Robb and Ayumi were great. We arrived late in the evening but Robb was really cool about it. They stayed up and waited for us. When we arrived Robb quickly showed us the unit and let us settle in for the night. Ayumi was so kind she had cold water ready for us in the fridge along with juices. She even left us fresh fruits and chocolate covered mac nuts! We really appreciated the drinks as we had no time to pick up anything between the airport and the house.

The house was easy to find so long as you do your homework before hand or have GPS. There were lots of street parking. The faded signs did say no parking on certain weekday mornings but we never had a problem during our 9 days there. The location was perfect for us. It was close to a couple of food places that were on our list: Uncle Clay's shave ice (the best!) and Bubbies. It was pretty close (10-15min) drive to Koko Head, Hanauma Bay, Makapuu Lighthouse trail. Maybe 20-25min drive to Waikiki if you leave too late and get stuck in traffic. Foodland, Costco and Safeway were all within 7-10min drive away. We went to North Shore twice, PCC once and Kaena Point State Park once. Due to traffic jams it did take a while (nearly 2 hrs) to get to some of the places but I wouldn't have traded this place for another location (especially Waikiki). We were happy to be in the serene and tranquil part of Honolulu.

The unit was super clean. Very spacious and homey. The washer and dryer came in super handy. The kitchen was perfect for us as we mostly only made simple breakfasts and dinner mostly consisted of poke. We never got the chance to make use of the patio and BBQ and enjoy the view. That was a bit unfortunate. Overall I would highly recommend this place and would definitely return. Robb and Ayumi were very friendly and very responsive to all our questions and requests. They were super accommodating and definitely made this the perfect vacation. Thank you Robb and Ayumi for being such awesome hosts and for making our stay incredible. Aloha!
