This place is magical! Chuck the care taker was super nice. The house was incredible with hand painted murals, super comfortable beds, and all the amenities you would need including kitchen pots, pans, utensils to cook a Christmas dinner. Watching the waves and surfers was mesmerizing. We couldn’t have as for a more special place to stay. We even saw a full rainbow over the ocean our last day.

When you’re a child and you dream about going to Hawaii, you always think of staying at a beach house like this. We had a wonderful time with our family and made fantastic memories with our children that will last a lifetime.

This house on Sunset Beach is one of the most beautiful places in the world for us. After our second stay there, we know for sure that we will be back.Special thanks go to Chuck, who helped us during the evacuation due to the tsunami.

What a perfect place for our family! We loved relaxing in the backyard. The views are breathtaking and the landscape is beautiful. Having the beach in our backyard made it so easy to take the kids multiple times a day. Great location to get to everything in the North Shore! If you’re thinking of booking this place, do it!

Beautiful beachfront stay in paradise

Our family has just returned from this incredible beachfront place. Everything was wonderful. We had an excellent time and appreciated how clean the place was, how easy it was to find and to enjoy, and how kind the property manager is/was. Thank you for such a relaxing, serene stay right on the beach!

Awesome experience on the beach

We are a local Hawaii family that wanted and escape from our busy work lives. We spent a few days at this house on the beach to unwind and celebrate a special birthday. The back porch is an excellent spot to eat meals and enjoy the beautiful scenery. The ocean is simply steps away from the house. What an awesome experience! I wish we could live here daily...
