Overall great stay
The house is a bit difficult to get (steep drive) to but the views are well worth it! Our family of 10 really enjoyed our stay and all the beach supplies that the house provided. Having a van made getting around the island very easy and our hosts were so quick to respond to questions and need. I highly recommend this home and will be back with our family again!

Thanks for staying with us - yes, the view is absolutely worth it. Luckily, the house is located close to everything the island has to offer. It's pretty special to get that view without having to go far from the action. We look forward to hosting your group in the future!
Great place, felt like home. All our family enjoyed staying here. The view is amazing. Loved goings out in the evenings to enjoy the beautiful view. The home neat and tidy. Everything we needed for our stay was available.

Yes, the house you stayed in was our family home for many years - and we're hoping to return to it eventually. In the meantime, we are so grateful to get others the opporunity to enjoy what this amazing island has to offer. We just want to make sure everyone has a safe house and minivan to enjoy it with!! Please send us Aloha soon!
This was the perfect place for our largish family. Glen was very responsive and helpful. We felt safe and well cared for. It is clear that this is a family that truly cares about their guests and their happiness. Having the van was super helpful! The location was perfect for us. Will definitely seek out this property again!

Aloha ,
Thank you so much for this wonderful and detailed 5-star review! We are absolutely thrilled to hear that your family enjoyed the home, from the quiet neighborhood and the skyline view from the hot tub to having plenty of space to gather.
It's fantastic to know that you found the kitchen well-stocked and that the included van was "amazing" for your adventures to the beaches and hiking trails. We're so glad the beach supplies came in handy!
It was a true pleasure to host you, and we really appreciate your kind words about our communication. Thank you for highlighting the convenient location to the University of Hawaii—it's a great tip for future guests visiting the campus.
We hope we have the honor of hosting you again on your next trip to Oahu.
Mahalo,

Loved the house, met all our expectations
We were thrilled with our vacation rental. The house met and exceeded all of our expectations. Often time vacation rentals look better in photos, then what is reality, but that is not the case here. The house is wonderful and it is stocked with any and everything you may need during your stay. Glen was super helpful as well.

Amazing family trip
My family of 9 stayed at Glen and Lara's wonderful house for a week. What a wonderful home.. they had everything we needed and were so accomodating and very easy to get in contact with for any of our needs. They had a van that we used and it was in great condition and perfect for touring around. The view from the Lanai is so amazing especially from the hot tub. I would highly reccommend staying here or any of the properties Glen and Lara own. Thanks again for everything and for helping make a memorable vacation for my family.

Great home away from home!
Glen & Lara are the most responsive owners that we have ever worked with! So refreshing to receive prompt responses to inquiries, regardless of the time. This home was perfect for our family of 10. We would heartily recommend this to anyone who wants to be away from the hubbub of down town, but still have easy access to the beaches, restaurants and shopping. Quyana cakneq for your hospitality. Mahalo!

We had an outstanding stay at Ocean View Oahu!
The property was everything we wanted it to be and more! Where to start: The BBQ Grill was professional grade, the hot tub was PERFECT!, the property's proximity to beaches and restaurants was very convenient, the kitchen was put to intense use as we made many meals and it came through with flying colors!, internet was great and we even used the house printer. The house AC was top notch, sleeping quarters were excellent, the vista from the outdoor deck/hot tub was magnificent and the neighborhood was comfortable and safe. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. We spoke several times with Glen during our stay and he was always easy to reach and helpful to talk with. This was an outstanding property!
Response from VrboOwner on 31 March 2020
Mahalo! Nice to hear that you had an outstanding time here. Please visit again.
The house was in a great location. Super close to freeway access for getting around the island. Seemed like a safe neighborhood and quiet too. Great view. Accommodated our family very comfortably. Only negative was that we could have had better supplies on paper goods for kitchen and bathroom. Refrigerator for some reason was extremely cold and our produce froze solid. Otherwise air conditioning and fans kept the house very comfortable.

Aloha Gordon - I am sorry you had so much trouble with your text reception on your phone.
It seems like Text communication is the up and coming new standard for the vacation rental industry.
In addition, we were never made aware that you had any issues during your stay. It was difficult for me to follow your review items, but I assure you that safety is our number one priority.
We are so glad you found the location of the house ideal and that the use of the two minivans really put the package over the top! Thank you again for the great stay!! Glen

Wonderful Accommodations & Host
The accommodations were everything we hoped for - comfortable, spacious, well-equipped, central location for everything and spectacular view of Honolulu. And the host was always responsive to our requests. Thank you Glen and Chandler for a wonderful family vacation.
This place has an amazing view of diamond head and the city. It is very close to great food and Waikiki. The rental van was a plus! The new renovation left the house with stuff everywhere outside. Would have wished to know more ahead of time, but it didn’t matter overall as it was in the back yard away from the picturesque view. My friends and I had a great time and would recommend staying here.

