The beach is incredible, safe and fun for all ages, and never very crowded. The house is well stocked with amenities and we were able to grill up some excellent meals and clean our clothes. Not very big but lots of sleeping options if you are ok with sleeping in the living room too, the futons were very nice for options. Also, having boogie boards, chairs and all made the beach even more enjoyable. Along with the detailed and interesting welcome booklet, Mark has thought of pretty much everything you'll need to have a great vacation! ##### Jackson C.

The house was adequate, but a bit dated. If the house had better furniture (couches and beds) it would help out a lot, but I would still recommend this property. The location is fantastic. The beach is a short walk, and it is amazing, and quiet. Having the toys to take to the beach seems like a minor deal, but it was a huge help. Overall, I would recommend this property, and I would stay there again. ##### Robby H.

Mark and Holly were very kind and helpful hosts. The beach at Waimanalo was perfect--beautiful, not crowded, great boogie boarding for amateurs like us, even caught more fish here than anywhere else. Used gear everyday. Overall location fantastic, too--close to Hanauma Bay and Kailua amenities. Slept with windows open, woke to roosters crowing. Fit our family of five beautifully. Only downside---leaving. ##### Jennifer T.

Mark answered any questions we had and left info i n a binder that was really helpful to find extra things to do. I will stay here again next time I come to Oahu! The owner of the property has 2 dogs that are both well behaved and helped us feel more at home since we didn't bring our dogs with. The home is within walking distance to the beach and the neighborhood felt safe. This is not a resort it is a home and we felt at home here. We grilled, cooked, kept groceries, and drinks, and snacks at the house saving us from having to eat or every meal or snack. Also has a nice deck area for grilling or hanging out. We enjoyed our stay! ##### Anthony Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dylan M. 8 Dec 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great off-the-beaten-path location for a family We had a fantastic time in Hawaii and this rental was a big part of making that happen. It was great being off the beaten path a bit but still able to get to the North Shore or western side of the island in less than an hour. Having a very beautiful and almost empty beach, at least during the week, just a 3-4 minute walk away was great! Our kids were at the beach daily, either before or after our island adventure for the day, and really enjoyed taking the boogie boards out into the 2-3 foot waves. The rental was well setup, had everything we needed. Mark and Holly were both very personable and accommodating. If we make it back we'll most certainly stay here again! ##### Dylan M.

If you are looking for a quiet neighborhood in easy walking distance from a beautiful secluded beach with perfect boogie boarding waves and pillow soft sand surrounded by Hawaii's beautiful Nature, stay here. The house was wonderful. All the appliances worked, the yard was beautiful. We enjoyed the boogie boards, surf boards, snorkel gear, and hot tub. We found all the earlier complaints about the property's dogs or messy yard to be untrue. The only time we heard from the owner was either when we asked him a question or the Packers scored a touchdown. You'll need a car if you want to easily reach most of the tourist sites like Hanauma Bay or Pearl Harbor. ##### Jeff A.

You can have 4 more people with the 2 futons in the livingroom so lots of room. It was comfortable and homey. The available boogie boards, snorkel gear, surf boards, and kyaks were awesome. The location was excellent. The beautiful beach was just a short walk down the road and the hottub was an added bonus. The location of the property is only about a 20-30 min drive to downtown Waikiki and an hour to the North Shore. Keeps you out of the hussle and bussle of the city but close enough to zip over. The owner is super friendly, available if needed, and open to suggestions. We would definitely stay here again. ##### Jennifer S.

However the Hosts who live below were vary accommodating and gracious to our needs. The kitchen was easy to use. the dishwasher needed repair. It would be nice to have a second 1/2 bathroom. We had 5 adults and 2 kids. Location to Waimanalo beach is its best feature. Plenty of water toys for the beach. Bring your own life vest. ##### david J.

In ways… I struggle to give our stay a 4, but technically speaking, everything was satisfactory. It was just old and tired. The floors, kitchen, & bathroom were clean, but the BBQ needs a thorough cleaning. The linens & towels were clean but very used. The fabric shower curtain was mildewy (granted there was a new, clean plastic liner). The kitchen supplies (pots, pans etc) were a mix of cracked teflon coated pieces. Screens & screen doors need attention. That said, we’d stay there again because of the LOCATION! Mark was always available to ask questions of. It’s noisy during the day but nights were quiet. The beach and beach amenities were great. Waimanolo is a great location from which to explore the entire island. And its easy to just spend a whole day down the road at one of Oahu’s best swimming beaches! Things that would have made this a 5: new screen door to lanai, screens on windows attached, clean grill, new futon mattress (one has a spring pushing through), non-corroded shower curtain rod, new shower curtain, beach towels, decent cookware, easily operable blinds, just general ongoing maintenance beyond surface cleaning. ##### Theresa S.

What we ended up with was a perfect vacation and place to stay for our family week. This is not to say the place is perfect, but the gorgeous mountains in back of us, the quiet nice neighborhood and 2 blocks (yes 2) to a gorgeous beach you just can't beat. The house was perfect for our family with a great layout and everything from the kitchen to the bath to the beach stuff was fully stocked. With the upstairs lanai we felt safe sleeping with the door open and getting the cross breeze. I would advise that the owner add smoke detectors to the bedroom. And yes the yard was a mess but the Koi fish were some of the most beautiful I have ever seen. My whole family loved this low key beach pad and would stay again for sure. The owner was very nice and helpful too. Also yes we saw the dogs but they looked super sweet and if they ever did bark it wasn't prolonged and not a problem at all. The Koi pond also provides a nice white noise to the other neighborhood sounds. This place is ideal for those who would prefer a more authentic experience over having the more commercial experience of a big hotel. Thank you for a great week! ##### catherine r. Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Miranda S. 18 Sept 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Not what I expected... The add did not explain very well the property or location. The path to the hot tub was difficult to get to even though the dogs were friendly but not what I expected. There was a massive ant and gecko problem. The cable tv didnt work very well kept cutting out loosing service. There was trash under the master bedroom bed. When asked about possible refund there was not one and the owner was not very friendly. Not till after it was time to check out. Dogs barked at all hours of the day and night. It was not on the beach like we thought when we arrived its 6 blocks from there did not have much amenities for the bathroom. Overall just glad we found a place to stay but not like this. ##### Miranda S.
