Host was exceptional and was readily available by email for any questions. Opening and closing gate became cumbersome but was necessary as the few times we left it open people would wander thru. Pulling out on road could be tricky depending on time of day but location was convenient to head to North Shore or Koala Ranch. The daily sunrise was an exceptional sight.

The house was perfect for our family. The views were amazing. Having the water in walking distance from the back yard was the icing on the cake. Wade was very accommodating and communicated well. This was our family’s first time in Hawaii. It was definitely memorable and we will be back.

The house was great and the beach view was amazing. Wade was easy to get in contact with and upgraded the bbq for us when we notified him of a problem with the original bbq. We also just happened to be visiting during hurricane lala and we lost power for 3 days. Even with that little hiccup our stay was amazing and would recommend this place to family and friends.

Beautiful ocean view, plenty of space for the family with everything you should need for a relaxing and fun time on the beach. It does get rather stuffy so keeping fans on and windows open is a must.Wade was very attentive and communicative throughout the whole process making it a truly enjoyable vacation.

Wade was excellent to work with - very responsive and accommodating! Loved the location as it was right in the middle of everything we wanted to do. Close to Kualoa Ranch, Polynesian Cultural Center and all of the North shore. Waikiki/Honolulu area was a bit farther (1 hour plus) but we only went that direction 2 of our 9 days. North shore beaches are wonderful!! Ted's Bakery and Kula Shave Ice were 2 of our favs, along with the food trucks. If you are staying for an extended time, it is worth the trip to Honolulu for Sam's/Wal-mart to get groceries - significantly less expensive. Crouching Lion restaurant (just down the road to the south) was AMAZING!! Beds are comfy, everything was clean and well stocked. Was a bit taken back by all the wear and tear/rust from the salt water. No A/C - evenings and early mornings were fine, but daytime was a bit unbearable. Luckily we were gone almost everyday until after sundown. Overall, fabulous trip, stayed 9 days. Loved being right on the ocean - beautiful sunrises every morning!!

Hi Richard, we are glad you found the house to meet your family's needs. Yes, we have to admit the beach is one of the better ones on the island and it's like having your own private beach. Thanks for leaving the house so clean. If you folks are back in Hawaii we would love to host you again. Aloha, Wade

We had such a great time being together. We did all the things…. PCC, Pearl Harbor, snorkeling, paddle boarding— even jumped off a bridge while in Oahu. We absolutely loved the location of this home— the beach right in the backyard meant hours of fun!! The location was perfect— not too far from anything! We will definitely be back!!

It could not have been better...

I think everything was covered in other reviews, but I'd like to reiterate how kind and responsive Wade was. The place and location are beautiful and the home is in a relatively quiet area with everything that you might need relatively close by. Wade has virtually everything that you might need to enjoy the beach on hand. We definitely hope to return.

About the host

Hosted by Wade Nakashima

Host profile image
We love to travel and many times we stay at VRBO or Airbnb's. We love to stay outside the typical tourist locations and would rather experience the local lifestyle.

Therefore, we decided to share our house to allow travelers to experience the real Hawaii.

Why they chose this property

The home is located on a sandy beach that has minimal beach traffic. It's like having your own private beach in paradise. The large yard on the side is great for the kids or adults to toss a ball around or play. There is also a city park across the street if you need more area to play and has a basketball court. Sports balls will be available for your use.

Relax to the sound of the gently rolling waves. Sit on the patio enjoying the nice ocean breezes and/or lounge reading your favorite book. Let your cares drift away on this peaceful property.

From the patio, you can watch the kids play in the sand or swim.








.

What makes this property unique

This home is located close to Polynesian Cultural Center, Kualoa Ranch, Morman Temple, BYUH, Turtle Bay Resort and Golf Club.

Nearby Supermarkets include Tamuras and Foodland and Longs/CVS drugstore.

Many excellent local takeout and sitdown restaurants. Hauula souvenir and gift shop is right across the street.

Across the street is a city park that has a basketball court, playground, and softball/baseball/soccer/football field.

See the endangered monk seal come up to periodically rest on the beach. May also see manta rays or turtles in the bay or whales offshore. Snorkel around the reef to the sides of the house or fish from the yard.
