Perfect for family of 4

We brought out our two teenagers with us and had an amazing week all over the island. This is the place to stay. Shout out to Beau for being a great care taker. Didn’t want to leave. Private beach and location of the property is amazing!

Best Hawaii trip ever!

We absolutely loved our stay here, we will definitely be back. The home was very well decorated and stocked. The caretaker Beau was extremely communicative and helpful, and the owner Dolly was on site and wonderful as well! The grounds are spectacular, and you cannot beat the location and beach for some relaxation time.

Wonderful beach front bungalow

Great little hideaway right on the private beach. Easy check in. The onsite caretaker/owner is very friendly and accommodating. We appreciated late check out. The place is smaller than we expected. Definitely too small for 4 adults. We felt as we were on top of each other. Also be aware that there’s no true kitchen which makes things difficult. The hot tub did not work during our stay. If you are party of two adults I think this place is perfect.

Would definitely come back

The space was better than expected, with nice cathethal ceilings, comforable beds, bright interior, and newly installed mini splits. Windows open wide if an ocean breeze is preferable. Porch view of water is gorgeous with sun and moon rises to start and finish the day. Private beach area is perfect for a quick dip or lazing around.

Recommend to stay here!

We could not have been more happy with our stay in this beautiful place. It's nestled between jagged green hills and the sparkling blue ocean with a private beach so the setting in breathtaking. The space itself was immaculate and beatifully decorated with gorgeous sunrise views from the deck each morning. The caretaker met us upon arrival to show us around and he was extremely responsive when we had questions. We will be back for sure!

Hidden Gem

I almost don’t want to write a good review to keep this place a secret. That’s how amazing this incredible beach cottage is. Location, amazing!!! Looks better in person than the pictures. Fantastic private beach, had everything and more you could ever need, from bathroom and kitchen supplies to snorkels and fins. We honestly can’t wait to go back! Aloha ❤️

Image picture vs reality difference

The accommodation is not what it seems on the pictures. There are old dirty chairs outside and worn wooden table. Misleading pictures. White couch is so dirty you want to put towels on. The worst thing was that there were NO curtains giving privacy. Neighbors can look in, Especially at night. We hung up a sheet

peaceful cottage

A little slice of paradise! The location stands out most - the unit is on a quiet and beautiful part of the island. The beach is just a few steps across the lawn and is stunning; nice white sand, amazing views, clear blue water for swimming, and almost entirely private. The unit itself is relatively small but was plenty of space for two of us. It's comfortable, well decorated/appointed, and has effective A/C. Note that the kitchen is more of a kitchenette (no oven, for example) but has most everything you need including a full fridge and freezer. Lastly, the housekeeper is very attentive and helpful if you have any questions or needs.

Great view!

Three of us, all seniors, stayed in this cozy apartment. I can see four people being happy here at any age. The view cannot be beat. It is located in a beautiful spot on the island, tropical setting with the ocean right in front of you. Price is reasonable, comfortable seating and beds, response to questions were quick, and recommendations made were helpful. As for eating, a supermarket was close by, there were many food trucks north within a couple of miles and it was close to Polynesian Cultural Center, which also had great places to eat in their marketplace (no entrance fee). Would highly recommend if you're looking for a comfortable, peaceful place to enjoy your time on Oahu.

Peaceful

We came as a final trip for my husband with end stage cancer. We wanted a beautiful, serene place and it was perfect. Do not come here if you want to party ( stay in Honolulu if you want night life). It is a rural area with local people, that is in a great location for the Polynesian Cultural Centre and food trucks. The sunrise views and ocean sounds were wonderful. The kitchen is very small and has an induction hot plate instead of stove, but we made it work. There is a restaurant almost across the street that closes by 6:00 pm and food trucks nearby, as well as eating places in Laie. You will need a car. The inside table in pictures was not there and it was not the best weather for eating on outside table, so we ate in living room off our laps. There are only 2 stools and space for 2 to eat at counter. I would suggest they put back the coffee table or small dining table for people to eat at. The bedrooms however are exactly as pictured and very comfortable. Beau, the caretaker was helpful. The beach access was amazing.

Beautiful cottage

Bria’s place was beautiful beyond words. Not only is the location ideal for a fairly private beach getaway, but it’s situated in between many wonderful local attractions. The home is decorated and maintained beautifully, and it was very easy to unwind and relax there. I hope to stay there again soon!
