The outside of the house looked a little sketchy at first, but I felt completely safe during my stay. The apartment tenants were incredibly kind, funny, and helped me when I locked myself out of my room the first night! After that, they gave me complete privacy to stay up late and paint after long days at the beach. This location is 2 minutes away from the Ko'Olina resort lagoons. I spent every day at the blissful lagoons, came home and made dinner in their kitchen for myself, and spent the evenings and nights like a hermit in my room. It was an introvert's heaven. If you're staying in the upstairs apartment, ask about the secret Hawaiian Paradise coffee hookup!
