Tuika's home is just as pictured, only better. Lots of room, a very comfortable bed, well-stocked kitchen and really convenient location. The grounds are really peaceful, and we spent each morning enjoying breakfast on the front lanai listening to the birdsongs, watching the chickens or hanging out with his two lovable dogs. There is also a nice supply of beach gear, including towels, boogie boards, chairs and snorkeling equipment (which was pretty nice gear and allowed me to skip renting snorkel gear since I left my broken mask at home). The location is pretty central to the the North Shore, although getting across the island to Ko Olina or Honolulu doesn't take long either. I would definitely recommend Tuika's home!
