This was the first time my girlfriend and I have used Air bnb and because of this stay with Angel, we will definitely be doing this again! If you want the gross traffic and extreme tourism of Waikiki, then stay in the Honolulu and Waikiki area. If you want a true Hawaiian feel of the peaceful north shore, go stay with Angel and Duke! I cannot express how helpful they were! The first night we got a chance to talk with Angel for a bit and she is the sweetest host you could have. She was quick to recommend some awesome adventures and places to visit. They also had three dogs who were actually really pleasing to be around :) If you are looking for a place to stay in Hawaii, you NEED to go stay with Angel, Duke and Jade! I promise no one will treat you better!
