The Makaha Towers was an excellent choice for my girlfriend and I. We travel quite a bit and this was our first time using vrbo and it turned out to be an excellent decision. The condos are in a gated lot that literally sit by themselves basically where the H1 (which turns into Farrington hwy) ends on the north east side of the island. It's very quiet and perfect for those wanting to relax and enjoy Hawaii without all the hustle and bustle. The only shortcoming, if you can even call it that, is that it is quite a ways away from the city and a lot of the attractions. The way Oahu is set up, there aren't very many connecting roads so it takes forever to get just about anywhere. To be honest, the location only added a little bit of time as even if you were staying downtown, whatever mileage you make up is negated by the traffic. So basically just know that whenever you stay on oahu, you're going to need a car if you want to see much of the island outside your rental. The Makaha condos, as we realized towards the end of our stay, actually had a very nice beach within a mile or so. Check it out when you stay at the beginning and you may not find yourself driving all over to find lanikai and other cool beaches. Our overall impression of this rental is that it was fantastic and I would recommend it to absolutely anyone. It's clean, everything in the condo was new and updated, the scenery is beautiful, and it has a great price that allows you to indulge a little more while touring oahu. A big thanks to the owner for all of his help and fantastic communication. He is literally available any time which is an invaluable asset on your first vrbo experience.
