Our party of 7 found Lyle's home in Ko Olina to be just about perfect. Weeks prior to our trip, Lyle and I communicated multiple times to ensure our stay would go well. It was easy to communicate with Lyle who responded quickly and clearly. He made sure we would have everything ready upon arrival (including picking up food/goods we needed saving us valuable time from avoiding a trip to Costco/grocery store) and met us at the gate so that we would not get lost finding the home (Google/WAZE did not find the correct house number).
We found Lyle to be friendly, kind and generous even welcoming me with a Happy Father's Day greeting along with several Aloha gifts, treats and bottle of bubbly. As depicted in the details, the home is well furnished, contains every kitchen item we needed, each bedroom with enough space to stretch out, and the nice inviting pool is larger than seen in the photos. The gated community is tranquil, secluded (surrounded by golf course) and we found that the neighbors were all super friendly with Hawaii's Aloha spirit. While you will need to drive 5-10 minutes to Kapolei for larger stores like Target/Safeway, there is a nearby market that we walked to a few times. It's right next to Monkeypod restaurant serving mostly tourists, but it's close by and convenient. The home had several beach toys, inflatables, beach towels, 2 foldable chairs and even sunscreen making it very convenient and saving us money from having to purchase these types of items.
Overall, there is no question we will look for Lyle's property the next time we return to Oahu. Much Aloha and thank you for reading this review. Take care everyone!
