As a first-time Airbnb user, I was a little nervous signing up, but Denise's condo was just outstanding.

The kitchen was fully-equipped and in great shape and it helped the kids and me save a ton on meals. Also, the bed in the bedroom was really comfortable for two to sleep on, and amazingly, so was the pull-out couch. (I have never been a fan of pull out couches! But, this one was perfect for me and a kiddo.) The sinks and the shower also had good pressure and temperature control, and the vacuum had strong suction to keep the condo tidy. Lastly, the air conditioning in the condo was fantastic.

The location of the condo was also excellent. We were easily within a five minute walk to Charlie Young Beach---we spent a lot of sunsets there!!!---and about a two-minute drive to Kamaole Park III where we saw sea turtles literally every day.

Denise made my first experience with Airbnb a great one. She sent me a detailed, easy-to-follow set of instructions when I was a few weeks out from my trip, and she was always punctual and helpful with the email queries that I sent her way. (And there were only a couple because like I said, she made the whole experience a no-brainer!)

It truly was a great, great time through and through. Sign up with Denise! Seriously: you won't regret it.
