The apartment is on the 32nd floor of a high rise building, and has gorgeous views of the eastward sunrises, and northward to the lush mountains.
It's a very centralized location with easy access to public transit, as well as to highways. Also, there's plenty of great food options, shopping, and things to do within a short distance drive.
Lisa and Tiffany were great communicators, very accommodating, and had great suggestions for food and things to do.
From the apartment, it took about 40 minutes to the north shore, 25 minutes to Haunama Bay, and 20 minutes to Waikiki. There's also a Costco (cheap gas, essentials) at 0.9 miles distance.
Our only hang ups with the apartment were that it can get a bit stuffy without the means of opening windows. Also, the parking option that's available was confusing in the beginning; you park on the 6th floor, take the elevator to the 3rd floor, transfer to a different elevator, then go up to the 32nd floor. You get used to it pretty quickly, though.
The local folks are tremendous, would bend over backward to accommodate, and are extremely patient and kind. The scenery, activities and people are more than enough to convince us to come back and we'd love to stay at Lisa and Eric's place when we do.
