Other things to note
Additional Info About the Home
🏢 Accessibility — 10 steps required to reach elevator from main parking area
🏠 Loft bedroom — open to living area with limited privacy
🅿️ Parking — front lot often full, main guest parking behind buildings C & D. We recommend pulling into the front lot briefly to unload, then relocating your vehicle to the upper lot. Be sure to park in a space marked “Guest.” Finding a guest spot right in front of the unit is rare—but lucky if you do! 😊
🦎 Island life — Hawaii is magical! Occasional geckos or ants are a normal part of tropical living — not a reflection of cleanliness. Routine pest control is performed.

Hello There, My name is Nick. I am 100% made in China, and with good quality :) I love traveling and have traveled to 40 plus countries and 46 states in USA. I moved to USA in 2007 to pursue my MBA at Duke University. I graduated in 2009 and moved to Seattle to work for Microsoft. I love Seattle! I met my husband Bryan here in 2010. We got married in August 2013! I used to travel alone, but now I travel mostly with Bryan. We welcome our three daughters into the world in 2015 and 2017. To learn more about our surrogate journey, you can visit 2dads3girl website. You can also find my memoir "Two Dads and Three Girls" on Amazon. We love road tripping, camping, and traveling to amazing islands. We are open, honest, and treat others with respect. Thank you very much for reading! Bryan and I welcome you to stay with us! Have a wonderful day! Best, Nick and Bryan
