Om boendet

Kronjuvelen i Kawela Bay! Endast 30 nätter kvar. Inga undantag.

Vårt hem, Hale Keo Keo byggdes 1910, och är ett charmigt historiskt hem, på den berömda North Shore of Oahu, Hawaii. Vår fastighet, med två separata hus, ligger precis vid stranden, på den privata och vackra Kawela Bay, 1 mil från Turtle Bay Resort. Vårt hem är tillgängligt i minst 30 dagar, utan undantag.
Fastigheten är pittoreska och charmiga, men kan också sova upp till 18 personer eftersom det finns två hus och en separat ansluten studiolägenhet ... så det fungerar bra för familjer.
Skatt-ID # W0548 1389-01
Detta älsklingshem, byggt för över 100 år sedan, är kronjuvelen i Kawela Bay, eftersom det sitter mitt i den vackra halvmålsstranden.

Kawela Bay är lugnt, även under vintermånaderna, eftersom det finns ett skyddande rev vid ingången till viken. Vi har också en trevlig surfavbrott utanför viken som är perfekt för kajakpaddling, paddling och surfing. Dock är själva viken underbart lugn och säker för barn.

Fastigheten består av två bostäder och ett separat studioutrymme för din användning. Det är perfekt för släktträffar, eftersom det kommer att sova många människor. Mysig och söt, du kommer att känna dig som hemma i paradiset. Och en gång genom portarna i detta privata samhälle, kommer du att lämna världen bakom dig och känna dig nedsänkt i färgerna på det turkosa vattnet och babyblå himmel. De stora havssköldpaddorna kommer på sanden varje nite för att sova precis framför huset. Ja, det är paradiset!

Den ursprungliga stugan är pittoreska och charmiga. Detta hem är den typ av hem som är en skatt, och vi känner oss välsignade varje morgon när vi ser solen stiga upp från våra sovrumsfönster och när vi går ut på ytterdäcket för att hälsa dagen.

Huvudstugan har ett sovrum med en king size-säng, ett sovrum med två enkelsängar.

Cirka 30 meter från det ursprungliga huset ligger en annan stuga. Detta byggdes för våra barn och barnbarn, för när de kommer på besök. Denna stuga har 5 sovrum, 3 badrum. Stugan på övervåningen är där min konststudio ligger och inkluderar mitt stora konstbord, perfekt att sitta och spela spel. Denna bostadsyta är möblerad med en soffa, stolar, en tv och ett litet kylskåp och mikrovågsugn. Det finns inte ett komplett kök .... ingen spis eller ugn. Denna stuga är en fantastisk plats för människor att sova och för barn att leka. När våra familjer besöker har vi alltid våra måltider tillsammans i huvudhuset.

Nedanför huvudhuset finns ett bostadsområde som vi kallar "Surfer's Unit". Den har en queen size-säng, vardagsrumsdel, kök, toalett, dagssäng och en utomhus varm & kall dusch.

Kawela Bay är en privat gated community. North Shore anses vara "land" och på din bilresa till vårt hem passerar du svarta och vita kor och får. När du kommer in i grinden vid Kawela Bay, kommer du att svänga ner en landsväg och du kommer att börja känna att du har gått tillbaka i tiden. Som om du kommer hem.

Kawela Bay är en perfekt bukt som du någonsin skulle önska dig! Den är 1/2 mil lång, i en vacker halvmåneform. Viken är säker för bad, året runt (även under den stora bränningen på vintern) eftersom den är skyddad av ett rev. Du kan sväva på flottar och kommunicera med havssköldpaddorna som kallar vår bukt deras hem.
Denna vik är en perfekt plats att paddla ombord. Vi har två kajaker för din användning och massor av solstolar och handdukar. Gå bara ner för trappan så är du på sanden!

Det finns en fantastisk skog av banyanträd precis vid stranden från huset som erbjuder en vacker promenad till Turtle Bay Resort, om du vill äta frukost, lunch eller middag där och titta på solnedgången medan surfare rider på vågorna ... eller spela golf på deras berömda golfbana. Många filmer filmas här. Den senaste var The Hunger Games.

