Couldn’t ask for more. Precious and Broderick’s home was exactly what we needed for my wife, our 4 year old son and my mother-in-law’s 10-day stay on Oahu.
A short 25 minute drive from the airport, Ko Olina is a beautiful and perfect refuge away from all the action of Honolulu and Waikiki. The protected man-made lagoons at the resort are ideal for the keiki, keeping them contained, entertained and away from the hazards of the open ocean. While difficult to get a parking spot, Paradise Cove was the most desirable of all the lagoons. And having beach chairs, an umbrella and various sand toys available in their home made beach outings a simple grab-and-go adventure.
While not centrally located, as long as you avoid peak traffic hours, getting around Oahu to all the sights was easy from Ko Olina. Just kick back and enjoy the scenery on the long drives to the North Shore, Kailua Bay or Yokohama Beach. And of course, Waikiki is only a 40 minute drive away. With Costco and Target a short 10 drive away, it was easy to stock up for the week on food to cook at the house, keeping our vacation costs down.
Looking forward to staying here again. Thanks Precious and Broderick for hosting us.
