NOTE: * The North Shore is one of the best places on Oahu to find untamed Hawaii as nature created it. The flora and fauna native to our ecosystem are a part of its splendor. In addition to the brightly colored tropical fish, on land you can anticipate seeing houseplants the size of houses, wild chickens & roosters roaming around, adorable geckos, tropical birds and the full menagerie of insects that sustain them ... some rare and beautiful (ex. Kamehameha butterflies) and others are decidedly less so. We will always have a clean and well-kept place for you that includes routine pest control, but please be advised that little visitors are not uncommon, esp. if you decide to attract them with unattended food.
* Our inventory of beach & sports gear is constantly changing as things get added or replaced. Such is the nature of outdoor "toys." It will always look similar to what you see pictured but may not be EXACTLY the same. Feel free to inquire about anything specific you've seen in our photos and we'll let you know of any changes.

Overall, this was a very comfortable property for my family of five to stay in. The unit was well equipped, the beds were all very comfortable and the washer and dryer were very convenient to have on property. The rental is conveniently located near several great places for food. Our nearby (drivable) favs were the coffee cove, Hala tree cafe, Rockas shave ice, and tons of food trucks just fifteen minutes up the street (Da Bald Guy is a must!). Our only let down was that the pictures of beach access are very deceiving. The access at the end of the street is not the same location as what’s depicted in the pictures. It is direct ocean access, but there is no beach. There are jagged steps and a giant sewer where the pictures show beach. At first we thought it was due to recent flooding, but when comparing pictures it’s not the same location, so I’m not sure what beach access is pictured in the listing. To get to any beach, we had to drive and unfortunately, the brown water advisories (obviously out of the owners control) did not make it possible for us to swim at nearby beaches during most of our stay. Overall, it is a great unit, but I would just be prepared to do more driving than walking from this location.

We absolutley loved our stay, and enjoyed the hosts so much! They were extremely accomodating and kind. They were very understanding and down to earth while the weather caused a difficult travel situation. Unit was clean when we arrived and stayed dry through island flooding. Amenities were as described. We were so grateful for the great AC, and a huge space to cook meals and watch movies as a familiy. Would recommend to anyone who wants to be close to North Shore but our of the hustle and bustle. Across the street from a post office and Longs, extremely convient location. Thanks for everything!!!!

Nice accommodation for a family. Nice size closets 1.5 bath, washers and dryer, and close to shopping. Beach access within walking distance is not appropriate for young children. We would stay here again. Polynesian Cultural Center is only 5-8 minutes away by car. Host was easy to work with.

The place was cute and we loved having two bathrooms. The location was good, but there was no beach access — this might have been due to the time of year. I wish the listing would have mentioned that during certain times of the year, that you wouldn't have access to the beach, as it's why we picked this certain location. We had little kids with us, and while it worked, it might not be the best setup for families with small children. Our little ones made some noise and ended up annoying the upstairs tenants, but we were out of the rental for the majority of the time. The upstairs tenants were early risers, and seemed to be moving stuff around every once in awhile. Overall wasn't too noisy. Luckily, there were many great beaches within 5 minutes and overall was a great location and a great stay.

Beautiful 1st floor stay
The property is perfect for a place to stay while you visit the rest of the Island. There is not an outdoor space, but we'd rather go to a beach anyways! Upstairs property are pretty quiet neighbors, and the unit itself cooled quickly with all the A/c Units. Beds were comfortable and there were plenty of towels and beach toys!

Booking host terrible, home was as advertised
I did not stay at this listing. I stayed at Makua Sunrise. But, the booking host was terrible. She told us we could rent this property even though we had kids. I got a warning after paying for the property that we had to confirm that we didnt have kids. Instead of refunding me and starting over, she changed something on the backend of this site called Hostably, which ended up costing me over 20 hours of confusion and frustration prior to leaving. She was difficult and i was not able to track ANY of my trip through VRBO even though this is where i paid. It was all through a site I have never heard of and caused a LOT of confusion. I asked if she could match the price of this rental since this was 100% her fault and she refused. The house (Makua Sunrise) was fine, pretty much as advertised. But, I would beware of working with this host Brea.

Home Away from Home
Obviously we loved Hawaii as a whole, but the location and accommodations of this property just made it feel like home. The area is perfect for those who want a more casual local feel rather than a busy city stay. We were able to walk down the street and access the beach or with a 5 minute drive in either direction a beach park. This location allowed us to access the North Shore locations that were on our must see or must do list with ease. The property had everything that was needed to make meals which is why we chose a house over a resort. It also had everything that was needed and then some to head out to the beach every day and feel completely prepared. The property care takers live up stairs and they are super helpful, accommodating and inviting. We could not recommend this property more highly. Book it for your next Oahu stay, you will not regret it.

Short and sweet
Our stay was short but this place is just as described. We enjoyed our time there and found that they had everything we needed. The shower head was awesome. The amount of towels and just everything you could need in a vrbo was fantastic. I do wish the checkin time was earlier being that our checkout time was much earlier than check in but it’s no different than the hotel check in and out times. The close walk to the beach was short of amazing. If you’re ever on this side of Oahu, definitely book here. 5 min away from the PCC and Tamura’s is right down the street. You can’t beat that.

Absolutely Stunning Retreat in Hawaii!
Our stay at this house exceeded all expectations. The location was perfect – just a short walk to the rocky beach where we were lucky enough to spot sea lions basking in the sun twice during low tide. The house itself was immaculately clean and beautifully updated, providing a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere. Being within walking distance to amenities and food made our stay even more convenient. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a dream getaway in Hawaii!

Overall very enjoyable
Pro/Con-The beach at the end of the street is so-so at best, but it is only a <5 min walk north to a great beach area (Kaipapa'U) with bathrooms, shade and good waves. For most people this is an easy walk. But for my elderly dad, he couldn't safely walk from the end of the street up the coast a few minutes to Kaipapa'U, because the access to the beach by the house was more of a rocky, boulder-strewn pier. Instead, I had to drive him from the house about <1 mile up the highway to get him to the beach each day. Not a big deal, but something to keep in mind.
