My husband and I stayed here during our last leg of Oahu before moving to mainland. Thomas and his daughter were like family to us and treated us as such. Thomas from day one was positive, encouraging, and awesome all around. He knew some good places to eat, shop, and just hang out at(dinner up the road played music twice a month). The beach was right up the road along with stores and restaurants. Rather then being stuck in the heavy Waikiki tourist area we got to stay in our private room with a nice breeze through the windows. Days we didn't want to go to the beach, or a botanical garden, the pool was more then enough. There's also the hammock and swinging chairs which allowed for a relaxing evening of enjoying the nature that is his backyard. There's constant singing from the birds and great photo opportunities with the beautiful geckos that pop up if you wait long enough. Other guests that came to stay in the other room were fun to meet and greet since they came from around the world. We only wish we could have stayed sooner so our stay on Iana st. would have been longer. Honestly wouldn't change anything and cant wait to come back and visit not only the beauty of Oahu but this lovely father and daughter pair that gave us the best warming welcome we could of asked for.
