For a family of 5 staying in Hawaii, this place

For a family of 5 staying in Hawaii, this place was perfect. It was safe, clean, well-decorated and it had (in our room) a beautiful ocean view from our lanai and the bedroom. Having a kitchen with a stove, microwave and large refrigerator were essential for us and they all worked great. Our room also had
– fast (300mb) free Wi-Fi
– a portable fan which we used every night
– small but effective AC unit
– large lanai
– beach chairs! Very useful
– a fold out bed in the living room. Not super comfortable, but great for our 2 teen boys
– I was worried about the elevators as we were on the 34th floor, but they had 4, fast, working elevators and we rarely had to wait longer than 2 or 3 minutes going up or down
-protected, ample parking with easy access to the elevators
– 5-10 minute walk to the beach
-outdoor bbq which we used – $2 an hour to use but well worth it
– the pool looked clean and inviting but never used it
– really thorough and easy to understand check-in and check-out instructions on the DACK app (free app)

I read a lot of reviews about Bayan before booking and, for us at least, there was no construction noise, fire alarms or water shut-offs. A couple of the numbers on our door room number were worn off and the hall carpets looked like they were from the 70’s, but other than that the whole place, especially our room and the open lobby, with a coy pond, were all beautiful. I’d stay here again in a heartbeat. Exceeded all expectations!
