Great property, in good neighborhood. Have to travel through a pretty rough neighborhood to get there, though. House was spacious and well equipped.

Everything was great! Joe took various extra steps to make our stay perfect. Added welcome gifts and such. In addition, he included all our needs for a great week including all we could imagine for going to the beach (chairs, umbrellas, snorkels, surf/paddle/body boards, etc and all house needs (toliertries, kitchen equipment, laundry, diswasher soaps, etc). Above and beyond!

Beautiful home with everything you need and more!

The home is beautiful and spacious. The beds are soooo comfortable. Loved all the extras like surfboards, boogie boards, beach chairs and snorkels and more. The beach is less than 2 miles away. We spent most of our time exploring the island but enjoyed having coffee in the back yard watching the sun come up. We didn’t realize that we couldn’t drive straight to the East side or north shore from the property, instead you have to drive south quite a ways to get around the mountains. Wish we had more time there. It was great! Our party of 6 loved it.

Aloha Deb, mahalo nui for your thoughtful review! We’re so glad your group loved the spacious home, comfortable beds, beach gear, and peaceful mornings in the backyard. Mākaha Valley is tucked into a beautiful part of the island, so guests do need to plan drive time when exploring the East Side or North Shore, but we’re happy the home was a great base for your Oʻahu trip. We would love to host you again anytime. 🌴☕

Perfect local staycation

This. Place. Is. Awesome! --- As a local, I’m always looking for family-friendly spots for a staycation with my loved ones, and this place was a hidden gem right in my backyard! The house was not only spacious and spotless but also fully equipped with everything we needed for a perfect beach day—snorkel gear, surfboards, a paddleboard, and comfy beach chairs. The kids had so much fun, and it was great to enjoy this side of the island in such comfort. Joe was an amazing host, super friendly, communicative and quick to help with anything we needed. It’s clear he puts a lot of heart into making his home a place welcoming for families. Supporting a local home like Joe’s is so important to me, and I’m glad we chose to stay here. If you’re looking for a place that’s perfect for families, with all the amenities, this is it!
