Beautiful place to stay

10.0

Perfectly located in Wailua in between the north and south side and about 15 minutes from the airport. We loved having easy access to the kayak and river - highly recommend getting a 7am start to secret falls, we managed to beat the crowds entirely. The Inn space is beautifully maintained. Bonus having a washer/dryer. We stayed in Canal B and were using the lanai couch every night to read before heading in to bed. Definitely believe we chose the best one.
