Honu Hale Lanikai (Honu means turtle, Hale means house) is a simple and comfortable two bedroom oceanfront vacation home in beautiful Lanikai on the island of Oahu. It has one bedroom/one bath in the main house and a large private bedroom and bath upstairs, which we call the Dolphin Suite. It can accommodate up to 6 people--2 each in the bedrooms and 2 on the queen futon bed in the living room.

Honu Hale Lanikai is located exactly in front of the Mokulua Islands, providing endless hours of outstanding views from both bedrooms as well as the living room, dining room, backyard, side deck and even the upstairs bathroom. Easy access (a short stairway down to the ocean) means you can swim, snorkel, kayak, fish, etc. right from your yard. Your days are filled with the sounds of waves, trade winds blowing through the coconut trees and picturesque sailboats, kayakers and outrigger canoes going by. Lanikai provides a fun and healthy lifestyle in a friendly beach community. It's perfect for families as well as couples wanting a relaxed Hawaiian style home environment away from the busy and crowded resort areas.

We came to this place for the wedding of our daughter, sister, and friend. It was perfect that we were all able to stay together in this beautiful house on the water. This excellent setting with the view of the 2 little islands, with the outriggers, kayakers, boaters and swimmers brought back the memories of the beautiful place that brought us all together, Palau, and that made us all family. ... We so enjoyed our early morning swims with the gorgeous sunrises. The colors from the sunsets were amazing. The stargazing incredible. All the neighbors were so kind and friendly. Most of all we enjoyed our daughter's, sisters's and friend's wedding that was a dream come true for us all. We made so may more beautiful memories here to share with one another and friends when we meet again.

Thank you so very much for the wonderful stay in your beautiful home. We had such a relaxing vacation here. The view is incredible and we loved the privacy! Our kids will never forget this experience, nor will we! Everything was just perfect--couldn't ask for a more accommodating home away from home.

Each day a coconut floats in from "unknown" islands. Watching crabs (from a safe spot) walk along. Watching many bird or geckos, that's what I did.

Thanks for hosting our vacation! We loved the sunrises, Air Chair (we bought one for back home), hammock and the Internet for researching Luau times, etc. We really liked the upstairs. We loved taking pictures of the 2 islands and playing soccer in the backyard with a beach ball. The geckos were great and swaying palm trees were perfect in our pictures.
We hope to come back soon! The Ross/Wingavaer families

The Honu Hale is fabulous because of the location location location. Home provided all utensils and housewares you may need. Great view of the Mokulua islands and the neighbors are absolutely fantastic. This is a beach house and this house definitely takes a beating from the weather. Just spending 10days there we realized how much and yet the home is in good shape. Love the separate bungalow above the driveway and the ohana room. The bungalow allowed us to have privacy. We spent most of our time either on the lawn (air chair), wall or in the ohana room. Perfect place to block out the wind on those windy nights (which is every night on the windward side). I was worried about the weather since it said scattered showers, but it was funny how it definitely rained just not on our house, maybe a few houses down and only for 10mins. Yes, having the fisher men out everyday right in front on your home was a little annoying but they really do not bother you. They are there only for the fishes and they leave during the midday and return for a couple hours at night, but you will find someone there at 5:30am every morning. Hey me and my family fishes too so it was fine with us. Good way for us to figure out where the fishes were. Just followed the pros! Would I book this location again? Absolutely!!! I was able to visit w/family and friends w/o leaving the property! That is my kind of Vacation! Mahalo nui for allowing us the pleasure of experiencing everything Honu hale and Lanikai has to offer! Remember ppl Location Location Location! Perfect!!!

Having formerly lived in Lanikai in the 1990s, this was our first trip back since then. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. The house has great ammenities (towels, sheets, all the kitchen implements you could ask for, comfortable, clean, private), not to mention that it is situated in the perfect location (amazing beach that hasn't remained the secret it was 20 years ago). John (owner) was extremely helpful, thoughtful and honest in all aspects of the process of the rental. We are looking forward to returning to Honu Hale Lanikai each year.

From our Guest Book: Wow, what a place!! We love it!! Best family vaca ever!! Swimming, snorkeling, sunbathing, BBQs + the best breezes ever known. Throw in a couple thunderstorms + this desert family from CA had the best time ever. Played cards, games and explored the island. North Shore, Waikiki, Sandy Beach + Kailua. Ate at Roy's, Buzz's, Sunsei Sushi. Also Boots & Kimos. We love this charming, quaint beach shack. The perfect place to relax -- naps in the hammock -- ah so nice. Thank you for a memorable week.

We loved our stay at Honu Hale--the sunrises, the ocean breezes, the sound of the waves lapping the seawall, snorkeling, fishing, crabbing, kayaking, swimming with the sea turtles or watching them from our Hawaiian backyard, and the moonrises over the Mokuluas. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed our stay there--even my redneck son-in-law, who thinks we should make it an annual trip. We also enjoyed eating at Buzz's, Kalapawai Cafe (both locations), Agnes Bakery, Big City Diner and the to die for pancakes & mac sauce at Boots & Kimos. Shave ice at Island Snow was a must after a day at the beach. We will be back!!! Mahalo and Aloha!
