You'll be living among the locals for sure. We chose this area because we wanted to avoid the busy/touristy spots in Honolulu.
We enjoyed spending our week here. The home was clean, spacious enough for our family (9 adults, 2 kids, and 2 infants), every room had A/C, and the host responded quickly to my texts. The front patio area was cool, it had a fireplace and lights for when you just want to chill out front for the evening. The host's mom was seen frequently cleaning out front and was very humble. The living space and kitchen were a bit small but we did not mind it as we were out and about more often. The home is less than 5 mins from Paradise Cove Luau and Ko Olina Lagoons. Target, Walmart, and Costco are also close by if you want to make quick store runs or stock up on food during your trip.
