Douglas and his wife, Ai, were very attentive hosts. One day coming back to the house, we were having issues opening the lock. Ai helped us and even got the spray to grease the locks and make it easier. She called Douglas and he stopped by in the evening to take a look at it as well. Both Douglas and Ai were pleasant and always helpful. They offered us some tips and suggestions on places to go.
The apartment is spacious for 2 couples or a family of 4. The closets fit our luggage and we had plenty of space on the dressers for clothes and shopping. It was also nice to have beach chairs, boggie boards, floaties and towels to take to the beach. The kitchen was well stock with pots, pans, dishes, cups and cutlery. We were able to cook during our stay and save leftovers on the fridge.
We didn't use the lanai as much since we kept getting rain off and on. Also, this house doesn't have AC. We kept the fans on and also the windows open and the house was cool.
The area felt safe even when we return late home and a few times we had to park on the bottom of the driveway. However, in the morning there was plenty of street parking. Also, to go to Waikiki it was about 10-15 min in the car and there are shops close by.
