About this property

1-Bed, 1-Bath - Walk to Beach. Inquire for March.

Private, detached, gorgeous, newly built, fully equipped, one bedroom guest house ready and waiting to be booked by you! Superb location! Short walk to beautiful parks and beaches and minutes drive to historic Haleiwa Town.

This incredible, newly constructed modern home is located on our property in a quiet Haleiwa beach community. Absolutely perfect for a vacationing couple, business traveler, or Island adventurer.

A private entrance welcomes our guests into a gorgeous open-concept living room/kitchen area, large bedroom with queen sized bed and spacious closet, and an immaculate bathroom with over-sized enclosed shower.

A private, covered lanai offers an amazing space to relax with your morning coffee and view a spectacular Hawaiian sunset with a glass of wine after a busy (or relaxing) day in paradise.

If you’re so inclined to cook a meal, our modern kitchen includes all the essentials (and lots of extras): full size stove/oven, full sized refrigerator, microwave, and dishwasher as well as coffee maker, toaster, and blender. The “in-house” washing machine/dryer and iron/ironing board will only help to make your stay easy and carefree.

Our beautiful, over-sized enclosed shower as well as our comfy bath towels, supply of shampoo/conditioner/body wash and hair dryer will make you feel right at home.

And while the ceiling fans and tropical breezes are usually enough to keep you comfortably cool, the spacious air conditioned master bedroom with a great queen sized bed will certainly help you sleep like a baby!

Our comfortable furnishings, essential amenities, and Island decor will make your stay at the Wave House a memorable one.

Guests are welcomed to enjoy the use of the beach chairs, beach towels, and small cooler on day trips. And when you’re not “out and about” cable TV and WiFi are just another part of the perfect paradise package.

My family, which includes myself, my wife, our two kids, and a very friendly dog (who is in a separate gated area during the day and in our house at night), live on this property.

We look forward to welcoming great people to our guest house and sharing our love for this Island Paradise.

Be advised: The private entrance to this rental is only accessible by climbing a staircase.

Our guests can begin their North Shore adventure as soon as they walk out the door. If morning exercise is part of your routine, then head around the corner to Kaiaka Park and walk/jog/run among spectacular trees with incredible river, mountain, and ocean views. Stop along the way to watch the sea turtles and check out the tide pools. An awesome way to start your day! If a coastline walk is more your style, head down the block to our gorgeous neighborhood beach where, more likely than not, you’ll have the ocean to yourself. This leisurely walk might just bring you face to face with more than one majestic sea turtle. What a way to start your day!

Since the North Shore is home to some of the most famous beaches and surf spots in the world, our guests are extremely lucky to be within walking distance of one of the best. Just a short walk from the house, explore famous Ali’i Beach, home of the first event in the Van’s Triple Crown of from November thru December. Go! Rent a board! Surf where the Pro’s surf!

But if surfing isn’t quite up your alley, you can always try kayaking, jet skiing, stand-up paddle boarding, snorkeling, diving, sailing, kite surfing, whale watching (in season) OR horseback riding, hiking, sky diving, shark cage diving, zip lining, ATVing, OR just picnic and sun bathe!

Historic, picturesque Haleiwa Town is home to brightly colored boutiques, galleries, surf shops, restaurants, and more recently, some of the best “food truck fare” anywhere! All this and a two minute drive from our guest house!

Drive a little further “up the road” and be astounded by the pristine coastline. Visit beautiful Waimea Bay, hike Waimea Valley, swim under a spectacular waterfall, check out Sharks Cove, be mesmerized by the waves at Banzai Pipeline, and enjoy one of the most spectacular sunsets anywhere at famous Sunset Beach.

If you decide to leave the intoxicating North Shore, it’s about an hour drive to the hustle and bustle of famous Waikiki.

But before you go, make it a point to visit the Polynesian Cultural Center for a one of the best luau dinners and spectacular shows on the Island. And an afternoon at the Dole Plantation is a only for the mouth watering pineapple ice cream!

“Slippahs” (aka flip-flops) are the preferred mode of local transportation. However, remember to bring sneakers or walking/hiking shoes. You’ll see many locals and tourists “getting around town” on bicycles, surf boards, paddle boards, boogie boards, canoes, and kayaks. Luckily, our guests can rent all of the above in Haleiwa 😎

The BUS, Oahu’s public transportation system, is actually a good way to get around the Island if you opt not to get a rental car.

* New high speed fiber internet. 720 Mbps download, 274 Mbps upload.

A slice of paradise
Tucked away in the north shore is this little slice of paradise, a cosy retreat perfect for two. With views of the mountains and if you are lucky, the milky way (when the clouds disappear). We had the luxury of staying for 3 weeks in this home, and didn't want to leave!! Minutes from beaches and parks, plus a lovely stroll into the quaint Haleiwa, which still retains it's old time charm. The house had everything we needed and looked exactly like the pictures, clean, warm and inviting. Sharon and Mike are lovely and attentive hosts who ensure you have everything you need, we appreciated all the extra bits like beach chairs, umbrellas, cool bags and ice packs for trips to the local beach. Whether it's a day or a month, you will feel right at home. We can't wait to come back!

