LOCATION: Very close to the lagoons. We were able to run there and back from the Airbnb (about 1.5 miles each way) - a beautiful run. It's in a residential area so feels very local.
APT: Nothing fancy but you pay for what you get. Oahu hotels are absolutely insane right now, so this was the cheapest thing I could find. It was perfect for us -- we were barely there so just needed a place to shower and sleep.