Det är inte nödvändigt att lämna Kawela Bay någonsin, och du kommer att upptäcka att omvärlden bara försvinner när du är här, och att det bara finns skönhet och harmoni.

Kawela Bay ligger på den avslappnade norra stranden av Oahu, mellan famouns Sunset Beach och Turtle Bay Resort. Kawela Bay erbjuder lugnt turkosvatten, perfekt för snorkling och dykning, och den enda vita sandstranden på North Shore som är öppen året runt för bad och solbad. Många anser att det är North Shore bästa strand, och den användes för filmen "The Hunger Games" och "Magnum P. I." TV serie. Kawela Bay är också hem för många gigantiska havssköldpaddor. Du kan gå stranden hela vägen till Turtle Bay, eller köra till Sunset Beach för att titta på surfarna. Hela norra kusten ger massor av "gammal Hawaii" smak, men erbjuder också shopping och god mat. Andra fritidsaktiviteter i området inkluderar golf, vandring, cykling, ridning, vindsurfing och segling. Haleiwa Town ligger bara 20 minuters bilresa från Kawela, och Honolulu ligger ungefär 48 mil bort.
Om du har några frågor, skicka mig ett e-postmeddelande så skickar vi gärna fler bilder.
Irma Jimenez är vår på Island manager och kommer att vara där för att hälsa dig vid din ankomst.
Fram till dess skickar vi dig söta aloha-vindar.
Mahalo!

THE CROWN JEWEL OF KAWELA BAY

THIS BEAUTIFUL PROPERTY HAS EVERYTHING! THE HOUSE HAS SO MUCH CHARM. YOU WILL LOVE THE SPACIOUS ROOMS AND THE LARGE WINDOWS WITH OCEAN VIEWS. IT IS COZY AND COMFORTABLE WITH ALL THE MODERN CONVENIENCES. THE HOUSE IS LOCATED ON THE VERY BEST BEACH; A BEACH THAT IS PERFECT FOR EVERYONE, FROM TODDLERS TO ADULT ATHLETES. OUR FAMILY ESPECIALLY LOVED THE HUGE TURTLES THAT COME UP ON THE BEACH AT NIGHT. THERE ARE NEARBY MARKETS, FRUIT STANDS AND PLACES TO EAT, AS WELL AS GREAT GOLF, SNORKELING, SURFING, KAYAKING, PADDLE BOARDING ETC. THIS IS A WONDERFUL PROPERTY! WE HOPE TO RETURN ONE DAY AND HAVE RECOMMENDED THIS HOUSE TO ALL OUR FRIENDS.

Paradise!

Marilyn and Gary, we had a wonderful time at your place. It is the best for all the little ones we had with us. Over the time we stayed we had 5 of our six children and their families come and stay with us. It is so great to let them play on the beach and in the water without worrying about them getting knocked over by the surf. The house and cabin are just the best. They are so accommodating for our group. Marilyn, Jan and I had more time this trip to appreciate all your art work. It is amazing and we were even able to make it thru the month without any of the little ones breaking any of it. We love the North Shore. For us it is so nice to be so close to the PCC and the temple in Laie and be away from the crowds of the other parts of the island. We were able to attend church in Kahuku and feel the Aloha spirit of a different culture even though the church is the same as everywhere in the world. The Family is already talking about coming back but it will be at least two years before we are willing to consider it – it is a large expenditure when we pay for everything. It was sure worth it. Thanks Morgan and Jan Lynch

An gem on Kawela Bay

This was a vacation to celebrate my significant birthday year with our 3 married children their spouses and our 5 grandchildren. The 2 houses were perfect for 13 people. The location could not have been better...right on the ocean that provided swimming, paddle boarding and kayaking. Our families had the opportunity to further bond with each other creating memories that will last a lifetime. Kawela Bay ,a private protected location on the north shore was close to world surfing competitions and the wooded walk to the Turtle Bay resort and the historic banyan tree. We were also fortunate to witness the filming of the television series Hawaii -Five - O.

Best Family Christmas Ever! Amazing property!

