We arrived here from a grey, cold summer at home in the UK to a wonderful, beautiful sunny month in Hawaii!!! It felt like a dream, and we don't want to go home. Thank you for the wonderful house and all the extras. We have really felt at home. Just hope we can come again next year! Many Thanks from K and D and gang.

When we entered the home we were blown away....But when my husband and I entered our secret sanctuary,I thanked God! Our private apartment was just what the STAR ordered a lovely place-in fact I deamed my apt. the best place to wake up ever! The curtains flow in slow motion, the Palm leaves blowing are so soothing and the views from the bed are a continued dream. No detail was missing. and we made friends with the pool man who gave us a native day out. 2 things you must do while you are here: 1. go North and stop at Giovanni's Shrimp Truck and order the Spicy Shrimp. 2. jump off the cliff at Waimea Bay...after your shrimp lunch of course. If we ever return we'll stay at the STAR no doubt. Paradise did not disappoint. The T Family of 9.

We had a truly amazing and relaxing stay here. Thank you for anticipating our every possible need. This house does have everything (pool/beach toys, lots of towels, even band-aids!) We couldn't have asked for more. We have many fond memories of our time here: the kids playing in the pool and catching geckso in the yard..cooking together and enjoying one another's company...spotting a giant sea turtle on our ride in the sea kayaks... We have stayed at other beach houses but I think our search is over. We will be coming back here as often as we can. Thank you for sharing this wonderful piece of paradise.

From House Guestbook: We loved the house! Our entire Hawaii Vacation (our 1st) was perfect, and our stay here was a big part. In addition to having a great location on the best beach on Ohau, other things that we really enjoyed were: 1. the beautiful pool, hot tub, grill, the whole backyard 2. the lovely gardens with the many flowers, trees, birds that the kids from Ohio would otherwise never see 3. All the "Little Things" that you provided towels, dishwasher stuff, baggies, coffee, fruit basket, boogie boards, beach chairs and I could go on! Thank you so much and we hope to be back!
