Everything was great!

Our treehouse stay will be unforgettable!! Kristie clearly cares about her guests experience and all the special details really add up. It's a magical magical place, and you will be so so so thankful you decided to stay here. Such a dream.

I cannot wait to go back! From start to finish, the experience was an adventure.

We had a simply perfect 3 nights at the treehouse as part of our honeymoon in Hawaii. It was impossibly romantic and just so relaxing and felt really special. Climbing the ladder to our little oasis each night after sightseeing was so fun! We had a little glitch with the hit water and Kristie got it sorted immediately, such an attentive host. We'd recommend it to anyone heading to the Big Island, you won't regret it!

It is really great place to get away from the fast pace of life. The host is considerate and send us the guide book ahead of time. There is free bottles of water, nuts and brownie in the room. In the morning, you will wake up with birds singing around. At night, you could easily fall asleep in quiet environment. It will be a unforgettable experience.

What an adventure! Staying at Kristie's treehouse was just magical - a perfect day visiting the volcano and then back to our little piece of heaven. The care and details made the stay very comfortable - We spent the evening reading, playing games, and drinking wine. Highly recommend!

Great place to relax and unwind she did a very nice job with the decorations and furnishings being a Gearhead I like the way she had her Plumbing setup and electrical was impressive

Even though our stay lined up with some bad weather the treehouse was perfect! The pictures do not do this place justice. Everything from the swing below to the walk around lanai was so relaxing and picturesque. I will definitely be staying here again next time I'm on the Big Island.

I'm not even certain how I can describe how incredible Eve and the Gingerbread house were! First the house/property are in a perfect location on the island if you are there to explore and be away from all of the tourists! It is so very peaceful, yet a close drive to stores, restaurants, beaches, mountains, and the airport. The Gingerbread is such a beautiful little gem...the smell of cedar and the sound of birds greeted us everyday and simply helped us ease into the right mind set for a wonderful vacation! The property is lovely. Complete with fruit trees, flowers an incredible labyrinth. The only problem we had with it was getting enough motivation to leave that wonderful place in the mornings to go explore the island! Eve was wonderful as well! She made us feel so welcomed and was very helpful with all of our inquiries. All in all an incredible place run by wonderful people!

What a beautiful cottage to have as home base to explore all the amazing treasures around you. My first night it rained and was so peaceful to listen to the stream and feel the cool night air. Driving through the valley, rainbows galore! What a truly special place with lovely energy! Will definitely go back!

Eve was away so unfortunately we didn't meet her, however Steve her husband welcomed us and told us all about the house and the gardens. It was all that we expected a charming cosy house well equipped and very comfortable. As the house is totally made from Cedar wood the smell inside was fantastic always fresh and calming. The house is close to Paia and the lovely beaches - 10-15 minute drive, all of which are on the Hana highway so easy access to the airport at Kahului and 'The road to Hana I would definitely recommend staying here if you want quiet country style accommodation with easy access to everything else.

My fiancée and I had an amazing time staying at The Gingerbread House. The cottage was immaculately clean, well stocked, and had a calming cedar smell that put is at ease after a long, tiring flight. Eve left us a binder of places to eat, local beaches, and hikes with driving directions which was helpful when planning our day. Eve was very responsive to our text messages prior to our arrival and also during our stay; she also arranged a snorkeling to Molokini Crater which was fantastic! The grounds in the Sacred Garden are beautiful! We explored the property and sampled some of the fruit, yum! If you're looking for a secluded, remote location, away from the hustle and bustle of high traffic tourist areas, I highly recommend staying at the Gingerbread House.

We rented the Gingerbread House for five nights during our stay in Maui. The cottage is charming and Eve welcomed us warmly right away. The space had a variety of great conveniences (big fridge, microwave, coffee maker with yummy coffee provided.) The house was clean and well decorated. For a couple the bed was a good size, but not super supportive (if you need a firmer bed). Unfortunately, the week we were in Maui there was an excessive amount of rain resulting in a lot of mud on the property and a sort of constant dampness in the older cottage. The major problem was a lack of internet connection. There is a LINKSYS router in the cottage but it never had a reliable connection to the internet. I was able to load no more than a couple webpages at random in total. Troubleshooting/restarting the router didn't help. This was a pretty significant bummer when trying to plan your day before leaving the house since we also didn't have any cell coverage (AT&T iPhone 7s). According to some previous reviews this is a persistent problem. You could find it on certain parts of the property, but rain & mud made that a bit tricky/inconvenient. Of course, we know no one can control the weather, but if we’re being honest, it put a damper on our stay here, leaving us with a fairly neutral experience. That being said, Eve herself was a lovely host offering tips, helping deliver a package we had to have sent to the house and allowing us to do laundry. If you’re looking to really “get away from it all” the Gingerbread House is a great spot for you and it is conveniently located to the airport, Road to Hana, Paia, Upcountry and even the Wailea area.

