All amenities are there in the cottage and on the property. The only thing you will need are groceries which can be bought on the way or 2 miles past the cottage at Tamuras Market.

Discrimination/ Rude/ Accusatory Owner

I had an encounter with a lady, who identified herself as the owner of the unit I booked. Her name was Teri.She was upset because my sister was smoking in a non smoking area (on the grass near the ocean wall) and was seen spitting on the grass.Teri very rudely said "she better not be smoking in my house" I assured her that she wasn't smoking inside, that is why she is smoking outside. She asked for my name (I think it was because I am local and she don't recall having a polynesian name on the application.) after telling her my name, she said something like, "if I find out she's been smoking upstairs... " I interupted her and assured her my sister did not and will not smoke in her place. I am a non-smoker, I wouldn't allow her to. She then asked "When are you leaving?" I wonder if she treats all her guests with such rudeness? This interaction was not necessary as the security guard already handled the situation prior to her intervening.There are no "No Smoking" signs posted anywhere and my sister was more than 20 feet away from the building. The property is beautiful, the view from our window of the ocean and the sunrise was so nice. You can hear the sound of the waves crashing on the shore at night. Its unfortunate that all that beauty can be cancelled by peoples ugly attitudes. I didn't want to stay after that encounter, but I already paid for it. My sister felt bad as it was unintentional. She is 65y/o walks with a cane and has mental illness.I Felt discriminated against.

Perfection!

We wanted somewhere to stay on the north shore that would feel more local and be near the ocean. This little condo delivered. When they say ocean views they aren’t kidding. The beach was 20 feet from the windows! The unit was clean, provided all necessary amenities, comfortable beds, embraced the beach vibe, and what a view! My boys loved that there were twin needs so they didn’t have to share a bed. Super happy with the stay, would definitely book again.

Beachfront paradise

Terrie is such a warm and welcoming host, treats you like Ohana. Excellent location and very nicely supplied with everything you need. Just bring your Aloha spirit and you will enjoy immensely. Walk out the door and in just a few steps and you’re standing in the sand. The views, including the sunrises are incredible. Mellow waves, swimming is easy. Reserved parking, security guards 24/7, laundry rooms, etc. We will be back for sure, mahalo

Everything we asked for

Great location, nice beach, very clean comfortable room. Only reason for 4 stars instead of 5: Cable TV did not work, (ROKU worked, so not a huge deal) and construction on the large hive hotel was a bit annoying. Would stay here again after construction is complete, though.

Beautiful beach front getaway

We stayed here three nights! It was a perfect stay. We enjoyed going to the beach daily and saw sea turtles every morning! The sea turtles like to swim within the vicinity! Beautiful morning views and sound of waves was perfect! Thank you for a wonderful stay!

This place is in a perfect location, right on the beach and close to Jurassic park ranch. The place itself is a little outdated and needs some renovation in my opinion. Everything else was great.

This place is not for everyone. The positives: 1. The view from the unit is amazing. 2. The ocean breeze at night and the sound of the waves were excellent. 3. Having the beach so close was great. 4. The unit itself was clean. It had everything you needed The negatives: 1. The building and unit are old and not kept up. Other reviews give specifics. 2. There was loud construction which according to prior reviews has been going on for years. 3. It is very hot without AC. 4. The big windows allow guests in the units next to you to see everything you are doing. If you close curtains for privacy then you get very hot! 5. It was VERY noisy! With windows open you hear noise from surrounding units 6. Jacqui was passive aggressive. I sent a message about the lack of privacy, the heat and bright outdoor lights that were shining into the bedroom window. She sent a response saying that we were the first guests in 15 years who complained--we read prior reviews about privacy so we weren't. She then showed up at the Unit at 9am unannounced, and when i asked about the outside lights shining in the bedroom she said they cant be turned off for security and are only on 7pm til 7am. This also was not true...They were on 24/7 until another guest complained then they were out 24/7. She offered black out curtains and another fan but that wouldn't help. If you are fine with a run-down noisy very hot beach house right on the beach with amazing views and a nice ocean breeze then you will love it.

Wonderful, relaxing, best place on Oahu!

We were lucky enough to stay in this exceptionally clean, very nicely decorated and amazingly located condo for 4 nights in August 2024. From the view, the basically private beach to the turtles who appear in the evening and leave at sunrise, the trip could not have been better!! We were not interested in the hustle and bustle of Waikiki. We wanted to be able to go there but not stay there and we are so grateful we made that decision and we’re lucky enough to stay here..

Lovely Getaway

We enjoyed staying in this cottage! It’s cozy and right on the beach. If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of Waikiki, this is a great option. It’s on the second level of the cottage, great ocean breeze, and we truly enjoyed seeing the sea turtles come up on the beach during the day to sun and at night to sleep. It’s a bit of a drive if you’re wanting to do anything in the Waikiki area, but if you’re interested in the North Shore, Polynesian Cultural center, Waimea Falls, Kailua, etc this is a great location. There is a grocery store nearby, and the cottage had pots, pans, dishes, etc you’re interested in cooking some of your meals there. Laundry supplies were provided for the shared laundry space. The only negative was the cramped parking spot. It is a challenge to park if you have a full size rental or larger. We would stay here again if we visit the island in the future.

Seaside surprise

We were a little apprehensive when we first pulled into our assigned parking space, but once we got inside, we were pleasantly surprised at how really lovely it was. Wonderful seaside decor, very clean and comfortable with everything you would need to enjoy the beach right outside your window. The breeze and the sound of the ocean while resting in bed was perfect after a long day of adventure. Mahalo

Perfection

What a dream location! It was our first trip to Hawaii. There’s no better place stay! The location is ideal, if you want to stay in the peace and quiet of the North Shore. The Hukilau Marketplace is less than 10 minutes down the road with some great food trucks. The beach is beautiful and quiet. Often we had the beach to ourselves! The best part is falling asleep to the crashing waves and the breeze of the cool trade winds.

About the host

Hosted by Terrie or Jacqui

Being Raised on Oahu and now living in Oklahoma, this cottage will bring me home. It is like stepping back in time to be there watching the turtles and whales through the window in my living room. I come to relax and float in the clear, glass like, ocean which is just steps away. One must see to believe and experience to know.

Why they chose this property

Perfect to get away from the hussle an bustle of Waikiki. Once you visit Waikiki it is perfect to drive back to Old Hawaii.

What makes this property unique

You get a well stocked, better view, equipped beach cottage equal to any hotel but as a lesser cost.
