My stay with Lynne was fantastic! The location itself was really convenient, you can't get much better. Even if you are keen to explore places beyond Waikiki beach, it was really easy to get the right buses nearby. Lynne herself was really friendly - not only did she give me my first body boarding lesson (love it!), she also took the time to give me a walking tour of the Waikiki area and introduced me to great restaurants and bars. It was nice to spend some time together over dinner. The end of my stay coincided with a hurricane heading towards Hawaii, but Lynne actively monitored the developments and alerted me such that I was able to reschedule my flight to get out of Oahu earlier.
I would definitely recommend staying at Lynne's if you visit Honolulu!
