My husband and I had a very pleasant stay at JR's home. First of all, Richard is a great host, he responded very quickly to all our questions, brought extra hangers upon request and i'm pretty sure he would do even more should we need anything. But the house was actually so well equipped that we didn't really need anything extra throughout our stay. We enjoyed using the outside grill, the kitchen was well equipped too. The only thing we lacked was a dishwasher but that wasn't much of an issue, especially considering that most of vacation houses in Hawaii don't even have a full kitchen. There are also washer/dryer, a parking stall, beach gear and other perks. We had a tremendous amount of stuff and our own gear with us and the place was spacious enough for us to fit it all and not feel messy. The house didn't feel too cozy at the beginning but it was so functional that it actually started feeling really nice quickly. I'm sure that is because JR thought about all the small details to provide comfortable stay for their guests. The cleanliness was impeccable, no ants or bugs or other creepy tropical crawlers inside the house (which was a big deal for me as have a huge phobia). I can only recommend Richard as a host to everyone.
