We spent 10 days on Oahu, staying with friends, then in the treehouse, then in a Waikiki oceanfront hotel, doing all sorts of activities. When I asked my boyfriend what his favorite part of the trip was, he said "The treehouse." Everything about this place is wonderful! Yes, you have to walk up stairs like it says, but it's worth it for the view and the privacy:) The actual view I think is better than the photos show. I would never have expected something called a treehouse to have so many amenities and so many friendly people around to help with advice and the toys (SUPs, surfboards, bikes...). I was a little nervous because we were going in a hot month and my boyfriend is pretty much always hot and not accustomed to humidity, so I originally was looking for a place with A/C. But it was cool enough with the windows open (all screened to keep out mosquitos) and the fan going that we were bundling up under the comforter at night even in August. Also, I'd say it could comfortably sleep 4 people, even though there were just two of us. There are regular towels, beach towels, toiletries, kitchen with microwave, toaster oven, French press, full size fridge/freezer, etc. the beach is super close...enough that we could walk down carrying a surfboard without getting tired on the way. Lovely place to stay. Thanks John!
