Everything you will need will be ready for you when you arrive. It was just like being home. It is close to Waikiki and other beaches in the East. Locale is close to all major freeways, so we got to see all of the North, East, and Southeast sides of Honolulu in a week. I was sceptical of staying in the same property with the owner, but it turned out awesome. Privacy was there, while help was just a phone call away. Mike is truly a great host and new friend.
