This was our first time trying out an airbnb. We are from here, the island of Oahu, and just needed a getaway, away from the city.
Liz, our host was amazing! Awesome communication. Everything she posted was accurate, but even better in person.
I am a clean freak! I don't like seeing a lot of dust/rust or just anything major dirty. Liz home was VERY clean and beautiful, like literally!! Way better than the hotel in Waikiki. It has everything a home needs, just bring your food to cook! The walk to the beach is just 5mins away, and barely anyone at the beach. May I advise though, that beach is not for little kids, however they can play on the shore (just watch for jellyfish).
I highly reccommend this home. Quiet neighborhood, beautiful mountain view in the morning, and just relaxing. Their is a grocery store, some eatery places, and a convenient store if you don't want to make a far drive. I also have read through previous reviews that its a bothersome to some of them about sharing the driveway or having a neighbor living in the same area. Honestly its not a big deal. We've only seen the neighbor a couple times pulling in or out of their garage, they pretty much are not seen during our stay. We did exchange words for a bit,and they were nice, welcoming. Other than that, you don't see anyone transpassing through the yard or barely anyone in general.
