Hillary, thanks again for a wonderful stay at your beautiful home. I can only recommend this place to everyone else: great location, stunning view, beautiful and spacious home. We had a great time and if we ever get back to this area, we definitely would book with you again. Mahalo!

Hillary is a fantastic host and her place is amazing with the best view in Kaneohe.

The house is absolutely amazing. Breathtaking views!! It's in a nice quiet area of Oahu, close to shops but unfortunately nothing is within walking distance so you do have to drive everywhere. Hillary is a great host, really friendly and helpful for all of the info on the island that we needed.

This place is gorgeous and luxurious! It is quiet and secluded with wonderful views. Hilary was a great hostess. Highly, highly recommend this place!

My wife and I are convinced we found the best place to stay in Oahu. This place is more beautiful than the pictures suggest. Near 360 degree views from a hilltop precipice. The home is situated across the road that hugs the shore line of Kaneohe Bay. From the driveway, observation deck or huge windows in the front one take in the views of the bay that include majestic views of moonlight soaked Mokapu across the bay and Moku-o-loe Island ( Coconut Island ). Coconut Island is the Island that appears in the opening scene of Gilligan’s Island! From the observation deck, rear facing windows or back yard one can view the Kaneohe region. The geography there is speckled with hilltop homes and lush tropical greenery. The rear canvas of this view is a gorgeous mountain that separates the Kaneohe region from Honolulu. From the house we drove to Honolulu in about 20 minutes. There are several rooms available to rent and the space and amenities of each differ greatly. We were not looking for a place to spend time at and booked the most affordable room to provide a place to flop for the night after exploring the Island. It provided that well. The bed is comfortable. I have a bad back but I woke up each morning with no problems from the bed. The place is clean. Our hosts, Hillary and Larry were on the premises ( living on a separate floor ). The respected our privacy but where available when we needed them for anything. By the end of our stay we got to know them well because we enjoyed their company. But if you want privacy and your own space they will give that to you. They helped us make plans with recommendations for restaurants and activities in the area. We’re looking forward to going back there.

The house is in a beautiful location giving a local feel to the island. After touring O'ahu, we realized that this house is in one of the most beautiful areas of the island. We enjoyed the views, solitude and access to amenities such as the pool and kitchen. Everything we wanted to see/do was within a 30-45min drive or less. The hosts were great, clearly communicating with us as well as available to provide suggestions.

Amazing home and Hillary was more than accomdating! We would hughly reccommend this place!

Nous avons très peu vu Hillary (nous étions un peu en retard à cause des bouchons et Hillary devait partir). Toutefois, nous avons échangé via sms et elle nous a donné de bons conseils. La maison était très propre et avec plus que le confort nécessaire. La chambre est petite mais on s'en accommode très bien. La partie à vivre de la maison est gigantesque. Les vues sur les montagnes et l'océan sont époustouflantes. La maison est très bien située (15 mn de Kailua et 30 mn d'Honolulu). Je recommande ce logement si vous voulez éviter la foule d'Honolulu.

Tastefully decorated private studio with very well equipped kitchen! Aubrey was very friendly and helpful. Just a short drive to Kailua with cute shops and restaurants but also has grocery stores in walking distance. Would definitely recommend staying there.

We enjoyed our stay and we loved the space! The location is close to the town but at night it was really quiet and peaceful. Private entrance was a plus. I think we would definitely consider staying here again.:)

Aubrey and Brady are excellent hosts and provided excellent tips and advice as well. My wife and I stayed for 10 days and loved the quiet, secluded spot on the cul-de-sac - what a perfect place to relax after busy days hiking, snorkeling, exploring Oahu. All the extras like beach chairs and snorkel gear made us really glad we opted for this place instead of a hotel. Wish we could have stayed longer and spent more mornings listening to the birds sing outside our windows!

We loved our honeymoon here! The place was beautiful and close to many fun things and our hosts were warm and very helpful!

