LOVE!!
Perfect for our stay. Super comfortable and clean. West Oahu is an interesting area, but Danny‘s home is in a beautiful neighborhood. We absolutely loved that it was not commercial or crowded. Very peaceful. Danny was a spectacular host. Answered all of our questions, provided fantastic recommendations, plus, interesting and fun to talk with and hang out with. It felt like we were staying with old friends. Danny owns a surf school and invited us to take lessons one day. That was not on our agenda, but ended up being a huge highlight of our trip. 10 out of 10 recommend. We would definitely stay here again. Mahalo For your kindness and graciousness.

A great location far from the tourist hordes, and a fabulous host made this feel like home. We loved the local feel and the family friendly beach (walking distance) which was mostly uncrowded in early April. Danny goes out of his way to be accommodating and helpful and we'll definitely stay here again when we make it back to Oahu.

10 happy days at Makaha
If you are not fussy there is everything you need indeed. Birds were singing in the distance before dark like at no other place . Large back yard was pleasure to look at and exclusively for us. The host Daniel was very helpful. His dog was the best behaved dog I 've seen. His black cat was coming to stay near us and like the dog was friendly. West Oahu has the best beaches. I did some swimming and free diving at the Makaha caverns nearby and was pleased to see more turtles and fish that I remember from 10- 15 years ago. Even small sharks were cruising at 35-40 feet deep. My wife and I can't surf but watching the locals and specially the young kids do it was amazing. We enjoyed walks before sunset . Sometimes the sunset would be so beautiful. There is a lot to see if you are into unspoiled nature.

Great studio, location and host!
We are a couple who stayed at Danny's place for 6 nights and we would stay there again! We much appreciated the tranquility, safety, and beautiful uncrowded beaches of the neighborhood. The air-conditioned studio gives access to an outdoor terrace where we enjoyed sunny breakfasts and stargazing with Reef and Midnight, the owner's very friendly pets. We also really appreciated the closed garage space for our car rental. Most of all, Danny was very welcoming and responsive: he gave us access to beach gear (chairs, towels) and provided many local tips for restaurants (Coquito's, The Beach House by 604) and island activities. On top of all this, he is an awesome surf instructor and in no time we were up on the boards enjoying the waves in Pokai Bay! The souvenir video, filmed by a drone, was an amazing highlight of our trip. Thank you Danny for being such a great host!

3 day stay
Danny is super nice and very friendly! Every recommendation he gave us (The Beach House for lunch, Ka’ena Park for a hike, Country Cafe for breakfast) was fantastic! We were able to take a surf lesson with him on our last day of our stay, which was AMAZING. An honest description of the property; it is a room built into/onto his garage so we had 3 cockroaches and 2 lizards (that we saw) crawling around the room… Everything else was clean. The room had a stocked little kitchenette, which was perfect. Danny’s neighborhood was quiet and safe, but getting to it was a little questionable (it’s not Danny’s fault, I just wished someone had given us a heads up about parts of the west side of the island).

Perfect place on Oahu
We loved staying at the Surfers Dream Studio! Danny is a great host and provided us with plenty of useful tips and information. We got to watch a surf competition within a few minutes walking distance from the place, while still enjoying the quiet neighborhood of the house. It is not a huge apartment, but it has everything you need and Danny is always willing to help and make your stay perfect. We also did a surf lesson with him and also rented his boards on the following day! It's indeed a surfers dream studio!
