Beachfront, Turtles, swim snorkel sun. New AC in unit. Washer dryer.
Legal Short Term Rental: NUC No. 90/TVU-0017 | TMK 1530080020018. This Unique and private beachfront condo with turtles everywhere and its a perfect swimming beach. Come enjoy the newly remodeled oceanview unit that has a wonderful ocean crossbreeze from the trade winds and air conditioning also now we are happy we have a brand new septic system. This one of a kind place is probably the best swimming and snorkeling beach on this island and with a newly remodled kitchen and bathroom that’s kept sparkling clean. This beachfront condo is best for swimming, snorkeling, canoeing and sunbathing fun. Turtles are everywhere on this very calm beachfront that often has balmy sea breezes and as for swimming, it’s protected by a reef and great for kids too as the water is perfect and usually calm, clear and inviting. The lawn out front is like carpet also and the beach is pristine with clear tiel waters.
Just step outside onto the beach or relax on patio outside under an umbrella table or on the units lanai and sip a beverage and see the waves and palm trees sway. Watch tv on a 52 inch smart cable tv on one of the two comfy chairs (one makes into a twin size sleeper and there’s a futon topper for extra comfort, and the other is a straight back chair) or just watch while relaxing on the full size bed on a memory foam mattress and pillows with the remote or better yet, go outside and discover the surroundings and lounge on one of the many beach chairs while watching the waves or sit under an umbrella table and grill on the BBQ and eat on a picnic table or by the swimming pool. There is Free WiFi and a full size bed in a small back room area and a breezy ceiling fan up above each bed. The place is perfect for two people and works for three and even four, you’ll love the grounds too.You won’t need anything however but this place if you decide to stay here and take in the beauty of the swaying palm trees and quiet paradise lawn with sunbathing chairs. If this sounds like paradise to you then This place is for you! The unit also has an ocean breeze while listening to the waves on the full size bed in front room with memory foam mattress. There’s also a Full size bed in back area also has memory foam mattress that Sleeps 2 more. We do recommend however you consider the place is smaller and works best for 2-3 people. 4 will work however if you must and it’s private in the back with some space for luggage in closet and a dresser drawer to unpack. Total we can handle is 4. There’s a Sleeper chair in front also that makes to bed when legs extended from zipper holder on back and pulled down. Extra cushion topper futon for more comfort. Many collectibles removed as per guest recommendations and we always have and always will professionally clean everything between stays and provide new linens and pillows and towels changing them regularly. Our cleaners use our new hydrosteam crosswave mop vac steamer that leaves the place spotless between each guest. You may also book a additional cleaning after three or four days if you need one at an additional discounted cost. Just ask the host. You will love relaxing in our comfy condo after a day on the beach or touring about the many attractions close by. (There is also half and entire large closet that has all the swim equipment and Tommy Bahama beach chairs and umbrella you will need and for your use and a smaller cloths hanger area, (to put your belongings and a full size dresser for your cloths.) Nearly everyone who has visited has loved the place and commented on its charm. When you stay with us you won’t regret it. The memories will last forever.
The ocean is calm and clear and everyone is usually is swimming and snorkeling or just sunbathing or lying under a palm tree. The unit is also clean and quiet and professionally cleaned after each guest. All sheets, pillows, blankets, rugs, linens and towels are sanitized after each guest and either new or clean. My pillows are very comfortable also. I use cotton sheets also.
The place is very rare and a hidden gem…, like a Diamond in the rough. The swimming beach is awesome for children and adults alike as it’s protected by a reef and teaming with turtles and we have seen manta ray and even a monk seal.
There’s a large grass area with swaying palm trees and the grass is like carpet with lawn chairs and picnic tables and umbrella tables too. It’s like heaven and we look forward to spending time there whenever we can and can’t wait to go back there ourselves as its our happy place. Also there is spalling and painting work being done on the end of the building and its ongoing and intermittent sometimes with noise and however noone has complained as it’s only during working hours and never on weekends. Most people are touring or on the gorgeous beachfront so it hasn’t been an issue. Also work on the parking lot has begun (mid Feb 26) and working men are replacing pipes located under the parking lot. Expect to park down at Kaya’s market about 100 years away (however there will be a drop off area for luggage) and full time security for the vehicles at Kaya’s and Our building also has 24 hour security. We are giving a huge discounted rate because of this work. It’s only sorting working hours and never on weekends. There may be intermittent water shutoffs occasionally (rarely) but only during working hours and never on weekends as well. We have a new bigger AC as of today. The beachfront is paradise and you can always close the door to the parking area and turn on the AC to avoid any disturbance that may occure if any. There may be noise intermittently again only during working hours and never on the beachfront.

