I really enjoyed my time at Malia's place. She is a very thoughtful and wonderful host!! The room is just as seen in the picture - clean, airy and lots of natural light. The bed is very comfortable too and the bathroom was also very clean. Malia also had some treats (fresh fruit and granola bars), drinks in the mini fridge in the room and snorkeling gear. I also thoroughly enjoyed the fresh coffee (brewed fresh every morning by Malia) and conversations with Malia. She is very knowledgeable about the area, things and activities to do around and in other parts of Oahu. On the day of our arrival, Malia and Bernie waited for us to arrive to show us around even though they had a dinner to attend. The day I was leaving, Malia gave me a beautiful print of one of her water color paintings. Both Malia and Bernie were very helpful and available for questions or anything that you may need. I was there to attend a wedding at Turtle Bay and asked for an iron and board to iron my dress and they promptly provided both. As noted by other vacationers, the room and the bathroom are in a private corner of the house and your privacy is well respected. I loved the North Shore and Malia’s place was definitely a part of the great experience. I will definitely stay here again the next time I visit the North Shore!
