Why we opened NSL
Throughout our many travels we have made lasting relationships while staying at alternative lodging options and have been inspired by other world travelers along the way. We decide to open a bed and breakfast to providing a similar alternative accommodation where travelers can experience the beauty of Hawaii and all of its adventures while making new relationships and connecting with other travelers on a deeper level with the spirit of aloha. At North Shore Lookout our favorite meaning of aloha is "To consciously manifest life joyously in the present." With that said, our goal is to provide a place to relax and rejuvenate after your adventures and to help you find joy every day you stay with us. Aloha!
