From the moment we arrived, there was nothing but aloha coming from Hazel and Melanie. We were welcomed with beautiful flowers, water and snacks, and a lovely fruit basket - the basic necessities of a welcome package! The kitchen was equipped with plenty of coffee, as well as very clean dishes and appliances. The bathroom was also clean with the providing of soaps, toiletries and plenty of towels. Our family's favorite feature was the bright, very clean open concept with a beautiful constant breeze throughout the house. The location was central and not far from local groceries, food places, as well as Kailua and Lanikai Beach. My husband, two older daughters and I had plenty of space to ourselves and were respected of our privacy by Auntie Hazel; however, she never failed to check in once in a while to make sure we were okay. In all our visits to the island, this was the first place we've stayed where we truly felt welcomed and home away from home. We can't wait to share this place with family and friends and we hope that all their future guests will fall in love with the place and make as many memories as we did. Looking forward to a hana hou some time soon!!
