I am soooooooo happy that we stayed at this gorgeous Windward Oasis with my parents and kids this summer (so sorry for my hubby whose work schedule could not make it)!! The first and most important was the hospitality of Cindy, Brigid, Janie's couple and Anne. My mother flew from Japan arriving at Honolulu Airport early morning and was originally planning to wait for us until evening when the rest of us arrived from East Coast. They were so caring that they provided early pickup for her from the airport and even helped her shopping groceries! We are so impressed by the encounter with warm-hearted people like them. The townhouse itself and furnishing as well as kitchen gadgets and amenities were all well-considered to enjoy the vacation life there. This house has been the most beautiful and well-kept vacation rental we've stayed so far. Even a fried-pan was one of the highest quality, which made cooking at the premise so easy and enjoyable. Both my mom and I wanted to purchase the same one for home use;-) The beds are so comfy and we could easily recouperate from jet lags. The dining table was made of pretty marble, chairs and sofas were so relaxing. The location was very convenient. We frequented the Heaven's beach that was only 10 min or so drive. We also enjoyed early morning tennis then dived into pool followed by the uncrowded jagzzis. What a heavenly vacation! Anyhow, we cannot thank enough for all who got involved with this property. Now Hawaii is one of our most favorite destinations and we will definitely come back!! Much Mahalo!!!

We had 8 wonderful nights in this condo. Very clean, updated and the location in Kaneohe is perfect! A bit of traffic noise, but did not hamper our time inside. Great property amenities, nice linens and kitchen appliances/dishware. Cindy (Property Manager) is the best! Very thorough, friendly and efficient. Will consider staying there again when we go back to Kaneohe! Mahalo!

The Windward Oasis property was everything we had hoped for. The pictures are precisely as the property appears in person. It is well appointed and sparkling clean. Upon arrival we were kindly greeted by Cindy who patiently showed us through the property and pointed out all of the features and how to information for appliances,etc. We really used the kitchen and were impressed with the quality of the kitchen amenities right down to including some frequently used spices. We enjoyed a lovely view of the bay. The pool was a short walk and when we needed anything from the store it was only minutes away. The owner and the property manger responded quickly to any inquiries we made. Our party of five was completely comfortable in the space. We would highly recommend this property to anyone considering staying there. While it is located on the Windward side of the island it is only 20 minutes by car from the hustle and bustle of Honolulu. We found staying here extremely relaxing. While staying at Windward we visited the Arizona Memorial, The USS Missouri, The Dole Plantation, The Macadamia Nut Farm, The Punchbowl, and Waikiki. Restaurants we enjoyed were Devino's (Italian) in Honolulu, Lucy's in Kailua, Kim Chee II in Kaneohe, Roy's in Honolulu. We especially enjoyed greeting our son's submarine at Pearl Harbor as they returned from a six month deployment. It was a wonderful way to all be together under one roof and have "home" cooked meals in a relaxing atmosphere with all the comforts of home.

Great Location, Beautifully Remodeled & Immaculate

What a fabulous property and location! We had a most wonderful six weeks in this aptly named Oasis. We have never been to the east side, “Windward” side of Oahu. We were so delighted by its natural beauty and gorgeous, uncrowded beaches. We took full advantage of the condo's proximity to great restaurants and shopping. This property was a welcome respite from the chaos and congestion of Waikiki which is too commercialized. We felt part of the real Hawaii when staying at the Windward Oasis. The townhouse itself exceeded our expectations. The property has been well cared for and thoughtfully remodeled. As I have dust allergies, I particularly appreciated the cleanliness of the home. The marble, travertine and wood floors/stairs felt great on bare feet. We all enjoyed the living room couch and love seat which fully recline. The beds were particularly comfortable. Our teenage daughter liked the iPod players and big screen HDTVs. We hope to return next year for three months, so writing this review was hard because we don't want anybody to book during the months we want it :-) Mahalo, Jim, Mary and Elizabeth

My family of 6 (four children) stayed at the Windward Oasis for almost a month. We came with just our clothes. Brigid thought of EVERYTHING! From spices in the kitchen to child safety gates, all the toiletries you would need, multiple sheet sets and towels, dishwashing detergent, etc. It was very clean upon arrival. The pool/rec areas are beautiful. Lots of grass and hills and paths for the kids. Great views all around. Cindi and Brigid were wonderful to work with. The location is perfect. It's convenient to everything. Two dedicated parking spots and lots of guest parking. You can't go wrong with this property.

We have spent a lot of time on the Hawaiian islands over the years. We have enjoyed several lovely properties, but none as luxurious and well cared for as this one. We appreciated all the new furnishings, the comfortable beds, the spectacular kitchen with pristine, top-notch appliances, the marble baths, the big screen HDTVs, the view over Kaneohe Bay, the travertine floors and the overall cleanliness of the place. We appreciated the serenity of the community and the many amenities it offered, from the beautiful Koi fish ponds to the relaxing jacuzzis. The location was ideal, conveniently located to great supermarkets, pharmacies, yummy polynesian/asian restaurants and bakeries. We enjoyed the exceptional beaches on the east side of the island, only 10 minutes from the townhome. We felt genuinely welcome, as the owner and the manager anticipated and were attentive to our needs/preferences. This truly was a tropical oasis, an exceptional home away from home.

Thank you for sharing your beautiful town home. We enjoyed the pools, the walking path and the easy drive to so many parts of Oahu. The driving instructions and books were helpful. Our three young children loved having such a comfortable, quiet, friendly place to come back to after our daily excursions around the island. Our favorite beach was Hanauma Bay and we loved the hike to the lighthouse and Manoa Falls. Mahalo. The Bertelsen Family Denver, CO

Absolutely wonderful time ladies! Perfect weather and beach time. Saw a lot of the island in 10 days....never bored. The condo was excellent, clean, quiet, well worth it. PS. Watched humpback whales off the shore near Shark’s Cove and swam with turtles and surfed on the North Shore near Haleiwa. Never a dull moment on this trip. Thanks for all of your help and great organization. Thanks so much! Scott, Kim, Shane and Emily Fort St. John, BC Canada

Thanks for sharing your wonderful property with us! We had a great time in Oahu! We were surprised at how beautiful it was as we'd heard from so many different people that Oahu was the "worst" of the islands. Well we're regular visitors to Maui, and now having explored the island of Oahu, I can safely say they must be crazy! The Koolau Mountains are breathtaking and the white powdery sand on Kailua Beach was amazing. We had a blast visiting the North Shore several times (I think that area is most definitely our favorite - we love the laid-back vibe!), hiking to waterfalls, snorkeling in Hanauma Bay, visiting the Polynesian Cultural Center, shopping the swap meet, and eating at all the local restaurants! We can't tell you how great it was coming home to such a nice place to wind down and sleep after long days of driving and beach hopping! The property is so well maintained and SO well stocked! There was everything from laundry detergent to shampoo to every kitchen necessity you could think of! The ONLY thing that kept us from a 5 star rating was the location. It's not in a bad area, but it seemed like no matter where we wanted to go at any time, it always took at least 30 minutes - even to the nearest beaches. BUT - that being said, it still would not detract us from staying at Windward Oasis on our next visit! This property makes up for it! You will not regret staying here!
