The room was comfortable although dated. The snacks and goodies left by our host were amazing. Parking was a challenge but due to the fact our rental agency messed up and gave us a huge SUV. The carport available for guests fits 2 cars comfortably. Walk to beach reasonably close and was beautiful. Host was friendly and responsive.

The location was perfect; especially if the busy downtown Waikiki vibe is not your thing. Quiet, private and in a neighborhood.
A/C did not dehumidify room very well. Instructions received by email were helpful.Beach access wasn't relevant since weather wasn't very good during our stay. Room could use shades on some of windows to block out light and provide privacy from landscape workers.
Great accommodations with a beautiful location just a short walk to the beach. Our host, Janice, was wonderful in every way. She gave us restaurant and sightseeing reservations and was great. We will stay here again on our next trip to Oahu.
The room itself is traditional in style. Was clean. We enjoyed sitting outside. Our host is very responsive. Max 10 minute walk to beautiful Lanikai beach. Bus 167 convenient to go to town and back.
It had a great location close to beach. It was on a quiet street. Host was very gracious with the treats and breakfasts provided. It was nice, like staying at grandma’s house. Older decor, but clean and comfortable.

Bathroom and kitchen could have been a bit cleaner upon check in. With a week long stay, a refresh of towels and linens would have been nice. Parking, check in, amenities and location were top notch.
All the i's were dotted, and all the t's crossed. I have never encountered a rental as well provisioned as mine at Hidden Hideaway. Janice, the host, has thought of everything, including appointments like a cedar lined closet.
We loved staying there. Everything that you could imagine was available and many extras were included. Janice was always available and accomodating. The beach is farther away than we expected, although if you got out early, there was plenty of parking for beautiful beaches.
A great stay, beautiful location and reasonable price. It was quiet and private. The owner was very responsive to a request for more pillows. The decor is alittle dated but not in a distracting way. All in all, a great place to stay!
The owner puts a lot of thought and effort into all the little special things that make a stay special. Local fruits, snacks, baked goods make for a nice extra touch. Great location.
This place is so cute and quiet. After a long day playing tourist it was so nice to come back to this clean, quiet studio. The extra touches were great. Waking up to the birds every morning was so special. I love this place.
A short walk to amazing sunrises every morning followed by hours of sunshine and walks in calm clear water along the shoreline taking in the breathtaking scenery with nearly not a soul in sight.
Great place to stay. Loved the location, the easy check-in, the snacks, and the cool landscaping! The only thing that wasn’t completely ideal was the parking situation some nights
Quiet property, well appointed room with snacks and breakfast items. Extras for beach or picnics or hiking like beach chairs and small cooler. Easy walk to beach access. Easy checkin/checkout. Read the host instructions about parking!
The location in a neighborhood was great. It was quiet and peaceful.It’s an older place, dated but with a lot of nice attention to detail. One beach was just a walk away, and the other a 10 minute drive. Both were not crowded.We liked that restaurants and shops weren’t too far away in Kailua, since there was only a microwave at the VRBO.It was 30-60 minutes to go into Honolulu, depending on traffic.
