Our large family had an absolutely fabulous time! This is our second stay in this group of homes and there is no place better on the North Shore. The views are immaculate! We saw whales and turtles from the lanai. And the neighborhood chickens and cats are pretty awesome too! We will always come back to this spot!!

This property was absolutely perfect for my family of 8. The house was clean and well stocked. The sleeping arrangements worked out well with two kids, grandparents, parents, and auntie. The best part of the house are the stunning views. The house was close to a swimming and boogie boarding beach. We also loved the distance to the fruit and shave ice stand. The house is close to grocery stores, bakeries, and restaurants. We would rent this house again. Thank you for the amazing vacation!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We couldn't have asked for a more perfect house for our trip. There's plenty of room and the house was stocked with all the necessities for a beach vacation. Close to many shops, food trucks. Just a short walk to a beach with calm waters and a farmers market with fresh produce, shave ice and cold brew. Gorgeous views from the backyard. We could sit on the deck and watch the whales jumping in the distance until the beautiful sunsets every evening. The only thing we were missing was binoculars! The host was fantastic and provided all necessary information well in advance if our trip. Would definitely stay here again!

This house is right on a very accessible beach with a nice grassy area in the back. Lots of places to relax and lounge and enough space for everyone! We also love there are a few houses close together if you’re going in a big group or family. It was nearby most of the food, beaches and excursions we wanted to hit so that was great!

This rental was perfect for my brother & I & our families…4 teenagers (13-17) Everyone had their own bed which is really important!! The outdoor deck is the perfect for hanging out, eating & enjoying the AMAZING view. The kitchen was decently stocked. The location was decent…really close to Turtle Bay…but traffic could be bad heading over to Haleiwa.

We truly loved every moment at this magnificent house right on the water - The house was very clean, spacious, comfortable and kitchen well stocked with the utensils and cooking equipment for the home cooked meals we made! Tide pool beach right out in front with a short walk to a nice little swimming hole ! All in all I would highly recommend this place ! You’ll love it !

We loved our stay at this beach house. The views were amazing and we enjoyed many sunsets out on the deck. The house was very well-stocked for cooking at home. The location was excellent-very close to everything we were looking for in the area, such as Climbworks, Polynesian Cultural Centre, Sunset Beach, Hale’iwa and a great foodland supermarket at Pupulea. I recommend that you bring an eye mask for the main bedroom as it gets very light in the morning, but the view is worth it! We hope to come back one day and we highly recommend this house to others.

We came to the North Shore to celebrate my Mom's 80th Birthday. The property is beautiful - right on the water. We enjoyed the back deck facing the ocean every single day. The property had everything we needed and the location is so covenant. While the home was not the most updated we have stayed in, it was comfortable and and we enjoyed eating inside and out enjoying those views. We had 2 couples and 2 singles and had plenty of room for everyone. Close to Polynesian Cultural Center, 2 grocery stores (note: the one closer to Shark's Cove sells beer, wine, etc...while the other one is in a dry county). We will have wonderful memories of this home and would definitely visit again.

House was everything it was posted to be. Amazing view and beach access! Worked great for my family of 6. No complaints. Few quick tips, try to get there before dark. A bit hard to find if you don't know where you are going. Also beach area right out of house is mostly tidepools. Super cool for exploring, not so great for swimming. And wear water shoes! Swimming may be better during summer months, not sure since we were there during big swell time.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our stay in #3 was the start of our trip of a lifetime. The house was large, clean and the view was perfect - sunrise, rainbows and beautiful blue waves- from the lanai. The north shore wind was excessive one day and caused a little water to get in by a sliding door. Property management was there in 10 minutes to access the issue and once the wind died down we had no further problems. You can’t beat service like that. Our family would definitely stay at this property again.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My daughter decided to get married on the North Shore. A friend recommended we stay here at the beach front houses. The views of the ocean are incredible ! Loved sleeping to the sound of the waves. Walking along the beach, although the area in front of houses is rather rocky. The sunsets were gorgeous. We were able to see whales breaching, from a long distance away but viewable with binoculars. My daughter got married in the property and everyone commented on how wonderful the location was for a beach wedding. Would highly recommend anyone wanting an ocean view to stay here.

