Good location and nice size for family.
We enjoyed our time and the property was good. Although the property needs some maintenance and the pool needs to be repaired. Parking is tight, but doable. No real beach access, but exploring so many beaches, it’s not an issue at the house.

Family Vacation
Great house for family vacation. Plenty of space for private time. Plenty of towels and linens. Huge kitchen with double ovens, stoves, microwave and fridges. Walking distance to small shopping center. Only disappointment was couldn’t see ocean from rooftop.

The best decision I made when coming to Hawaii!
When I was trying to find a place that my now husband and I’s wedding party could all fit in and that everyone would love and would also let us have our reception there, my choices were looking very bleak. When I finally found this place, the hosts were gracious enough to open this week for us and allow us to host our reception there following our wedding ceremony. This house is beautiful beyond words! It fit all of us comfortably and allowed us all to still have our own space in a house full of people. The reception we held here was even more beautiful because of this house! The host helped us with anything we needed, and we’re kind enough to let us stay past the check in time. We all loved this house so very much and it made our week in Hawaii beyond special!

Very cool large house!
This house is huge. It has 9 bedrooms and another small kitchen upstairs. The roof top deck has spectacular views! The owner’s suite has a beautiful sitting deck also. The outdoor pool area has a gas grill and lots of seating at the table. The owner was very nice and helpful.

Beautiful stay
The house was perfect, bbq was really dirty so we didn’t use it. Piles of leaves around the pool not cleaned. Access to the beach was not what we thought, we had the impression that it was a house away not 1/2 mile away. Everyone had a great time and family time is the best.

Fantastic base of operations for Oahu
Property is huge and well-equipped and is in an excellent location to support activities all over the island… We have stayed on Oahu multiple times and like to be near main road so that we can get to the north shore or the east or west side of the island along with Waikiki, and this was perfect for that purpose… I had a large group and never felt cramped and we had lots of room to spread out and enjoy our time together… Most of the property has been renovated recently with excellent finishes throughout the house. Mun is located on site and was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. Would definitely recommend.

Nice Beautiful Place but.
Nice place, very comfortable, nice location, I just did not give five stars because the pool area was full of construction material all over, some of the people from my family that was with got hurt in some the wood on the ground, and was impossible to transit in the location! Besides that was no complains perfect place

Beautiful property
The property was perfect for our large group of 12. We utilized the whole house as well as the outdoor spaces. The view from the rooftop was amazing, just wish there was different seating. It rains daily so the couches were almost always wet. The pool is perfect, the kitchen is awesome, and the bedrooms are clean and comfortable. Plus Mun and Paul are always available if you need anything including recommendations. I would stay here again as well as recommend it for anyone I know! Mahalo

Anniversary Celebration
House large enough to hold 13. Gave us plenty of space. The kitchen was huge. We spent plenty of time there. The pool was great to have but it was always so cloudy you couldn’t see the bottom. Didn’t stop the kids from getting in. There was no hot tub. Our manager was able to get the air conditioners fixed in three of the bedrooms after a couple of days. Our manager worked very hard keeping such a large property in running order but we still weren’t comfortable with how clean things were. All the outside pillows and cushions had bird droppings on them so we didn’t use that furniture. We did use the huge picnic table a lot. Great location for all our activities.

Great family holiday house
We met our family from Australia, New York and the UK here for a family holiday. The house was just perfect for our large group. We had all ages from babies, kids, teens, adults and grandparents and there was more than enough room for all of us. The house was clean and the kitchen was well stocked with everything you could need. There was plenty of seating for our family meals both inside and outside. The pool was clean and comfortable. The host Mun was helpful and accommodating. The location is great as you are a short drive to the beautiful east coast or downtown Honolulu. There is also a grocery store across the street you can walk to in 5 minutes which is super convenient. All in all a great stay and would go back.

Big house close to city
House was big enough to fit entire family comfortably. Beds were comfortable. Parts of the house were not clean. Towels had lots of stains. Closet was dusty. Found mold in washer and on glasses. House was not completely ready until an hour after check in and kitchen had burning smell from the oven self cleaning. One of two dishwashers was not working. Cabinets need some repair. Owner was responsive and nice. Could not walk to beach but Foodland and other shops are close enough to walk. Overall was pleased with stay.

Amazing house and pool, but some safety issues
House is beautiful and pool is amazing. Great for large families and groups of friends. The walk to beach is on the busy highway and beach is rocky and grassy with thorns. The glass doors to pool and driveway do not lock and all smoke detectors have been removed. Both concerns were brought up to owner on the first day but neither were fixed during our week stay. The owner was very accommodating with many other things and we truly enjoyed our stay. Kitchen has 2 full size fridges and dishwashers which was great! Bring shampoo, conditioner, soap and lotion, none is provided

Plenty of room!
Nice big home with plenty of room to relax with a large group. Quiet backyard patio with patio tables, chairs just outside the home, with lots of greenery for shade. Very hospitable host. Was about 500 feet from highway so can hear lots of traffic during the day/evening, but if you are inside enjoying the air conditioning you won't hear it. Needs some maintenance inside, main bathroom has some rot around bottom of shower; baseboards. Pool needs to be resurfaced, as bottom is badly stained/scraped. Water pipes in walls can be heard "fIowing" (not sure how else to describe noise) at night and a/c in king bedroom downstairs leaks water from the condenser. Some wires from smoke alarms hanging from ceiling.

Nice place but…
Place was nice but we were welcomed with cockroaches all over the kitchen . Mentioned to the landlord and she stated that she warns guests about bug problems due to the neighbor trees but I didn’t know that trees attract cockroaches nor was I warned about bugs. We made do and just washed and sanitized everything before we used it but not a pleasant surprise. She did also have a pest guy come and spray one day. The pool was lovely and the amenities were nice too. Also didn’t feel too private as landlord lives in the guest house next door and felt like we were being watched for everything we did or did not do right. On the second to last day my uncle decided to stay behind while the rest of the family went out to the beach, just because they saw the two vehicles were gone they thought we were gone so the husband came over and helped himself in , when he saw that there was someone in the living room he quickly left saying oh I was just coming to turn off lights you left on. We didn’t feel that there was a sense of privacy for the rented space . Did like that she provided toilet paper or spices on request. The gps does not take you there for some reason it takes you past it so it was hard to find. It’s best seen in the daylight. The cleaning fee is steep but they should hire another company to clean as it was pretty obvious they do a poor job cleaning, blinds are dusty, mirrors all streaky, floor super dirty, we took our shoes off and our white socks cleaned the floors, it turned them black. Highlights of the house was the master and pool, AC and number of bedrooms/bathrooms.
