Lovely location on the big island

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved the location, just steps to a less trafficked beach. The outdoor shower and all the beach supplies (boogie boards, beach chairs, snorkel gear) were fantastic. The house was well stocked and comfortable. And mary was super helpful with all of our questions. The only thing we missed in the description was that the third bedroom was below the main house and you needed to take the outdoor stairs to get there, so it was a bit tricky with our two kids.
