The perfect Hawaiian experience

Gille and Angela's place is absolutely perfect. Just a few steps away from the best beach in Oahu. We felt so safe with them on the same property. Gille cut us open some coconuts and Angela was always ready to help with whatever we needed. Thanks for an awesome stay!

Amazing hosts and lovely place to stay

Angela and Gilles are very friendly and likeable hosts. They are there when you need them and still allow for your full privacy. The cottage is a very cute and cozy place for an extended vacation. The porch feels like a big outdoor living room. We loved the place and recommend staying there. Mahalo!

The property was excellent. The pictures and description were accurate, so we expected it would be beautiful. In fact, it was much better. But our hosts, Angela and Gilles were truly exceptional. Gilles is a true gentleman, in the classic sense of the word, and Angela was delightful and very easy to talk with. What more could we ask for?

Cozy Cottage in Idyllic Beach Location

Our recent trip to Waimanlo Beach was the most relaxing stay I have ever had. The cottage is located about 250 steps from a 5 mile sandy beach in a comfortable beach neighborhood. The cottage had everything you need to feel at home and the hosts were generous with local knowledge and produce after living in the main house for 20 years.

Giles and Angela are exceptional hosts, always available but give you lots of space. The location is outstanding, away from the hustle and bustle of Waikiki but close enough to drive in for the day, the beach across the street is beautiful and never crowded. Our favourite place to stay on the island!

Fantastisches Cottage nur ein paar Schritte vom Meer entfernt

Das Cottage war perfekt für unsere 4-köpfige Familie. Wir haben unsere 2 Wochen sehr genossen und uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Das Cottage ist sehr hübsch eingerichtet und der Lanai ist grosszügig und lädt zu verweilen ein. Wir haben uns v.a. dort aufgehalten, wenn wir zu Hause waren. Der sehr schöne Waimanalo-Strand ist nur ein paar Schritte entfernt. In Gehdistanz ist auch ein einfaches aber sehr feines Restaurant sowie eine Tankstelle mit Shop vorhanden. Vielen Dank an Gilles und Angela für eure Gastfreundschaft. Wir werden gerne wiederkommen, falls es uns (hoffentlich) wieder einmal nach Oahu verschlagen sollte.

Waimānalo is the way the North Shore used to be!

Almost all of Oahu has become too crowded and resortified, but Waimānalo is a throwback little community with a 15-mile per hour speed limit, a handy small-scale supermarket (Shima's), and an amazing practically empty sand beach that goes on and on. The cottage is one street in from the beach, and located between two beach accesses, so it is a fast and pretty walk to the endless sand. The cottage is in the back of the gated property (attached to the double garage for the main house) and separated from the main house by a lovely yard. The kitchen just begs for you to prepare meals in it, and there is a very nice grill on the deck as well as a large dining table with umbrella. Outdoor shower so you can rinse the sand off before stepping up to the deck, and washer/dryer around the back. A few changes have been made since the pictures were taken, but mostly upgrades (better sleep sofa in living room, new bedroom french doors, larger dining table on deck). And the cottage is full of artwork! Just a wonderful place to relax for a week or so.

Private cottage near a beautiful beach

Quiet, cozy and private cottage near one of the most beautiful beaches on the island. The bed was very comfortable and loved the decor and island breeze (never needed to use the ac). Location was very convenient for us because we were only a 15 minute drive to family in Hawaii Kai.

PARADISE

We loved everything about the Tahitian Cottage. The beach was absolutely beautiful with white sand and turquoise water! The house was well stocked and clean. The bed was perfect with crisp sheets! The location was ideal with very few tourists and lots of locals. It was well situated to go everywhere. We went several times to Kialua to shop and eat. It was also convenient to Honolulu and Waikiki. We attended a great Luau at Kapolei called Chief's Luau which was recommended by Gilles, the homeowner! Also the drive on H1 around the Southeast shore was beautiful. All in all it was a spectacular week!! We highly recommend and Gilles and Angela couldn't have been nicer or more acommodating!

We had a spectacular time!

It exceeded our expectations...a cottage on a secluded beach in Hawaii for a whole month! The cottage description and photos were accurate. Entire place was clean, convenient, safe and secure, and lushly landscaped in a tropical way (nice big change from winter in Ohio.) Kitchen was well-stocked with pots, pans, utensils, appliances, etc. The owners, Gilles and Angela, were friendly, helpful, accommodating, plus interesting and fun to talk with. Location away from Waikiki and Honolulu was peaceful and quiet, but they were still only a short scenic drive away. The beautiful and uncrowded beach was across the street and down the access path. Cable TV and wireless internet were high quality. Bed was comfortable, bathroom was good, and patio was spacious and private. We had a spectacular time!