Our family flew in from all across Canada to spend a truly unforgettable Christmas here in 2014. We have stayed in many lovely VRBO's all over the world and this has to have been one of the best! Highlights: - Right on the beach - Old Hawaiian charm mixed with Marilyn (the owner's) personal art and antiques - Modern kitchen - Lots of water toys to use - Very private and safe (in gated area) -Marilyn and her housekeeper Irma were amazing to deal with. - Close to Turtle Bay resort for restaurants etc. - Morning jogs east to the resort along their paths and the beach - amazing! Don't wait to book this gem, we can't wait to go back one day!

Possibly the best (and most unique) place to stay on the North Shore

After a lot of searching for a vacation place, we stumbled across the Crown Jewel of Kawela Bay. It seemed almost too good to be true -- a big home on a private bay, decked out with everything we needed to have fun. So much so, in fact, that a few in our party breathed a sigh of relief when we showed up and it was real... and even better than we imagined. The house is beautiful and easily slept 11 adults + 3 children at our peak occupancy. Although the house itself is old and has lots of characters, its fitted with modern appliances and comforts that make it almost too easy to stay there. A far stretch from the camping we used to do! But the best part of this place is truly the location. Kawela Bay is very unique on the North Shore. While most beaches are getting pounded by waves during peak seasons, the beaches of Kawela Bay remain calm enough for snorkeling, standup paddle boarding, and kayaking. It's so calm that every morning you'll see some folks from Turtle Bay coming over to Kawela Bay, because their own bay is too rough for beginners. When want to leave the gentle waves of the beach and surf, though, you just paddle to the back left (or right, if you prefer) of the bay and can catch some very consistent, non-intimidating waves for beginners to sharpen their skills and intermediates to have some fun. Want something bigger? Just paddle out a bit more and you'll catch some great waves breaking on days with a bigger swell. I could go on for a long time about what we liked, but I'm going to stop. Instead, to provide some balance, I'll offer a few criticisms: (1) I had to do some work on my computer when I first got their, but it was hard to do because the view from inside the dining room is too distracting, (2) Sometimes a big wave would wake me up in the master bedroom, and (3) I ate too much because I love BBQ food and the BBQ was awesome.

Dreams Came True

My wife and I wanted our family of 15, which includes 7 grandchildren ranging from 5 to 15 years old, to participate in a family trip that all would create great memories for the rest of their lives. Let me tell you, our plan was a great success! This beautiful home was amazing and it supplied us with everything we could ever need. There was more than enough space for all of us and we were all able to make it our home for the 9 days we spent there. Just as the other reviewers have mentioned, the home and grounds are absolutely beautiful! We mostly enjoyed how convenient and fun it was to be just a few steps from the bay. The bay is a perfect place for the kids to enjoy just about any water sport they wanted to participate in. It was a comfort to all the adults to be able to watch the kids from the beach or balcony. The kids were always in the water until dark. Irma is absolutely one of the nicest and most patient persons we have ever met. We have a special needs 5 year old grandson who can eat only certain foods and needed to get access to the refrigerator before the house was ready for us. She went out of the way to greet us early in the day as they were cleaning and allowed us to supply the refrigerator and spend time at the beach while they finished in the home. Near the end of our vacation our 12 year old granddaughter had to have her appendix taken out. She spent the last 3 days on the couch watching t.v.. Irma came over and greeted her with a card and gift. Boy, did that make her day! Thank you for everything Irma. Marilyn, the owner is absolutely correct when she says, "Kawela Bay is magical". She goes out of her way to keep you informed of the many things to experience in the area. As she mentioned, the Polynesian Cultural Center is a must see and all of us enjoyed it immensely. Kawela Bay truly is "magical" because my wife and I saw the "magic" in our families eyes the entire stay. Everyone was to the point of tears for the soul reason of having to end our wonderful vacation at such a beautiful property. We could not have asked for anything more to make our trip a dream come true. A very special mahalo from all of us to Marilyn and Irma.

