パラダイスの海の眺め

Glad you enjoyed your stay 😊

It was an honor and pleasure to have you as a guest knowing you participated and completed Ironman! Much respect to all those who complete such a demanding competition as it requires such discipline that I admire. I am glad you were comfortable in the unit.

Glad you enjoyed our island and mahalo for booking a spot for me to join you and your family for the night time snorkel with the Mantas….amazing creatures! My animals totally enjoyed your visit as well. Safe travels home and a hui hou!

Although your stay with me was so short I am glad to have been some help in the suggestion department. Your visit went by quick but glad to hear you were continuing your adventures around our island. Mahalo.

Glad you enjoyed your stay and hope you return again! A hui hou!

Glad you both enjoyed your stay and our waters. It was a pleasure meeting you both. Hope you return to enjoy our huge island more!

It was a pleasure having you! A hui hou! 🤙🏽

It was a pleasure meeting you both. Wish weather and high surfs hadn’t been so difficult this year. Very unusual but seems you both were able to make the best of it!

Great having you hear and glad you enjoyed your stay!

Glad you enjoyed the island and yes....so much more to see. Apologies for the tub. Looks like you may have had a problem. I had a plumber handle it today. Hopefully next time the unit really will be more perfect...lol. It was a pleasure meeting you both. Never got your picture with my feathered fiend either...🙂 A hui hou! 🤙🏽🏝

Is there something I could have done to make your stay better as I see you have given me only one star? I thought I addressed any and all needs as I even ordered, in advance, the two games you requested and inquired about prior to your arrival. Please let me know what more I could do.

It was a pleasure to meet you both and even funnier to learn I know your DIL. Glad you will be a regular on island and will see you around!

Your parents were a pleasure to have! I enjoyed our conversations and glad they got their pics with my bird. Even more glad they helped eat my papaya and the white pineapple since I had way too much of!

Woman...you were amazing to have as a guest!!! Total admiration for your commitment in particpating as an athlete and completing Ironman!!!! I enjoyed knowing I could be an iota of a speck in this feat and accomplishment that you have conquered and endured. I was glad to be able to capture the screen shot of you coming through the finish line. Mahalo for your review and I welcome you and your husband's return any time!

Mahalo for such a sweet review. I enjoyed having you visit and always enjoy showing my favorite areas. I look forward to your return! A hui hou!

It was great having you both! Look forward to future visits since there is so much more of the island to see and experience. Thank you for tolerating the little idiosyncrasies of the household and critters and glad you went home with many great memories.

Enjoyed having you here and my animals enjoyed your attention....even the annoying bird...lol. Mahalo for the flowers and safe travels. No doubt your fur baby will your return!

It was such an honor to have you both. I was more than happy to share “my” turtles (smile). Thank you both very much for joining us in Oahu. You folks were the highlight of the evening.

If you GOOGLE the location, clearly the unit is at most 1.9 miles from the ocean NOT 50 minutes. It was also actually 5 a.m. which is my normal routine to open my side garage pet door …and not 4 a.m. when I AGAIN (several times throughout your stay) had remind you to NOT sit inches from the front sliding screen door (that was continuously left open for not just seconds to grab something but the entire time you either left or sat outside letting insects into the unit for future guests to deal with). This clearly states it is a NO SMOKING property. You absolutely refused to use areas AWAY from the building. I even brought you into my garage to show you that your smoke was entering through my garage window and now also into my house. Fortunate for you this site does not allow me to post photos supporting the facts to show others that my concerns were not unreasonable and the messes you made. I NEVER once entered the unit during your entire stay since or “yelled” at you. I poked my head in once (on the day of your arrival) but never fully entered as I was trying to see if you had arrived yet (as your daughter arrived days earlier). You not only rearranged my furniture in the unit but also outside and actually blocked a door leading into the unit (fire hazard). I also have pictures to provide as proof that you and your family moved the outdoor furniture directly within inches of the entrance to unit as you continuously smoked and rather than move one other chair over to use and sit on you instead moved a table over and put a cushion on it to sit on.. The unit has been listed as NON SMOKING. I even provided an acceptable smoking area you refused to use, and yes, I found an ashtray for you to use as I didn’t want ashes or cigarette butts tossed onto the ground. When you checked out, all I asked was for you to bring your used towels and bedding down and toss any food AND to please return and move the outside and inside furniture back to its ORIGINAL location. I am not sure why you thought you were entitled to rearrange and remodel both outside and inside. You obviously feel your payment for the unit should include me scrubbing it down BEFORE and AFTER you arrive and check out along with your entitlement and ability to remodel as you deem fit. Which wouldn’t be an issue except when it requires me to put in an additional hour or two of cleaning and labor to make it presentable and useable for the next guests. It also clearly states to provide me with your used bath towels every 2 or 3 days on this site and that I would gladly launder for you. Not once was that done and again I never entered your unit even though they needed to be done. The dust you are referring to does NOT exist by the bed or even under the bed. Had you used an actual “white glove” you certainly would not have been able to validate this accusation. The unit, bed, flooring, furniture, handles etc is throughly disinfected and washed after each guest. Not sure what you thought you may have seen however I did find your Q tip, plastic water bottle and misc trash also found under the bed upon your check out. I also have pictures of the beer bottle box and candy container (of which I gave you and your family among other items as complimentary) that was tossed on the ground in my outside shower area of which I also used. Your trash laid there for days. Pictures were not edited to show ocean any closer than reality. When you say you cannot walk back from the ocean you failed to mention that it was because it was all uphill for the return and difficult for your elderly mother. It is not impossible but definitely not easy if one is not in great physical shape and/or tires easily. I felt sorry that you and your family walked and UBER’d and chose not to obtain a rental vehicle. I actually volunteered and did drive you to and from ventures/excursions. I agree though that unit is NOT best suited for 3 people unless they don’t mind small area which is ALSO mentioned in the listing. Also agree that this unit is definitely NOT for smokers (or people who have absolutely no respect for one’s property or rules which were provided to you IN WRITING upon your check in). I almost returned your last nights fee and asked you to leave when you refused to stop smoking within inches of the entrance and side of my house after SEVERAL requests (rather than to walk a few feet out to either the street or even the nice reasonable space provided for lounging and acceptable to smoke at as a compromise). Not sure why you mentioned about my animals as that is also clearly mentioned in the listing. I find it odd that they are such an issue in your review when you took many pics with them. You even showed me one with you sitting with my dog and also had me take pics with you/your family with my bird. I certainly hope the rest of your rentals are able to meet your expectations better than mine did. I apologize as this was obviously NOT a good fit for either of us. Also, not once did I ever YELL at you. You obviously do not respond to polite requests well and feel you can do as you please which was evident when you also disrespected the official that asked you to move and told you that you were too close to the turtles (that I also drove you and your family too).

Mahalo for your kind review. You were both an absolute pleasure to have. Beauty of having guests and being on site is making new friends. You were both receptive to suggestions, enjoyed my animals and so easy to talk with. Safe to say I have made new friends. I enjoyed meeting and having your family over too. All of you were a pleasure and I look forward to your return!

Loved having you both. Welcome to our island. Hope you enjoy your new surroundings!🤙🏽

Absolutely enjoyed having you here. Look forward to your return! I’ll find more trails for you to try…🙂

It was nice meeting you both and having you both. I look forward to your return visit. Thank you for the cups!

You were a pleasure to have since you were gone working so much! Come back and take time to enjoy the island next time. If you must work so much, know you are welcome to stay here anytime! A hui hou.

I am so glad you enjoyed your stay and look forward to a return visit!
