Our stay here this last week at your place was MORE than expected. Everything
was perfect--so clean and decorated with first class furnishings.
As a visiting "Kama'aina," it felt like our home away from home. We will be back
on our next visit for sure.

Aloha, Rhona and husband.

Our party of 3 ladies were DELIGHTED (an understatement) with our stay! Seabreeze FAR exceeded our already high expectations. It is immaculate, and the landscaping is gorgeous!

Two of us shared the master BR/BA. The bed was SO comfortable. I usually have a difficult time sleeping in a strange place; I was elated when I laid my head on the big king pillows. I slept like a baby the entire week!

Master bath is HUGE, plenty of room for both of us to be in there doing our hair, make-up, etc. We loved having all the drawer space to store our things, and enjoyed the vanity stool to sit on while primping, like we are used to at home. The lighted magnifying mirror was PERFECT for my cousin who had just gotten contact lenses the week before - still a rookie at getting them in/out. Just one example of many ways you’ve given EXTRA special attention to every detail in providing for your guests.

Our friend enjoyed the large second BR/BA. She is meticulous (another understatement); she came packed with her own sheets! Once she saw how clean Seabreeze was, she felt no need for them.

Your complementary goodies were so thoughtful. The kitchen is WONDERFUL, providing anything desirable. I love to cook and have most every kitchen gadget there is, so I really appreciated how well-stocked it was. While most on vacation don’t think about cooking, you provide EVERY amenity to prepare meals conveniently, for those who may like to save $$ on dining out.

The maps/brochures you provided were VERY helpful in our planning our daily activities, and navigating the island. We put almost 500 miles on our rental car, and didn’t EVEN use the GPS navigation on my cell phone. Other than getting turned around a few times in downtown Honolulu/Wakiki (lots of one way streets) I felt I drove around like I was a local.

Seabreeze’s location is EXCELLENT – easy access to near-by grocery stores, restaurants, etc. It is trouble-free to find, only two left turns off of the major highway from the airport, and the same highway straight up the Windward coast to the North Shore. It has all the conveniences, while being peacefully “tucked away.”

You mention the “beckon of the songbirds in mornings,” and you couldn’t be more correct. I strolled by the pool each morning, taking in the pleasure of their greetings. There could have been no more pleasant way to start my day. When I close my eyes, I can still hear them, and look forward to their welcoming me back to Seabreeze again.

Please know we truly felt Seabreeze was our home during our stay. There was NOTHING we could have hoped for to be any better. We were almost in tears as we said good-bye to Seabreeze. We made a unanimous decision we are coming back to Oahu again; when we do, we won’t EVEN consider staying anywhere else but Seabreeze. We will look forward to when we can enjoy the pleasures of our Oahu “home” again.

Heartfelt Mahalos!

Dear Owners,
I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for the pleasantness, comforts of home and excellent facilities you provided for me and my grandchildren during our recent stay at Seabreeze. Because of your attention to detail and thoughtfulness we all had a wonderful weeks stay. It seemed as if there was nothing left to chance: the kitchen was fully equipped and the beds were very comfortable. Especially appreciated was the welcome basket of "goodies" left for us upon arrival. Many thanks, again. Meryle H.

The stay here was absolutely wonderful. It was nice to get back late in the evening to a quiet place away from all the crowds. Everything was as promised. It is actually nicer than the pictures show. The beds were very comfortable. Plenty of room to spread out. Landscaping was plush against a backdrop of spectacular mountains. The view down the valley was awesome. All the extra supplies in the kitchen were a nice touch. It is easy access to Waikiki (15 min) but only 5 min to Hanauma Bay and then only another 10 min to some of the best beaches on Oahu. You couldn't ask for more. The owners were very gracious and informative on the best places to visit. We would go back in a heartbeat. Mahalo

Wonderful, peaceful, private and clean.
One of the most enjoyable vacations ever knowing that we could return each day to recharge our energy and enjoy the "real" Hawaii. We highly recommend this beautiful home. Mahalo!!

