John and Sandy's studio was the perfect location for our trip and provided quick access to Hawaii Kai and the beautiful windward beaches of Makapu'u and Waimanalo. This is an amazing place for those looking to avoid the crowds of Waikiki, and John and Sandy's studio and garden provided a beautiful, quiet escape. We really appreciated the personal touches, including local restaurant and beach tips, snacks, beach towels, and beach chairs. Though the location is quiet and away from the crowds, it is still only a quick 3-5 minute drive from the restaurants and shopping of Hawaii Kai...so the best of both worlds. We would love to stay here again on our next trip to Oahu!
