About this property

Island Life Retreat-Ocean Front-Beach Access

BEACHFRONT • GROUND FLOOR • WALK-OUT
Step straight from your 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. 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.
Your Island Escape
This well full ocean view 1-bedroom, 1-bath condo (812 sq. ft.) offers plenty of space to relax. 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 unwind in the evening to the soothing sound of waves breaking on the distant reef.
Sleep Comfortably
Bedroom: King-size Sealy Plush bed
Living room: Queen-size Serta Euro-Top Murphy bed with sunrise views and ocean sounds
Location Highlights
10 minutes → Polynesian Cultural Center
5 minutes → Hau‘ula Loop Trail
20 minutes → Turtle Bay Resort (dining & golf)
45 minutes → Honolulu Airport
Close to Kualoa Ranch, local food trucks, and scenic coastal drives
Please Note
Renovation Update
The building is currently undergoing repiping work, which affects all ground-floor units. This may temporarily impact some ocean views, and the pool area is closed during construction (weekdays, 8:30 am–5:00 pm).
To reflect this, we’ve deeply discounted our nightly rate through the end of the year. Guests still enjoy direct beachfront access, walk-out convenience, and all the comforts of a well-equipped condo. If you’re out exploring the island or spending your days at the beach, this work may not affect you as much, and most visitors find it has little impact on their stay.
Why You’ll Love It
This isn’t a luxury resort with spas—it’s a true beachfront condo with all the comforts of home, designed for travelers seeking peace, authenticity, and connection to the ocean. Come experience “No Worries” island living at its best.

Wonderful piece of paradise

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.

Fabulous place off the beaten path

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.

Unmatched scenery

If you are looking to get out of the touristy Waikiki I highly recommend this place. It came with everything you need to have a fun couple days on the beach and a nice deck to escape the sun. This is a more “country” part of the island so don’t expect a perfect resort. But it was clean and cozy. I would definitely come back.

Great beach just steps away from condo

I would stay again. Very casual and equipped with snorkeling gear. Definetely could use simple blackout curtains for the person who sleeps on the daybed or expect to be up at 6am. The one bedroom is great and big and dark but we had to switch off who got the bright room and up with the rooster! With black out curtains - I give it a 9, otherwise still a 8!

Fantastic

The property is very close to the beach where turtles sun bathe every morning. We also saw a monk seal playing in the water, and we were only there 2 nights. The ocean was very calm and crystal clear. There is a box with snorkel gear on the porch, plenty of beach towels and beach umbrellas. The kitchen is stocked with pantry basics and much more compared to many rentals I have stayed in.

Nice private beach. Bring food not much close by to eat. Get up early see the sunrise and walk about 75 feet out your back door to the beach. The turtles come up and night and sleep on the beach. Unit is in nice condition. Building is being renovated.