This was our first time visiting Oahu. We usually stay in hotel resorts whenever we visit Hawaii/Maui/Kauai but this time we wanted a new experience. We splurged on a beachfront property hoping for an epic experience. Unfortunately a storm prior to our arrival took out the stairs leading to the beach. I was notified by the rental team just as we were driving from the airport! We were told we could go to their neighboring VRBO to access the beach. That access was a set of stairs that were partially made of concrete and wood stairs but that was partially washed away too. This access was definitely not user friendly as the last 2 steps were a drop of over 3 feet each. This made it impossible for us to access the beach. This was quite frusting to say the least to rent a beachfront property with no access. Other than this unfortunate situation the house and the lanai were great.

We stayed 3 nights and enjoyed the magnificent sundowns from the patio, had breakfasts while seeing turtles and even a monk seal right in front of the house. It is only some steps down to the ocean. Check-in was very easy. Shortly before we received a call, if we have all info we need, which we appreciated. The house is generally wonderful. There were only some minor issues that were slightly affecting us. The dishwasher was running, but did not really clean, so we had to wash the dishes by hand. The air condition in the master bedroom was dripping on the patio when we arrived, but after having mentioned that, it was fixed the next day. We did not really need it, since there is a nice breeze through the house when you open all windows. There are very useful fans in the master bedroom (working) and coming up the staircase (which unfortunately did not work during our stay). It's a pity that there are no fans in the 2 bedrooms on the ground floor. But the house and its location is so wonderful, that we would come back when being again on Oahu next time.

Loved the location of the property. Easy to find, located on the beach. Backyard has a great deck and nice grass area with lounges. Down the steps is the beach, which has a small area you can relax in, but most of it it full of lava. Not swimmable, but you can see small crabs and fish and we saw occasional turtles. In the mornings and evenings we sat on the deck and saw the whales going by, splashing as they passed. BBQ was charcoal, so we had to back to the store, which during the day, is a long drive. One downfall is the drive from the property and Haleiwa. It's very congested and takes around 40minutes to go around 10 miles? or less? The property management company is very responsive and came by to replace a blender that was broken immediately. There were an unmanageable amount of flies, which I have never experience on the islands, I have visited over 20 times. Not sure if it was the time of the year or the fact that the house or lanai did not have ceiling fans, which easily deter them. The queen bed in the upstairs bedroom is very squeaky, so that when you turn over it wakes up everyone upstairs. With all of that, I still give it 4 stars as the location was great and the house very nice.

The house itself is located on the beautiful and quiet North Shore. It's on the beach, which was great for checking out the tide pools; my 10 & 12 year olds loved it, and spent hours there. There are chickens and cats roaming around in the yard, it was great to sit back watch them wander around. The patio is great for watching the sunset, but once it's dark, the mosquitos come out with a vengeance! Would be nice if there were some candles or bug deterring plants so that we could use so we could enjoy the patio after dark. When we couldn't be outside, we found that the furniture in the living room was very uncomfortable. It's an outdoor patio set that is being used as indoor furniture. We wanted to sit and hang out together, but just couldn't get comfortable in the living room so we all ended up going to our rooms. The beds are comfortable and the linens were nice/clean. Plenty of pillows. There were also some nice beach towels that were provided to use while were there. The wash and dryer was a nice plus as well. The kitchen was well equipped with a variety of pots, pans, and spices. There were enough dishes and cups for our group of 6. The dishwasher didn't work very well, so we ended up having to wash out dishes by hand. Lots of a counter space and full size fridge. We had a great stay, and if we return to the North Shore of Oahu we could consider staying here again. Thanks!

Our family enjoyed our stay immensely! The location was perfect! Short drive to many must see locations! The view from the house was incredible! We spent lots of time out on the lanai eating together. We loved the wildlife! :) The kitchen was well stocked and there was plenty of room for our family of five, everyone had their own space.The beds were a little hard but Falling asleep to the sound of the ocean made up for that!We would definitely stay here again!Mahalo

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The place is beautiful and the best room is the one upstairs with a view of the ocean. It has a beautifully spacious bathroom with a shower and tub that has a view of the ocean. The AC units in all of the rooms cooled them very well. The loft area with the two twins does an ok job cooling so I'd put children there. It has all the kitchen stuff you will need, plates, cups, glasses, a blender and cooking utensils along with all kinds of pots and pans. The place was very clean and had nice linens and towels. It was a fantastic place to stay. Halwevia was a 10 minute drive and the beaches were maybe a 5 minute drive. We got to see whales breaching from the lani and at Waimea beach we watched the surfers. It was a great time all around.
