About this property

PARADISE at the Hawaiian Princess Resort Oahu - Hawaii 1 Bedroom. Well Appointed

30 day booking - Save money and book for 30 and stay for less time.
Great get-away location in Hawaii! Away from the crowds of Waikiki or Hanuama Bay but close enough to visit! Just up the Leeward shore of Oahu past Pearl Harbor, Ko'Olina and the new Disney resort (Aulani). Located on one of the best beaches on the island. Beautiful condominium on the ocean with private Lanai (balcony) with views of the whales and dolphins or you can watch the sea turtles. Great place to watch the sunset, too! Quiet area with Beautiful Pool and Spa.

Fully furnished Resort condo with all the amenities of home. Comfortable condo with murals painted on the walls by a local artist (Elbert East). Close to golfing and right out your door is a great place to go scuba diving or snorkeling. Visit Diamond Head, Honolulu Zoo, Polynesian Cultural Center, Sea Life Park, Dole Pineapple farm or just relax and watch the surfers. Great place for a family vacation with a beautiful beach and relaxing atmosphere.

Located on the fifth floor of the Famous Hawaiian Princess Resort! Beautiful 180 degree views of the valley from the entrance and gorgeous views of the ocean from the lanai.
High Speed Wireless internet available for free.
Beach is usually more children friendly during the Spring and summer months with smaller waves. Fall and Winter months have higher surf.
Unit has A/C, but most guests are comfortable with the pleasant trades winds that blow providing fragrant breezes and wonderful sounds of the ocean. Our Building has water-cooled A/C which is not the same as the Air Conditioning that people are accustomed to. It will cool the unit, but it does not get really cold. 69-70 Degrees is about the maximum cooling. If you prefer a cooler environment, you may want to find another building as all the units at the Princess have the same type of A/C.

Come find Paradise here at the Hawaiian Princess!

Older property, gated community, very well kept, and nice & clean. We loved being right on the beach, and really liked being away from the hustle & bustle of the big city. Homeless live on the public beaches, but none on this beach. Would definitely stay again.

Beautiful! Relaxing!

The condo was clean and cozy! We loved the views outside on the balcony! Being on the 5th floor, it was the perfect height to observe the waves from a higher perspective and to enjoy the sounds and sights of the quiet almost private beach!

What a View!!

The view from this property is nothing short of spectacular! We spent every morning on the balcony enjoying our morning coffee. Jody was a joy to work with and the check in process was so easy. The sunsets were spectacular!! The property is located in a nice neighborhood with a drugstore and a supermarket close by. And the condo has everything you would ever need for a day at the beach. Book this unit for your next trip to Oahu. You will be happy you did!

Private beach... lovely condo

This was a lovely, secure, well equipped condo. The beach was beautiful...very private. We get up early and, at times, we were the only ones on the beach. The sand was soft and clean. We saw the turtles in the water every morning and the whales put on a show for us, breaching right out of the water. My only complaint is the surrounding area. It seems a very poor area and we took a drive around and there was junk on the side of the road... discarded cars, mattresses, sofas,etc. There were no nice restaurants in the area... lots of fast food... way too much. We asked the locals where to eat, so we went to some of the local restaurants, but if you want a really nice dining restaurant, you have to drive to Pearl Harbour/ Honolulu area. I guess you might call it an up and coming area...perhaps in a few years there will be the population to support better shopping and dining.

Okay......

Location on beach was nice. Sadly, AC did not work at all during our stay. First day and night was very hot in rental. No landline. No WiFi. Took a few days to get WiFi which i had to go get myself at another town by driving there, install it myself (disappointing/stressful) in order to get one of the pre-listed non-working mentioned service(s) finally working for us. A few of the furniture pieces were not in good shape or previously broken which went reported while we were there. Was just not expecting to have to do all this while on vacation which was set for our small family to just relax and not worry about things while there.........

Million Dollar View!!

Just spent a week in this cute little condo. The check-in with Security was fast and friendly. I will probably never forget opening the Lanai doors for the first time and seeing/hearing the waves crashing right in front of me. The condo is fully equipped with everything you need for the beach. Cooler, umbrellas, snorkels, boogie board.... Communication with Matt and Jody was efficient and accurate. They were very accounting hosts! I took one start off for location only because of how far away it is from everything. This is good and bad. The views, hiking trails on this part of the island are breathtaking but if you want to do anything out of the area it is at least an hour on the car. There were several comments about the homeless camps in the area. There certainly is and there are many of them. None of them however on what is basically your own beach in front of the condo. When we did encounter the odd homeless person we just said Hi, and they returned the greeting. No issues at all. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again, it was a wonderful week away from the hustle and bustle found elsewhere on the island. Thank for hosting us Matt and Jody, we’ll be back.

