The condo was exceptionally clean and well organized. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, cooking utensils, and a big variety of spices. Also plenty of beach gear! The view was amazing! Saw many whales and inspiring sunsets from the front windows. Checkin was quick and easy. The host provided so much helpful information about things to do in the area. I'd say this was our best Hawaii vrbo stay ever! Mahalo Natalie.

Thank you so much for the kind review. We’re so happy you enjoyed your 30 day stay. We hope you’ll return.
Great newer condo. Lots of tv. Many extras . Like food,Coffee ,cooking utensils, bathroom necessities and much more. Extremely organized. And a wonderful added attraction is the ocean view. I’d stay here again on this lovely and secured plantation.
Can’t say enough wonderful things about Natalie and this condo.! Natalie is an excellent host with the warmest and most welcoming manner! Communication with her is a joy. As for the condo, you really only need your clothes and toothbrush. Not one detail left out. The view is beyond comprehension! Don’t hesitate to rent this condo! Just don’t take our time! 😉

What a sweet family to host! Looking forward to next year's return! A hui Hou ~ Natalie ~ 🌺
Natalie and Mike’s place is the best rental property we have ever stay at. The host makes sure that you literally have everything you need from simple things as spices and coffee to all of your gear to enjoy the beautiful beaches Oahu has to offer. The check in process was easy and Natalie was always a phone call or text away if needed. The property that the rental is on is gorgeous as well. Our family had a great time swimming in the pool or relaxing in the hot tub. Our teens loved seeing all the wildlife on the property especially the Peacocks. Natalie and Mike go above and beyond to make sure you have the best time while you are visiting the island. All the small gestures and touches they have added in their property really meant a lot to us. This isn’t our visit time on the island and hoping it won’t be our last. We do know if we ever come visit again we will be reaching out to Natalie and Mike.

Mahalo for your kind review. We welcome you back anytime!
From the moment we walked in the door we knew we made the right decision when we booked with Natalie and Michael. A beautiful gift basket was waiting for us, Hawaiian music was playing on the TV, the fridge was stocked with bottles of water, and as we made our way through each room and opened all the cupboards and doors we couldn’t believe how well stocked the unit was. You literally only need to bring your clothes!!
During our 3 week stay we enjoyed the most beautiful sunsets, hiked the many trails the Westside has to offer and lounged and swam at some of the most beautiful beaches we have seen in Makaha and Waianae. The owners have provided a detailed book which includes everything you need to know about the Westside including beaches, hikes, best places to eat out, etc.
The unit cools off nicely in the evening and since we weren’t in the unit during the day we only used the ceiling fans and did not need to use the A/C. The king bed is one of the most comfortable beds we have slept in. The quality of the linens, towels, kitchen appliances, etc. are that of a 5 star hotel.
The complex is kept meticulously clean and everyone we met in the complex were all so welcoming. It was very hard for us to leave as we felt we had found our home away from home. Thank you Natalie and Michael for sharing your beautiful home with us!

Such a lovely couple to host. I do hope you'll come back perhaps after Ron retires! mahalo ~ Natalie
TL: DR; Great place for the right person looking for a remote getaway.
The distance to and from Honolulu airport was something we were prepared for, as we rented a car to get around the island. Registration at the front desk was easy, and they have a good process for people arriving after business hours. Security was present, and we felt safe. For condo maintenance, there was wildlife cleanup every morning. Beware, people feed the animals, though it is prohibited. The guest policy is functional, with adequate guest and resident parking.
We used the card-operated laundry and never had a conflict with missing clothes, though we were prompt with retrieving our laundry. There are multiple pools, and I witnessed staff cleaning the condo pool every morning.
Household Amenities were excellent for our extended stay. They included: Beach gear, pool gear, full kitchen and appliances, television, plenty of comfortable seating, a fantastic bathroom, and nice Makaha decor.
If you don't use the AC the space can be hot during the day, so close the blinds! We didn't need the AC when we did this, though we occasionally used the overhead fan. For the off-site amenities, plenty of local beaches within a 10-minute drive. The other side of the island is 1-2 hours away, depending on traffic. We planned our excursion schedule around the Hawaii commute and were better for it. I recommend reviewing the area online before arrival, as the nearest restaurants/grocery stores are a 15-30 minute drive away.
Minor issues: The electrical outlets need to be more conveniently located for work/monitor access; however, we were able to make it work. Hawaii does have its share of insects, and we did observe a few in the room. The geckos promptly took care of them.
See the wildlife comment above, the chickens are loud, and the cats meow. I bought earplugs.
Above and Beyond: The owner listed having a monitor available for usage and procured an additional one for us when we could not access the monitor promised in the description. The owners were very prompt with answering any questions we had and were great hosts!

Thank you Olivia and Leonard for being so gracious and for such a thoughtful review. ~ Natalie
Superschönes und überdurchschnittlich ausgestattetes Apartment
Es ist eigentlich schon alles von den Vorrednern gesagt und ich kann mich dem nur anschließen.
Die Kommunikation mit Natalie ist äußerst nett und sie antwortet sehr zeitnah. Wir haben uns vom ersten Augenblick wie zu Hause gefühlt. Das Apartment ist tatsächlich bis in die letzte Ecke äußerst sauber und gepflegt. Die Ausstattung. Hierzu finde ich keine Worte. Es ist wirklich alles was man sich denken kann vorhanden. Das geht vom Nähset bis hin zum Dachgepäckträger für das Auto. Unglaublich wie Natalie einem den Aufenthalt angenehm und erholsam macht. Hinzu kommen noch die vielen kleinen Aufmerksamkeiten, welche Natalie zur Verfügung stellt. Ganz herzlichen Dank nochmals hierfür. Das Apartment liegt in einer gepflegten und sicheren Anlage. Wir fühlten uns zu keinem Zeitpunkt unsicher. Die Anlage liegt etwas abseits. Das sieht man aber auf der Karte und wir haben genau das gesucht. Und ja es gibt Hühner in der Anlage, die auch morgens unüberhörbar sind. Dafür haben wir nie Ungeziefer gesehen. Keine Kakerlaken, keine Ameisen, keine Fliegen einfach nichts. Der nächste Supermarkt ist 10 bis 15 Minuten entfernt.
Noch eine Bitte an die Leser. Bitte geht sorgsam mit dem Apartment um, wir möchten sehr gerne wiederkommen. 😉
Zusammengefasst kann ich sagen, ich wüsste nicht, was Natalie besser machen könnte.
Mahalo Natalie 🙏
Tout était parfait. Toutes les commodités pour faire ses repas. Accessoires de plages fournis. Décoration avec gout. La vue sur l’ocean, l’ensoleillement. Propriétaires sympathiques qui s’assurent que tout est correct. Belle communication avec eux. Belles plages à proximité.
