Home away from home, we lived here for 6 weeks. Had everything one would need. Comfortable beds/linens, nice quality everything. Central for exploring the south and east side of Oahu. And we could easily get to other parts of the island. Hosts were super responsive and offered help with our stay. And the view is truly breathtaking!
Loved this property and owners. Great location, exceptionally stocked and spotless. Owners were wonderful.

If you are looking for a clean, comfortable place to stay outside of the bustle of Waikiki, this is it. The guest house is located 5 minutes from stores and dining, and the location makes for a great home base for exploring the island. Claudia and Kevin were wonderful hosts and I wouldn't hesitate to stay with them again!
Claudia is a great hostess. The place was very clean and comfortable for our family. The location was very convenient for exploring all of Oahu. Would love to stay again!
The house is beautiful and it is located in a safe and quiet neighborhood. It is close to a lot of activities. The landlord was easy to communicate with. We had a great time staying here.
Claudia is a great host. This place is in a nice and safe neighborhood. The view is breathtaking. It is in a perfect location, close to stores and beautiful beaches.
A relaxing quiet, clean place to stay. Close to great food and we were able to see many more sites than we had thought. The Island is beautiful. Claudia and Kevin gave great suggestions and directions. They were so helpful to us. We enjoyed our stay and would love to come back!
Cheerful, private, clean and nicely-furnished apartment. Hosts are friendly and accommodating. Apartment is located on a ridge, and overlooks Koko Crater, the ocean, and the neighborhood of Hawaii Kai. Excellent and convenient dining and shopping nearby, but you definitely do need a car.
Check in was smooth, house was immaculate, view was spectacular and proximity to attractions, was perfect. We really enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning soon. We'll definitely be reaching out again next time we come back into town.
The property was very clean, comfortable and had a beautiful view of Hawaii Kai! The hosts were very kind and extremely conscientious. The neighborhood was very safe and shopping and restaurants were nearby. It was everything we had hoped for!
The location is perfect. Easy to access. Not too far from the airport, Waikiki, beaches, stores or other places of interest but yet in a remote, safe and quiet neighborhood. The view is absolutely stunning. The apartment is well-kept, clean, and equipped with all the essentials. Claudia and Kevin were fantastic hosts.
This property was perfect for our stay. It had everything we needed and more. Close to nice shops and restaurants. Claudia was very helpful and very knowledgeable of the island. She gave us tips and helped us with everything we needed. Definitely will stay here on our next trip to Oahu!
The property is great, it's minutes from anything you need, has a fantastic view, and has everything you need to enjoy your Hawaii getaway! Claudia is very helpful and very knowledgeable about the island. Would absolutely recommend!
This vacation rental had most things a renter could want.
It was very clean and well kept.
Claudia was an excellent host.
Onsite laundry was very useful.
Great neighborhood - very few rentals there.
This is a great place well away from the crowds and traffic of Waikiki. We used it as a base to explore the island and it was perfect. The stores are only 5 minutes drive away, and there is easy access to the coastal roads. The apartment is well equipped and very comfortable. A separate entrance ensures privacy and we certainly would consider going back if we return to Oahu.
Immaculately clean, private, well-supplied, and comfortable rental with incredible views and in a peaceful, convenient location. You will need a rental car to get around the island if you stay here. We could not have asked for a better "home-base" while visiting the beuatiful island of Oahu. Communication was fast and accurate. Claudia is truly delightful and attentive. She made great recommendations on places to eat. Cannot recommend highly enough!
The location, view, amenities, Claudia, and cleanliness of the space made this stay perfect! No complaints at all. I usually feel the need to wipe things down or clean a little as soon as we get to a rental, but not here, this was so clean and I felt completely comfortable!

About the host
Hosted by Claudia
Aloha, We are a family of three who loves our home and living in Hawaii. We have lived in Honolulu for over 40 years. The weather, the ocean, the sites, the incredible beaches, the flowers, the hula, the music, the fragrant breezes... and the wonderful people. Have I mentioned we love Hawaii? We know you'll love it here too.
Why they chose this property
We chose to buy property in Hawaii Kai because it is beautiful, fun, safe, convenient, and affluent but with an overall casual and comfortable vibe. We are close enough to downtown Honolulu and Waikiki, but far enough that we always feel we are on vacation. We have everything we need just five minutes away: restaurants, movie theaters, grocery stores, shops, hikes, and some of the most beautiful beaches of the island! We chose this particular property up on the ridge because of the gorgeous views, the spaciousness, the light, and the privacy. After living in the main house for 15 years, we decided to have the guest house built for visiting family and friends.
What makes this property unique
What a gorgeous place! Our guest house is private, quiet and peaceful. Ocean breezes keep you cool and comfortable. The fantastic view will remind you how lucky you are to be vacationing in Hawaii.
