"Very nice quiet resort. Room, facilities, and especially the pool we're beautiful. They'll try and lure you into a timeshare, but we avoided that. The area around it was very nice and you have full use of all the nearby hilton properties and amenities. The dining nearby was overpriced and underwhelming. The shopping nearby was also incredibly overpriced, drive 15-20min out of the area and your basics are half the price, or better. I would definitely stay again! "

"We enjoyed our stay thoroughly. Two wonderful pool areas. Beautiful grounds. Condo was dated but comfortable. Staff was friendly and efficient. They made sure we were continually stocked with towels and paper products as well as dishwashing detergent and laundry detergent. The location was close to activities on Alii Dr. the only slight drawback was that there were no beach-chairs, coolers or toys for the kids. Snorkel equipment can be rented in town however. Overall it was great and very quiet...
