Great Place

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Every thing was great and what we expected when we arrived. We were contacted and said our property was ready early so we could check in early. One thing to think about is maybe supplying some flytraps as they were pretty bad.

Beautiful house with stunning views! A little bit lacking in the personal touches that come with a homeowner hosting the stay but the views make up for it. It would be nice to have shades on the lanai for when the sun hits the living room but that’s just nit picking. The biggest drawback was the beach. Not kid friendly. Sharp jagged rocks/reef with slippery spots. We tried to swim once but the waves were strong and the reef was a little treacherous and didn’t feel comfortable with the kids. Maybe better for expert level swimmers/surfers. Overall a really lovely house!!

Amazing beach house with sunset views right off the back deck. 3 bedrooms with window ac units and a loft with 2 twin beds and a portable ac so the house was comfortable. They really have almost everything you need to cook at home. We suggest you go to the property first to see what they have before buying a bunch of stuff. There is a smaller Foodland 5 minutes away and a larger one 15 minutes. The starter kit of supplies they provide is probably enough for your visit so don’t buy more before you go. The Toa luau is excellent and only 15 minutes away and includes a pass to Waimea Falls.

Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The view was beautiful! The house was clean , but 90 degrees inside. The air should be turned on at least a couple of hours before next guests arrives. We consider going somewhere else the first night. There is a step on the walk down that is sitting partially sideways. It’s needs to be fixed. Would be easy for someone to trip on. We had a wonderful week and did many activities. Snorkeling, kayak, swam in the waterfall, luau, Diamond head, Pearl Harbor etc.

We stayed here for a week and absolutely enjoyed this home. My family of 4 and our friend’s family of 4 both shared this home. It is big enough to house 4 upstairs and four downstairs. The house was very clean. The beds were comfortable. The air conditioning is only in the rooms but kept the rooms very cold and comfortable. The beach view is beautiful. We loved the outdoor patio and yard. It was very private and quiet. Communication with our host was good. We enjoyed our time at this home and would book again.

Fantastic property. Beautiful beach front setting. Communication with host was seamless. Convenient to multiple North Shore beaches. Property amenities were satisfactory to our family needs (6 total). One thing to be aware of is that the living room is furnished with outdoor/deck furniture (functional, just not comfortable) rather than traditional indoor pieces. The property could benefit from additional bureaus or dressers for clothing storage. Would definitely stay at this property again!
Nice double rainbow our last day at the property
Great sunset location
