This home was perfect for our family! We have two small children so having a comfortable and quiet home base away from the crowds was important to us. As far as location goes we intended to explore the island so this location worked out really well. We were close to Waikiki, the zoo, and the aquarium (15-20 min), and not far from beaches including Hanauma Bay (~10 min), and beautiful beaches on the windward side. We mainly prepared meals at the house but still enjoyed meals and local treats (shave ice and Malasadas) from nearby restaurants and food trucks. The house has a modern feel, is very clean and well equipped- there was even a baby gate for the stairs which is a spiral staircase. The pool was a big plus too! The family lives next door but we felt like we had our own place and plenty of privacy. Shirley was very accommodating and responded quickly when contacted. We couldn’t speak more highly of our experience!
