18 Unique Airbnb Rentals You Can Book Right Now on O‘ahu

Summer is just around the corner.

You’ve worked hard all year and want to use some vacation hours for a short weekend getaway. A staycation at a hotel would be nice but the kama‘āina rates are still too pricey, and you'd rather retreat to a secluded area that does not have kids screaming by the pool, anyway. Fortunately, there’s an alternative. Spice up your getaway by staying at an Airbnb rental. We rounded up 18 Airbnb listings on O‘ahu that range from a tree house to a hidden gem in Kāne‘ohe Bay. Clear your schedule, because you may want to stay at these rentals for more than just a few days.

(In case you’re wondering: Those listings with one bed that say they can accommodate three or four guests? You’re welcome to show up with that many people, but you’ll have to decide who sleeps on the couch/floor/air mattress.)
