The house was spotless and very comfortable! We had a problem with the coffee maker, but Amanda immediately handled it with no problems! She was readily available, helpful, and efficient! The only drawback would be the main bedroom, but it did not ruin our stay. The air conditioner helped cool the room, but it is quite loud and right next to the bed. I think it is an unfortunate necessity. The other bedroom delighted my adult daughter. She was quite comfortable and made a little nest. That said, getting to the bed is extremely difficult because it is high off the ground. It may be tricky for older people. The lanai was incredible and we spent most of our time there. We walked into Manoa most days, and really loved being in a neighborhood off the beaten track!

We would stay here again! We moved our daughter into Manoa and it was super convenient. We could walk to Manoa if we wanted to. It was a charming neighborhood and very quiet. The only issue was parking for our van. The street is a little tight. Otherwise, we had great communication with the manager. This is a historical house, also! (Does have stairs, so be mindful for seniors!)

Pros: Great location. Pleasant sitting areas. kitchen has what you need. Parking tight but okay. Property management folks pleasant and professional. Cons: Bedroom is stuffy with poor ventilation. Bed is mushy and clammy, with plastic cover and synthetic poor-fitting sheets. There’s an AC, but it’s loud. The trade breeze blowing through the bedroom would’ve been nice! The step down from bedroom to bath needs a nightlight. No house guide regarding WiFi, trash pickup, TV operation info.

Hawaiian wedding and birthday vacay

Overall, the property was as promised - the basement of a house in a lovely residential area with a lanai that has ample seating (we lived out there!), two bedrooms, 1 bath, small kitchen. My only complaints are that is was a bit quirky and dated (which was somewhat expected from the pictures), but the biggest problem was that the mattress in the main bedroom was so soft and caved in that only the youngest member of our party was comfortable sleeping there, so one of us had to sleep on the couch the entire 10 days.

Excellent Neighborhood With Manoa Falls Close By

We enjoyed staying at the Manoa property especially being in the Manoa Valley neighborhood and visiting the Manoa Marketplace throughout our visit. It's an extremely safe neighborhood. We did the Manoa Falls hike too which was close by and a beautiful hike. Amanda was very helpful throughout our stay. The kitchen sink was not getting hot water for a few of our meals though Amanda reset the water heater and it should have worked after that (we didn't cook a lot after it was turned back on though). If you want to get to know the Manoa Valley or need to be close to UH this would be a good place to try out.

Beautiful bottom unit of a duplex on a quiet side street in Manoa. Well-equipped kitchen. Nice lanai with a view of diamond head. Newer washer/dryer. Assigned parking in driveway. There were a/c units, but we never needed to use them; fans were enough.

Home away from home

Perfect place to stay with family, especially if you have littles. Unit was clean and just as described and communication with property manager was easy, quick, and reliable. Only downside is if the upper unit is also being occupied during your stay-the main bedroom, below the staircase can hear everything.

The home was neat, cozy, comfortable, and provided everything we needed (mostly in the kitchen and TV-related). It was in a quiet neighborhood convenient to everything we wanted to see and do nearby.

Beautiful views and cute neighborhood

This little home was a lot bigger than I expected! Great space, good amenities, cute historic details and beautiful views from the large porch. Two full and sizeable bedrooms worked great for our family. Only downside was all the stairs inside that inspired the toddler to climb around. One of the beds is essentially lofted and has to be climbed into.

Would stay again

Only complaint was the initial musty smell (but we also realize this is an older Lower level home) but we soon realized that once we arrived and fired up the air conditioner the smell went away. Upper bedroom was super cold at night which we LOVED and with the fans the whole u no t stayed pretty cool! The Lanai was amazing and the view of Diamond Head was even more amazing. We had a couple of cockroach sightings but not any more than anywhere else we have ever stayed in our multiple trips to the island. I felt like we had everything we needed and the upstairs guests were so lovely and kind. 9/10 and would book this place if we return again. Close to University of Hawaii where our child goes.

Quiet neighborhood

This property is nice to get away from the city life. It was a bit too old for me. It’s a bottom unit that you have to take stairs down to. The bedrooms are a bit odd and small, very stuffy. They do have AC units and fans but I still felt like I was in a box. One of the bedrooms smelled of mildew. When we got in one of the AC units was leaking and the management and owner were really good on making sure it was fixed right away. The outdoor shower is great for those beach days.

Loved this location outside the hustle bustle of Waikiki with stunning views of Diamond Head & Honolulu city lights! Enjoyed the peaceful, safe, friendly historic beautiful Manoa valley neighborhood. Accommodations are very comfortable, homey and roomy with a great porch! Lots of beach supplies available too. Only downfall is you can hear the people walking around in the upper part of the house. Would definitely come back & stay here again!
