Aloha! Our stay at Kolu Honu was a pefect way to spend a honeymoon. My wife and I walked into a clean, airy and comfortable home with music playing and a fresh platter of fruit on the counter. The house was exactly as described and the view from the lanai was the perfect way to start each morning. We would definitely come back again! Mahalo!

We had a fabulous honeymoon in Hawaii and, specifically, Kolu Honu was a great place to wake up and fall asleep every night! The house is BEAUTIFUL and the patio (lanai) is unbeatable! There are 180 degree views of the bay and you can watch boats and kayaking while you sip your morning coffee! MAHALO SCOTT!

Kolu Honu is recommended to all who need peace and quiet in paradise! We spent six days in June 08' with perfect weather and nice breazy nights. The property is perfectly appointed which left us with very little need to buy anything at the market (you even have 1st grade Henckel knives for gourmet cooking!). We have stayed at many rentals on the windward side and this is leagues beyond all. Ultimate privacy, breath-taking heavenly views, and much more. Thanks Scott!

We had the pleasure of staying at Kolu Honu for 3 weeks while I worked on Oa'hu. It was everything described and then some! We felt at home immediately, and enjoyed every aspect of the house. The stunning view is addicting, and I found it hard to leave on the days I had to work, wanting to just stay and gaze out at Kaneohe Bay. Scott was wonderful to us and accomodated us at every need. We enjoyed the Lanai, eating meals we prepared in the wonderfully appointed kitchen, just relaxing and watching how the sunshine changed the look of the bay from one hour to the next, and the wonderful sounds and smell of rain falling, (not to mention a special treat of having the Blue Angles one weekend zipping across the bay over and over! We had a birds eye view!) Kolu Honu is also centrally located - which since I was working, was great! What a wonderful stay we had, and we will forever remember being "at home" in Kolu Honu. We hope we get the opportunity to return! Thank you Scott, I cannot begin to tell you how much we truly enjoyed Kolu Honu. It was a blessing beyond words.

Kolu Honu is perfect!!! It is even better than its description! Even the pictures don't do it justice...you have to see it all for yourself! It was the PERFECT place to spend out honeymoon

What a wounderfull place to stay while relaxing in paradise! The house was just as explained and the pictures do no justice as to just how beautiful Kolu Honu really is! Nice central location to everything oahu has to offer, yet far enough away from the faster paced city to relax and take in the fantastic views.
Thank you again Scott

You can't get any closer to heaven than from the deck of this house. The views leave nothing to explain. Truly comfortable and exactly as explained in the owners details of this house. No details left out. Fully equipped kitchen should you wish to cook a meal. The driveway was an attraction in itself. Close to stores/mall and dining. I would stay here again if planning another trip to Ohau. Mahalo Scott, for a wonderfully comfortable home.

I was fortunate to be able to stay at Kolu Honu while working in a consulting capacity in nearby Kaneohe. I started my day with fruit and coffee (provided) and relaxing on the lanai, and then, after a full day of work, I found more simple relaxation while I checked email on the lanai! What a great place to stay...with many ammenities plus some were unexpected! Loved the views, very comfortable bed, very well equipped kitchen....I hope to return again and again! Mahalo, Scott!

Our family had a great time at Kolu Honu. Everything was as expected, even better. The house is beautiful, the view amazing.
So many nice beaches are close by. I can't understand how anybody wants to stay in Waikiki...
But - one week was not enough. So we have to come again :-)
Mahalo!

We stayed 6 days at Kolu Honu in December 2006. We were very comfortable due to the many extras provided by the owner. The view is unbelievable - we took pictures from sunrise till after dark.

The location is great - not far from anything that you might want to see.

We would definetly recommend this rental to a couple or small family visiting Oahu. It is so much nicer than a hotel.

My granddaughter and I stayed for 10 days in paradise at Kolu Honu in September 2006. We found it so peaceful and relaxing. We would start each morning with a short drive to the beach and then then spend the afternoons "adventuring". Everything was so close at hand, and everyone we met truly personified the Aloha spirit. We can't wait to come back. And we will definately be staying at Kolu Honu again.

Our family of three were guests from December 18-24, 2006. We had a wonderful time. Kolu Honu is exactly as described and photographed which is not always the case. Thank you!

Our family stayed at Kolu Honu for 10 nights. Of course our time in Paridise went by too quickly. Holu Konu is just as described~the view is 'priceless'. We can only hope that our photos captured some of the beautiful views. The location was better than we could have asked for. Beautiful home, comfortable bed and futon. Our three children called Kolu Honu~~~Home!
We hope to return before too long, and would definitely stay again.
Mahalo for providing such a wonderful getaway in paridise :)

We were able to make easy arrangements on short notice, about a week prior to our stay. The transaction was smooth and the property as advertised. Major positives for the following... Nearly new home with great views, plenty of space for two people, excellent floorplan, awesome lanai, nice features such as air conditioning, vertile lighting, jacuzzi tub, fully stocked (utensils, etc.) large kitchen, laundry, etc. all added up to a pleasant stay.

A nice touch of hospitality and value was added by the owners offering to do some minor up front grocery shopping for us prior to our arrival which we reimbursed them for. This really helped us as we were on a short stay and time was precious.

The steep driveway takes a bit of getting used to. Our low riding rental car scaped a bit at the top (the owners warned us about these issues in advance prior to booking, which was much appreciated.) Don't sweat it going up and take it slow going down and you should be just fine.

Location was just right. Out of the hustle and bustle, but still close enough to get you to just about anywhere on the island in less than 45 minutes. We drove to Pearl City several times to visit family and we made it in 20 minutes unless we hit rush hour traffic.

Probably best for early risers with full bore morning sun streaming into all of the rooms.

All in all, this property provides an excellent getaway for those seeking something different than your typical hotel room or suite.

We would stay here again.

:)