This place is very cute and clean. Conveniently located for anything you could want to do in the north shore area and only 50 minutes from Honolulu. Janet, the host is very responsive and communicates quickly. Great stay
We arrived late to the property. It was extremely confusing with the parking (no fault of the host) to find a parking spot (we ended up on the main highway). There were many lockboxes to go through to find ours. The bathroom toilet floor area had lots of dark hair from a previous guest. The kitchen cupboards were full of someone’s food as well as the fridge. I felt like I was invading someone’s home. The beds were clean. We didn’t spend much time in the unit. It was a place to sleep and tidy up. For the price of this unit compared to where we were staying prior to this place, I feel it was not worth this much money for 2 nights. I think I would share more photos of the inside of the unit and maybe really describe the construction a bit more. This would not be a place I would choose again.

I am so sorry you felt this way. You are the first. I’m surprised about the bathroom hair as I cleaned it myself and not sure how that happened. Again that’s a first. The fridge has some dressings and some steak sauce ketchup and mustard that uncheck dates regularly. Also the cupboard condiments we leave also for the next guest and most people love that. It’s our home too and we come out from time to time. I also leave the cupboard above the coffee pot filled with things people leave like coffee sugar honey and other items you can have if you need or want. Even pancake mix and syrup. There are also various spices and salt and pepper for cooking to help cut costs. Most people love that. Someone left microwave popcorn too. I clean it regularly and check for dates as well to make sure it’s good stuff. Again most people love it as it saves them money when they stay with us. Anyway have a nice stay next time next place. And you forgot to mention what you lied about the place. Did you go on the beachfront and swim with the turtles or lay in the sun and bath or even the shade?? Mahalo.
Location. Location. Location. Janet’s condo is in a fantastic location within a few steps of a wonderful beach with turtles and beautiful sunrises. There is an ocean view from the condo but has some obstruction from a building in front of the condo. The kitchen is well equipped, the bed is comfortable, and the shower is great with hot water. While we were there, the complex was being updated and the construction noise outside was loud at times. It didn’t bother us because we would leave shortly after the construction crew arrived to go out exploring during the day. We loved the location and would definitely stay here again.

We weren't expecting that the building and parking areas to be so old and and the apartment so tiny. Parking was a challenge for an SUV. It didn't help that it was raining and huge puddles. We found if we parked nearer to the stairwell closest to the unit, it was easier to get to the unit and beach and less stressful than navigating around the construction which was loud. The unit was clean (Except for the freezer) as was the beds and bedding. The apartment was cute but too cluttered. My husband is tall and disabled and found it very cramped--less is more. If you are going to be on the beach and out and about--no worries. Perfect for young college students. That being said--the beach is perfect. We swam even in the rain, saw pretty fish and turtles. It made up for these issues

Roger the apartment is tiny and it’s old but it’s under restoration and the second floor isn’t painted yet and the flooring in hallway will be resurfaced soon. They say you were there it must have been them working on emergency piping in the cottage out front. Yes I heard it did get loud. Apologies. We are so happy to hear you still enjoyed the lovely lawn and beachfront area. We are Also happy you found the beds and towels and sheets very comfortable and clean. We keep those updated as a priority. Mahalo Nui Loa. Jan
We visited Waikiki first and this was such a nice change definitely quiet, beautiful view from the condo and the outdoor area is just amazing grass, flowers, lounge chairs, the beach, palm trees, turtles evening and morning. It was really an amazing spot. We spent a lot of time walking the beach in the water and lounging on the chairs in the evening just enjoying the breeze and the stars.
This was an excellent location. We enjoyed being able to wake up and get in the water. It was a calm, quiet beach and we did see turtles! The host provided access to lots of beach toys, boogie boards, and snorkel gear. What a peaceful paradise and wonderful vacation!

