The beach is so gorgeous and the uncrowded pool is lovely. We went in every day. The place has everything you need to cook your own meals. There is some street noise but not too bad. I use earplugs at night anyway. We hiked the pink pillbox trail and diamond head for incredible views.
Moonlight as seen from the balcony. It is not a touristy area and that’s why we liked it.

Beautiful property, exactly as pictured. Loved watching the sunset every night from the lanai, and swimming in the pool every day. One resident sounded a conch shell most evenings at sunset, very cool. We only encountered a few other people staying there, not crowded at all - which is why we chose to stay here vs. Waikiki. Char was easy to communicate with and provided a nice treats basket. Condo had beach chairs, umbrella, boogie boards and snorkel gear. Only taking off one star because of the road noise - but I'd be happy to stay here again if I had the chance. Aloha.

Great condo and great host! The condo is really clean, fully stocked, beautifully decorated, has very comfortable bed and is right on the beach. The balcony was the most perfect and peaceful spot, looking out over the ocean and listening to the sound of the waves.The salt water pool was fantastic and the sunsets were amazing!

We had the best 2 weeks staying in condo, Serendipity on the Moana, located in the friendly town of Waianae. We enjoyed meals on the lanai, beautiful sunsets, listening to the waves, and a view of the ocean. The Maili Cove community is well maintained. The pool is cleaned every morning. It was never crowded. We cooked meals on the outside grills. We only used the A/C a few nights. Leave the doors open and enjoy the beach breezes. The condo has everything you would need to make your stay memorable. We had amenities that we have not found in other rentals. Not sure we will get an opportunity to return. If we did, we would stay here again. Thanks to Char for being a great host.