Paradise

My family and I had the pleasure of staying in Kawela Bay for 10 amazing nights in June. We have been to Oahu many times, my husband and I were actually married there. That said, this was by far our favorite vacation! After a long, delayed flight from Denver, we were greeted at the home by Irma and her friendly dog Duke. Irma was so welcoming, we instantly felt like we had known her for years. The home is so beautiful. The pictures do not do it justice. It has a shabby-chic, very homey feel, highlighted with Marilyn's gorgeous artwork. It is equipped with ABSOLUTELY everything you would possibly need. The garden and yard surrounding the home are beautiful as well. While lounging in the chairs or hammock in the grass, you feel so peacefully secluded, surrounded by trees and flowers and taking in the gorgeous turquoise water. We even enjoyed fresh mangoes from the tree out front. On our first morning, we were up before the sun. It was dark when we arrived to the home the night before, so we were anxious to see the bay. We were greeted at sunrise by a giant sea turtle, right in front of the home. This turned out to be a daily occurrence. The turtles rest on the beach daily, and we always spotted them swimming in the bay. This was such a special experience for all of us, but especially my 3 young daughters. There are endless activities to do at the house. We swam, snorkeled, paddle-boarded, kayaked, and fished everyday directly in front of the home. My little girls and I collected sea glass and shells every morning. We walked/hiked through the forest a few times, to the WWII pillbox and almost to Turtle Bay Resort. We even stumbled across a major movie being filmed in the forest one day. Kinda neat! We did venture away from Kawela Bay a few times to explore the island, however, we quickly discovered how good we had it at the bay, and most days, never left. (Unless it was to go to Giovanni's Shrimp Truck of coarse) :) Marilyn was a pleasure working with through the entire process. It was nice knowing Irma was just a call away if we needed anything. It was very difficult to leave. We will, no doubt, return to Kawela Bay soon. I can probably go on forever about the amazing time we had while staying at this home, but I'm not sure I want too many people to visit. ;) A big mahalo to Marilyn for giving us the opportunity to experience Kawela Bay.

Dreams really do come true

We meet the owners on this magnificent property a few years back while visiting Kawela Bay. They were kind enough to show us around their home and shared with us that it was available for rent. That go the wheels turning. After one solid year of planning, we spent the month of January 2015. It was beyond our expectations. The property just can't be beat! EVERYTHING we needed was provided for us. We had several amazing cooks and took full advantage of the kitchen. The main house was fully utilized from early morning coffee in the living room, meal preparations in the kitchen, evening hors d'oeuvres on the deck or side yard and then dinners to die for in the dining room which overlooks the entire Kawela Bay. We utilized everything from the glass bottom kayaks to the art center in the guest house. The guesthouse accommodated the rest of our party and it meet all needs. My personal goal was to completely sink into the north shore vibe. I didn't have a need to go go go! Entertainment consisted of some tennis at nearby Turtle Bay, occasional trip to Haleiwa and spending a lot of time at the "Pipe" watching the world class surfers. All of these things are easily accessible from this property. At the property itself, sitting on the beach, snorkeling, kayaking and just relaxing filled many days. We had artists and musicians with us so the piano got used on several occasions as well as the art studio in the guest house. We even had our own Kawela Bay art exhibit! With a total of 11 adults, it was perfect. There are so many places on the property itself to drift off to by yourself or come together as a group. The owners are more than accommodating and the lady that more or less oversees the property while your there is terrific. I could go on and on but the bottom line is, this was just the best. Mahalo!

Wow! We don't know how our Oahu experience could have been better. The property and the owners were perfect to work with. We would (will) go back to this property again. It adequately handled our combined family group of 14. The property has amazing charm. If you want a perfect North Shore experience, we recommend this property.

Thank you, Clark. :) We're always so pleased to share the magic of Kawela Bay. We feel our home is very special and it is an honor to share it with others who respond to it's charm. Thank you for allowing us to be, in some small way, a part of your memories. Sending sweet aloha, Marilyn

Perfect place for a family retreat

Our family had a wonderful week here at this place last week. Our kids really enjoyed swiming and kayaking. And this is a prime spot to watch the July 4th fireworks from Turtle Bay resorts! An amazing place for vacationing in Oahu.

Our first holiday trip together!

