My Wife and I had a great authentic Hawaiian experience at Jays beach studio. It was one of the cheapest places we found and turned out to be perfect. The house is new and we had a brand new king bed with our own A/C. There is a really nice washer and dryer to wash clothes and a car wash station to wash and vacuum your rental before returning it. The location it great, and not overcrowded with tourists at all. Way better than the Waikiki side. Jay told us about all the best beaches and had all the gear for a full day at the beach. We saw turtles, a seal, and hundreds of fish at his recommend beaches. He was also very accommodating with our change of plans which was super helpful for us. It fills up with people fast, but we will be back next time.