Million dollar view!

What a wonderful place to stay. The beach is directly below you and you could spend all day on your lanai watching the turtles, waves, boats passing by, snorkel lets, whales spouting and breaching, people climbing Lahilahi (recommend doing it at least once), kids (little and big) playing in the water having the time of their lives! Of course, you will want to the same but it is nice to feel like you are at the beach while having all the comforts of home. 505 is well equipped and it will feel like home right away. We loved walking on our beach every day, watch out for waves that come up unexpectedly high at times. The waves can be big at times but there are always breaks to get in and out if you don't like them. Lots of good beaches around if you want calmer water. Makaha just two minutes up the road has good snorkelling, a lifeguard and shade parking. There is a great hike/walk up north on the point that we really enjoyed. We also went on a boat tour EO out of Waianae Harbour just 3-4 minutes south of here. Swam with dolphins, turtles and lots of fish, tried paddleboarding, kayaking. Great crew and lots of fun to be on the boat. Since the traffic can be crazy at times, I would try explore the west side and not venture too far too often. Good restaurants we liked close to home: Spicy House, Kahumana Farm and Cafe, Coquitos, and Crawfish shack. There were lots of other ones that we heard good things about but we also liked grilling our own dinner, too. The bbqs were cleaned every morning. The grounds and pool were all tidy everyday. The elevators were fast and staff helpful. This place and area is not for those that like high end shopping, dining, hotels, etc. But then you are paying a fraction of what you would at one of those places and have crowds. Our beach and the others around were never too busy. There is a good Farmers Market behind Starbucks in Waianae on Satrudays, 8-12. There is a Longs and a good super market in town. Matt and Jody are quick to respond if you have any concerns or questions. We hope to come back and plan to recommend this place to friends and family back home. Lots of the people we met here are regulars and we can see why. Yes, there are homeless people here but everyone we encountered was friendly and we always felt safe.

Breathtaking Views

We had a wonderful stay at this property. The unit was spotless, beautifully updated, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed, plus a few extra touches. Jody was easy to reach, and the check-in process was smooth and hassle-free. Best of all, the view was truly unbeatable. We’d definitely love to stay here again.

Great beach and views

View and beach were outstanding. Room was comfortable but carpet was a bit dated. Host was great to work with. Easy check in even at 2am. There were a lot of homeless people in the area but they kept to themselves. A bit longer travel times to various parts of the island so avoid Honolulu rush hour traffic to make it more manageable. Really enjoyed our stay.

Lovely View

The HP is right on the beach - you can't beat it! The condo has a wonderful view. The lanai is perfect for meals and watching the sun set. The kitchen is small (one cook max) but is well stocked with appliances, utensils, cookware, etc. There are many items we appreciated that were in the condo such as a beach tote and cooler. The building amenities are nice, including the pool, parking availability, and security. There is good and fast communication with the owner. There are a couple drawbacks. To get that great location on the beach, you are a little ways from things. If you want to get to Honolulu, the North Shore, or east, you are looking at an hour+ drive. Just be prepared. As others have noted, this is a poorer area of Oahu and there is a homeless presence. We were prepared for this and weren't concerned about it, but others might be. However, I would not hesitate to stay there again!

Bucket List Trip

The condo was clean although the box spring in the bed room had something that looked like rust close to the headboard on the left side and my husband refused to sleep in that bed. We slept on the sleeper sofa our entire stay, which was comfortable. The beach view from the condo was awesome, but driving to the condo was miles of homeless camps, we were never bothered by them. The entire property felt very safe, we walked on the beach but spent most of our time checking out the island. The owner was very accessible which we appreciated.

About the host

Hosted by Jody Ballard

Host profile image
Owner lives in California, but comes to spend time each year in Hawaii.

Why they chose this property

Our family has always enjoyed staying in Hawaii and we love the ocean! We decided that this is where we would like to retire. We bought our place in Makaha so that some day we can spend all our time here - in the meantime, we rent it out so that others can enjoy the beautiful beach and all the amenities that the Hawaiian Princess has to offer. I hope that you enjoy it as much as we do! Aloha!

What makes this property unique

You can watch the spinner dolphins frolick just off the point of Mt. Lahi and watch the whales and turtles from the lanai. We have a beautiful beach with local artists painting and drawing the beautiful scenery. You can buy it direct from them instead of picking it up at the expensive shops in Waikiki. The beach is not crowded and it is a great place to get away from all the hustle and bustle of the city! Relax and Unwind!
