This location has it all! A sandy beach front and one of the most spectacular views on the North Shore. Most beach front houses just look out at open ocean. However, this Oahu guest house has been built higher up the lot providing full 180° views of Laie Bay, Hukilau Beach, Malaekahana State Park, and Goat Island. The lower part of this large (2/3 of an acre) beachfront lot offers a private, gated access to Laie Beach. Do you remember the lyrics in the Hawaiian song "All the Hukilau nets are swishing, down in Old Laie Bay"? Well this is the spot that that the song was written about.

A little less than one hour from downtown Honolulu, this beautiful location will give you an "Outer Island" experience without the extra airfare cost and time, traveling to Maui or Kauai. Some of Oahu's biggest attractions such as the Polynesian Cultural Center, Turtle Bay Golf Links, and world-famous North Shore surfing beaches are only a few minutes away from this Laie retreat. It's the perfect blend for a paradise island getaway.

This large 390 square foot studio, was primarily designed as a guest accommodation to the main house. It's fully-equipped tile kitchen and bath will delight you. The studio sports 10 foot high ceilings and large, panoramic ocean views from both the huge 3' x 6' kitchen window and from the 6'x 7' sliding glass patio doors. Its queen-size "wall bed" folds away during the day to optimize space. Although the unit has a room air conditioner, most people prefer to leave the sliding glass doors open and fall asleep listening to the tranquil surf sounds.

Choose the perfect setting for your morning breakfast of tropical fruit. Just outside your door is a tile lanai or a few steps down is your own private sun deck, complete with lounge chairs and table. A hillside of tropical plants, ponds, waterfall and ocean sounds await you.

The owners (2 adults) live in the main house. There is convenient driveway parking for your rental car with your own private gated entrance, this studio has it all...Great views and beach front too. This is truly a unique beachfront rental at an affordable rate, not to be missed, so come and share our beautiful little piece of paradise!

  • We had an absolutely fabulous time at this little piece of paradise! In fact, I think I'm still going through withdrawal! It was wonderful to fall asleep to the sound of waves crashing every night, especially with such a comfortable bed. The studio is so close to the best beaches and the magic of the North Shore. Skip the Honolulu city life and just stay up here! Walk on your very own deserted beach, watch the sun come up and the whales breach. Simply perfect.

  • What an AMAZING vacation! This studio is so perfect that it's hard to describe. It was worth every penny to be out of the crowds and right on the beach. We swam before the sunrise and boogie boarded well after the sunset on many evenings. Each place we wished to visit was within an hour drive from the studio and we were *so* glad to return to the peace and quiet of Laie. Plus, the snorkeling was wonderful and the best spots were within five minutes! We will certainly be returning for future visits.

  • An amazing place to vacation. Awesome in every way. Clean, comfortable, well equipted. Located in a great location to access the North shore of Oahu. The owners are helpful. The studio perfect for 2. Cook if you want or look in the guest book to see what others experienced. If you want to relax or do everything from swim to hike to shop, this would be a great place. Reserve this one if it is available!!

  • What a wonderful place to stay! Linda and Ken make this studio better than words can say. You're right above the beach and we slept ever night with the door open so that we could hear the sound of the ocean as we drifted off to dream land. If you want to be away from the crowds that flock to Waikiki, this is the perfect place to be. Make sure to try the shrimp at Giovanni's, the hot is just that, HOT!! Snorkel at Sharks Cove, found it much nicer than any other place on the island. Try some Coconut Porter, but don't try buying any in Laie. Next time we travel to Oahu, the first place we'll look at to stay is this property that Ken and Linda run. Mahalo!

  • We came to Hawaii this year the last two weeks of August- the first week on Maui in the resort area of Kahana- then we came to Laie for the second week- two dramatically different experiences and while we really enjoyed them both- week two at this unit was THE BEST!!! It was warm the week we were there but we were able to stay ahead of the hottest part of the day when the sun was hitting the windows mid to late afternoon- the evenings were glorious as we left the doors open and listened to the waves. Mornings were great, and the best time to walk the beach as the tide was out and you had a nice firm walking/jogging surface for at least a mile. The pictures on the web site don't do the views justice- it is fabulous. We enjoyed Chester- and yes, I bought him treats! A couple of his friends were always close by and got their share as well. We have rented in Lanikai from indivduals- as well as on Maui and Kauai- this place and the owners- Linda and Ken- beat them all hands down! There's plenty to do in the summer on the North Shore- you can go to Honolulu but you'll just get frustrated with the traffic- We really enjoyed the area's eateries- Ted's Bakery was fabulous- Fumi's Shrimp was better than Giovanni's and there was a really good barbecue place south of Laie about fifteen minutes- I think it was called Uncle Bobos. We have been doing Hawaii about every other year since the mid 90s- and this is the first place we have stayed at that Jan and I agree- we will book again- that's a slam dunk!

