Amazing Getaway

We can't wait to come back! The cottage is petite and lovely, with ocean views and a lanai that is just steps from the water. The kitchen had everything we needed. Our host, Terrie, was proactive about communicating with us regarding some construction happening during our stay on an adjacent building, which we sincerely appreciated. Terrie also checked in with us during our visit to make sure we had everything we needed. We'd absolutely recommend this little oasis to friends and family, and we can't wait to return!

Perfect Hawaiian get-away

The cottage delivers … it offers premium location (10 steps to the beach); a lanai to enjoy the views day and night; easy trips to the local food truck scene and the Polynesian Cultural Center. Drive a little further north, you’ll be at Dole Plantation and the Banzai Pipeline to watch surfing. Honolulu is only an hour south. We’ll definitely be back - one our best vacations !!

The location directly on the beach could not be better! The lanai is beautiful and it was so peaceful to relax while listening to the ocean waves. The cottage was well equipped and comfortable. We would stay again!

Paradise on Oahu

Couldn't ask for anything else for this little GEM on Oahu. It is great to get away from the hussle of Waikiki and enjoy the North Shore. This little bungalow is right on the beach! Perfect romantic place for a simple get away!

Relaxing in Paradise

Charming rustic cottage with a lovely lanai looking directly out to the ocean; perfect for relaxing or sharing a meal while enjoying gentle tradewinds. We fell asleep each night to the sounds of the waves coming into shore and woke to spectacular sunrises. Our host answered our questions quickly and offered great suggestions to make our stay even more special. Many thanks and we look forward to returning.

Beach relax

Loved this cottage! Literally steps from the water, nice lanai on ground floor looking out over the ocean. Only down side was Construction ongoing on the grounds and slightly cramped parking, but once that is cleaned up this place would be literally perfect for a nice quiet relaxing stay on the beach, away from the hustle and bustle of Waikiki.

Peaceful place

If you love falling to sleep with the sound of the ocean, if you love waking to the sound of the ocean, if you love seeing ocean sunrises and walking along on an uncrowded beach, right outside your door, then this is the place for you. Situated near the North Shore and away from the bustle of Honolulu you'll go home wishing you could stay forever!

Great location

The best part of this place was its lanai and ocean front location. Appreciated all the beach equipment. We also saw sea turtles on the beach daily at dusk. From 1-19 max one day. The cottage is a set of 3 with 4 units each and part of a high rise condo complex in need of and in process of restoration. Hence the scaffolding and noisy work right behind the cottage that prevented enjoying its location during the day. (Terrie did inform us of street side work when we made the reservation and updated us that the work had moved to the backside of the cottage but unfortunately it was too late to cancel.) The interior is worn and could use a good cleaning and editing of accumulated stuff. The presumably older photos make it appear better than the reality. The exterior cottage photo is of the other 2 cottages.
