As a former local. Owing home for a couple of weeks, I know Kahala might be a good fit. It was great. Super convenient to hopping on H1 to see my parents. My BF had never been to Hawaii before and he loved the south shore. Scott is great! Very private.

Everything about this place was fantastic. The hosts are so nice and attentive. The place was clean and spacious. The location can’t be beat. Highly recommend.
Quick and excellent communication with the host. Very welcoming and helpful. Extremely clean and comfortable rental. Exactly as pictured and described. Super comfy bed, amazing shower and everything one could possibly need. Fantastic location in a very quiet and charming neighborhood. Our favorite part was the little front area garden with the umbrella table and chairs. We had our coffee and breakfast outside each morning and enjoyed the beautiful flora and fauna in our little oasis. A true delight!
Having been a resident of Honolulu for many years, we were looking for a place to "call home" for our stay. Nothing could have made our time any better. Scott and Tara were wonderful host, and EVERYTHING was thought of to make our honeymoon perfect. Mahalo Scott and Tara! Until next time.
Location is everything. The property is in Honolulu, yet miles from the hustle and bustle - or the noise and traffic - of Waikiki. The spacious room is comfortable and spotless. The front yard area exclusive to the unit has a gas grill in excellent working order. Right of way to a delightful beach is less than a ten minute walk away. Tara and Scott are gracious hosts. Everything was as advertised!
Scott was a great host. The place was located in a quiet neighborhood and very nice and clean. All the amenities if you would like to cook and eat in. A short walk to the beach. Great location Diamond head, the mall and access to H1. Loved sitting on the outside patio to have my morning coffee and read my book.
So many wonderful things to say about the entire experience that I could write a novel. Our host Scott, the studio, the amenities, the local style decor, the location - all of it - top notch. And the large walk-in shower was a surprise plus that we loved. So many thoughtful details, including a drying rack for wet swimwear. A small favorite memory: one afternoon we fell asleep in the comfy chairs just outside the double doors leading to the studio - under the blue sky, sun beaming on our shoulders, with the fragrance of puakenikeni flowers wafting through the air. All we could hear were the mynah birds and tradewinds blowing through the trees. A true gem. Mahalo nui loa, Scott!
We had a great stay at the Kahala attached guesthouse! Scott and Tara where very helpful with everything we needed to make our stay as comfortable and smooth as possible. They even helped with retrieving an article of clothing I had left behind. The location is fantastic with easy access to Waikiki and all of Honolulu plus the nearby freeway entrance to get to other sides of the island. We appreciate our time spent at the Kahala house.
We enjoyed our stay. The room was spacious, clean, and pleasant. Scott was a great host.