We recently stayed at beautiful Seabreeze for 8 nights. We feel very fortunate to have found it among all the varied listings. We were looking for a two bedroom, two bath unit with pool. We wanted our own private unit, with private entrance, not wishing to share space like at a B&B, and also not wishing to bother the home’s owners. We wanted something outside Waikiki, but still convenient to it. And we were looking for something moderately priced. Seabreeze was a perfect match for all these criteria, and more.

Seabreeze is part of a lovely large Hawaiian-style executive home which sits high on a hill in the Hawaii Kai section of southeastern Honolulu. It is the last house on the street and borders a lush hillside of palms, ferns, and other tropical plants. It is perfectly quiet. Seabreeze has its own private entrance, and we had the exclusive use of the beautifully tiled pool. Seabreeze has a large kitchen, comfortable dining area, living room, and two large bedrooms. It is all impeccably clean. The master bedroom has a large King-size bed with its own large bathroom with a tub, and large walk-in shower. The second bedroom has a Queen bed and looks out over the pool and across the valley below. Its nice bathroom has a large shower and is located across the hall. Both of the beds are so comfortable with pillow-top mattress covers. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you could possibly want.

Seabreeze is in a great location. It is less than a ten minute drive to Hanauma Bay, a beautiful state park known for its snorkeling. It is also very convenient to the beautiful coast and beaches of the southeast Windward side of Oahu. We thought Waimanalo Beach was especially gorgeous. Heading to the west it is an easy drive to Waikiki and downtown Honolulu. We especially enjoyed driving through the beautiful neighborhoods of Kahala district, along the base of Diamond Head, and through Kapiolani Park to get to Waikiki. Seabreeze is also very convenient for local shopping. A Costco, large Safeway, and many neighborhood restaurants with outside water-side dining are less than two miles away. We felt like locals, rather than tourists!

We can’t say enough about the graciousness of our hosts. They made us feel very welcome and let us know they were there if we had any questions or needed help of any kind. We cannot thank them enough for the Hawaiian treats they had waiting for us, chocolates, nuts, coffee, juices, and more. We felt honored. After our initial meeting we only saw them a couple of times, just enough time to say hello. They were so quiet, we never heard them. We felt as if we were living in our own home in paradise.

The VRBO listing states “Seabreeze Executive Home - Best Value on Oahu!” This is indeed the truth. $150 a night, plus tax, for a beautiful, quiet, clean, comfortable, convenient, and friendly unit that easily sleeps four, is, we feel, undoubtedly the Best Value on Oahu.

Being first time visitors from Japan and staying outside of Waikiki, was rare.
I am glad your stay was pleasant, and hope to see you soon.

After spending the week at your place and the following week in Maui, we
arrived back in Canada late yesterday afternoon...tired but very happy.
Mahalo! Mahalo! Mahalo! Seabreeze was a wonderful place to spend a week!
Everything there was as promised...and more. The extra supplies, maps and
help with pronunciation of hawaiian words were most appreciated and made
our stay even more pleasant. The pool was a real plus, especially my wife
who was in it every morning before breakfast. If we weren't out of town for
more than a month each summer, I suspect she'd want one installed
tomorrow...
We also appreciated the quiet of the house and surrounding area. Though you
were just above us, we never heard you. You must walk around on you
tiptoes... You were most gracious hosts.
Again, we thank you for contributing to a most memorable trip, and
whenever, in the future, we go down memory lane, we will think of you both
fondly. And be assured that our travelling companions, Don and Joanne
Mazeroole, would echo the mahalos. Aloha, Maurice & Grace.

We wish to express our heartfelt thanks for the wonderful outfits you gave
our baby daughter, Marina. That you also thought of our son speaks volumes
of the warmth & kindness in your hearts! Our stay was wonderful! We truly
enjoyed the peace and quiet your place afforded us. The landscaping, coupled
with the beautiful views gives the feel of a tropical hideaway. We could not
have chosen a better location to prepare for the arrival of our child!
Again, thank you so very much for your kindness. Please know that you made
us, and one little boy, very, very, happy! The best of everything is wished for
you. David, Melissa, Morgan & Marina.
