We had a great time at Hale Sweet Hale. The house was perfect for us. Lori was super helpful and friendly.
The boys got up every morning and ran around the big yard.
Walking distance to the 2 best beaches on Oahu. Lanikai beach was just across the street and down the short path. Kailua Beach was 10 minutes walk along the road. They had beach towels, boogie boards and sand toys to take to the beach.
Lot's of room in the house, a king bed, a queen bed, a bunk bed and a single. One bathroom was sometimes tough with a teenage girl but we managed. WIFI was used daily. Anything you needed in the kitchen IF you wanted to cook!
Breeze through the house and the ceiling fan in the bedroom helped keep it cool at night, didn't need air conditioning. A little more noise than I am used to but it is pretty quiet in Wyoming!
Washer/dryer didn't seem to dry very well. A clothes line would be awesome for hanging wet, sandy towels outside.
Walked to Buzz's for a very memorable and delicious meal.
Farmer's market in Kailua on Thursday nights was a great spot to stop and get bread, fruit and vegetables and hot meals.
Surprised how few bugs were around, maybe just the season? We went at Christmas and New Years 2011-2012.
Obama's entourage did not affect us at all.
I would recommend this home for families for sure!

The location was outstanding and the owner wonderful and very generous. The concerns were primarily that the 3rd bedroom did not have a door and being right off the kitchen the noise often work up the kids (even though we tried to be very quiet.) Also, the fan in the middle room was not in working order for the first 2 night and the owner fixed it immediately. The fan in the front bedroom had a clicking noise that would wake us up in the morning. Would love to return but probably not with babies as the noise from the TV and weekend workers in back apartment kept the babies awake. Mahalo, Peggy

The location was great. It was less than a 5 mins walk to the most beautiful beach in Oahu (in my opinion)! It was a fantastic location for a low-key vacation and away from all the hustle of Honolulu/Waikiki area. My dad fished at the shore, my nephew swam at the beach, and my husband and I layed out everyday. It was about a 30 mins drive to Waikiki and the touristy area. The house itself was quaint. It was hard at times with 6 people and 1 bathroom. The kitchen was somewhat spacious with 2 dining room tables. There are 2 small TV's in the house - but, when you're in Hawaii, do you really want to spend time watching TV? :) There's a hike in Lanikai, the Pill Box, great hike with great views. We ate at Zippy's a couple times.. it's convenient, yummy, and cheap.