The highlight of our stay. Beautiful and cozy wee house, all the comforts we required, gorgeous peaceful jungly yard with wonderful strolling areas and a burbling creek. Friendly-neighbour chickens to share our afternoon lounging. Wholly secluded, yet only a short drive to central/north coast centres. If we return to Maui, timing will depend on being able to stay here again.

Great location for exploring Maui's upcountry. Beautiful grounds with fruit trees, creek, nursery/garden and a labyrinth! Bed was extra soft and comfortable. Large bathroom. Great lighting and lots of windows.

Beautiful is not what makes this place special. Sure, it’s gorgeous, but gorgeous is what Maui is supposed to be about. For my Jennie and me, the thing that made this gingerbread house so memorable was the way we transformed between arrival and departure. We came preoccupied and left at peace. Much of this can be attributed to the little gingerbread house itself (for which you will find reviews aplenty herein), but the true difference was Eve and her little labyrinth. We came and experienced the unexpected and departed more than we were. I can’t promise the same for you, but I can, and do hope.

I loved staying at the treehouse! It was my favorite AirBNB spot so far. The property is beautiful, so lush and peaceful. I really liked the tiny geckos on the steps up to the treehouse; they're super cute! Sunset beach is perfect. I drove all around Oahu for one whole day checking out other beaches and I didn't find one that I liked more than Sunset. I recommend the Coffee Gallery in Haleiwa, I went there every morning for iced coffee and the most delicious baked goods (they had vegan options, perfect for me, but everything else looked really good too). The Beet Box Cafe in the back of Celestial Foods in Haleiwa was really tasty (vegetarian/vegan). They also have a food truck only about a mile from the treehouse. The treehouse itself was well stocked with kitchen stuff and basically everything I needed for a comfortable stay. In regards to the previous review about pests, I saw some bugs but nothing that seemed unreasonable for being out in the jungle. There were a few mosquitos inside but I only got one bite in four days. I didn't spend a lot of time outside on the deck at night though, so I'm not sure how bad they are out there. I didn't notice any ants up in the loft. I did see two huge cockroaches, but they ran away and hid when they saw me and it wasn't a big deal to me. I had an awesome time at the treehouse and I would definitely stay there again if I ever return to Oahu.

The Treehouse was great. The view is amazing and the sounds of the ocean were wonderful. Nice short walk to the beach. Everything was clean and comfortable. One note, there is no TV in the bungalow. After long days of physical activity, it would have been nice to have a TV to watch. Fortunately, there was wifi, so we were able to watch shows on our tablet. Overall, I'm glad we stayed here. I would highly recommend it.

Had a great time living in the tress! A truly unique experience next to all the action the North Shore has to offer.

Wir hatten diese Unterkunft spontan für eine Nacht gebucht, da wir den Trubel in Waikiki satt hatten. Die Lage ist ein wahrer Traum, unbeschreiblich! Auch das Baumhaus so mitten im Dschungel fand ich der Hit. Es ist sehr ruhig hier oben, man hört nur die Geräusche des Dschungels. Es ist exakt so wie auf den Bildern zu sehen. Wir waren zu zweit, was super war. Zu 4 würde ich etwas Platzprobleme sehen, vor allem mit dem Gepäck. Zu schweres Gepäck sollte man vielleicht sowieso nicht mitnehmen, es geht doch einige Treppen steil hinauf. Mit dem Fahrrad erreichten wir gut die schönen Strände wo wir den Surfern zugeschaut haben. Auch ein Foodmarkt war mit dem Rad zu erreichen. Restaurants hat es aber nicht wirklich in der Umgebung (oder wir haben nichts gesehen). Alles in allem war alles super. Den einzigen Minuspunkt muss ich dem Preis geben.

