The cottages at Mauna Olu are a newly developed family oriented gated community with 24 hour security on Oahus famous west side.  The 26 acre community features 118 homes situated within the breathtaking Makaha Valley, and is located at the foot of Mount Kaala of the Waianae Mountain Range, the tallest mountain on Oahu.  Makaha Valley is one of the largest on the leeward coast. Mauna Olu is the perfect getaway from urban city life, ideal for enjoying peaceful starry nights and a resort-like ambiance while preserving a cozy home away from home feeling. World famous Makaha Beach known for its world class surfing is a mere 5 minutes away and frequently boasts some of the best weather on Oahu.  It's also known for incredible snorkeling and scuba diving as well when the waters are calm. The westside of Oahu is home to some of the most beautiful white sand beaches on earth frequented by countless pods of dolphins. At the Makaha Valley Country Club you can play at an exclusive golf course located at the base of the Waianae mountains.  Known for its varied challenging doglegs and breathtaking elevation changes, it is one of the most enjoyable courses in the island chain to improve one's golf skills. Numerous outdoor hikes abound throughout the area, which are sure to delight any outdoor enthusiast.  Perhaps the most famous is the Kaena Point state park, a bird sanctuary hike at the westernmost tip on Oahu, known for having some of the biggest waves on earth! In Hawaiian lore, it's known as a jumping off place for souls to enter the afterlife...  You can definitely feel the mana (power) everywhere here!  When a taste of the city life calls, Makaha is 16 miles away from the urban offerings of Kapolei, home to such exciting attractions like the waterpark, Ko Olina golf course and the Disney Aulani resort and its multiple shops and restaurants.  There is no shortage of excitement in store for the entire family!

Needs improvement
Overall the house/community was good but lacking in amenities. The sheets and towels need to be replaced. They were very worn and there were not enough towels or washcloths. Two dish towels and one sponge are not enough for a week’s stay. We had to do multiple loads of laundry to have enough towels. The dryer isn’t the greatest. It had to be started multiple times in order to dry a load. WiFi was insufficient. We had use of the WiFi for about three days and it no longer worked.

Beautiful, clean house in beautiful location
Other than the home missing some basic amenities (hangers, baking pans, mixing bowls), it was really easy to stay here. The home is very clean and beautiful and it is set in a very, very beautiful location. A special feature of this place was the separate studio that was included. We would definitely stay here again! Snorkeling in the area was not very good. We recommend Pokia Bay state park for swimming, especially with small children. We also recommend the Ko Olina Lagoons for swimming with small children. Other suggestions in the area: The Beach House restaurant and the Ko Nau Lani whale watch tour.

a lifesaver
We grabbed this home last minute as the other rental we had reserved was absolutely NASTY! This home was bright and clean, everything was as listed, super comfy beds and the extra studio was really nice to have! We had an issue with the hot water heater timer as the power had gone off for a few hours and the maintenance person was very quick to reply!! There were a couple random kitchen items that would have been nice to have available, but overall we loved it and 100% would stay here again!

Lots of space
Great house, lots of space, but limited only by geography. KoOlina lagoons are 20 minutes. Waikiki or Wiamea are more like 50-60 minutes. Gated community. Great value if you’re willing to drive some.

Loved this house
We had no idea what the area would be like when we booked since this was our first time visiting Hawaii. It was super clean & had a nice layout. The neighborhood was very safe since there is a manned guard at the gate and you cannot get in w/o stopping. The view from both the street & house were great. You can see the sea & being surrounded by the mountains was beautiful. The sky was unobscured for a view of the moon and stars. We had 9 people in the house & never felt too crowded. 6 of our party were females & we all use 2 towels for showering. One for hair & one for body. When I booked I had to put the number of guests so they knew we were a party of 9, but there were 8 sets of towels. I requested 7 more bath towels & 5 hand towels, but that got mixed up. We made it work. The pull out couch did not have sheets nor pillows. I asked for a set of sheets & pillows but only got a flat sheet. We made it work. The kitchen was nice, but there were no kitchen towels. The rental company provides paper towels but if you hand wash anything it’s very wasteful to use paper towels to leave wet dishes on to dry. I went to Walmart & bought a cheap pack of 2. My 2 biggest complaints are this: the king bed in the upstairs master slopes in the center. My husband kept rolling into the middle & we were had knees in backs & knees knocking knees. That sucked. My other complaint is the family room config. The little settee was uncomfortable.
