I would love to make this place an annual getaway if I could. Hawaii is magical on its own but to stay here to kickstart our stay in Oahu made it extra special. The grounds & gardens are so beautiful! My boyfriend & I stayed at the Secret Garden cottage and were met with the warmest welcome by Cristina & Finan (their dog :) ) It was such a great way to start our stay there. We enjoyed sitting out and listening to the chickens & roosters walking around & breeze through the trees & light rain that passed through from time to time. Great communication with directions on how to get there. We so very much appreciated the courtesy use of the beach chairs, snorkel gear, & beach towels, etc. as they were a lifesaver for all the wonderful beaches nearby. They have a TV but we didn't turn it on once. The cottage at night ran a little warm but it's Summertime in HI so that was to be expected. The standup fans helped a lot & just take a cold shower before bed & you'll be fine. We loved it here so much and appreciated it even MORE so when we stayed in Waikiki at a hotel for a few days after our stay here & were met with traffic, street noise, and loud hotel guests next door to us. No comparison!! I would 1000% stay here again & recommend it to anyone looking for a truly peaceful getaway and closeby to all the great places North Shore has to offer.
