RECENT REVIEWS (2024/2025):
"The beach house is in a wonderful, private spot right on the beach - the location is a treasure both to experience a "real" version of Oahu and have such immediate, private access to the beach. Listening to the waves at night meant we could leave our sound machines off. And we loved using the location as a jumping off point to explore the whole north shore and down south to Kailua. "
"We are pretty big vacationers, and across many years of marriage and having kids and working, we have always done big vacations. None of them top this place. The sunrise view every morning while waking up with the roosters is absolutely to die for. The beach is gorgeous, relatively private, and the windward breeze keeps the home cool at night and pretty dang decent through the daytime too. The place was stocked just perfectly. She has the things you need, and it is clean and clearly managed with pride, that's the best way to put it. She is really responsive and helpful, the neighbors were all friendly and nice. The very best part, this is real Hawaii. When you go get your coffee and breakfast in the morning, it will be with the locals, and they take great pride in their culture, and it is a blast to sink in and experience that culture. I cannot recommend a stay here with any higher confidence in saying you will absolutely love it."
"If you're looking for a peaceful, safe, private location with an amazing beach and neighborhood this is the place for you. The modest, comfortable accommodations meet all of your needs. If you want to relax, cook your own food and live life at your own pace, away from the hustle and bustle of resorts, this is the place to be. There is a private backyard, an amazing view from the kitchen window, the sounds of the surf 24/7, and turtles bobbing in the sea. We loved it and will be back!"
"Our most relaxing vacation! We loved being right on the beach in Laie and could snorkel every day. We saw 13 turtles in a total of about 2 hours of snorkeling right in front of the property. The house was very clean and it was easy to find things. There were extra products that came in handy, like body wash and aloe :) We walked to eat at seven brothers and get food from Foodland. We also cooked food at the house and watched shows in the evenings. The fans and shade from trees kept the area cool, so we didn't overheat. And that's coming from two people who live in Alaska!"
