North Shore Tropical Studio with breathtaking mountain views!

This beautiful studio apartment with stunning mountain views is a perfect place to unwind for your North Shore get-away. The studio features a queen bed with additional twin bed, and it sleeps up to 3 people. There is air conditioning which you are welcome to use to keep cool while you are enjoying the unit. The studio is equipped with a full bathroom, kitchenette (no stove, but there is a hot plate), spacious patio deck, access to washer/dryer, and is situated on a gated estate with lots of tropical fruit! Close to Haleiwa town, Waialua & Mokuleia beaches, hikes, and all the North Shore has to offer.

You can pick delicious fresh fruit straight from the organic farm orchards on the property - mangos, papayas, guavas, avocados, lychee, dragonfruit, oranges, grapefruit, apples, dragoneye, bananas, macadamia nuts - depending what's in season when you visit. There is a beautiful beach with a few amazing surf breaks right down the street! It's about 2.5 blocks to the ocean, about a 10 minute walk! Rinse off in one of our hot outdoor showers under the sunset sky when you come home from the beach as the moon and stars come out for the night.

Property is located in a country neighborhood with typical pet and country animal noises (roosters, dogs, etc.) There are dogs on property in a gated area. The tenants who live on property will allow them to run freely through the yard for exercise two or three times per day then bring them up to their house each evening. There is a gate with a padlock that you will need to put a code into and then manually push a gate open and close behind you every time you enter and exit the property.

This is a quiet country setting, so expect to hear typical country sounds like dogs, roosters, people & road noise. You can hear big waves crashing in winter during high surf season. You will occasionally hear EMS vehicle sirens if they are driving by in response to emergencies and the once-monthly testing of sirens at 11:45am on the 1st business day of the month. The neighborhood dogs howl at the sirens. A few times per year, people in the neighborhood light off fireworks at night.

Long-term tenants and other rentals on property. Please do not bring animals to this property. There is a dog on property who loves people but does not like other dogs. For everyone's safety, please do not bring animals to this property! Our cleaner also uses essential oils for cleaning the inside of the unit which are safe for human beings of all ages, but these essential oils are known to be toxic and fatal to dogs. This is not a safe environment for ANY animals to stay at.

Please do not attempt to charge electric vehicles at this property. This is an older home, and the electric system is not wired to be able to accommodate EV charging. EV charging requires it be the only thing charging in that circuit. If you attempt to charge an electric vehicle here, you will be putting your lives, as well as the lives of all our other tenants at risk. We thank you in advance for not putting lives at risk by starting explosions or electrical fires due to attempting UNSAFE EV charging here. There is a SAFE EV charging station 3 miles away in Hale'iwa town near Stonefish restaurant.

Wonderful Stay

We loved this VRBO just 10-15 minutes away from Waimea beach. Our last 2 days of our honeymoon were spent exploring the north shore. The host went above and beyond, leaving a personalized card and gift to welcome us into this vacation rental. Wonderful stay, highly recommended!

Cozy studio in the country

Lovely upstairs studio that looks like it’s been recently renovated. It has everything you need for your stay. The bed was comfortable and the kitchenette was well set up. The sunrise from the room and balcony was breathtaking. It is a multiple unit property. A couple of other residents have big dogs that were well managed but good to know that it’s communal living. The only challenge was having lock and unlock the entry gate. It is a short drive to Haleiwa and its quaint shopping and dining spots.

Peaceful and quiet.

Very well kept property with parking right next to the front door. I was concerned about the dog and rooster noise mentioned in prior reviews, turns out there was nothing to be worried about. Once the dogs get to know you the barking is extremely minimal. Can’t recommend this property enough.

Quiet

We loved the quiet of this location and the north shore. The nearby town of Haleiwa was adorable. We love the beaches and food trucks of this area. The roosters were talkative in the morning but we learned to love them.

Perfect property, beautiful, quiet and everything you need for a nice vacation.

I am from Hawaii, the North Shore of Oahu, and had recently sold my house. I had family in town and needed a bigger place for them to stay, It was an absolutely perfect beautiful space, all the amenities you need for a comfortable stay, quiet, a close walk to the beach, and a beautiful property. I will definitely be staying there again in the future.

It was fine.

I wasn’t prepared for a compound or getting out to unlock and lock padlock for gate each time we left. I knew people lived in the house on main level, but wasn’t aware of other buildings.I knew there were dogs, but barked at us coming and going. The stay was fine, but not what I was expecting.

Mokuleia

We enjoyed the mountain view space very much. It’s in a real community of the north shore and your accomodation dollar is supporting genuine local people. We found it handy to the Halieva food trucks and the beaches are awesome. You will need a rental car though. The space is comfortable and good value.

Fantastic studio in a quieter area

We had a great time staying here! The property is nice and big, and there will likely be residents around in the other parts of the house. However the studio is on the 2nd floor and feels nice and private, plus has gorgeous views from the windows. The bathroom was nice and clean and the mini kitchen is nice for coffee/tea/storing leftovers/etc. Would definitely recommend this unit for anyone looking for a nice, quiet and beautiful location for 1-2 people :)
