Hawaiian get away

We enjoyed our stay at Waimanalo Beach. The beach is the best on the island! Shaded in the afternoon and not crowded. We used the outdoor dining and private lanai as another room. Great location for visiting the whole island!

Best property I’ve stayed on in a VRBO

I have stayed in this neighborhood before in different rental properties and this was by far the nicest place with the most privacy. Excellent location, quiet neighborhood, proximity to beach is wonderful. House is great, patio was a wonderful bonus with lots of privacy.

A wonderful cottage!

My husband and I REALLY enjoyed our stay here. We wanted something away from the crowds in Honolulu, but close to places of interest, and this location was perfect. The cottage was cozy, clean, private, and had everything that we needed. This was our first trip to Oahu, and our experience exceeded our expectations! I look forward to staying here again!!

Relaxing Getaway

The property is beautiful, located steps from the beach. It had all the amenities we needed and had an "away from it all" ambiance. The neighborhood is quiet and the beach almost seemed like our own private resort. The drive to Honolulu was and easy 30 minutes. The only downside was a very firm bed and the check in listed three different addresses. Mark answered our call promptly and we sorted things out promptly.

Quiet cottage with lovely, private courtyard. Off street parking and washer & dryer on the property. Perfect for a couple. Stocked with everything we needed for cooking meals. Full size refrigerator. The Property Manager and the Property Maintenance gentlemen were easy to contact, kind, and prompt to answer. We would stay here again!

Visiting our son

The property was even better than described. We like to stay away from the crowd and noise of Honolulu. This place was beautiful inside and out. They think of everything you might need during your stay. The upper garden area is so relaxing you could spend all day there, but the beautiful beach is right down the path so you have to go there too! Morning sunrise is a must. I could go on but you need to go experience it yourself. We will be back!!

Waimānalo cottage stay

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at our favorite beach in Hawaii! The place is a small cottage, perfect for the two of us. It was about 100 yards to the water, and we walked over every morning and every evening to enjoy the waves. There were a couple of boogie boards at the house and we used them all the time. We also used the small grill provided and appreciated the washer and dryer right by. Everything was just very easy. Loved it!

Lovely private property

I needed last minute accommodations to visit a sick relative. The management went above and beyond to make my stay perfect. The house has a private entrance and gated parking. The entry terrace has a zen feel and is a perfect place for coffee or a glass of wine at the umbrellaed table. It is also well equipped with a grill. Behind the unit is everything you need for a day at the beautiful private beach, just down the street. The kitchen is perfect and has all the essentials. Check the cabinets before you shop as some things are already there. The walk in closet is combined with the bathroom and makes unpacking a breeze. The bed is comfy with ample bedding . I stayed by myself but i could see a family staying comfortably as there us also a sleeper sofa. This is a gem of a place
