Staycation
We stayed in late October of 2023. I know this property from living on Oahu. I was super excited to get to stay here for a staycation away from my condo in Waikiki with my family who was visiting from the mainland. -Celma gave us prompt communication when I text and called. -The house is an older beach house with older beach house character. Which is exactly what I expected and enjoyed. House is beautiful and in a beautiful beach location on the reef with swimming areas to the left and right of the beach. For swimming we preferred to drive to the near by public beaches. - Quiet location away from tourist beaches. We could hear the ocean waves while in the house. Some roosters and chickens ran the property around island style. In October we could see the sunset on the ocean when we walked to the end of the yard and also from the beach. We enjoyed waking up early to see the moonset. - October is the hottest most humid month on Oahu. AC and fans were very useful during this time but not always needed since ocean breeze flows. - house is stocked with many fans, washer/dryer, dishwasher and all the cooking/grilling necessities. Towels, sheets, beach towels and plenty of seating. No hidden charges or issues. We were promptly credited our deposit after stay and will definitely rent again.

Great location, underwhelming accomodations
Rented this house for a family reunion ahead of a family wedding. When the first of our party arrived it was later in the evening and exhausted from travel we didn't realize the house barely had sufficient power. Lights were flickering and we quickly had no hot water supply just from washing hands and rinsing dishes. The next morning we realized the appliances (stove/oven, microwave, dishwasher, W/D) would turn on but none worked. No answer to the office line as it was the weekend, and didn't receive a text response to the emergency number for 4 hours (8am-12pm). Turns out, the cleaning lady also had issues with the dryer but this was not conveyed to us. The contact came by later that day and informed us there was an issue, but an electrician couldn't be there until the following morning at 8am. So from Saturday check in until Monday 9am we were without sufficient power to the house. That meant cold showers, no ability to cook or heat anything up, flickering lights. Someone from the company joked it was 'like we were camping'. At the price per night, that is unacceptable. We spent most of our first few days not at the house given a lack of electricity. We were informed there were no other available properties to switch to if the issue could not be resolved. It was remedied within 30 mins of being out at the property though we discovered it and informed them. We never were given a reason; the group concensus was they forgot to disable the power limiter to the house.

Great ocean views but lacked some basics
We liked the place and the location, but this place didn’t provide is with soap to wash our hands or for the shower. That’s so small a thing, but it was so disappointing to have to go out to buy that. There was lots of hand sanitizer around though. The other thing is the place had a charcoal grill, but it’s not worth spending over $20 for the charcoal and lighter fluid. We did like that the kitchen had everything we needed to do some simple meals. It was very nice having 3 bathrooms and 4 twin bed too. The patio had a nice large table for our evening dinners and watching the sunset. But at first we were hesitant in eating our dinner outside because there were several cats roaming around on the patio, but with a water bottle and some water we were able to enjoy our meal without the cats around. All in all, we enjoyed our stay here.

My birthday trip
I think it suited our needs to a tee. We are 7 adults: my brother and his wife, my three sisters, me and my wife. Since it is my 80th birthday this year, I got to choose where we went. The trip overall was great and your property contributed to the overall success. By the way, the air conditioner in the downstairs bedroom with king-sized bed does work.

Fabulous view
The view was amazing. We saw whales from the deck each night. The yard is big enough to play games. The charcoal barbecue was great to have. We used it a few evenings and enjoyed dinner around the outdoor table. We used the kitchen to prepare side dishes and it had everything we needed. There were 6 adults staying and the house was large enough to accommodate all of us. The house was just as described and had everything we needed. The house is nicely located, close to many food trucks and fruit stands to the north. Just to the south there are beautiful beaches, Ted’s Bakery, and other places to eat, shop and rent ocean equipment, and charter rentals in the cute town of Haleiwa. The check in instructions were easy and there was plenty of parking for our 3 rental vehicles. The only downside, if there is such a thing, considering how amazing this property is, is the rocky beach. However, we did walk the beach most every morning and we enjoyed the most amazing sunsets every evening. This house and location are spectacular!