Very nice and clean studio with a small kitchen.We enjoyed the possibility to cook. Perfect place for a couple. Thank you Aubrey & Brady for the great time in the Studio.

The place was fantastically cute and had all that we needed to make meals for our-selfs. It was such a treat to wake up to the sounds of birds in the morning. Aubrey and Brady were very kind and made us feel right at home. They were so helpful in whatever we needed and spent much of there time telling us about the island and things that they thought we would like to do.

The studio is just as cute in person and is literally "surrounded by nature". We woke up every morning to the beautiful sound of birds chirping. I was a little caught off guard by geckos that we saw on the ceiling and windows but they didn't bother us, it's to be expected in Hawaii. The studio is fully stocked with everything you could possibly need including snorkelling gear! Aubrey was easily accessible and easy to reach. The location is ideal and is around the corner from Lanikai beach, and 30 minutes from the airport and Waikiki. It was the perfect location from which to explore the entire island without that "touristy" feel.

I have stayed at a lot of places and this was by for the most relaxed and welcoming experience. There were boggie boards and a clean welcoming room and yard. Even games. Very family friendly. My only comment would be that you should plan on having a car, but most visitors do so it should not be a problem.

Very cozy studio with a great bed and even better views. Short walk to the beach. An all around great place to stay.

The place is lovely and the location is in a good place to visit the entirety of the island (we had a rental car), and is tranquil and beautiful in its own right. It is on the edge of the rain forest, and only a block away from the beach. Expect some bugs, though repellent was thoughtfully supplied within the room. The consideration given to these amenities as well as the layout of the room were really outstanding. Lisa offered excellent advise on what to do when the rain required us to change our plans. P.S. Koa (her golden retriever) is wonderful.

To start, this spot is really wonderful location that is close to the airport and Honolulu but far enough away to see some more beautiful and natural parts of the island of Oahu. Lisa and Greg are both extremely friendly and hospitable when welcoming new people to their home. The AirBnB is a very nice studio with a separate entrance and spotlessly clean. Perfect getaway for my three night adventure to Hawaii. Nearby Kaneohe is easy to get to with a short drive south while much more rural areas with beaches if you head north. I cannot wait to go back on another trip and this would be the very first place I check when I do head this direction again. Thank you again Lisa!

Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt bei Lisa und ihrem Freund, nette Begrüßung (Sie hat uns sogar selbstgemachte Kekse gebracht),Eier,Kaffee,Bier war im Kühlschrank!Grundausstattung Küche war vorhanden,Ofenplatte,Mikrowelle,Toaster,Kaffeemaschine,Kühlschrank.Das Zimmer befindet sich direkt neben dem Haupthaus.Lisa hat uns viele gute Infos zukommen lassen was man alles machen kann!Mahalo

This was the best Air BnB we have stayed at since we started! Lisa did a great job and the place was wonderful. It would be hard to choose another location. She had great recommendations and was very helpful. We really enjoyed our stay!

Lisa's place was awesome! The studio was furnished exactly as described and the bed was very comfortable. She was very helpful with directions to local hiking spots and attractions. I would highly recommend this place to another person or couple.

The apartment is cosy and very comfy. Check-in and check-out is super easy! Towels are provided, there is a small grill available and the small garden is just perfect to relax. Location is nice if you have a car, bay is suitable for SUP and we even spotted turtles in the shallow water, to Kailua beach and Pillbox Hike it's just a 20min drive (A MUST!) and about 35-40min to the Honolulu airport. Lisa is a great host and she even gave us some homemade cookies!

Lisa's apartment was the perfect base for our Oahu adventures. She had plenty of great recommendations nearby and around the island. Having some chairs, snorkel gear to borrow and a hiking trail right out of the backyard was a great bonus too!

Great, peaceful and unreal views. Therese and Lenny are amazing and are very responsive. Would definitely stay again!

