Recently Update Home!Quiet Beach Community! Come to the Country & Escape Crowds!

Leave the city behind, escape the crowds! Breath the fresh ocean air from our large ocean view lanai! The home was renovated just a couple years ago and has been well maintained every since. Everything is like new, including furniture and kitchen items.

Leave the hustle and bustle of Honolulu and Waikiki behind you, and come stay in the country, where you will find the "Real Hawaii"! Relax in the clean fresh air on our spacious deck overlooking the ocean where you may spot a whale frolicking in the crystal blue pacific ocean. Listen to the sounds of the soothing surf in the distance to hush you to sleep at night. Enjoy barbequing dinner with your family and friends at the end of your day, and cheers to your fun filled memories that you made that day.

Our home is located in the lovely quaint family oriented neighborhood of Kaaawa, just 1 block away from Swanzy Beach Park. Kaaawa is just a 1 hour drive to Honolulu and Waikiki, and about 45 minutes to all the famous surf spots on the North Shore such as Waimea Bay, Sunset Beach, and Pipeline. The Polynesian Cultural Center is just 10 minutes away.

This is a 30 day (and more) stay vacation rental.

Please feel free to email with any questions.

Very accurate description of the location and property. It really is a two minute walk to the beach. Loved the lanai! Suggestions: clean or replace the shower curtain. Need a bigger kitchen trash can and more trash bags.

Absolutely Amazing!
Our family of four absolutely loved it here. This was our first trip to Hawaii and I'm so glad we chose to stay here on the other side of the island away from Honolulu. It's much less busy with a relaxed island vibe here. We spent the majority of our trip around this area, North Shore and Laie. The distance from Kaaawa was great. The beaches in the area were fantastic. The house was excellent. Super clean and a wonderful view out the back balcony. Being able to watch the amazing sunrises were a bonus. Sandra was so good with communication and gave us some great recommendations for food, beaches, and where we could watch fireworks for the fourth of July. We found ourselves at Ke Iki beach more than any other beach. We hit the Sunrise Shack a few times for a quick breakfast. Laniakea Beach was great to see the turtles and Waimea Bay was beautiful which was also close to Shark's Cove for some great snorkeling. The house is really close to Kualoa Ranch. If you get the Oahu Go City pass, you can take advantage of some great activities there and across the island. For food in the area, Kaya's Kitchen, Waiahole Poi Factory, Seven Brothers and Da Bald Guy will not disappoint. Kono's North Shore, Hale'iwa Beach House, Matsumoto's and Aoki's shave ice were top notch. All-in-all, next time we go back, we will definitely look at staying here again. THANK YOU!!

beach cottage
The property was exactly as described, in a lovely local neighbourhood. The lanai was a perfect place to sit with breakfast in the mornings, with a great ocean breeze. Quiet beaches nearby, with fantastic beaches a short drive away., with a hike in the mountains just behind the property as well. Sandra and her husband were fantastic hosts and I look forward to coming back here again!

We loved this home! The house itself was beautiful and the surrounding area was stunning. Sandra was an excellent host and provided us with a warm welcome and great recommendations. We felt safe and comfortable the entire time, and it was a perfect home for our introduction to Hawaii. There were several great coffee shops and restaurants close by that we already miss. Thanks so much for an exceptional rental experience!

Peaceful setting
We loved this home in the “country”. It had a view of the ocean and mountains. It was so peaceful being far enough away from the hustle and bustle of the city but close to everything on the island. Sandra was a great and responsive host.

All Around Wonderful Hawaii Stay
Our stay could not have been better. The home has been recently renovated with recently added kitchen appliances and living room furniture. Stunning mountain views on one side of the house and views of the ocean on the other promote a calming peaceful view of beautiful Hawaii. Dual covered patios in the front and back of the house aid in your enjoyment of the spectacular views. A well-stocked kitchen (i.e., pots, pans, plates, and cooking gadgets) add yet another layer of comfort to the stay. All-in-all a very well thought out rental with amenities in every corner that make your Hawaii stay extra relaxing.