  • We arrived here Saturday from a l0 day Hawaiian Cruise. This is better! Only here for five days and tomorrow is our last. I'm having separation anxiety already. We live in Florida about 20 minutes from the beach---again, this is better! Love having the place open & always hearing and seeing the beautiful ocean, sky, black swan in pond right outside our door----lovely. Studio is clean, very well equipped. We want for nothing. Owners are very helpful, informative. Friends living here in Mililani visited and we had a lovely time sitting out on the verandah & walking along the beach. They loved the place also. Highly recommended. Don't want to leave.

  • Stayed from 12/7/06 - 12/18/06. I came to Oahu for the U2 concert, and didn't expect much more than that. I left Oahu with so many memories of a perfect place to be. This little studio, was in one word, PERFECT. Great place to see the whole island, great place to lay on your own beach and do nothing, or a great place to just be. Ken and Linda, my new friends, were always there to help me with directions or "which one is the best place to" ... and of course Chester, the cat. I can't think of another place on this island that I would ever want to stay. It's quite, private,very clean, has everything you want and need, and the ocean is right outside your door. I never closed the door at night, and now back at home, I miss the sound of the ocean when I sleep, watch tv, eat dinner or just read. It's wonderful. I chose this place due to the feedback given, and I can say, it's all correct. You will never want for a more perfect vacation place, and if you do, its probably not out there anyway. I stayed at the Jurassic Park place for my first three nights, and then here for the rest of my two week holiday. The best of both worlds for sure. I almost forgot, Aloha Stadium, Dec 9th, U2, INCREDIBLE

  • Where do we start...We stayed at Ken and Lindas WONDERFUL studio for 12 days and had the best time ever! The place is clean as a whistle, loaded with amenities to no end...and we would of taken the bed home if it weren't so noticeable! I recommend putting the pillows at the opposite end of the bed, so you can go to sleep hearing the ocean, and waking up seeing it. Ken and Linda are there to tell you all you want to know about anything! Very helpful...and make sure you read the guest book before you venture out, so you know what to stay away from or to put on your "to do" list. Chester made our trip away from our 2 cats alot easier. Make sure you bring cat treats! The view is breath taking, you walk down the beautiful private path right down below to a beach that is almost all yours. We highly recomend this place...we will definatly be back next year. Thank You Ken and Linda for sharing your beautiful place and views with us.

  • My wife and I stayed here from Oct. 2nd to 16th. We had an outstanding two weeks at this great location and hosts who display the true meaning of Aloha. It is truly like an outer island adventure. The Studio large comfortable with too many amenities to mention. Definitely a Million Dollar view in a great neighborhood. (easy walk down to the quaint Laie Shopping Center). Linda and Ken are extremely helpfull with any questions you have and full of suggestions and knowledge of Oahu. Our last night with them was most memorible as we were quests for dinner on a powerless Oahu due to the Earthquake of the 15th. We already miss Chester Checkmark patiently waiting at the patio door in the morning for us. I rate the Martins' Laie rental as our best vacation ever. The experience was far more than we could have expected. Thanks again Ken and Linda

  • Wow! Perched about 100 feet above the beach you get a spectacular view Laie Bay, not part of it, all of it! Relaxing and comfortable, my wife baked on the beach and I watched her from the shaded studio and enjoyed the beauty of the Bay. You can walk on miles of beach with your eyes close and not run into anyone except people fishing for this tiny 2 inch fish. The studio could be a shack and it would not matter, but it is not. Beautiful tiled floors, full kitchen and bath, and a queen size bed that folds up into the wall. Plenty of room, we could almost live there; again what a view. You could travel the north shore in about 50 minutes and along the way you can enjoy mountain views, snorkel, dive, hike, surf, wind surf, take a ride in a glider and shop (my wife’s favorite). During the drive you have to stop for some roadside garlic shrimp and the Crouching Lion is a must for dinner. If you go to the Polynesian Cultural Center get there not later than 1pm to do everything; especially if you are planning to do the Luau and show. The show ends around 9pm; both the Luau and show are first class and very much worth it. The owners are wonderful and friendly; everything is very private and you would not they are home. Like everyone else that stays we also have to mention Chester, he is the most friendly and lovable cat we have ever seen, we wanted to take him with us. When MacArthur left the Philippines at the onset of the WWII he said that “We shall return” or something like that; so will we. Thanks for a wonderful stay! Tracy & Regina