The view from the treehouse was really lovely. I had everything I needed, the kitchen is nice. I slept on the sofa downstairs and I slept very, very well!

Amazing experience!! We cannot wait to return. Beautiful doesn't even do it justice. The fresh produce from the garden is unreal, thank you for creating such a wonderful space!!

The treehouse bungalow was the perfect, unique and quiet retreat for us. Beautiful surroundings and an amazing view. Loved having access to bikes, paddle boards, and surf boards. Everyone was really friendly and helpful- giving us great advice on a beautiful hike to do. We'd love to return.

This location is trully one of a kind. Situated on the hill minutes away from the beach and with the most incredible views you could think of. It could have easily been featured in a magazine stated: most romantic and special places to sleep. We loved it up there. John is really helpfull and gave us some good tips wich led us to spend the day on a deserted beach surround with turtles! We would highly recommed this place and try to stay as long as possible!

“A great place to visit, a great place to live.” This is how my lady described this lovely studio apartment in the historic Ilikai highrise hotel / condo plex, and I totally agree. This particular unit has a fun little 50s bachelor pad vibe that is stylish and clean, with a wonderful 120 sq ft balcony that overlooks the mountain side of Waikiki. Also includes a kitchen well-stocked with gear – we chose to visit the local Japanese grocery stores and stocked up so we could make our own breakfasts, eating them on the lovely balcony every morning – which was quite romantic. If I lived here, I would be on that balcony every day. This apartment is right on the west side of Waikiki, where the beach officially starts - you’re 90 seconds from the beach. So many other hotels and bars and landmarks are within easy walking distance, including the Hilton Village next door. We also went all over the island in our rental car, so this was a perfect for a home base location. However, this is just to the edge enough that it’s away from any nightly activity: we slept quite well when we were there (even enjoyed waking up each morning so the soft coo of various birds). There’s lots of parking options, running the gamut of the cost spectrum, but do ask Cyrille and Angela for the inside info on free parking located within the three block radius: we were there for 6 days, and I had about an 85% success rate finding the free nearby parking using there list of Best Spots. The onsite restaurant – Cinnamons – has a water-marina view, and was surprisingly good. And don’t forget to check out the pool: it looks modest, but the water was amazing. It’s salt water, pumped in from the beach and treated. No matter what time of day, it was always warm and invigorating (I swam laps there in the morning). Cyrille and Angela were lovely hosts, and even checked in with suggestion about special events that were occurring that week. We will definitely come back again, and are actually looking into other condos for sale in the building!

I wanted a stylish apartment with a balcony and full kitchen on a higher floor in Waikiki for my husband's 1st trip to Hawaii. The Pearl fit the bill perfectly. It is in one of the classic 60's hotels on the marina (the very harbour where the opening theme to Gilligan's Island was shot) next to the Hilton Village complex and Ala Moana Park. I prefer this end of Waikiki as it is easier to get to other parts of Honolulu by foot, bus or taxi. We loved the wall to wall windows and patio doors that opened onto a huge lanai (balcony). Some people might be bothered by the traffic sounds but we really appreciated the views of DeRussy Park, the rainbows that formed over the mountain ridges and the bright city lights at night. Having air conditioning was a nice bonus even in December although the apt is situated on the cool side of the building--the ones on the ocean side were sweltering by late afternoon! Angela was fantastic to deal with from inquiry to checkout. Her system of having a door code instead of a key worked really well. She answered any questions we had instantly. If we come back to Waikiki, the Pearl would be our number one choice! There is nothing comparable for the price.

Central location in Honolulu-we walked everywhere. Very clean and comfortable bed.

Our hosts communications were great and we were provided useful information prior to our trip. You can't beat the location being in easy walking distance of Ala Moana Shopping Centre and all the activity around Waikiki Beach. The apartment is very comfortable, the kitchen is well stocked with equipment for making basic meals and importantly the A/C worked really well!

Our stay at Angela & Cyrille's apartment was great. The apartment was nice and modern and in close proximity to the beach and shops. Angela & Cyrille responded to any of my questions within minutes, thanks guys!

