Our stay at Meera's studio was perfect for our vacation. Where to begin? The room was private and the views of ocean and mountains gorgeous! Portlock is a great area to launch your day to almost anywhere on the island. The neighborhood is nice, safe and quiet especially compared to the cities of Honolulu or Waikiki. The studio set up offered the option to cook or eat out and bring home left overs. We did all of the above. A lovely breeze kept our room comfortable. Just down the street are multiple beach access points where you can sit and enjoy the view or look for interesting marine life. We sited whales while snorkeling at Hanauma Bay. Meera was available to help in any way and even left us an umbrella on a rainy day. We used the snorkel gear twice. Towels and beach mats were also appreciated. Use of the washer and dryer helped us stay organized. If we have the opportunity, we will come back and stay here again. Thank you Meera! We felt very much at home.
