5 Star Vacation Rental - A must stay!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family had an amazing time at Gigi’s Retreat from hours spent poolside, convenient access to the beach, and the private grass lawn (perfect for throwing a ball around). The house has just the perfect decor and amenities for small to large families. We will be sure to reserve Gigi’s Retreat on our next trip to Oahu. Also, Steven (the property manager) was very hospitable and responsive to any questions during our stay.

Beautiful house! The location was perfect for traveling with young adults/teenagers and my MIL who is 81. Great shops and places to eat close by and the walk across the yard to the beach....amazing! The home is well immaculate and cozy , pool was amazing and the landscaping inspiring. I would not hesitate to stay at this home again when visiting beautiful Oahu. You want to go out and explore (we did!) but you also can't wait to get home again and relax!

Everything about this property was top notch. The yard was beautiful and very big for being right in the beach. The views of the ocean and neighboring mountains were incredible. The communication with the property manager was prompt and succinct. The only thing I could critique was that we had some trouble with the a/c not working in a couple of the rooms, but the property manager was on it quickly and had repair people out fast. All in all it was such a pleasant stay and we will definitely be back.

Great Family stay Property for multigenerations

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: would have given this property a full five rating on everything were it not for the airconditioning in one of the bedrooms not working from the beginning of our stay. The management moved quickly to fix but needed to order a part so we were without airco in this bedroom for the first half of our stay. It was something that should have been tested and known before our arrival. That said we loved everything else about the place as well as the management.

Sunrise on the beach

Rating Details: The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The pictures say it all: the yard and beach access can't be beat. Loved sleeping in a very comfy bed with the windows open to the sound of the surf, then getting up at dawn for walks on the beach for the scenic sunrise and the brightest double rainbow I've ever seen.Inside, the house is very spacious, and the kitchen has high end pots and pans, an induction stove, a Vitamix blender, a Zojirushi rice cooker.... Only nit was that the washer had mildew, which is not a surprising for a front-loader used by renters in humid area. However, the sheets etc. must have been washed elsewhere because they had no mildew smell.
