The best VRBO experience yet

This was everyone's favorite location we stayed during our vacation. The home itself fit every need for our family of four - enough space for all four of us, comfy beds, a full kitchen with everything we needed, comfy beds and we really made use of all the "extras" from colored pencils to snorkel gear. Our hosts were absolutely wonderful - they were incredibly welcoming and friendly, generously sharing local information and recommendations. My kids' favorite was getting to play with the friendly pets - especially Huck, who was up just as early as they were :) The location was great as well; we felt safe in the community, and were minutes from all the North Shore fun we had planned for our stay.

Wonderful unit for a family stay

Host, Sarah, was the best from our reservation until we checked out. She was very helpful prior to our arrival and welcoming when we arrived. The home was very nice! Clean, cozy and larger than we expected. The beds were comfortable and the entire unit was well stocked with all that was needed for our stay. The AC and fans were nice to use during the warm afternoons. We especially loved seeing Huck! Thank you so much Sarah. We hope to return soon!

Excellent base for North Shore Adventures

The property is the back house behind the hosts’ home. It still offered privacy and the host family is amazing. We felt safe and comfortable and had everything we needed and more. If you want to explore the North Shore this is a perfect job as everything is close and easy to get to. Waimea Bay, Haliewa, Sharks Coves, Dole Plantation, Kaena Point all within a short drive. We went to the local beach for sunset every night and it was less than a 10 minute drive.

We slept like babies at night after spending days at north shore beaches. The beds were clean and comfy an with AC if we needed it but we rarely did as the weather is always perfect. Kitchen and bathrooms has towels, toilet paper and paper towels plenty for the week we were there. Their dog Huckleberry and Midnight the cat are great little beings and very polite animals. The location is ideal and away from the crazy north shore traffic. Then it is just a quick 1-2 miles to the local sights. Easy peasy and immediate vacation! Thanks for the great space and peace. Blessings to the owners and their family.

Sarah and Ryan were wonderful hosts, very communicative and available throughout our visit. The location and home were perfect! We truly felt we were coming “home” every evening after a long day of activities. As a bonus and being a dog lover, the highlight was having their pup Huckleberry greet us each morning. You won’t be disappointed!

Amazing location, property, and host!

The property was perfect for our week long stay, and the hosts were incredibly kind, helpful, and accommodating! This little cottage is perfect for a group of 4 or a family traveling together, and the location was also great. Lots of great beaches, food joints, and hikes around and our stay could not have been any more perfect. The cottage was also a lot more spacious than anticipated. Next time we are in Hawaii we will definitely want to come back and stay here, we can’t recommend this place enough!
