This was my first time using Airbnb and I couldn't have had a better host to ease me in. Jackie is extremely personable and was available to answer any questions I had for my week long stay. It's been awhile since I traveled off the mainland w/o my husband and I felt very safe and well taken care of from the moment I booked my flights to the day I left. Picking up the keys went seamlessly and she provided endless ideas of what to do and places to eat.
The room was as pictured and the location is spot on for how I wanted to spend my time. It has a nice view of the mountains which means the room did not get overly hot while I was away. There is a fridge, microwave, and plates to use but I rarely use this considering the proximity to so much good food! There was everything you needed for the beach, including snorkel gear, a boogie board, beach towels as well as a lightweight netted bag (nice touch!). From this location, I navigated 3 hikes outside of Waikiki, surfing, stand up paddleboarding, a trip to the north shore for snorkeling w/ turtles, a couple yoga classes, lots of walking and farmers markets, and of course, beach time. Just what I needed. . . . Thanks Jackie and Matt!
