My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Michael's and Cristina's Mauka Studio. It was easy enough to find and their directions were great. The studio is well appointed, with charming decor and just the right amount of furniture for two people to be comfortable. The view from the front porch was lovely. When something needed maintenance, Michael gave it immediate attention. The neighborhood is not exactly silent. We never found parking right outside the studio, but never had to walk more than a minute or two to where we left our car. It was nice to be outside of Honolulu and close to the highways for the North Shore. The flowering plants in the gardens were very tasteful and I enjoyed seeing tiny lizards here and there. We greatly appreciated that the studio came with grass matts, beach chairs, and snorkel gear that we could borrow - a sweet and generous touch:)
All the best and thanks for hosting us,
Dom and Kari
