(4 out of 5)
The assistance I received in renting a unit was awesome. Thanks to Sion for recommending the Hau Tree! This was my 4th time back to the island, but the first time for my three friends. They were amazed at how beautiful the North Shore is. Having a private beach right off the house was by far what we enjoyed the most about the Hau Tree. Watching the whales each morning and snorkeling was just great. We couldn't have asked for a better time of year to visit. Three of the four of us are military so the trip to Pearl Harbor was fantastic. This was my 3rd visit to the memorial, but I enjoy and appreciate it more each time. It was nice to have Schofield Barracks close by for groceries and other things we needed. The PCC did not disappoint for a second time and first time for my friends. We met some amazing students who work their. To better understand the Polynesian Culture everyone should visit the PCC. The only recommendation I have is to put wireless access in the unit instead of using Jamie's router. There were days his didn't give us access. We used the computer quite a bit for booking reservations, directions, opening and closing times, etc. Otherwise the visit was great and the Hau Tree has already been put on the list for a repeat visit. However, we want to experience another island so we'll definitely be using your service again.
Mahalo for all your help and making our vacation a great experience for some tired military veterans who needed a vacation!

We loved Hau Tree and would give it a 6 star out of 5 star rating.
The Lanikai Sunrise studio however was less than expected, 2 out of 5 stars. Hit your head on the shelves above the bed, no good eating table, dark and dank.
The beach house had great solitude and relaxation. Only problem is traffic is bad on the week end. Would definitely stay here again and had a great time. Only problem is the oven part of the stove does not work and the beach porch door needs a screen. Everything you need is supplied for wimming and BBQ and that is great.
The Hau Tree was a great cottage for our family to stay to enjoy the North Shore. With Leftovers break right in front and Chuns reef walking distance away we truly enjoyed our family get away with surfing, body boarding and spear fishing everday and anytime! The house was great being right on the sand and the waves put us to sleep every night.
We miss our adorable cottage on the beach. It had everything we needed and was comfortable - especially the queen bed. It had privacy and we felt safe. We enjoyed being among the locals unlike a Hotel experience. We spent a lot of time on the porch watching surfers surf some big waves at "leftovers". Also saw a lot of whales playing, breaching and spouting - wished we had packed our binoculars. The sea turtles basked on the beach - so cool! We all snorkeled in the protected reef area and loved it. Our 8 year was in the water more than out and was the first to point out all his amazing discoveries. We all have wonderful memories of Hau Tree and hope to return next year. Mahalo, Marcy, Andrew, Andy and Alex
This is a very nice rental home and has an excellent beach. the stay was very relaxing, and comfortable, and it had everything right there. I'll never stay in a hotel again.
Very nice, clean, great features, great location! Thanks and we'll be back!
