John was one of the most wonderful hosts I've ever met (and I've stayed in a lot of airbnb's). The apartment itself is located in one of the most beautiful neighborhoods in Hawaii (a 1 min drive or 5 min walk to Lanikai beach), was immaculately clean, equipped with the newest appliances, a comfortable bed, excellent water pressure in the shower, tons of storage space, a cute little fenced yard, and a lovely porch for whenever I wanted to work outside (or listen to the tropical birds chatter away). Not to mention - the house abuts a small mountain (it's right there! like you're touching the heavens) and is surrounded by coconut, papaya, and banana trees. John and Melinda were so generous, gracious, and friendly. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. They afforded me a magical experience and for that I am very grateful.
