I stayed at Richard's place for a few months and had a wonderful time. I work remotely, and this was a great place to stay on Oahu. The bus line runs right by the house and can get you around the entire island. There are life-changing hikes and views easy to make part of the daily routine of living in the Hawaii Kai neighborhood. Moena's Cafe has one of the best acaia bowls on the island and is right down the road, if that's your vibe. Walking the neighborhood in the day or night is safe and sound. It's a quiet neighborhood that's not too far from any kind of entertainment you want to experience from the wide range of exciting things Hawaii offers.
