My daughter and I spent 10 weeks on Oahu, and made this space our home during that time. The location was perfect for our needs. We were close to the site of my daughter’s clinical rotation, close to Ala Moana Beach (a great place to enjoy sunset), and close to the H1 for easy access to the rest of the island. The space is small, but cozy — and has everything needed for a day at the beach, cooking a meal, and sleeping soundly. Earplugs and a sleep mask were needed as we adjusted to the open-window sleeping customary in Hawaii, but we adjusted quickly. Having access to a washer and dryer was so appreciated during our long stay. Kirsten and Mike were quick to address minor issues and went above and beyond to get a coffee grinder for our use and even mailed back a charger that I mistakenly left behind.
The most amazing part of my stay was the gorgeous patio space. A large table for writing and dining, a big umbrella for shade and protection from the rain, gorgeous tropical plants and succulents, and several friendly lizards who are fun to watch. Kirsten keeps a vase on the patio table full of fresh flowers - a really lovely touch.
Accommodations on Oahu are pricey. This space is a good value with thoughtful touches and is so much more comfortable that most hotel rooms I’ve encountered. I am definitely missing my Hawaii hale. Mahalo!
