Trip of a lifetime!!! Mahalo!!

We LOVED our cottage! It was absolutely everything we hoped. Big house, beautiful grounds, awesome kitchen and lanai!! Every bedroom was super spacious with AC!! Slept sooo good! We saw spear fishermen, a seal that came to shore literally on the beach behind our yard, night fishermen, tide pools. We are already planning our next trip to rent out ALL four of the cottages with more friends and family. You can’t do better if you want North Shore laid back Hawai’i vibes. Thank you for an amazing trip!!

A Dream!

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

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was perfect for our trip. Plenty of room, clean and well-stocked. The provided beach towels and boards, umbrella, floats, etc. were great. One of the beach chairs was broken, but there was another one. The shore at this location is rocky but beautiful. No swimming here but tide pools to explore and great beaches within a few minute drive. The yard was great for playing, the trees were beautiful, and the view can't be beat -- especially sunsets. Quick drive to food trucks and grocery store. Would definitely stay here again. We hated to leave.

Fantastic Stay!!

The house and location was perfect for our family’s week long visit! We had 2 seniors, 2 adults and 3 kids. We enjoyed the tide pools on the beach and even got to experience high tide coming in! If you’re looking for a great place to land and spend time relaxing, look no further! Super convenient location to all the tourist stops on the north shore and grocery stores and food trucks! Would love to come again in the coming years!

Another amazing family trip!

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!!

Amazing Views

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!

Cool spot

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!

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!

Great Place to Stay

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.