Thank you Emily. It was our pleasure to have you. Jan
The oceanside and beach access was lovely. The size of the rental was perfect for our needs as we basically used it as a landing zone b/w excursions and so did not spend a lot of time inside. The location was also great for what we had planned to see and explore!
Cute property right on the beach, has everything you need. Even accommodated us with parking. Will be booking with her again

Our stay was just okay. It was exactly as advertised (except the AC doesn’t really do anything). It wasn’t quite as comfortable as we would’ve liked for our honeymoon. Check in was unique and the place was under a lot of construction (which I knew) but just probably not worth what we paid!

I apologize that the AC finally went kaput during your stay. I did just buy a new bigger better one and it works well. The beachfront is beautiful too as are the turtles though and everything clean and comfortable. If you visit again let me know and I'll give you a substantial discount.
Perfect location on Eastside of the island. Posting is accurate. Only drawbacks that we didn’t foresee was only having one key available and low ceilings. We are tall people but it was cozy. Basically what we expected after staying at several places around the island over the past year.
This place is just amazing. Ocean and beach at your fingertips!! Turtles right there on beach!! Just a serene place to stay!! I love it at Pats place!!

Servicable, though not exactly luxurious
The property was servicable enough. I appreciated the proximity to the beach, and there were turtles there. However, the property is older and in more disrepair than the pictures let on.

Heidi we are so happy you enjoyed the space and yes the property is undergoing major repairs as mentioned to you prior to your arrival and no one complained and they love the beachfront and turtles so much and we give such a huge discount due to the intermittent work and the unit is so nice inside and comfortable. The work however is also progressing nicely and we are happy it’s almost finished near my unit. Everyone usually hangs out on the beachfront and then it makes up for inconvenience. Thanks again for choosing to stay with us.
We have come to this property several times and love it more each time we go.

Thanks for staying with us however there were stains on the blankets I couldn’t get out so I had to buy new ones and I’m very good with getting out stains so I was upset a little. Also you didn’t mind the house rules and clean the floors regularly. Lots of food and other debris on floors and in bed even and on counters. This can cause critters so we always request people to stay very tidy. This is our home and we cherish it. Overall you were ok but just a few things as mentioned.
About the host

US Army Veteran who loves people. My best friend and I would love to make your stay with us memorable and comfortable. We live in this place. It’s truly paradise.
Why they chose this property
A unique place with sand and a grassy lawn that premiers one of the best hideaway beaches on the island perfect for swimming, kayaking, snorkeling and the kids love it to when the waves are shallow that is most of the time. There is also a pool for the kiddies if needed. The place has a local feel and people here are all so nice and happy. It’s peaceful and you can hear the waves while you sleep and see the ocean and palm trees while you cook. If you do t want to cook there are delicious food trucks very close by and Kayas also has a kitchen for take out that is just steps from the condo. Also there are shrimp trucks and down the road is PCC with several eating selections and many taco trucks close by also. Or venture down by car 20 minutes to Turtle Bay Resort for cocktails and sunset at the Point or a 5 Star Dinner experience at Lei Leis for the best steaks or fish around or Roys for a fusion cuisine. If you venture further down to Haleiwa you can head to the Beach House for dinner, sunset and cocktails or Haleiwa Joes for a legendary Prime Rib dinner.
What makes this property unique
The coral heads on the beach are protected by a reef that offers a perfect swimming beach With plenty of coral and lots of sea turtles and fish for a great snorkeling experience And fishing is also popular on this property.