The Pearl is a wonderful apartment, exactly as offered! Beautiful furniture, wonderful kitchen and bathroom, all in very good order! Just a few steps to the wonderful Hilton Lagoon, to the Marina and the Mall. Had a very very good time, Angela & Cyrille have been wonderful hosts, easy to reach, quick in answering.. No complaints at all!! THANK YOU! Will come back!

Angela and Cyrille was great ! We founded a very clean house and bath and full kitchen waiting for us! Close all beach and main street of Waikiki its nice base for your stay in Honolulu. They also provide us info concerning restaurant and shopping around so they provide a really full service for comfortable stay in Honolulu!!

What an amazing apartment! We had an absolutely amazing stay thanks to Angela & Cyrille. Located in an amazing part of Honolulu central to everything and just about every shuttle bus there is stops out the front of the building, perfect for helicopter tours and shopping! We also hired Cyrille's Beetle, super handy and parking close by made it totally worth it. We had a fantastic time and would love to come stay again.

The place is wonderful. It's right above the ocean, and good for family stay. It nears Polynesia Culture Center, Hailewa and Byodo-in Temple, but not downtown area. So if you want a place that is far from all the tourists, this is definitely the place. The only thing is that you can always hear the waves and wind, it's very relaxing but also hard to sleep. The room is very clean and comfortable. I'll recommend this place to people who want to live far away from the city and a taste of a different Honolulu.

The house is beautiful!!! I wish we could live there! Everything accurate from pictures. Amanda greeted us when we arrived and went over any questions we had.

We are a group of 7 pax and we all loved it there!#! Great hosts !

We had a wonderful time in Oahu, and the setting and view of the house on the cliffs overlooking the ocean was phenomenal. We had to drive a few miles north to get to the best beaches, but it wasn't a big deal. We didn't actually use the beach nearby, but Laie Point is beautiful. Amanda was extremely responsive and brought us some extra toys for our 3 kids.

From the time my mom and sister arrived at the house, to the time we checked out Amanda and Geoff were amazing. They made us feel welcome and were always available to recommend places to go or to give directions. They were so sweet and were quick to help with anything in the house. They also made the best Christmas surprise for us, which was a lovely nativity scene made out of items found on the beach. This was without a doubt the trip of a lifetime, that wouldn't have been so amazing if we hadn't staying at this house.

Wonderful place, very nicely renovated, amazing ocean views. Great place to stay!

Amazing place to stay at. You won't find a better place to enjoy the ocean view. We had a great time here. We watched live football match overnight here, made our breakfast, and enjoy the ocean while having our breakfast. The place is very clean. The bed is very comfortable. And it looks so beautiful. And so much are offered in the house. We enjoyed the chocolates and the wine. Thanks for giving us an amazing holiday.

My experience at the Sea Cliff House was perfect! With all the high-quality upgrades, the home felt brand new to us. The views were priceless! The master bedroom feels like an elite room on a cruise ship! Six adults and two small children fit very comfortably here. We watched kite surfers from the back porch and ate dinner with the sea breeze on our backs. Our host was very responsive and helpful with everything we needed and committed to us having a good experience here. The neighborhood is quiet and welcoming. The home is near a number of attractions on Oahu like the Polynesian Cultural Center, the LDS temple (which is beautiful), and one of the best rated zip lines in Hawaii. It's also close to a very secluded beach, which is hard to find on this island. I would definitely recommend this home to anyone looking to visit Oahu!

Dana was accommodating to our schedule and was on time to let us in to the condo and show us around, despite us getting caught up in traffic and being late. She was very nice and understanding, which made the experience less stressful. The studio was nicely furnished and in a great location. Everything was very clean and in working order. The front desk checked people coming in once it got later in the evening, which was an encouraging security-wise. We definitely enjoyed our stay. I'm not sure if I just didn't notice or what (and this is not a complaint), but as an FYI, there's really just a divider between the toilet/shower area and the studio. No actual door. So be comfortable with your partner. ;) Also, there are a lot of windows and the curtain panels, while lovely, were a little sparse, especially with other buildings nearby. One more panel per area would have been nice for privacy's sake.

Danas place was cute and looked just like the pictures. Spent two days for my husbands birthday and had a wonderful time. Was able to reach Dana by text and she even recommended places to eat. Would stay again.

