If you're ever in a Oahu and need a home-away-from-home, look no further than Captain Cook Resort in Luana. My friend's and I take a yearly trip together to celebrate our friendship, and we can honestly say this is one of the best places we've ever stayed. We've been to Miami, Las Vegas, San Francisco, Seattle, Baltimore and we've never stayed at an AirBnB that felt like our own homes. First off, when booking the place, we were given clear instructions on what to do before we came to the resort and a contact person (James) before we got to the place so that someone was there to welcome us and answer any questions we had. They also sent a detailed email with possible places to visit if we wanted to be tourists and local bars and spots if we wanted to remain low key. Next, we were welcomed by an awesome property manager (James) who welcomed us with the Aloha spirit and didn't mind when a clown car full of late-twenty year-olds piled out to invade their space. Now onto the actual room we stayed in. The stock-photo looking pictures the website provides for the spot is actually pretty spot on. It was a LOT bigger than we thought it was and just as nice as the photos show. There were 8 of us staying there and the two-bedrooms, two roll out beds, one air mattress and two couches were plenty of spaces to sleep in. The bedrooms and bathrooms were huge and could easily fit more than two people. The space was pretty much a two bedroom apartment as it also came with a laundry room, a full kitchen (with dishwasher, fridge, oven/stove, microwave), a dining room, a "living room" (it was an open concept so everything kinda blended in) and every time we came back, it felt like we were coming back to our apartment. The room itself is connected to a resort, so when you walk out...you walk out into the hotel/resort spot. But, the room is part of the hotel/resort so we were able to use the amenities like the pool and the gym (which I utilized at least once). The space we stayed was auspicious and everyone that worked at the resort was friendly, helpful, and available. No matter what time of day, there was someone with a smile and friendly "welcome back" or "get back safely" when we would leave the resort. The spot is centrally located so it was far enough from the crowds of the beach/mall but everything was pretty much a ten minute walk away. The shops and restaurants were a block away and the beach was a five minute walk across the park behind the resort. We loved just taking walks around the resort and stopping by the abundance of shops near by. Overall, it was 5-star stay and highly recommended if you and a group of friends need a place to stay in Oahu. My friends and I...
