Richard is an excellent host, his detailed instructions made the checking process very easy. The apartment is beautiful, clean, cozy, we felt like in home. The view of the beach from the lanai was incredible, we watched all sun rises from it while have breakfast, and experience we will never forget. The beach is out of a movie, clean, crystal clear water, golden sand and palm trees almost touching the water, we were the only ones in it most of the time. We say a manta ray feeding in the shore one morning, we saw several sea turtles in the shore, one even came out to rest. The location of the apartment is fantastic, right in the north shore close to the amazing Waimea valley, the beautiful city ow Haleiwa, and the Polynesian Culture Center. We will be back! Aloha!
