Brian's place is indeed peaceful and spacious, and being one floor up, it benefits from the breeze that blows on the windward side of the island for most of the day, keeping the place nice and cool, with a beautiful view of the sunrise in the mornings. The location is great (within walking distance to Kailua beach and the local shopping centre), and the neighbourhood is quiet. The apartment was also nice and private, with all the basic amenities. Brian was accommodating when necessary, and even offered his assistance for equipment rental at various locations around the island, as well as with his dive company.
