Colby’s place is exactly as pictured. As Texans who have Mexico as a neighbor, Hawaii hasn’t been high on our list. A girlfriend was getting married in Waikiki and the hotel she blocked off was outrageously expensive. Colby’s place had all the same amenities for HALF the cost and was an 8 min walk to her hotel. In fact, his place was probably the better deal considering it had a Roku smart TV and a small kitchenette area. Things to note that I always look for in reviews: communication puts Colby as an over and beyond superhost for sure. Pressure and water temp in shower was great. AC worked amazingly. Bed was firm and comfortable. I’m one of those weird people who like to workout while on vacation. He did have to add me on a list, but after that, I had no issues using the gym. Did feel slightly bad that the door you kind of had to slam to close and I hopefully didn’t wake up the whole floor at 6am by doing so. His place is walking distance from everything you’ll need. I will say security with Covid is hit or miss. One day they were pretty relax with me not wearing one on the treadmill in the gym (people weren’t wearing them at all), the next day the guy came in twice to talk to me and another girl about masks. Then again when my husband and I had our legs in the pool with a drink outside. Apparently no drinks near the pool. Not a big deal by any means, and again depends on who’s working security. I get it. They need to be black and white especially with Covid and the state just opening up so rules are in place just inconsistency with enforcing them. There were plenty of times we just threw on Netflix and enjoyed a few beers and just enjoyed being inside instead of throwing away a ton of money at a bar. All in all, the view, the cleanliness, the decor, the location, the communication, the amenities and the price puts this as a 10/10 place to stay. If you’re staying a bit and need anything at all, reach out and he most likely will come to your rescue quickly. Thanks for hosting!
