"Just got back from the Westin KaAnapali Ocean Villas North and couldn’t be more happy with our stay. This is my third time booking with Vacation Candy for a trip to Hawaii. The Westin is so beautiful, right on the beach, steps from snorkeling, and just so perfect. We saw turtles right outside of the hotel! You can pack super light because you can use the washer and dryer in the room. Hitting up a Food Land and cooking a few meals at the Villas, or BBQing at the many spots around the resort also...
