Great stay!! Good views!! Amazing communication. Would recommend
Great view of the ocean and sunsets. Perfect for a family (maybe not for a toddler). There were some beach chairs and toys. Kitchen worked great for cooking for 4 people. Small but well equipped. We had a very nice stay.

Amazing Stay!
Our family was so thankful to stay in this beautiful place. The view was breathtaking! My mom cried of joy walking to the backyard and seeing that view. Love how easy it was to access the water and get to the beach. The home had everything we needed plus more! Thank you for being a great host and checking on us daily! Thankful for the beach/snorkel supplies too.

On Our Favorites List
Lovely north shore property that has been completely renovated. Host is very responsive and available. Plenty of room and close to beach. Tide pools are great for viewing. Sandier areas are a short walk away. Bring or buy reef shoes. We stay in many rentals around the world and this was one of our favorites, ever. I don't say that lightly. Highly recommended.

Perfection!
If you're looking to stay in the North Shore area you need to stay here! The home is absolutely perfect and Carly is the best! She was so welcoming and even left a few snacks and drinks in the kitchen for us to enjoy! The house was spotless and we got plenty bath/beach towels to use during our stay. The beach access was the best. We saw so many sea turtles swim past the shore right in front of the house and lots of other critters in the tied pools! The sandy part of the beach is just a short walk in either direction and perfect for sun bathing/swimming.
This is the perfect place stay for anyone looking to explore the hikes, beaches and food trucks on this side of the island. We will definitely be coming back to Carly's during our next trip!

A+ for Location and Hosts
We were a little hesitant to book this initially, as it was a brand new listing with no prior reviews. However, we are SO incredibly glad we took a chance. This place was truly epic! From the moment we arrived, we knew we had stumbled upon something special.
Being oceanfront was a dream come true for the price paid. Below the property were these magical tide pools that our kids absolutely loved exploring for hours, discovering all sorts of little sea creatures. It felt like having our own private aquarium!
The proximity to other amazing spots was a huge bonus. Turtle Bay Resort was just a couple of minutes away (driving), and we were thrilled to find out we could rent their pickleball courts for a very reasonable price. Public parking is free, surprisingly. We also spent a fantastic afternoon paddleboarding in the calm waters of nearby Kawela Bay and spotted some TURTLES!
The layout of the rental itself was ideal for our group. The split master suite setup offered us all private space, while still having indoor and outdoor gathering areas to hang out together for a meal, playing games, or just soaking in the incredible ocean views. We wholeheartedly recommend this gem on the North Shore and can't wait to come back!
This house is gorgeous and was wonderful for our group. The location is perfect and the interiors were all beautiful. Our group enjoyed lots of time cooking together in the beautiful kitchen and enjoying ocean views. Would love to come back again!

Private Paradise
This truly feels like a private piece of paradise. We loved seeing the sea turtles float by, walking to the tide pools, and basking in the ocean views on the outdoor loungers. It was so hard to return back home in the dead of winter. Miss it already!
