This is about as good as AirBnB's get! We have not experienced hosts that are more thoughtful and helpful. John and Sandy are great hosts; there is so much attention to detail and little extras that make you feel well at home. Upon arriving they gave us a quick tour of the unit and some of the features; helpful! Bonuses included snacks, drinks, beach towels, and mats for us to use during the week. These little things go a long way. There is great, quiet AC in the unit, a must for staying comfy in the hot, humid climate. Bed is firm and comfy, no noises kept us up or disturbed us at night.

The location is perfect. A rental car is a must, but you probably knew that anyway as it's the best way to enjoy and explore the island. Very quiet neighborhood, away from the riff raff of Waikiki, etc. but island attractions are still accessible with a short drive. A 5 min drive will take you into the neighborhood shopping center, with local eats, chain eats, and useful grocery stores (I.e. Costco, Safeway, Walgreens). We were barely a ten minute drive from Hanauma Bay, and enjoyed it three days in a row at 6a right when it opened. Incredible!

Don't be afraid of a few bugs; you're in the tropics. Be sure to take your shoes off when entering. Keeping the door and windows shut limited our experiences to a couple cockroaches and other crawling guys; no big deal!

If we are fortunate to come out to Oahu again, we would be hard pressed to stay anywhere else. John and Sandy have made the unit a place that I'm sure they would love to stay in if they traveled, and that means a great place for you and I to enjoy.
