Danny’s place was exactly as advertised. He and Michelle looked after our needs and advised us where to eat and what sights to see. His dog Reef visited us often and he’s super friendly. All said, this place was exactly what we expected. Mahalo Danny and Michelle!

The host and hostess were so lovely, and requests were greeted with helpfulness. The king-size bed was comfortable. The indoor shower wand was quickly hot and easy to adjust the temperature. We could have subsisted with just a Microwave. Though the electric frying pan exponentially increased our ability to prepare more-nourishing meals. This location is great if surfing, swimming and relaxing on the beach is your pleasure. It is near the best hike on the island at Ka'ena Point State Park. We were early to bed and early to rise during our January stay, as it was hot in the afternoon sun even then.

This is a quaint room close to the beach. Danny is a very knowledgeable host of places to go for food and surfing. The air conditioner was on, but room was not cool for a few hours after arrival. My husband and I did not personally feel comfortable staying here the whole time we booked because of the locking/entrance arrangements. Understandably, even after discussing the issues we had with the property, we were not refunded any amount of money. Overall, not a bad place. It may have been a better fit for others, just not for us on our honeymoon.

This is a small, clean, easy accessible studio but really is just set up to be a place to shower & rest. There is no TV so if you're like me & want to watch something to wind down at the end of the day you'll have to use your own phone, iPad, laptop, etc. The host is very kind & friendly & lets you say hi to the dogs if you'd like (which who doesn't love dogs?!). The host let us borrow beach gear & offered surf lessons! My boyfriend took the lessons while I relaxed on the beach & we both enjoyed ourselves a lot! The location is rural, definitely not a tourist part of the island which was a nice change of pace during our stay on Oahu. Overall, it was exactly what we needed just to rest & I would recommend this place to anyone who was looking for something simple.

Danny was a great host. I was looking to surf around the island as an intermediate. He gave me good advice. The suite was exactly what I was looking for. Chill vibe, comfy bed, easy surfboard storage. West side was right up my alley. Met a lot of friendly people here.

Danny is simply wonderful. He was very accommodating and informative. Had I known that was the case, I wouldn’t have spent so much time planning things. His dog, Reef, is there to great you but you never hear him. It’s a quick two block walk to the beach one direction or a 3-4 block walk to a beach in the other direction. Great hikes all around. It’s great if you find a cheap flight to Oahu and don’t want to be anywhere near the city. That being said it is a good 30-40 minute drive to Honolulu. Which for us, was perfect. Danny had a cooler bag for us to use, beach chairs, towels, games, etc. the back patio was the best place to sit and enjoy the evening after showering off the dust and sand from the days hike or beach. Mahalo, Danny!

Perfect for a functional and comfortable base camp, but don’t expect spotlessness or luxury.
Highlights: Danny was a fantastic host, excellent at communication and recommendations. Provided a bunch of free gear for us to use, like snorkeling gear, beach umbrella, beach towel, and beach chairs. Outdoor shower is refreshing, but beware of bugs at night. Room had everything we needed, including hot plate which we used to make breakfast each morning. Comfortable and clean bed. Private patio with great view of large lush backyard and stargazing. Private entrance. AC and fan work great in tandem to keep the room cool. Reef the dog is a highlight. Quiet, local neighborhood. 5-minute walk from stunning beach. Danny hooked us up with well-priced and fun surf lessons.
What could have been better: the room was definitely well-worn (instances of water stains, rust, chipped paint, chipped wood, worn caulking, etc.). Blackout curtains would have been nice to keep out the sun, as well as a stronger curtain rod. Some of the provided kitchen amenities had a layer of dust on them, and the instant coffee was well-expired. Keep in mind this is natural Hawaii; you will likely see bugs in the room.

We found Danny's place to be a great home base for our time in Oahu. Everything was just as stated in the listing. The room was neat and tidy. The A/C worked well the bed was super comfy. The coffee/cooking area and bathroom were well supplied. The shower was great and had plentiful hot water. We also really enjoyed the small deck just for us! The location was great, easy drive to all the things you want to do on Oahu. Danny was a generous, helpful, and very friendly host. He answered messages promptly and had great suggestions and advice for things to do and how to get there. Definitely recommend the Surfers Dream Studio.
