I stayed at Central YMCA Residences while transitioning into my new apartment and beginning a new chapter of my life here in Hawaii. From the very beginning, the staff made me feel welcomed and helped turn a big life change into a much easier experience. I especially want to recognize Christine. Every once in a while you meet someone who leaves an impression on you, and Christine was definitely that person for me. She was always kind, helpful, genuine, and had a way of making every interaction feel easy and comfortable. Not only is she amazing at what she does, she is gorgeous, so much so it is hard not to notice. Some people just naturally brighten your day, and Christine did exactly that. Thank you Christine, and thank you to everyone at Central YMCA Residences for making my first days in Hawaii something I’ll always remember.

Overall, the stay was alright. Could have been worse, could have been better. To start, here are the things we liked: - location was far from the most touristy places (i.e. Waikiki) - Quiet (for the most part) - free kayak usage, beach towels, etc. - friendly and helpful staff Here's why we would choose another place in the future: - $28 daily parking fee - Upon arrival, the bathroom smelled like urine. The front desk staff got it taken care of swiftly, fortunately. - The bathroom towels were dirty and clearly not washed with bleach. They had a bunch of different stains and discoloration from various substances. - Bed sheets were the same as the towels, with a stain that looked like old blood. Gross. - The shower never got "hot" and didn't feel satisfying after a long day hiking or at the beach. - The driveway to get to the lower portion is insanely steep and not paved in a way that offers much traction. Our rental started spinning the tires on our first (and last) ascent. We witnessed multiple others struggling too, whether in cars or trucks. - The kitchenette faucet would not retract all the way and if used as intended, would spray water everywhere. Paradise Bay "resort" is less a resort and more of an island motel, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, it's just not a resort like they'd have you believe. If the cleaning issues can be resolved, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it, if for nothing other than the location and friendly staff.
