The location is ideal. Cooks Bay is a great area, walking distance to shops, restaurants, grocery, services and breathtaking beauty. The view is amazing from the restaurant and dock. We stayed in a lanai room, which means the back row by the road. These rooms are half the cost of the front row lagoon view rooms. Some rooms are really old, dated, in questionable condition and smell of mildew. Some cabins are brand new. The first one we stayed in had terrible odor and fired up my husband’s allergies. It also had an ant infestation. They were kind enough to move us to another room that smelled better and no ants.
The snorkeling out front off the end of the dock was quite good. There’s a steep drop off and you’ll see a lot there. We saw tons of colorful fish, a giant nurse shark, an octopus, turtles and an eel. The little beach was never crowded and great for floating.
The staff at Kaveka was super friendly and accommodating.
The breakfast was crazy expensive so we walked to the Maharepa grocery every morning for the best fresh French pastries I have ever had! I hope the walk offset some of the calories! We also walked to pizza place quite close. It was great. We ate at Kaveka restaurant for dinner once and it was a big plate of delicious grilled fish and shrimp… enough for two of us to share.
I would probably stay here again. The rooms not fantastic but for the price, it’s pretty good.
