Luke’s house is an absolute dream! This spotless beach house is located on the water with unobstructed views of Chinamans Hat island and the surrounding mountains. My husband and I loved jumping into the water from our backyard, and relaxing at our private sand beach. We also made good use of the kayaks, surfboards, etc that were provided on the property. (They basically have every type of beach toy you can think of, including plenty of things for kids)
My husband and I spent two months at Luke’s place while working remotely. Location-wise, we loved living away from the typical touristy spots, while experiencing a more authentic and pristine island life. Some of the most stunning hikes on the island are in the neighborhood, while Waikiki, Kailua and the North Shore were just an easy (and scenic) 30 minute drive away.
Luke and Janina were wonderful hosts. Janina greeted us with a bottle of wine and bowl of fresh tropical fruit upon arrival. She was also very responsive to questions before and during our stay. The house is clean, bright and extremely well-appointed. Janina thought about every amenity. The bedrooms are close to the road, but the AC provided some nice white noise, and we had no issues sleeping.
Hands down the best AirBnB we’ve ever stayed at in Hawaii (and we visit twice a year). The place looks even better than it does in the photos. We highly recommend it, and we’ll definitely be back!
