Beachfront Cottage on North Shore Oahu, Sleeps 4, $295/Night

Pete's Cottage is the perfect beach getaway. It's very private, in a secluded gated community, designated parking space, and as close to the beach as you can be, like ten feet away. We stayed in January, during some big swells, so watched surfers on monster waves while enjoying our morning coffee. The kitchen has great appliances and is well stocked. The living/dining room is comfortable, but we ate all our meals outside. Pete is a great host, not intrusive, and very responsive.

The location, the property, the peaceful aloha vibe.

Clear instructions, comfortable bed, beautiful location!

This is a must stay, gorgeous home and couldn’t be closer to the water.

This place completely surpassed my expectations. Everything about my stay was wonderful, and the host was great. Thank you!

The sound of the ocean helped me reset. Cozy cottage, no frills but clean and perfect.

Ocean front property. Owner is very accommodating. Kamananui cacao farm is right down the road so highly recommended the tour. No grocery store around it so we have to go to Haleiwa for groceries.

A slice of paradise. My 7/8 year old boys loved it. This was my husband and I’s second stay at the bungalow and it’s just as wonderful as I remembered. Far enough away from everything to be amazing. Close enough to be convenient. I didn’t want to leave and can’t wait to go back.

A slice of heaven on earth This place is a true gem.. old school experience, with a retro vibe to it The view from the cottage - magical! A hui hou… we will be back

We had a fabulous time! Our stay was super relaxing and fun. We booked again for next year and can’t wait to go back! Thank you Peter!

Gorgeous ocean views right from our patio! Beautiful sunsets and almost private beaches on both sides of the property. We saw turtles daily by the sea wall eating algae, mostly in the afternoons/evenings. We spent most days on the beach (towards the horse farm) as it was almost always empty and easily accessible through wading in the water. The beach on the other side (left of home) was also beautiful especially during sunset.Host was very helpful. Home had a brand-new kitchen remodel, very spacious, private parking space in a gated community, and an easy walk to coin laundry room with 3 washers/dryers as well as an outdoor clothesline. I did not rate it 5 stars only because we had to take out a bug or lizard daily most likely due to the windows and doors not being fully sealed. Also, the bathroom is mostly original, towels were a bit smelly due to moisture, and carpeting has some stains but otherwise a perfect stay. Thank you, Peter!

Very nice quiet place to stay.

We had a wonderful time staying in this cottage. Friendly community, beautiful grounds and pool, and you can't beat listening to the waves at nighthitting the showat night.

Love the quietness and all the flowers and trees surrounding each unit. My Dad loves to fish right off the seawall just steps out the patio.

This was our third time at the cottage. You can’t beat the location and being that close to the ocean. We spotted a lot of sea turtles swimming by. It was 10 years since our last visit. Since that time, the beach access has become more of a challenge due to beach erosion. We are in our mid 60s. My husband was able to make his way from the stairs leading to the beach, in the knee deep water along the rocky portion to take a swim. Although it was not far, I did not feel comfortable making an attempt. We chose to drive to various beautiful beaches that were close by. Although initially disappointed, the location of the cottage and having access to a pool, more than made up for not being able to walk to a beach. Peter is a great host. Always responds quickly and very helpful. We would definitely not hesitate to return to the cottage again.

This is a great place if you want to explore the North Shore! Beautiful

This cottage is all about the view and the sound of the waves. Has everything you need and more. It's private and you go to sleep listening to the waves crashing on the seawall. We even seen a few whales in the distance. The manager was very friendly and pointed out for us to keep an eye out for the monk seal, we seen it once. The pool is a nice plus. Nice king size bed facing the ocean also. Fully stocked kitchen.
