About this property
Island Life Retreat-Ocean Front-Beach Access
BEACHFRONT • GROUND FLOOR • WALK-OUT WITH VIEWS
Step straight from your ocean-view lanai onto a quiet stretch of white sand—your own authentic Hawaiian paradise. The reef-protected turquoise waters are calm and perfect for swimming, paddleboarding, kayaking, or simply floating in the warm Pacific. Bring your snorkel gear and snorkel right in front of the condo to spot tropical fish and sea turtles, or enjoy the serenity of a private beach with no public access, away from the crowds. The turtles sleeps on our beach at night, just left of the lanai looking towards the ocean.
Newly Renovated for Your Comfort This beautifully refreshed condo features new flooring throughout, an extended bathroom, a sleek kitchen countertop, and brand-new living room furniture—all designed to make your stay as comfortable and stylish as possible.
Your Island Escape This well-appointed 1-bedroom, 1-bath condo offers 812 square feet of space to relax and unwind. Being on the ground floor means easy walk-out access, open green space, and unobstructed ocean views. Start your mornings with coffee on the oceanfront patio, where magical sunrises light up the horizon, and end your evenings to the soothing sound of waves breaking on the distant reef.
Inside, enjoy ocean views and refreshing trade-wind breezes from both the kitchen and living room, creating a bright, open, and relaxing atmosphere. For warmer days, the living room includes a window AC unit, and ceiling fans throughout the condo keep the space cool and comfortable.
Sleep Comfortably Bedroom: King-size Sealy Plush bed Living room: • Queen-size Serta Euro-Top Murphy bed with sunrise views and ocean sounds • Comfortable sofa bed for additional guests
Location Highlights 10 minutes to the Polynesian Cultural Center 5 minutes to Hau‘ula Loop Trail 20 minutes to Turtle Bay Resort for dining and golf 45 minutes to Honolulu Airport Close to Kualoa Ranch, local food trucks, and scenic coastal drives
Please Note Our ground-floor unit’s repiping is fully complete, but construction is still ongoing in other units and may temporarily affect shared areas such as the parking area. At this time, guests are parking on the side road or across the street at Kaya’s between 8:30 AM and 5:00 PM. There will be front spots available for loading and unloading.
Guests still enjoy direct beachfront access, ground-floor walk-out convenience, and all the comforts of a newly renovated condo. Most visitors find that the ongoing work elsewhere has little impact on their stay, especially when spending time exploring the island or relaxing by the beach.
Why You’ll Love It This is not a luxury resort with spas. It is a true beachfront condo with the comforts of home, ideal for travelers seeking peace, authenticity, and a genuine connection to the ocean. Come experience “No Worries” island living at its best.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Loved our time here at this VRBO! Especially the privacy of the beach, being around the locals, and the location for all our excursions. The only thing that was tough was the lack of AC. Pro-tip: open the back AND front door to really get the breeze going! They stocked the place with bug spray, sunscreen, scuba gear, beach chairs, beach towels… it could not have been better! I did not want to leave. Definitely try and wake up early to catch the sunrise and turtles on the beach at least one of your mornings!
We had a wonderful stay! The location is quiet and peaceful, with a beautiful private beach that made the whole trip feel extra special. The property is a little dated, but honestly, it was exactly what we were looking for—comfortable, relaxing, and a great value for the price.Kim was amazing to work with and incredibly accommodating, which made everything even smoother. We truly enjoyed our time here and would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a calm and enjoyable getaway.
We had a wonderful stay at this condo with the kids! Great location, away from the busy hotels in Honolulu. Our host was amazing to us during our stay!
Loved this property for our honeymoon. Only stayed here the last 2 nights of our vacation but wish we would have found this place sooner. Great location with the beach right in your backyard. Highly recommend!
This property was perfect for wanting to be on the beach and away from the city. It was close enough to get to anywhere on the island within 45 min to an hour. The scenery was picturesque and the condo was in great condition and clean. Would definitely stay again.
This older but clean, cozy, fully stocked, lovely condo without all the fancy amenities was perfect for us. We loved being on a private beach with quaint towns and shopping nearby. Host was very responsive to our needs and questions.
We had such an amazing time here . The condo was everything we were looking for and the beach was breathtaking. Kim was amazing and made the check in and out process effortless. We can not wait to come back and enjoy more time here!!! Maholo Kim for an amazing stay and sharing this place with us!!!
Such an amazing place to stay! Condo is just what we needed! Great access to the beach!

Beautiful condo facing the ocean. Very nice place to stay with all the amenities available in a great location to all the other beaches on the North Shore.

Thank you Linda for your 5***** review, we hope you come back and visit soon!
This property was an amazing stay. Highlights were the private beach and ability to swim with the turtles.
Well equipped apartment that accommodated not only is but our toddler, too.
Would definitely recommend to friends and would love to stay again in the future.