As children, my brothers and I were treated to a hawaiian vacation with our parents by our grandparents. After that, my parents were huge hawaii fans and made several trips to the islands after we kids started families of our own. We lost our father 11 years ago and unfortunately, lost our mother one year ago. It was my mother's wish that we travel to Hawaii as a family again. Due to busy lives, it did not happen before her death last year. I thought, what a great tribute to our parents, especially to honor our mother's wish, that we should plan this vacation. My brothers and their families were quick to agree. We had the privilage of renting the perfect property for this vacation beginning Christmas Day 2011 through New Year's Day 2012. The beautiful, peaceful surroundings of Kawela Bay are an absolute slice of heaven! With 14 in our family, there was plenty of sleeping space as well as common space for us to gather and share meals and be together. There were kayaks, paddle boards, masks and fins for us to explore the bay as well as hammocks to enjoy an energizing nap. If you want to visit the hustle and bustle of the city it was just a short drive away from the tranquility of this property. We would not hesitate to recommend this property to everyone traveling to Oahu and would rent this property again in a heartbeat for future visits! Thank you for sharing your piece of heaven with us!!

amazing home

My family had the privilege of staying at this remarkable home over New Year's, 2005. The owner's description is perfect. The house and the second house are just what a large family needs. We felt as if we were in our own little paradise, with everything we needed. The owners made us feel so welcome and I sincerely hope that we can plan a trip there again in the near future.

We’re Marilyn and Gary — high school sweethearts, happily married for 56 years. Marilyn is a lifelong artist, and Gary is a green building consultant. We raised our three daughters here at Hale Keo Keo and now have the joy of watching our seven granddaughters grow up with the same salty hair, sandy toes, and magical memories this bay has always offered.

For the past 28 years, this home has been our family’s sanctuary — a place of celebration, creativity, and deep rest. Built in 1910, Hale Keo Keo has weathered storms, watched sea turtles return year after year, and held the laughter of four generations. We’ve preserved it with love, care, and reverence for its history, and it brings us true joy to share it with guests who will appreciate its spirit.

While you’re here, you’ll be greeted not just by ocean breezes and swaying palms — but by our two beloved outdoor kitties, who live on the property and think of themselves as co-hosts. They're friendly, low-maintenance, and deeply loyal to the land. We simply ask that guests keep an eye on their food and water during their stay — a small act of care that helps keep the home feeling warm and alive.

We only open Hale Keo Keo for part of the year, but when we do, it’s our way of extending our family’s aloha. We hope you feel the peace and presence of this home as deeply as we do.

Varför värden valde detta boende

We’ve traveled the world, but nowhere compares to Kawela Bay. It’s rare, quiet, and deeply magical. The moment you pass through the gates, it’s like stepping into a hidden sanctuary — wrapped in turquoise water, whispering palms, and the gentle rhythm of island life. The bay itself is calm year-round, protected by an outer reef, which makes it perfect for paddleboarding, swimming, or just floating and watching the sea turtles nap on the shore.

Just a short walk from the house, through a stunning forest of ancient banyan trees, you’ll find Turtle Bay Resort — where you can enjoy dining, live music, sunset drinks, golf, or a relaxing spa day. But honestly, most of our guests tell us they never want to leave the bay.

What we love most is the feeling this place gives you. The home is colorful and full of stories — from its century-old walls to the art and treasures tucked throughout. It holds history and heart. It’s not fancy in the way a hotel is — it’s better. It’s real. It’s Hawaii. And that’s why so many of our guests return year after year.

Vad som gör detta boende unikt

Hale Keo Keo is truly one of a kind. It’s not just a beachfront home — it’s the only historic home built directly on the sand along the entire North Shore of Oʻahu. That alone makes it incredibly rare. Perched on a seawall constructed by the military in the 1940s, it extends farther out onto the beach than any other property in the region. From the deck, you feel like you’re standing on the bow of a ship, surrounded by the sea.

But the magic goes beyond location. Built in 1910 from ironwood lumber preserved right here in the bay, the home is rich with Hawaiian history. It has served as a WWII bunker, a coastal stop for early train travelers, and a beloved family retreat for generations. Today, it blends its original architectural charm with thoughtful updates — offering a stay that’s both timeless and deeply comfortable.

Guests don’t just visit Hale Keo Keo — they step into a living piece of Hawaiʻi’s past. It’s peaceful, soulful, and unlike anywhere else on the island. That’s why so many of our guests return year after year: not just for the beach, but for the feeling of being part of something truly special.
