Gorgeous place, nicely decorated home with everything you need for your stay in Laie. Bathroom and kitchen supplies are available. Beach toys/supplies are available as well.
Steps from the ocean but don’t expect much from the beach itself - the shoreline is narrow and rocky. House is a little difficult to find because it’s behind another property.
Had a bad experience dealing with one of the hosts - no accommodation or adjustments for COVID (compared to another house I booked [it was planned to be a big family trip] for the same trip who cancelled and said we could just rebook when the pandemic was over). I was not going to cancel, but instead rebook for summer of 2021 hoping that the COVID situation would be better then, but said host rejected the request. Only 5 of 16 made it due to COVID restrictions, and I requested a guest reduction to accurately depict our stay (which apparently also reduces cost), which the first host again rejected. We escalated this to AirBnb and the 2nd host contacted us and finally accepted the request (and denied rejecting it initially - though we showed proof).
Overall, the house is beautiful, clean, and I would imagine a big family enjoying their stay, however, only expect this if there will be no changes to your trip (even a pandemic because they will not accommodate you!). I was very stressed about COVID and the host not trying to work with me (I booked in Feb, pandemic was announced shortly after), and in general, I was just unhappy with how they chose to deal with us considering their daily rate. It almost felt like it was just about $$$. I would not book again because of my personal experience.
