This was a perfect rental for our family. The house itself is incredibly gracious. Really airy and spacious with tall ceilings but still totally cozy. The backyard is great with a pool and hot-tub and waterfall and nice landscaping, completely tranquil and beautiful, and we ended up eating most meals out there. You of course need a rental car, and we used the home as our jumping off point to explore Oahu (one beach day in Waikiki, a couple visits to Kailua and further up the North Shore, a couple of waterfall hikes, etc). The kitchen helped us avoid eating in restaurants every meal (although we had dinners out in restaurants about 2-in-3 nights). The home's garage was also a fun bonus: filled with a pool table, weights, and ping pong. In terms of location, we loved that the neighborhood was so peaceful, and only 5 min drive to plenty of restaurants. One of the walls of the Diamond Head crater is only 3-4 blocks away, which you can see it perfectly through the window of the master bedroom, a really nice sight to wake up to. Rex the homeowner was extremely responsive and pleasant. Truly zero complaints, and we so enjoyed every minute of our stay there. It isn't cheap, of course, but it was such a perfect home-base for our family that we actually felt it was a very fine value (and we cringe to think of how cheesy and crowded the Waikiki resorts seem to be). For what we were looking for for our family vacation, I truly can't imagine a better place to have stayed. Thanks Rex!
