I liked the proximity to the beach which was just down the street with easy walking distance. The beds were very comfortable and there was a lot of drawer space. I didn't use the pool but it looked very clean.

Ala Kai (and Blue Marlin) - GREAT place to stay!

Our first getaway in 3 years. We love staying in the crest and thought we would try a new place. The staff were wonder. The place is super clean. The only down fall was no outlet to blow dry your hair in the bathroom. Very close to the beach. I would highly recommend this place to stay at!!