Hard to Imagine a better Host
We really enjoyed our stay at Glen's place. What really stuck out to us was Glen's hospitality -- he was kind, understanding, accommodating, thoughtful, and responsive. It's hard to imagine a better host. Location is great and really convenient for heading into Waikiki or other parts of the island, given the house's proximity to major roads. As far as the house is concerned, the outdoor area really stood out with an incredible hot tub, deck, and grill. We didn't end up using the grill but we spent quite a bit of time outdoors, especially in the evening. We'd definitely be open/excited to stay at Glen's place again in the future!
It was a very comfortable living space for our group of 8. The kitchen had everything we needed. The van included in the rental was well worth it. We would highly recommend!

Needs thorough clean, updating and fix stuff. Great view, great location, great car.
View, location, car = 5 stars. Manager Glen responded & apologized for uncleanness and said on Feb 3, 2020, he would give us a credit for the cleaning fee. When he did not give it by Feb 16, I asked. He then texted me Feb 16 to leave a 5 star review in order to get that credit!

Thank you Lynn for give our HOUSE and FREE VAN FIVE stars.
I apologize for the stained towel and the delay in getting half your cleaning refund back to you. To make for the delay and the misunderstanding regarding the "five star review" I will double your refund to include 100% of the cleaning cost. Customer satisfaction is paramount to us, and has been since we started this business a decade ago! We hope your daughter is feeling better and look forward to your return trip with us.
Perfect! Thank you for the convince through the whole process of renting your beautiful clean home!! The nighttime view of the city...WOW!! Everything was more then expected!! Spacious and filled with helpful little items and info! We Enjoyed the large kitchen, large bedrooms and the hot tub! Thank you!!

You are so welcome - please come back and stay with us again! We love the morning and night view too !
This property is in a quiet area, away from the bustle of Waikiki, but the inclusion of the rental car made getting around easy. The views were to die for, and evenings in the hot tub, looking at Honolulu and Diamond Head were amazing and enjoyed by all our family. Breakfast on the Lanai were a relaxing way to start the day, and we were treated to a couple of perfect rainbows.
The property easily accommodated our family group of 7, including 2 newly weds. The hosts had thought of everything a family may need, from an excellently equipped kitchen, to a great barbecue, copious beach towels and beach equipment.
The hosts were helpful when booking and check in and out was easy. We requested an extension to accommodate our afternoon flights and this was no problem for them. The car rental was very easy and 7 adults fitted in easily.
Given the opportunity we will go back to this place, or one of Glen’s other rentals.
Thank you so much.

Yes, I agree that the house is perfect for families and the van can seat up to eight people! We are happy you enjoyed yourselves - congratulations to the newlyweds too!!
The house was very nice. The AC didn't work as well as it should have, but Glen says it is being fixed this week. Also, the photos in the listing are outdated. And the road up to the house is very steep and it is challenging to maneuver the van around the circle drive. We managed to make it each day without incident. We learned to go up past the house, turn around and approach the driveway from above. That worked much better. Also, all of us were senior citizens and had difficulty going up the 20 or so steps in the front. We learned to walk up the steep drive to the back door and then only had four steps to ascend. That was much better.
We were surprised to see another VRBO rental by the Robinson's so close to us (the rear house). The renters took a smoking break in the patio between houses almost every night and the smoke wafted into the back bedroom. Also, they were a little loud on the patio and those in the back bedroom could hear the conversation clearly.
The beds were very comfortable. We slept 7 without problems. The views were very good to the southwest and the northwest. We had rain and clouds most days, but we were able to see the sunset once. We were there for the record-setting rainfall that fell on Honolulu. No problems at the house, though.
The fireworks on Friday night were so far away and down low that they were not impressive. Glen was quick to address the problems we had (plugged toilet).
All in all, we had a great time. We really enjoyed the large, well-stocked kitchen and the oversized diningroom table. WIth all the rain, we only used the hot tub once, but it was nice.
Response from VrboOwner on 31 March 2020
Thanks for the constructive feed back, Hal. As discussed, we have addressed those items that you brought up- we pride ourselves in constantly making our rental better and better for future travelers. I'm glad that we were able to help you better navigate around the driveway and stairs - it seems like the solutions we found were great for your group! Yes, we have two rentals on property, and we really cater to large groups that rent both homes together - boy can you imagine having TWO vans, TWO BBQ's and TWO hot tubs for your vacation to the islands? Thanks again, and we hope to host you in the future!
Glen and Family
The home is very comfortable with a fantastic view of the city, but could definitely use some updates (like new carpet). Glen was delightful to deal with and the whole rental process was simple. It was a perfect place for our family to enjoy time together! We would rent it again, thanks Glen.