Dana is a perfect host, she welcomed like we knew each other for a long time. The room was exactly like it was described in the listing, love it. The location is right around Waikiki beach and downtown, only a few blocks away from restaurants and shopping. The parking is available inside the building at an extra cost of $20/for every 24 hours

Dona was very friendly and gave clear instructions. Her place is amazing!! It is close to many shops and restaurants. Its next to the canal. The apartment have gym and swimming pool. The apartment itself is very cute and homey. It was a pleasant stay!! Will definitely book this place again! Strongly recommend this place!!

Dana was very helpful with our stay. She was happy to meet at the apartment building at our convenience and show us the room. She got in contact with us prior to our arrival and let us know how to best get to her place. She also gave us advice on what to do and where to go while we were there!

We arrived in Honolulu quite late, but that wasn't a problem for Barb, she welcomed us at the lobby, showed us around, and shared a lot of useful tips. The location is very convenient, the studio is tastefully renovated, everything was clean. We had a great stay!

We can recommend this listing. It is centrally located, just a short walk from Waikiki. The studio is clean and nicely furnished. Reception was very smooth and easy.

This studio was beautiful! Great location, wonderfully decorated, and incredibly comfortable bed! Dana was a super host. Very willing to help while also being sure not to "overstep." It was a wonderful 36 hour layover in Honolulu thanks to this beautiful place!

Oh what a wonderful stay we had. The Bungalow itself is very nice and we especially enjoyed our time in the garden and at the beach (which is just across the Bungalow) Cheri and Scott were very caring hosts and had helpful tipps for our stay in Oahu. Their surprise for us to mark our honeymoon was so thoughtful and made the start of our stay just as more felicitous.

The Secluded Beach Bungalow was everything we'd hoped for after a crazy week in Waikiki! It was cosy, quiet, very close to the beach and gave us the opportunity to shop and cook for ourselves. We loved sitting in our private garden and also in the sitting room. The bungalow was very clean and we were provided with everything we required - the beach items were very appreciated! The hosts - Jenn, Cheri and Michael were present if needed but really stepped back and allowed us our space. Kailua beach is so idyllic! The bungalow is very close to a market and we walked into town on numerous occasions. I highly recommend this accommodation to any couples

Cheri and Scott welcomed us warmly with a basket of goodies (Kona coffee, bananas from the garden, and chocolate bar). The location is perfect and access to the beach is by their back door. The garden is absolutely lush and beautiful. There is absolutely attention to details everywhere by Cheri and Scott.

Cheri, Scott and Jen made our stay fabulous!!! We would definitely stay again! The accommodations were exactly as promised and the proximity to the beach was fabulous!!! Thank you all!

Cheri sent a detailed list of suggestions/links of things to do, great places to eat, and more before we left for our trip. She kept in touch by email and was ready for us as we arrived at our parking spot. She has an obvious love for what she does which is reflected in a bungalow that is well-equipped, super clean, quiet, and full of Hawaiian charm. The beautiful surrounding garden gives the feel of privacy even though you are steps to the beach and a deli/market. Would love to go back!

Our first time visit to Hawaii started off with Cheri and Scott's secluded bungalow. Cheri greeted us and provided everything we needed to make our stay complete. She even provided a few extra treats! We absolutely loved the tropical gardens ... So very beautiful ! The beach access and proximity to local businesses was perfect! The bungalow was very private and secluded ! We also enjoyed all the artistic touches in the decor . Cheri and Scott were very friendly and available if needed. We would highly suggest this air bnb.

I was already sold on the Kailua Beach area, as I had lived right down the street while working on the Island three years ago. When my wife and I were planning a trip back to Oahu, this was the area that we wanted to stay. Cheri and Scott’s place was the perfect fit for us. We were up every morning to watch the amazing sunrises on what we consider to be one of the best beaches in our travels. Prior reviewers have been spot on with their descriptions of the bungalow, and the level of detail and care in the unit and the outside spaces. Besides having such great accommodations in Paradise, the big thing that stood out for us was the hospitality of our hosts. Cheri and Scott were in the middle of a renovation of their own house upstairs when we visited. To have this disruption in your life is time consuming and hectic, to put it mildly, but Cheri and Scott maintained the aloha spirit and always made us feel like having us enjoy our stay was number one on their list of priorities. We loved our time there, and can’t wait to get back for another visit and see their renovated living area!

