Kriss is a great host! He communicated with us several days before we got there to discuss how to check in and was always a text away if we had questions. Would reply quickly as well. The kitchen had more than enough pots and pans for cooking. Even had some Tupperware that we borrowed to take food with us on hikes. There is a grocery store a few minutes away and there is no traffic around his condo. However, the traffic does pick up a little further away and it was about an hour each way to get to Waikiki and the other side of the island. Kriss’s place is probably better for someone not wanting to do touristy things for that reason. Overall would stay again.
