Hawaii Kai is a highly desirable location on the South and East side of Oahu. The Mariner's Ridge mountain weather is not as dry as the very dry Leeward West side of Oahu and not as rainy as the Windward East side. The trade winds keep the temperature cool in Mariner's Ridge. The nice cross breeze in Mariner's Ridge moderates the temperature, making it cooler than the valley and Marina below.
The ocean views, mountain views, marina views, fruits, flowers, greenery and birds in the garden below are stunning and spectacular.
Dish network with two 50' flat screen TVs. Eight HBO stations, Red Zone Sorts and NBA League pass for all teams NBA games. Highest speed internet available in Hawaii on WiFi. Hawaii Registration Number W14292195-01.

This was my 10th trip to Hawaii, but the first time to stay outside of the Waikiki area. The unit is as described (and actually so much more). Very high end - and top quality. The location provides spectacular views from your own private lanai. It is absolutely spotless and I have never seen a bathroom floor shine like this one. Every detail is considered - from private parking to beach equipment to an activity and restaurant book followed by detailed maps. All the "special extras" that await your arrival such as the fresh fruit, gorgeous fresh flowers, and additional treats just add to the overall memory and experience. We visited Hanauma Bay - only a few minutes away. We spent time at the amazing beaches very close to the unit - and caught both the sunrises and sunsets. We rented a Harley, and spent time in Waikiki and hiking in the parks. Roy's and Teddy's Burgers (both close and with good food) and the local Safeway store was great. Best of all are the owners - Tyra and her family are absolutely amazing - warm, welcoming, helpful, caring. Thank you for the special care you put into this property - it shows in every detail and makes for a worry free, high end vacation. I would not hesitate to recommend this property. Thank you, Tyra!Recommended for: Adventure seekers.

A Touch of Paradise

I feel seriously torn between keeping this wonderful vacation rental secret to myself or letting others know about a bit of paradise hiding atop Mariner's Ridge in Hawaii Kai. My husband and I just got back from spending a wonderful week in this rental. The rental is a wonderful balance between luxury and practicality. The kitchen area has everything you need to make a sandwich lunch or to pop popcorn for watching a movie while you lounge in the king-sized bed. But you won't want to waste much time on TV, even though there are 2 big screens, because there's so much to do: the beach chairs, boogie boards, and snorkeling gear beg to be taken to the beach. Before heading out the door, take a moment to look carefully at the greenery in the front yard you'll find the flowers that fill your rental growing there! Having grown up in Hawaii, I loved the flowers and the fruit that can only be found in the islands. Leave the chaos of Waikiki and retreat to this hidden gem just outside of Honolulu. It's the best treat you can give yourself!Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, romantic getaway.

I would give this rental 6 stars if I could! The location was excellent with good access to everything we wanted to see and do. The neighbourhood the rental was located in was very lush and beautiful. Tyra and her family made us feel very welcome and at home, and were available to help us with any questions we had. The views from the suite are incredible, and the unit was spotlessly clean. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again for our next trip to Oahu.Did you find this review helpful?

We had the best holiday we have ever had so far in your wonderful place in Hawaii. Thanks Tyra. The place is spotless and has everything we needed, It was very close to Haunauma Bay and you even provided the snorkelling equipment and towels. We followed your recommendations of where to go on the Island and had a ball. We felt like locals living in the peace and quiet of Hawaii Kai and yet within easy reach of anywhere we wanted to go. We have referred your place to everyone we know. We wish you all the best for the future for you and your lovely family. Much love Vicki and DavidDid you find this review helpful?

I rented this fantastic apartment for parents to visit us here in Oahu. We live nearby in Hawaii Kai and have found this to be the perfect place them. Hawaii Kai is a great alternative to noisy and crowded Waikiki and convenient to the many places that make Oahu a great place to visit. This was the perfect place for my parents who are both over 85. The parking is right by the door to the unit with only one step in between. Tyra and her family were great hosts and treated my Mom and Dad like family. It really made their visit a great experience. The neighborhood is great, the view is spectacular, and the apartment is first class. The little touches provided by the owner are a bonus with tropical flowers, fruit and wine to greet you and make you feel special and appreciated. I highly recommend!Did you find this review helpful?

This vacation suite is the best kept secret my family and I have ever come across. It's bigger than a hotel suite with all the quality and accommodations. Our hosts even provided complimentary chocolates and wine. It was immaculately clean, cozy and relaxed with a private parking spot and a balcony with a mountain-top breath taking view. This view contained the best of a tropical garden, a lush valley, and a beautiful beach. My family of four was quite comfortable there without the crowding we have endured in your typical 4 star hotel room. The best part by far, however, was the escape from the commercial side of vacationing. It is located in a residential area away from the tourist traps and exploitations found around most major hotels. Our hosts provided snorkeling gear, surf/boogie boards, and even fishing equipment when we wanted to check out local areas for crabbing. They even recommended wonderful restaurants in the area that didn't leave us feeling scalped. We strongly recommend this vacation rental to anyone who loves to vacation without having to put up with the tourist commercialization of it.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, people with disabilities, pet owners, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.
Owner response: Thank you for the exceptional review. We try to make it a roomy and enjoyable space for a family like yours. Glad you enjoyed it!

If you want to enjoy all the convenience of Honolulu without the noise, sirens and tourist traps, this Hawaii Kai ridge top nook is perfect. In a tiny space it has everything you could possibly think of to make a stay comfortable, including beach chairs, snorkels and more. The owners make you welcome with flowers, chocolates and wine when you arrive and fruit from the garden (apple bananas!). The view from the lanai spectacular, there is always a cool breeze, everything is clean, and it is a lovely quiet residential neighborhood. I loved looking down from a steep cliff at trees full of birds during the day and looking at the lights of the Marina at night. Hanauma Bay is so close (3.5 miles) that you can be there early enough even on weekends to beat the crowds, and we found wonderful local, non pretentious restaurants and bakeries in Hawaii Kai with great breakfast and sushi. Does not hurt to have Costco right there as well! It is a Hawaii Costco and a great place to pick up your Kona coffee, poke, macadamia nut products and a tankini.Did you find this review helpful?

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2006
About the owner: We are a family of three with an ten year old daughter named Trisha. The property is small fruit and flower farm named Trisha's Garden. Her father was born in Tonga and mother is from Chicago, IL and is Swedish/Irish/German. We love Hawaii and plan to never move from Hawaii.
Why the Owner Chose Hawaii Kai:
Hawaii Kai is beautiful. The house is located 660 feet up on the Ridgeline of the mountain and nobody can ever build and block the amazing views, because it is so steep. Hawaii Kai is not super dry like the West side of Oahu and yet not super rainy like the Windward side. The trade winds create a cross breeze, so it does not get too hot as it can on the Marina or in Valleys. There are plenty of stores, restaurants and activities in close proximity.
The Unique Benefits at this Townhome:
We grow Tropical flowers and fruits from all around the World. It attracts many birds that sing happily. Your room will have fresh orchid plants and tropical flowers with many picked from Trisha's Garden, in your room upon your arrival.
