Breeze was a great host and from the beginning was very helpful sending us information about Waianae and the condo. The information is comprehensive and accurate. This was our first experience renting a condo and booking through Airbnb. We loved it and we'd like to come back. It was also our first time in Hawaii. From Waianae we drove to many touristic attractions around the island, it takes about an hour. But if we had stayed in Honolulu/Waikiki, it would have taken the same to go to the same places (North Shore, Pali lookout, Kailua, etc) even more due to traffic. I'm from Brazil and I'm a "beach veteran" and I prefer to avoid crowds like we've seen on Waikiki and Kailua, that is why this condo was perfect for us. Sometimes we felt like there was only us on the beach. The sea is calm and beautiful in front of the condo and after visiting many different beaches around the island we felt that the one we enjoyed the most was the one right in front of us. There was a hurricane passing by (Guillermo) parallel to the north side of the island, but in 7 days it only rained for a few minutes and we never got strong winds because Waianae is protected by the mountains. When we crossed to the other side, the weather was completely different, it was very cloudy. (this was a summer holiday).
We loved the location, the great view, the nice decoration, the good wi-fi, having the beach supplies and free secure parking.
