NOTE:
* A vehicle is recommended as this property is uphill from the ocean, situated in cooler weather.
* The North Shore is one of the best places on Oahu to find untamed Hawaii as nature created it. The flora and fauna native to our ecosystem are a part of its splendor. In addition to the brightly colored tropical fish, on land you can anticipate seeing houseplants the size of houses, wild chickens & roosters roaming around, adorable geckos, tropical birds and the full menagerie of insects that sustain them ... some rare and beautiful (ex. Kamehameha butterflies) and others are decidedly less so. We will always have a clean and well-kept place for you that includes routine pest control, but please be advised that little visitors are not uncommon, esp. if you decide to attract them with unattended food.
* Our inventory of beach & sports gear is constantly changing as things get added or replaced. Such is the nature of outdoor "toys." It will always look similar to what you see pictured but may not be EXACTLY the same. Feel free to inquire about anything specific you've seen in our photos and we'll let you know of any changes.
* We live on the property and you may encounter our children playing in the yard.
* Please note that pricing and availability is subject to change and bookings are not guaranteed until a contract is confirmed. We are committed to making your booking experience as easy as possible.
* We have partnered with a provider of optional travel insurance, including a "cancel for any reason" option, if you need it. It's available for purchase after booking if the check-in date is at least 30 days away.
* Where applicable, the 3% per-transaction payment processing fee is non-refundable.

Our hosts were super welcoming. The property is beautiful. We had everything we needed at the house to enjoy all the beaches and what the North Shore has to offer. Would definitely stay there again! Thank you!!
We had an incredible stay! The hosts are so nice and took so good care of us! Everything was very clean and so beautifully decorated. We also loved the garden, the beautiful huge trees and the fruits we could pick from them. We had huge and absolutely delicious avocados! We love to stay there soon again!
Our family had a wonderful stay at this simple but comfortable house. The hosts were great and the location is tremendous. We will definitely try to come back.
We had a wonderful stay! The beds were very comfortable, and the property was beautiful—just a short drive to the store and nearby beaches. It was the perfect space for our family of three, and we’d highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway.
Great little cottage. Very freindly host! Enjoyed a fresh orange from the garden! I recommend you stay! Minutes from Sunset Beach views, local grocery store and coffee shop!
We enjoyed our stay at this property. The location is a great home base and so close to many beautiful beaches. The location is quiet and private. We found the host to be warm, welcoming and quick to respond to our inquiries.
Great stay! Wonderful location. The home had everything we needed except a place to hang our towels and swimsuits after a day at the beach. We would stay here again. The owners are so nice! Loved waking up to the birds and amazing fruit trees on the property.

Loved our stay here!
We absolutely loved our stay here! Once you’re through the gate, you’re in paradise! It was so peaceful and picking fruit from the trees was such a fun bonus.
The only thing we wish we had done was stay longer. This location was amazing and we really enjoyed the property. The hosts were wonderful as well! Would love to go back.
Gorgeous property in the North Shore. Loved waking up to the sounds of all the birds. Kids loved looking for geckos and swinging in the tree swing. If you're looking for a quiet, remote place on the island, this is a good fit.

totally recommend this place!
cannot recco this special home enough. it was so peaceful and maya and her family are lovely. hope to stay there again!
My teens and I loved this home. The grounds were beautiful and peaceful. The home had everything we needed. The location was central. We would stay here again.
What a neat little property! Easy access to the north shore including sharks cove for great snorkeling (5 minutes away) and the famous banzai pipeline. The rental is behind the owners permanent residence, so the owners are onsite and are super friendly and helpful when you have questions. We are dog lovers so was fantastic that there is a super friendly dog on the property that routinely came to visit when we were on the property. There’s also a friendly chicken that belongs to the property and would routinely swing by the rental to say hello lol. And there are plentiful fruit trees on the property that the owners allow you to pick from to consume. The oranges are delicious and we routinely used an avocado on our sandwiches for our packed lunches. Overall great place in a great spot away from the hustle of Honolulu and Waikiki!