Loved it!! We would definitely consider staying again, even suggesting friends join us and rent both upstairs and downstairs. It is peaceful and quiet, the view is stunning. Lenny and Therese were exceptional and thoughtful hosts.

Great view ! Lovely place!

Place was awesome. Hands down worth the price and the hosts were very accommodating and friendly. Would recommend this place to any and everyone

We had a great time staying at Lenny and Therese's place! It was incredibly beautiful and very calming/relaxing to look out at the water throughout the day. The unit was super well equipped with great snacks and drinks and they really thought of everything. I communicated with Therese quite a bit and she was very responsive, friendly and polite. We really had a great stay and hope to go back sometime.

Picture being in a house boat and you get the feel of the place. Awesome to wake to. Had a great time.

We stayed on the 2nd floor of Lenny & Therese's rental in Kaneohe. The photo of the bay from the lanai was exactly as pictured and more. It was great to see the sunrise every morning and sunsets at night. The lanai is also a great place to just lounge and catch some rays during the day. Inside was clean and well equipped with all of the amenities. They even had some Hawaiian treats for us to nibble on. Very nice touch. Lenny and Therese were also very quick to reply to any inquiries via text. They were exceptional hosts. Had an excellent experience for our first Airbnb experience. Would love to stay at their place again when back in Oahu. Highly recommended!

The place was perfect for our four night stay in Oahu. The deck was a wonderful place for morning coffee (watching the sunrise), mid-afternoon lunch or evening cocktails. Quiet with beautiful views. Inside was as described -- we really used it just for sleeping. Great place to spend a couple of days in Oahu!

Sarah and John are amazing hosts; from the time of booking, to the end of our stay. I had some trouble with the dates at first, but Sarah graciously blocked the dates for 24 hours while we got our stay sorted (since I wanted to stay out of Waikiki as much as possible). Our flight was delayed and instead of arriving at 9pm, we didn't get to the house until after 2am. I had sent Sarah a message beforehand, and they had everything prepared for us since it was already late. I would also like to note: The directions she gave us were so accurate - it was unbelievably dark, and for us to find their place is nothing short of incredible. We met them the next day and they spent some time getting to know us, giving us a tour of the place, and generally made us feel at home. Sarah has a "Bible" with her recommendations, and even tweaked it a bit and reprinted me a copy that I can keep. (Fresh Catch is definitely a must!) The bedroom views are simply amazing and the Lanai views even more breathtaking - you truly won't be disappointed. Also, McKay is so adorable, make sure you spend some time to play with him :) Will highly recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay in Oahu. It is a drivable distance within anywhere in the island, so transportation issues won't be a problem. PS. Do use the white noise machine, it works wonders.

Great location and great room. Sarah and John made me feel like I was in home.

We had a great stay at Sarah's place. The location is great with easy access to all parts of Oahu. Shopping and restaurants are close by. The place itself is very clean and well maintained. And the hosts are very welcoming and make sure that the stay is great. We would come back in a heartbeat!

I absolutely loved this place! I was already very familiar with the area since I have relatives who used to live in the immediate neighborhood, but it really was easy to get to KAM Highway, and there were plenty of shops and restaurants within a short driving distance. The views from the lanai were spectacular, and I loved falling asleep to the sound and feel of the tradewinds coming through the bedroom window. I was able to cook meals in the spacious kitchen, and though there was a shared bathroom, I never had an issue with access. The cherry on the top was the little Boston terrier, McKay, who was my constant companion while I was at the property. McKay has such a delightful personality and brought me immense joy while I was there. Parking is easy and I never had an issue with getting a spot in the driveway. Honestly, I can't say enough good things about this place and about the hosts who were so kind and friendly. I would absolutely stay here again.

