I couldn’t praise Emily and Joe enough! They were amazing hosts. We requested to check in same day and Emily and Joe we’re quick to respond and help us with accommodation as quick as they could, even the kids helping them out when we arrived. So thank you all so much! We decided to ditch our city stay in Waikiki and go out to the countryside and stay at Emily and Joe’s place. It’s around an hour drive from Waikiki but the best decision we made. Many supermarkets/ restaurants and fast food close by at less than a 5 minute walk. A beautiful beach at the bottom of the street which you can even see from the upstairs porch! Not forgetting beautiful places to hike and the awesome Byodo temple! Definitely recommend!
