Location is outstanding. In my opinion this is one of the most beautiful parts of the island and on top of that itâs located very well to access both the north shore and Honolulu. This is an apartment over an art gallery. While it is ocean front thereâs not much in the way of a beach at least while we were there. There are 4 bedrooms in all, one is not furnished which was fine for my family as we used it for a staging area for luggage and clothes.
This is exactly as described. One bathroom is a little smaller than pictured. Beach out front was amazing...swimming with sea turtles, sunrises and sunsets were spectacular, the sound of the waves with that ocean breeze. Straight up paradise and Lance and his wife were very helpful with any question or information. Definitely will be back....
We had a wonderful time. The beauty of the ocean is so relaxing and peaceful. We were on the go constantly and it was great to get out on the lanai at the end of the day. The art work in the home is absolutely beautiful!
Beautiful view from the living room and upper deck. Well stocked house. We enjoyed grilling oceanside and eating on the deck. Low tide allowed easy beach access for our morning beach walks.
If you want beautiful views, this is the place. Plenty of parking. Nice big lot. Large rooms. Large bathroom on upper floor. Only downside was the clothes washer was not working for all 3 days. New one was on order.
Wonderful property with amazing views and a history that made it feel like home. I must have missed the note that stated there was another rental space below but in hindsight Iâm glad I did because the property was perfect for what we had planned. The hosts were kind, generous, and welcoming!!
Lance was great very responsive very helpful. All the questions we had. He was quick to respond. He even came over and introduced himself. We are there for 25th anniversary. We had a fantastic time.
We enjoyed our stay. The house was very comfortable for our group and had everything we needed. We loved the location. Itâs close to stores and activities. The home is a little dated but was very clean. The beds were comfortable. The main drawback is the busy road but we dealt with it. 2 things which I donât think is clear - 1) it is upstairs. Which was ok for us but could be an issue for others. 2) it is not on a beach. Itâs on the water. The ocean comes right up to the downstairs front yard - but you have a short walk to the sandy beach. Thank you for a nice stay.
This property has stunning views facing east for gorgeous sunrises from a large deck. The ocean sounds are just right for sleeping (the breakwater is a few hundred yards off shore so not too loud). There is some road noise but we got used to it in a day or two.
Lance was great and very communicative. The house was clean, and well appreciated. 3 couples and plenty is space. Beautiful view, right on the water. Would stay again.
The view from the deck makes this place! Great spot to stay away from the crowds of Honolulu, easy access to beautiful beaches and North Shore. We saw turtles every morning right off the property and even saw a few whale spouts near the horizon. Would definitely recommend if youâre not into the city and resort crowds.
There is no mincing words, this was exactly what you want and exactly what you get. a pleasant, simple rural home with a wonderful ocean view. Everything you'll need is in the kitchen. Lance did a great job helping us with any questions and gave us good advice for any spots we wanted to visit.
This place gave our family the best memories of Hawaii.
The place was clean roomy for 6 adults. Everything went perfectly smooth from check in to check out. Thanks to Lance for fast response and helping us out without stepping into our privacy during our stay. I hope others who stay here will get a chance to check out his art works and art studio downstairs which we were lucky to. House is right by the ocean and as well as the road you will hear some noise during day but nothing to complain about. My parentsâ best memories are here sitting at the patio looking at the beach getting ocean breeze finding turtle visits usually in the mornings. Definitely will come back.
Canât beat the view. No need for ac in the main room. But ac did help with the sleeping in all 3 bedrooms. Lance was very nice and helpful. From his work you can see he is a talented artist. Like almost every house on the coast you will hear traffic. I would definitely stay here agsin.
I have lived on the island for over 40 years. Providing personal care to my guests to make sure they have a memorable Hawaiian vacation is my top priority. My two children grew up here, spending their childhood playing on the beach and swimming in the ocean at the back yard of this property. We are available to provide you with local knowledge, and to ensure that you have a great stay.
We have lived here since 1987, Hauula is where one can feel aloha (love from the heart). People are genuine. Neighbors always watch out for each other. The bonds are so tight. My dog, Abel, used to walk the beach freely (when there was no need for a leash), everyone knew him. Abel is in heaven now and we miss him.
When we moved here, our neighborhood boys, Dane and Drew delivered us cookies. My children became close friends with Drew who always took care of them. We never had to worry if they were with Drew. This is the kind of neighborhood we have. Drew now has his own family and still bring his family to visit his old neighbors once in a while.
This is a basic rural home, nothing fancy. One time a guest commented, " So peaceful. Looking out into mountains and the ocean, listening to the sound of the wave put you back with nature. It rejuvinates your soul."
