Highly recommend!

Our stay at Gabe‘s home was perfect! The views from every room were amazing. There was plenty of room for seven adults to enjoy our time together and still have space to get away. The pool and hot tub were a great way to relax in the afternoon between sightseeing trips. Easy walk to a beach where we could snorkel, view the turtles and eat shaved ice!Gabe was very quick to respond to any questions we had.Beautiful home and location. Would definitely stay there again.

We LOVED this property and would stay again in a heartbeat. We were surprised to check in and find out that they’d put a beautiful pool in sometime after we’d make the booking. Bonus! The location was ideal- a short walk to the beach- and the house itself met every expectation in terms of size and cleanliness. Gabe was super responsive to some last minute requests and communication was top notch. We will definitely be back!

3 generation vacation

This lovely home worked beautifully for our three family, three-generation vacation. The location is ideal, an easy walk to Brennecke’s beach area where there was great boogie boarding, wading, plus a chance to see sea turtles and Hawaiian monk seals, both threatened or vulnerable species.

Great stay

We were able to make last minute reservations after another reservation had issues. The house was as advertised, although the fourth bedroom is in the house but have to go outside to get in. Clean, spacious, easy to check in and check out. Surf boards, chairs, boogie boards were a nice plus. Everyone was very happy with our stay.
