The staff are the friendliest and most helpful I have ever experienced in a lifetime of travels. The resort was very clean and well kept. The location is convenient for reaching most of the island to sight see, shop, and go to venues for events. It is true the west side resorts would probably get a little more sun, but you can only be out in the sun so much, and those ones (Ko Olina) are quite remote from the other things I mentioned. The beach is safe and fairly private. The water is well sheltered by a reef. The snorkelling was ok with us seeing exotic fish like french cunard (winged fish), tangs, yellow stripes etc. including some schools of fish. The quality of food is very, very good. The workout facility is excellent.