WOW! I don’t even know where to start… as the title states, everything was perfect. Communication with the hosts, location of the property (both proximity to town and the beach), the condo itself with balcony, the “extras” they have available (detergent, beach chairs, snorkel gear, umbrella, etc), easy parking — just everything! The bed was very comfortable and temperature in the apartment was great. There are fans and an air conditioner so you can pick and choose what to use when. We can’t wait to come back! Thanks for everything!

This property was perfect for my husband and I! It was very clean, had all the amenities, and super close to shops/food/beaches/hikes. We ended up preferring the neighborhood beach as it was easy to walk to, quiet, and great swimming spot with a few sea turtles.

Wonderful Stay
We enjoy the space and how close (just a few minutes) we were to Haleiwa. We didn't get to enjoy the beach down the road from the place because of all the activities we had planned. The only negative to our stay is the heat if you are coming during the summer. There is a AC unit in the bedroom but unfortunately this doesn't help in the main room of the place. To keep costs down, they don't want you running the AC unit while you are gone so each night when we returned, the main room was extremely hot. Even with running the AC unit and keeping the bedroom door open, it still felt like a sauna. My recommendations to the owner would be to install a AC unit in the main room. Other than that, our stay was wonderful and quiet. Definitely recommend this place for a single person or a couple.

A perfect stay
This was our second time staying with Mike and Sharon and once again our stay was fantastic. The house is as beautiful, comfortable and clean as the pictures show. Mike, Sharon, their kids and even their guests are all very respectful of the privacy of the VRBO unit. We didn't hear the family at all during our stay but when we did contact them they were very responsive and helpful. Besides the accommodations, the location is FANTASTIC! The neighborhood has two close parks, its own beach (just blocks away) and we walked into town multiple times, its that close. We will definitely be back, again!

Great North Shore stay in Haleiwa!
Beautiful property, clean, modern, fully-equipped. Loved the balcony, watching all the local activity. Great location in Haleiwa - Adjacent to a large park, another large park just down the block the other way, fantastic beach a block away (swim, boogie-board, see turtles), a world-class surfing beach just a few minutes walk the other way. We managed without a car - walked into town everyday, took the bus to further places (Honolulu, Dole Plantation, etc.). Our only negative was the noise - although it is located in a nice, neighborly "quiet Haleiwa beach community", it is not a quiet area - The property is adjacent to a fairly busy road, and also to a beach access road with the occasional vehicle with extraordinarily-loud-thumping music going by. But you won't find a better spot to stay in Haleiwa!

Beautifully appointed one-bedroom, first floor apartment with private access via external stairs. First class kitchen facilities. Clothes washer and dryer were great. Adequate bathroom with large shower. Short walk to beach approx 150 m, great for swimming and saw a turtle! Free parking at front gate of property was super. Felt safe in this street. Air con only in bedroom and AC was too noisy leave running, so relied on ceiling fans - very warm inside in late afternoon and early evening. Owner left us alone but easy to contact if needed and provided the information we needed. Really enjoyed our stay.

We love the town Haleiwa so many food options from good food trucks to restaurants. Lots of shops too. We found it easy to explore the North Shore. Hosts live downstairs and we’re friendly.

Awesome!
Just got back from 2 weeks in HI and this place rocked! I was looking for a different experience after staying in Waikiki for 5 years and chose this beautiful place. It was in a quiet, safe neighborhood, close walk to the beach, quick drive into Old Haleiwa; the lanai was great too. Mike & Sharon were so nice to deal with through PM & in person. Super helpful and even when we had an issue with something in the unit, they were so quick to help! The unit was super clean, and it had everything, I mean everything, you could think of to make your trip a great one from beach items to home items etc. It was a home away from home and I already miss it. Wish I could have stayed even longer. This isn't about the unit, but if you're looking to get around to sight see or drive into Waikiki etc, plan for somewhat long trips in the car (i.e. from the condo to Waikiki it took about 40-hour). I normally drive around a lot when I visit Oahu, but for some reason, I know we spent a lot more time driving in the car to get to destinations on the East & south side (which is fine). Some of the roads were closed or just had some high peak summer tourist traffic since this unit is by some great spots like Dole and Sharks Cove, Laniakea Beach, Waimea Bay etc. Plan ahead with time and you'll be fine. Either way it's the destination not the journey! Anyway, don't think too long about it. If you're looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of Waikiki or just truly have a relaxing experience, this place is perfect for you. Trust me, you'll love it!

North shore oasis
We enjoyed our stay at Mike’s. It was our first time staying in North Shore and we loved how serene it was compared to the hustle and bustle of Waikiki. There’s a nice beach just a couple minutes walk away and you can follow that beach for a mile into downtown—it’s a beautiful sunny walk! Mike was very prompt with responding to any questions we had and restocking us during our long stay. There were even two yoga mats and a blender to our pleasant surprise, and we used them to start every morning. The unit is directly upstairs but we never had any issues with noise except for the occasional fire truck down the street. We cooked a few times and loved eating on the lanai. The internet was fine for my numerous zoom calls while working remotely. We would not hesitate to stay with Mike & family again next time we come to Oahu!