Kawela 503
The beautiful beachfront location is what attracted us to this house and we weren’t disappointed. But the cleanliness upon arrival left a lot to be desired, there was a shortage of towels (quickly remedied) and for a house supposed to accommodate 8 there was insufficient seating (lounge or eating), and the crockery was a real mishmash. Cracked floors tiles in the kitchen and a bathroom, slippery wooden decking, poor quality cooking utensils, the main TV was on its last legs (spots everywhere) do I need to go on. So we felt quite let down by the premises themselves and frankly could not recommend it to anyone unless the owners spend some maintenance $s on the property and get it up to a decent standard.

This house was a great house for our group, we very much enjoyed the location and the outdoor space, plus the couple that were lucky enough to stay in the master bed were very happy with the view from their room and their amazing ensuite. Highly recommend and will definitely be back again.

Great location
We shared the house for a week with another family. It was a good size for our group of 8. We loved the north shore and being able to easily access the east and west coasts. It's a short drive to groceries, a fruit stand and the kahuku market. The beach out front was great for the kids to explore when the water was calmer and there are several other beaches nearby that are safe for swimming when the waves are higher. Overall it was a great place!

Great family vacation home
The property was very clean and as described. The upstairs loft worked great as a 4th bedroom/sleeping area. The beach area was very quiet and the tidal pools were great for the kids. As others noted the kitchen equipment needs to be upgraded such as sharper kitchen knives and pans with matching covers. We noticed that some of the outdoor furniture shown in the picture was in use by the other rental house next door therefore not available to us.

Great location, close to beaches!
We had a wonderful week. The house had most we needed, except a can opener. It would have been nice if the water and ice maker we’re working on the fridge door. Pots, pans, and utensils could be replaced, as they have seen better days. The shaded deck with the ocean view is where we hang out whenever we were at the house.

Great space for extended family
8 people. Elderly parents, four adults, Two kids 16 &10 had plenty of space for sleeping, eating and lounging. The house had 3 full bathrooms, three bedrooms and a sleeping loft with two twin beds which was a perfect space for kids. The kitchen area was spacious and accommodating we used the fridge and stove top and all worked well. The outdoor space was our favorite. The table and chairs and built in bench was our favorite morning coffee and evening place to chat and hang out. The upstairs shower had amazing water pressure. My other family members said the downstairs shower had weak water pressure. The two downstairs bedrooms (1 king, 2 twins) share the bathroom. There are two bathrooms upstairs. The individual a/c’s work well but not quickly. When we arrived it was very warm in the house, uncomfortably so. The upstairs space is by far the warmest space and it took a full 12-16 hrs to cook it to a comfortable temp. Four of us was upstairs. You can open the slider upstairs but defeats the a/c problem. The fans in the primary helped. We do wish the bed in the primary was higher off the ground and larger. The room can easily accommodate a king. The living room furniture was basic outdoor furniture and not all that comfortable and our chosen place to sit was outside until the bugs came. The house does have multiple bud fans and small portable fans which helps move around the air in the house where there is no a/c to help circulate air when your gone and the house is locked up. Including closing and locking windows. The entrance to the house is very hidden and we almost missed it. It’s narrow and between to chain link gate openings. The driveway is narrow but leads to the four properties managed by the same host. You do get two parking spaces. The stairs leading down to the beach were in good condition. The beach is very rocky and a bit on a slant and was hard for my elderly parents to walk on. We did not go down to the beach in front of the house but a couple times in one week. Kids did enjoy searching tide pools. The view was amazing- the sunset is just left of the house and beautiful! The trees were plentiful and provided shade and were so pretty to look at. The houses are close together but we were all gone at different times and didn’t seem to cross paths much or hear each other. The outdoor shower was the most FAV amenity on the property. It was used by all the men to shower and as well to rinse feet off from sand. Limited beach toys.