This is an oasis in the heart of Kailua Beach Park. My wife & I had a blast in this quiet town. We LOVED Kailua beach which is only a few hundred feet from the bungalow. Don't forget to wake up to see the sunrise-- the beach is deserted and the clouds, unforgettable. The bungalow was well equipped and right below where Cheri and Scott live. It has all the beach essentials: cooler, chairs, beach bag and towels, kitchen with pots and pans, small refrigerator, plates, cups etc. (The cooler and towels are especially helpful as we visited the beach at least once a day!) They also give you access to a washer & dryer, onsite parking. The bungalow is perfect for couples as it's the right sq footage for 2, not too big but we didn't stay in much. We recommend you rent a car to see the Island; the north shore, Waikiki etc. The town of Kailua has great restaurants, and shops, plenty of places to shop and only a few minutes away. Whole Foods is there too. Thank you Cheri and Scott for an unforgettable week!

Jay's place has a $1 million ocean view. It stretches so far out that it was the main entertainment rather than watching TV. He has such a cozy place that it was the perfect space. We cooked breakfast in his cute kitchen and ate outside at the patio every morning. Thank you again Jay!

We loved staying at Jay's condo. It is right on the ocean and we could see turtles right from the balcony and easily swim whenever we desired. The decorating was lovely and we were able to cook meals easily in the kitchen. The condo also came with snorkeling and beach equipment which was nice. It was far enough way from the downtown to be relaxing and quiet, but only a short drive away. The place was clean and pest free. We would definitely stay here again.

Brilliant apartment loved everything about it 10/10

You definitely can't get more oceanfront! We really enjoyed our stay at Jay's apartment and couldn't have wished for more. Could you believe it, we saw sea turtles during breakfast on the balcony. Jay was easy to communicate with and prepared everything perfectly for our arrival. The place is spotless clean and fully equipped (especially the kitchen and even beach equipment). Thanks a lot for having us, Jay!

Ocean watching at its best. Sea turtles at our doorstep and whales splashing in the distance all afternoon. It was great.

Jay was an amazing host! He communicated all the steps clearly and accurately. The place was pristine and offered the best oceans views we have ever seen. We highly recommend staying here while in Maui, you won't be disappointed!

This place was amazing! From the view to how the place felt. Jay was super responsive with any questions I had regarding the place and for Maui. We loved staying here. We'd definitely return here for future visits!

Jay kept great communication and made sure the place was in great shape for when we arrived. We had read many stellar reviews which led us to book and I can vouch for all of them, it was simply stunning. Humpback Whales and Green Sea Turtles were constantly in sight from a great patio, and I am considering buying an identical couch. Room cooled very quickly with the provided air conditioner and the allotted parking space was a huge perk given past experiences on the island. I would book this room again in a heartbeat for my next trip.

This was by far the best accommodation we had so far on Oahu. The view is the best you can possibly get. It's clean, spacious and has everything you want. The host was great, super friendly and helpful. We'll definitely come back next year.

Meleana is a very friendly host, and the place is in a wonderful location. The house was cozy, but not very clean. There were a lot of bugs- roaches, mosquitos, etc. This place is OK as long as you have minimal comfort requirements. I would not have minded if the price were lower. For 3 people, we paid $450 a night. For that price, I would have preferred to stay in a resort.

Meleana was a punctual and extremely accommodating host! Everything was exactly as advertised on the listing, it was an amazing place. My Family and I had one of the best family vacations ever staying at Melana's home. I highly recommend anyone wanting to stay on the North Shore of Oahu to stay at this place!

House is really cute and it has got soul) beach very wide, clean and endless. Neighbors are calm. It was one of the best of ours beach vacation! Tanks

Perfect Place, perfect host, hard to leave, definitely going back! Meleana was very responsive and provided additional assistance in finding activities while we were there. The Judd's organic farm across the street has great food for those who like to eat in.

The host canceled this reservation 15 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

The listing was exactly as described. It was very charming and the location is beautiful.

Great communication, beautiful, unique house in an amazing setting. Hard to leave Meleana's beach house! Can't wait to visit again.
