Beautiful!
We had a delightful stay at this property. Everything was as pictured and the hosts were very responsive and helpful. One note, it’s actually four bedrooms and a loft upstairs. It’s a very large space but doesn’t have a door. We love this home and hope to return!

I want to give it five stars but....
The location of our rental could not have been more perfect! The view was incredible and the small beach out front was an absolute joy (and the sea turtle that visited every day)! Our morning walk to Living Foods coffee was a treat too. The rental had everything we needed as far as space and conveniences. A couple of issues arose while staying and were very quickly addressed by Garden Island staff. Some feedback would be that the house needs a deep cleaning (carpets, fans and cupboards) and a bit of updating. Parts of the house are "run down" from use...like some of the furniture and kitchen. I feel like the cleaning crew is likely moving through the house at warp speed to prepare for the next tenant....the amount of dirt on the broken fan blade in the twin room was plentiful (guessing the rest of the fans are similar), in the master there was a walking stick and what appeared to be used tissues behind the dresser and the final nights sleep was with a giant cockroach in our bed (we realize cockroaches are a thing in Hawaii...but crawling on you while you sleep was a bummer). Anyway, I feel like these are things that could be easily addressed if given attention and I am sure the lovely staff at Garden Islands Rentals will do just that. With a little attention given to the home this would easily be a five star experience!

Loved this property and we look forward to coming back. The view from the lanai is second to none.
We did not want to leave this property for day trips. Snorkeling and access to Baby Beach was wonderful for all ages.

Great time by all
We loved the location of this property- the beach was perfect for young kids and the proximity to food/dining/shops was appreciated by the adults. There was something for everyone at this house— we can’t wait to return!

Great House/Location
We were very pleased with the house and location. More importantly, the owners and staff were completely accommodating to our needs as we had to cancel and reschedule due to COVID. We will never be able to thank them enough for being so flexible with us. We would choose this place again in a heart beat.

Loved it!
The house is fantastic. The ocean views from the deck are like looking at a picture. The sunsets are to die for. Beach access is the great. Amenities were as advertised. We had a great week