This was my first experience with AirBnb, so I was a little bit apprehensive that it would be awkward staying in the home of someone I'd never met. However, it wasn't awkward at all! John and Sarah made us feel right at home. McKay is an absolute darling, and the views did not disappoint! The bed was SO comfortable, and although Sarah and John seemed concerned about the feral chickens waking us up, and even provided a white noise machine, the roosters didn't bother us one bit. I sleep with ear plugs anyways, so we didn't bother using the sound machine. I vaguely remember hearing a rooster one morning, though, "You're going to have to try harder than that Chicken," and immediately went back to sleep. We didn't see much of our hosts since we were gone most of the days until after dark, but our exchanges with them were friendly and comfortable. Would definitely stay again!

Great place, the view is the best part of it all. Safe place, easy access to get anywhere on the island, and your hosts are easy to get along with! I always appreciate a balance of conversation, suggestions, and allowing the guests privacy - perfect. They are so adaptable for all guests! Thanks John and Sarah! See you next time! :) PS... their dog is super fun to play with!

My friend and I visited the Hawaiian islands for first time and we were lucky to book our stay with Sarah and John. They answered our pre booking questions instantaneously! John was our pleasant and resourceful host for the duration of 6 wonderful days in Oahu. The view from the lanai is breathtaking, nice room, clean bathroom and full kitchen. Their dog McKay is lovely and playful companion. John provided air mattress promptly. The location is in the heart of Kaneohe close to all major roads, city and beaches. Will book with them again! Thanks guys :) With gratitude, Daniel and Alex

Cleaness great. Infra great. Host great. Price great. Location good.

Cherie is a great host. She was very accomodating and understanding with our flight schedule. The loft is beautiful, in a very convenient and desirable location. Loft was in great/newer condition fully stocked with home/bath/kitchen essentials. About 30mins drive to Waikiki and about 35mins drive to North Shore. Longs Drugs is located across the street. The onsite manager was also very friendly and informative upon arrival!

Beautiful place ! We loved it! New, nice and clean.

The place is beautiful! It is very clean and the lighting that comes in from the outside is great too. I would highly recommend this place.

Stayed first week of february. Cherie's place looks exactly like the photos. New and clean. Received easy directions to her place 48hrs prior to arrival. Easy to find. Kitchen is well stocked with pots/pans/plates/tubberware, even had a lovely welcome basket with snacks, coffee and tea. Still need to get your basic cooking supplies (oils, salt, pepper..), but grocery store walking distance across the street. Personally think you need a car to stay at this place as no beaches within walking distance, Kailua beach only 10 mins drive away with lots of parking (even on the weekend). All the rooms have ceiling fans and individual air conditioning units, there was a nice breeze with the windows open however is on a busy street so did get noisy for sleeping. Overall wonderful stay! Definitely recommend :)

Spacieux, propre et TRÈS confirtable! À recommander! :)

Thank you so much for the wonderful stay! I really enjoyed Windward Loft! The loft was very spacious for me since I was traveling solo and could accommodate 2 - 4 people easily. The bedroom was really large, so it was great that I could put my luggage down and I still had lots of space to move around. I love that you have provided everything in the loft to make it feel like a home away from home. Also really great walking access to shops (just across the road!) and a short drive to the beach.

This place feels just like home! You've got everything readily available to you that you'd have at home. Cherie was a great host and even though I was there for work, it still felt like a relaxing Hawaiian getaway!

Connie and Dean are great hosts; wonderful, charming people. The studio is super clean and well appointed. It is refreshing to stay in a place where the owner cares about quality. The towels and linens are upscale; there is very nice Hawaiian art on the walls; champagne glasses are provided; and a lighted make-up mirror is a nice touch. The studio is located in an very nice neighborhood and Connie's home is stunning. Some reviewers have commented on the steepness of the driveway, but that turned out to be a non-issue (think San Francisco, but for only 20 meters), so anyone with the slightest amount of driving skills shouldn't have a problem. Lastly, the windward side of O'ahu is the perfect location; great weather, great beaches, easy access to the North Shore, good restaurants, and best of all it is away from the craziness of Honolulu, but just minutes away at the same time. Mahalo nui loa Connie and Dean, my wife and I really enjoyed our stay! A Hui Hou.

