The unit is very nice, as a number of reviews have indicated. It is well equipped with kitchen utensils, silverware, and dishes. Microwave, stove, and stovetop worked perfectly. There is an ice maker but we bought bags of ice as well.
The TV, cable system (Spectrum), and DVD/CD player all work well. The internet was not working when we arrived, though a call to Vacasa resulted in a guy coming over and checking it out (it was unplugged so I felt like an idiot, but good to know the company is responsive). Safe is in the closet. The hair dryer works well, and there is a ironing board and iron.
The A/C keeps the unit cool, and there are ceiling fans in the living room and bedroom. We experienced very warm (!) water in the shower. Plenty of towels and hand towels. Soap is supplied as well as a few complimentary travel size shampoos.
Supplies already in the unit:
A small package of ground coffee, some sweetener and non-dairy creamer (probably 1 days’ worth). 1 package of Tide detergent (small boxes at 99¢ mostly available at Times Square Market). We found salt & pepper and olive oil as well. Someone (wonderful) left a package of Oreos, but they probably won’t be here for long. There are also 2 nice beach chairs, 3 coolers (1 soft-sided), fishing pole, and a beach umbrella. There was no facial tissue - only thing I thought was really “missing”.
We traveled in early to mid July 2021, and there are a number of maintenance activities going on around the property, with the most obvious around the pool deck, of which a portion (about 25%) is not accessible due to the work (picture). There are construction supplies around the parking lots (pictures). Parking is somewhat tight/crowded, although we have always eventually found a parking spot fairly close to the building. There are hotel-style luggage carts (bellman carts) that can be used to carry in your luggage and groceries.
The beach in front of the property is nice and free from seaweed, although it can be a little narrow at high tide. The lounge chairs on the beach side are in shade until midday, but are sheltered from a lot of the wind we experienced at the pool. Some days the wind was pretty ferocious in the pool area.
From the balcony you can see Moloka’i on the right and Lanai on the left. At night you can see the lights of Honolulu in the clouds above Moloka’i. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony at sunset and during the evening, listening to the water and looking up at the stars.
