Michael's place is a peaceful sanctuary away from the city's congestion. During our brief one-night stay, we were content to stay put. There is a fabulous view of the ocean and Diamond Head from the lanai where we enjoyed sipping wine in the evening and drinking coffee in the morning while listening to the birds. In the space itself, the owner's thoughtful touches are evident in the essentials provided, including food and beverage items, working kitchen, cooling fans, fresh linens and comfortable sleeping spaces. Moreover, the artful design of the place is both aesthetically pleasing and very welcoming. As host, Michael himself, is warm and gracious. My spouse and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