Perfect studio with great view in beautiful part of Oahu! Connie is very friendly, everything was well prepared, great communication!

Unit had all we needed. Beautiful view over the bay. Our host Connie was very helpful and gave us good travel tips.

Enjoyable Studio with amazing views on a hillside overlooking the Bay. Kailua's wonderful beaches nearby.

Connie was a perfect hostess. She was forthcoming with valuable information on dining, sites of interest and activities. Connie was available and also respected our privacy. We are looking forward to returning. The location and studio apartment meet all our expectations.

Connie's bay view studio was awesome!! It was cutely decorated, had the space and everything we needed, the view was beautiful, and the location was perfect. The location was in a beautiful, convenient, safe and upscale area. Even the locals that we chose one of the better locations on the island. . Connie was so helpful and welcoming.

Connie's place was very beautiful, clean and wonderfully quiet and peaceful! I will definitely be back. The view and sounds of birds in the trees made for a perfect respite. Parking was easy on the street and manageable up her steep driveway. She had all the amenities you could ask for and was quite communicative in helpful ways. I highly recommend her place!

Connie was very warm and welcoming. She checked on us regularly to make sure our stay was comfortable. A few days it rained so we stayed in and enjoyed the view (still a great view even it's raining) and BBQed. It was very relaxing and pleasant. The location was just perfect, close enough for the activités and beach in Kailua, but just enough away to feel secluded. I would definitely stay here again for my next visit!in the area.

Derek's place was great. We enjoyed staying in Kaneohe, which was almost equidistant from Honolulu proper, and the North Shore. We never met Derek, but he set everything up for us, and accommodated all of our needs.

I wasn't able to make it due to a family emergency very last minute and Derek was kind enough to refund me for half of my stay.

Derek's studio was perfect for what we needed. It was clean, convenient, beautiful drive in the morning. Great water pressure in the shower and Derek had shampoo, conditioner and shower gel available (the good brands, too). While we didn't get to meet, he was friendly, responsive and I'd recommend his studio to anybody. This was a last minute booking for us and we hit the jackpot.

Derek's place is on a quiet little court in the local area of Kaneohe. He lives with his parents Derek and Laura in the main house, and the Airbnb unit is a cute little downstairs studio with a full kitchen and even a washer and dryer. This was very much like staying with family since we we're lucky enough to be invited up for a few drinks and had a great time getting to know the family. They love to host people, but they also give a lot of space and privacy if needed. Since they live upstairs, feel free to ask them to borrow anything, but the studio is already very well equipped with cooking gear and stuff for the beach. We didn't spend too much time exploring Kaneohe, but Derek can suggest many hiking spots and secret beaches, so don't be shy! :)

Met up with Derek upon arrival who showed us where we would be staying and kept everything short and sweet. The house has everything you will need for your stay but it's only a short walk to the nearest store. The location for us was perfect as it's tucked away from the hustle and bustle of downtown yet a very short drive to the highway which loops the entire island. If you're looking for a quiet nice place to stay around a ton of Oahu's hidden adventures this is the place to stay.

Derek's place is great. It looks exactly like in the pictures. And everything is comfy. The bed is soft but yet supportive at the same time. The lazy-boy sofa is so good that i don't want to get up at all!!! The shower is hotel-like: good water pressure, hot, and adjustable. Anyway, i had a great time at Derek's place. You can see that the host tries to make his guests feel like home.

The perfect host and the perfect quiet place to get away from the hustle of Waikiki. Apartment was clean and tidy and everything we needed.

This was my first AIRBNB experience. Derek was really nice during our stay there. The room has good space for a couple, nice kitchen and bathroom. The location is good too, quiet, safe, there's a supermarket near, nice beaches around. I do indicate Derek's house for those planning go to Oahu. Aloha!
