Born in Hawaii, I moved away early in life and spent my childhood relocating to various states and countries. At 17, my family returned to Honolulu, my mother's birthplace. She was raised by a Hawaiian family who spoke the Hawaiian language. I hold a master's degree in social work from the University of Hawaii, but ventured into the retail business with my mother after graduating. We successfully ran 4 retail stores on Oahu for over three decades. Now, I'm embarking on an exciting new business journey. My husband and I are parents to two boys: a 20yo in college at UNLV, the other a surfer and Junior in high school. My husband, Paul Drewes, is a news and weather anchor at Island News, a CBS affiliate. I'm thrilled to start hosting! Aloha! Gina Lei For any inquiries during your stay, please feel free to contact me through the app or by phone.

Waikiki is located on the island of Oahu, which is the most populated island in the state of Hawaii. Waikiki is very walkable, so it’s definitely possible to get around without a car. It’s only a few blocks deep and roughly 2 miles long, It’s about a 15 to 20-minute drive from the Daniel K. Inouye International Airport (Honolulu Airport), making it easy for incoming visitors to reach. From Waikiki, you can also reach the North Shore in 45 minutes, Pearl Harbor in 20 minutes, and Kailua in 25 minutes. As the most visited part of any island, Waikiki has no shortage of things to do and see. If you’re in Waikiki on a Friday, then you won’t want to miss the weekly fireworks show. While fireworks are lit by the Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort, anyone can come and enjoy the show for free. Just grab a spot on the beach, and you’ll have front-row seats to the amazing fireworks display. Things kick off at 7:45 PM sharp, so make sure you’re there on time.
