Perfect Location
This property is located adjacent to the public Vaiava beach in Puna'auia. The entrance to the driveway is very difficult to find at night and its on a busy main road. There are several grocery markets nearby and also several gas stations. There is direct access from the property to the beach via a private gate and a shower with soap for the exit. The property also has an infinity edge swimming pool. The check-in instructions were very clear and we also were able to have an early check in and late check out. Henri the host was very responsive both before, during and after the rental. The house had initial supplies of basics like toilet roll, coffee, shampoo etc. An abundance of towels and beach towels. In addition, the lagoon was an excellent spot for snorkeling and several fins and masks, a boogie board and paddle board were also available. The kitchen was very well equipped and had an excellent wind up shutter to allow service inside and out. All appliances were almost new and were functional. There was no kettle to boil water for tea! The house had AC in 3 bedrooms but not in the 4th, fan only. There was no AC in the main house, just a small fan. There needs to be several fans to move the air. Main bedroom and living room had TV. A nice touch was the fully decorated Christmas Tree in the living room. There are tons of bugs and mosquitoes and there were some smoke rings to help but this is not adequate. We tried insect repellent etc. Not sure what the answer to this is.
