Beautiful beach front getaway
We stayed here three nights! It was a perfect stay. We enjoyed going to the beach daily and saw sea turtles every morning! The sea turtles like to swim within the vicinity! Beautiful morning views and sound of waves was perfect! Thank you for a wonderful stay!

This place is in a perfect location, right on the beach and close to Jurassic park ranch. The place itself is a little outdated and needs some renovation in my opinion. Everything else was great.

This place is not for everyone. The positives: 1. The view from the unit is amazing. 2. The ocean breeze at night and the sound of the waves were excellent. 3. Having the beach so close was great. 4. The unit itself was clean. It had everything you needed The negatives: 1. The building and unit are old and not kept up. Other reviews give specifics. 2. There was loud construction which according to prior reviews has been going on for years. 3. It is very hot without AC. 4. The big windows allow guests in the units next to you to see everything you are doing. If you close curtains for privacy then you get very hot! 5. It was VERY noisy! With windows open you hear noise from surrounding units 6. Jacqui was passive aggressive. I sent a message about the lack of privacy, the heat and bright outdoor lights that were shining into the bedroom window. She sent a response saying that we were the first guests in 15 years who complained--we read prior reviews about privacy so we weren't. She then showed up at the Unit at 9am unannounced, and when i asked about the outside lights shining in the bedroom she said they cant be turned off for security and are only on 7pm til 7am. This also was not true...They were on 24/7 until another guest complained then they were out 24/7. She offered black out curtains and another fan but that wouldn't help. If you are fine with a run-down noisy very hot beach house right on the beach with amazing views and a nice ocean breeze then you will love it.

Wonderful, relaxing, best place on Oahu!
We were lucky enough to stay in this exceptionally clean, very nicely decorated and amazingly located condo for 4 nights in August 2024. From the view, the basically private beach to the turtles who appear in the evening and leave at sunrise, the trip could not have been better!! We were not interested in the hustle and bustle of Waikiki. We wanted to be able to go there but not stay there and we are so grateful we made that decision and we’re lucky enough to stay here..

Lovely Getaway
We enjoyed staying in this cottage! It’s cozy and right on the beach. If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of Waikiki, this is a great option. It’s on the second level of the cottage, great ocean breeze, and we truly enjoyed seeing the sea turtles come up on the beach during the day to sun and at night to sleep. It’s a bit of a drive if you’re wanting to do anything in the Waikiki area, but if you’re interested in the North Shore, Polynesian Cultural center, Waimea Falls, Kailua, etc this is a great location. There is a grocery store nearby, and the cottage had pots, pans, dishes, etc you’re interested in cooking some of your meals there. Laundry supplies were provided for the shared laundry space. The only negative was the cramped parking spot. It is a challenge to park if you have a full size rental or larger. We would stay here again if we visit the island in the future.

Seaside surprise
We were a little apprehensive when we first pulled into our assigned parking space, but once we got inside, we were pleasantly surprised at how really lovely it was. Wonderful seaside decor, very clean and comfortable with everything you would need to enjoy the beach right outside your window. The breeze and the sound of the ocean while resting in bed was perfect after a long day of adventure. Mahalo

Perfection
What a dream location! It was our first trip to Hawaii. There’s no better place stay! The location is ideal, if you want to stay in the peace and quiet of the North Shore. The Hukilau Marketplace is less than 10 minutes down the road with some great food trucks. The beach is beautiful and quiet. Often we had the beach to ourselves! The best part is falling asleep to the crashing waves and the breeze of the cool trade winds.

4 nights right on the beach!!!
My husband and I stayed here for four night at the very start of our two weeks on the Hawaiian islands for our 30th anniversary! It was shabby chic! Small, simple and very cozy, we had everything we needed! The best part was listening to the waves at night and getting up really early to see the sunrise and watch the turtles make their way back to the sea from the under the bushes where they slept at the edge of the beach! Such a beautiful spot! The manager gave us very detailed instructions so check in and out was easy! Thank you Terry!!!

25th Anniversary
I wanted to take my wife to Hawaii for our 25th anniversary. I used to live on the island when I was a kid, this was my first time back. We stayed for two weeks and visited many great sites. We loved seeing turtles on the beach every day and night. The unit was well maintained although I would suggest making the front door jam stronger.All in all we had a spectacular trip. Would definitely recommend!!

On the Beach
This property was right on the beach. Our front window overlooked the ocean. The beach is protected by the reef and we snorkeled, watch the turtles swim, and walked along the beach. Great location. The property had all of the amenities that we needed. We ate at the local restaurants and came back with tons of leftovers to heat up for the next day. The nice kitchen was available if we needed to cook more. We loved listening to the distant waves crash on the reef to fall asleep to. The host was always available to answer and questions. Overall, great location and relaxing stay.

Wonderful location. Building needs update.
The property is nice, but under a lot of construction. Nothing that was disturbing or anything, just lots of potholes in the parking lot, scaffolding around the parking space making it a tight squeeze when coming and going. The beach is breathtaking and amazing to walk on. The sea turtles come up at night which was really awesome to see. The interior of the room was the biggest issue. Bed was uncomfortable. There were ants that we were constantly squishing. The fan above the bed malfunctioned a few times. The TV turned itself on and off which was weird. The bathroom is dark, and the door doesn't close all the way. The liquid hand soap in the vanity area was watered down instead of just being replaced. We washed our hands with Dawn dish soap mostly. We had to buy toilet paper and paper towels when we ran out. It just didn't seem very well cared for, and the pictures make it look nicer than it is.

It was ok
An update on the interior I.e. fresh paint, comfortable furniture would be nice I.e. two futons instead of two beds. The futons would be nice to have a comfortable place to sit and watch the ocean waves. Due to construction on the adjacent building prevented the pool to be open throughout the day. Seeing the turtles on the morning beach was spectacular.

This was a perfect place to get away from the crowds and relax and really enjoy Oahu. We saw sea turtles swimming in the ocean from the views of our cottage and then went out every evening to watch them come ashore for sleeping. The cottage was very clean and comfortable. We will definitely stay here again!
