses and helpful. The only negative for my family was that the room was not so clean and needs updating. Also, there was no washing card. We ended up buying it from the office and paying just to much for one wash.
