About this property

Paradise Found at Hawaiian Princess, Makaha!

Aloha! If you're looking for an authentic Hawaiian experience, stunning beaches, local eateries, and a peaceful atmosphere far from the Waikiki hustle and bustle, you've found it!

This one-bedroom, one-bath condo at Hawaiian Princess in Makaha, on Oahu’s beautiful Leeward Coast, offers breathtaking views of the beach, ocean, and sunsets right from your lanai.
The condo includes free parking, free Wi-Fi, and access to the building’s amenities, including a pool, hot tub, tennis, pickleball, BBQ, and ping pong table. Inside, you'll find a queen bed in the bedroom and a queen sofa bed in the living room. The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need, including a dishwasher, fridge, microwave, toaster, coffeemaker, air fryer, Instant Pot, blender, and more. We also provide linens, beach towels, chairs, mats, boogie boards, snorkeling gear, a beach umbrella, a cooler, and even binoculars for whale watching in season. The condo also has two TVs, ceiling fans, stand fans, and a washer/dryer for your convenience.

The building has a roof-mounted, water-cooled central Air Conditioning system. Please note, however, that it does not function like mainland AC systems and will not make the condo super cold. Most guests find the condo very comfortable with open windows, natural cross-ventilation, trade winds, ceiling fans, and stand fans, which keep the space fresh with tropical breezes. If you prefer super cool indoor temperatures, this may not be the condo for you.

The Princess Building is a smoke-free, pet-free property, and we have an on-duty security guard 24/7 for peace of mind.

Note that Waikiki and Honolulu are about an hour’s drive away and you may see homeless camps along the route. However, the Hawaiian Princess is a secure, gated building, and we encourage you to read reviews from others to make your own decision about staying on this side of the island.

For local dining, be sure to try Beachhouse 604, a guest favorite with oceanfront seating, and Spicy House in Maili, known for its excellent Thai food. Fine dining is just a short drive away in Ko'Olina and at Disney’s Aulani Resort. You’ll also find shopping and a water park in nearby Kapolei. Surf enthusiasts will love Makaha Surfing Beach, home to international competitions, just down the coast.

This is the ideal destination for those seeking a relaxing, laid-back vacation in a stunning setting, with the opportunity to witness marine life in its natural habitat, including turtles, dolphins, and whales (in season), while creating beautiful memories along the way!

Mahalo and we look forward to host you!

Spring Break
Another great stay at Hawaiian Princess! This was our first time in this unit, and it was wonderful. The beach chairs, towels, and snorkeling gear were much appreciated. We love this part of the island and will be putting this unit at the top of our list for our next trip to Makaha.

Beautiful beach!
The apartment had the best view! We could see sea turtles while eating on the deck. Great beach, snorkeling and breathtaking sunsets. Everything was as advertised. If your vacation plans are hanging by the beach and pool this is the place for you. It is a long drive with a lot of traffic for any sites or excursions. We don’t mind driving so that was not an issue for us. The surrounding neighborhood feels poor with lots of poverty present. However, the resort is gated and we did feel secure.

Peace and happiness
This place was off the normal area we had been used to. No big waikiki crowds or beachs with no room to move. This place offered the good sized condo with an amazing view along with supplies for your every need at a fair price. My familly and I enjoyed what this stay had to offer.

Nice place a bit out of the way
Nice building, older but well kept. Great beach with nice beach equipment available in the unit. Unit was as described. Area is a bit out of the way and neighborhood is a bit run down but on site security and fencing made us feel safe Great option for those who would like to get away from big crowds and enjoy beach with less people around.

Spectacular ocean front unit with amazing sunsets
We arrived at the unit and check in was easy and stress free. Both of us were blown away with how clean, modern and fully stocked space was. We had a comfortable and enjoyable week there. We really enjoyed going down to the beach at sunset and visiting with the other residents at the BBQ. The hosts thought of providing everything we might need including beach chairs, umbrella, snorkel gear, big ice chest, kids sand toys (if needed) and the kitchen had absolutely everything needed to cook, incl air fryer and Instant Pot!We saw many whales out on the horizon with the provided good quality binoculars.We will definetly be back again.

Beautiful Getaway
The apartment was exactly like the listing images, clean and had absolutely everything we needed throughout our trip to feel at home. Beautiful views from the lanai and a nice beach right outside the property that was never busy compared to other beaches. For even more scenic beaches Makua Beach 5 minutes away is spectacular. I will say that if you’re looking to explore the entire island throughout your trip this location is a bit far away from the rest of the island destinations (1-1.5hrs from the eastern coast), and there were not many sit down restaurants available nearby. However, if looking for a relaxing beach vacation with a few trips to other areas mixed in, it is the perfect location not being too busy. The full sized kitchen was also perfect for cooking your own meals, which also works out with Hawaii’s high prices. Overall I would definitely recommend this condo with the previously mentioned caveat in mind.

Great place
Great place with everything as described in the listing plus lots of extra little bonuses. Faces a lovely soft sand beach that was never crowded. Building is older but in good shape. Seems to have a mix of permanent residents and short term rentals with everyone very friendly. Can walk to longs (drug store) and magic mountain shave ice although not a beautiful walk. Tamura supermarket maybe a 10 minute drive has reasonable selection although not the fanciestEverything in the apartment is in great condition. Good sized table and 4 chairs on the lanai so we ate every meal out there. Plenty of high quality beach towels, regular towels. 3 quality beach chairs and a beach umbrella plus lots of kids beach stuff under the bench on the lanai. Small cooler as well. Kitchen far better equipped than average rental with plenty of tableware, cooking supplies, even storage containers.Great communication with Sweti

Great stay in a beautiful place!
The place was clean and well stocked with everything we could want for trips to the beach and anything else. Renee was easy to reach, plus provided lots of tips on places to visit and shop for amenities. The most amazing was the view from the balcony (we saw turtles!) and the sound of the waves first thing in the morning and last thing at night. Very enjoyable!

Beautiful little beach condo.
The place was clean and modern. It has everything you needed . Check in was easy, beautiful view from the balcony. I was disappointed that the bed room was in the back not by the balcony but it was not the problem because we can still hearing the waves all night long. The only down sides for us was it was very far from all vegan restaurants For my husband and the neighborhood before the condo was a lot of homeless. But don’t worry the beach by the condo was kind of private. So there is no homeless all over the beach like the other beaches .the beach is very beautiful and not very much people on the beach . We hanged out by the beach and felt like we got the whole beach to ourselves but the the waves is very strong if you are not a good swimmer like me , don’t try to be in the water . I saw some people tried to go in the water and they got swept under the waves several times. Overall the condo itself was fantastic and the view from the balcony was hard to beat .