First trip to Hawaii
The house was lovely, perfect for our 2 couples. It was nice to have 2 full baths. We cooked 2 meals a day and appreciated the well stocked kitchen. The mountain views in the front and ocean views in the back were spectacular. Breakfast was always served on the screened lanai. Enjoyed falling asleep to the sound of the ocean waves. Sandra was a wonderful host. Due to delayed flights and missing our connection, we didn’t arrive until almost midnight. Sandra had the lights on to welcome us and help us find the right house. It was difficult to find in the dark. On one particularly windy day, the area lost power. Sandra brought us a battery operated light that lit up the living area There is a park and small beach close by, less than a 5 minute walk. And one of the most scenic beaches in Oahu is a short drive. If you are looking for a place away from the busyness of Honolulu, this is the perfect spot.

Classic Hawaiian with big lanais
For our first trip to the Hawaiian islands we all enjoyed being away from crowds on the windward side of Oahu. This charming early 20th century cottage afforded lovely views of the water and sunrises on a hill away from the main road. It is any easy walk to the beach and close to various attractions. Our attentive hosts made it all comfortable.

Beautiful house in a tranquility of Ka’a’awa
The house is very clean and bright, had everything we needed and the view is unbelievable ! We walked to the beach it was nearly empty even in the highest season, with only a few locals. We hiked the gorgeous ( but tricky) trail without a need to drive. To get to more touristy places, the drive was always breathtaking , as it is along the shoreline. We loved everything about our stay!

We stayed here for Christmas 2023- my father 72, my husband 40, and myself 37. It was clean, quiet, SO comfortable- the perfect location and temperature. If you like a quiet area with easily walked to small beaches, please book this property. The patios are beautiful, seeing the mountains in the front and ocean in the back, you’ll feel like you’re in heaven. The hosts are SO nice, please enjoy all this listing offers!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay despite the rainy weather. We spent many hours on the covered lanai watching the waves. The house had everything we needed and beds were very comfortable. If you want to escape the busy tourist areas you can have ocean views in the front and mountains in the back

Touch of paradise
What a fabulous little home in what feels like the most untouched area of the island. We spent a few nights here and could not recommend it more! Everything was so clean and charming, kitchen was great for what we needed it for (very well stocked) and we ate all our meals on the deck! The owners provided basic home amenities (dish soap, bath soap, washing detergent, much appreciated!!). We were supposed to go to Maui, but due to the fires had to pivot and I’m so glad we did. Great, quiet spot to reflect and chill (don’t mind the chickens, we had a few crowing at 6am, but didn’t mind the early wake up call). Will definitely visit again!!

Relaxing family getaway
This home was perfect for our family vacation. The house has wonderful mountain and ocean views, and we enjoyed dining on the deck enjoying the breeze. The rental is simple yet inclusive of everything we needed, including beach towels, boogie boards, etc. The location is a little remote but it is worked well as a home base for our activities on the North Shore and Windward side. We stocked up on groceries in Honolulu when we arrived but later discovered Target and other conveniences in Kailua. Nearby we enjoyed the food trucks and Coconut Girl and Guys shave ice stand down the road. Would definitely stay here again. Thanks Sandy and family for hosting us!

Perfect Getaway
Our family of 4 enjoyed our stay very much. We wanted to be away from the crowded Waikiki area and this was just what we needed. Check in was a breeze and we were able to check in earlier too. Mark was on site when we checked in. He was very friendly and gave us recommendations on activities and beaches to visit. Cute little house with great views. Very clean and had everything we need, including beach gears and toys for our 3 & 5 year old boys! There is no AC but the cool ocean breeze made up for it and you can hear the waves at night. There is a 7-Eleven nearby and a short walk to the beach, where we mostly had the beach to ourselves on weekdays. When we needed anything, Sandra was just a text away. Very sweet owners. Our boys referred to them as grandma and grandpa. We even had fresh coconuts off their coconut trees. It is an island, so expect humid weather, unexpected showers, critters here and there and wild chickens roaming around. Overall, great experience!

Great vacation cottage
This was a great getaway cottage. The lanai was fantastic. We spent a lot of time sitting out there each morning and evening feeling the ocean breeze and listening to the waves. If you want a resort with all of the high-end amenities, this is not your spot. If you want a quiet getaway cottage away from the chaos of the city, this is your place. Everything you need for a day at the beach is included and there are several very quiet beaches within a minute or two. Casual and comfortable island getaway!
