Our trip to Waialua was during a Hawaiian "hot spell!" We arrived and were greeted at the back gate with smiles and kisses from Angel and Duke's three dogs who are the sweetest "hostesses!" The property and studio are located in a quiet neighborhood and every bit as nice (and clean) in person as shown in the pictures they've posted. We really appreciated the thoughtful touches, including cold water and wine in the refrigerator, fans to circulate the tropical air and "local" Hawaiian coffee to begin our day. Although we did not meet Duke due to his work schedule and our schedule being opposite, we really enjoyed our time visiting with Angel and Jade. They were so full of Aloha and made us feel very welcome in their home. We are looking forward to seeing them on our next visit to the North Shore. :-)
