Mea Kanu Paradise, Beach Access, A/C, Sleeps 6

Nice accommodation for a family. Nice size closets 1.5 bath, washers and dryer, and close to shopping. Beach access within walking distance is not appropriate for young children. We would stay here again. Polynesian Cultural Center is only 5-8 minutes away by car. Host was easy to work with.

The place was cute and we loved having two bathrooms. The location was good, but there was no beach access — this might have been due to the time of year. I wish the listing would have mentioned that during certain times of the year, that you wouldn't have access to the beach, as it's why we picked this certain location. We had little kids with us, and while it worked, it might not be the best setup for families with small children. Our little ones made some noise and ended up annoying the upstairs tenants, but we were out of the rental for the majority of the time. The upstairs tenants were early risers, and seemed to be moving stuff around every once in awhile. Overall wasn't too noisy. Luckily, there were many great beaches within 5 minutes and overall was a great location and a great stay.

The place was beautiful and clean. Loved that it had air conditioning! I didn’t need to contact the property manager at all but the fact that they had someone available at all times if needed was great. Definitely recommend booking this spot!

Loved this place! Great location, grocery store and tacos right across street, clean, and great communication.

What a great little place! Location was in an awesome spot for what we were doing. The beach at the end of the road almost made it feel like we had beach front property. The home was spacious enough for a large family. Beds are super comfortable. The kitchen is very stocked and we were able to eat alot of our meals there. The washer and dryer made living on the beach for a week so easy. But the best thing about this place is it had everything you needed to have a perfect beach day. Coolers, wagon, umbrella, boogie boards, lots of things for kids to be able to play in the sand. It literally felt like we pulled up to our family home.

Wow, what a gem! Fantastic location, beautifully decorated and maintained. Host was proactive in communication, which I appreciated. My husband was pleasantly surprised, too, on such a great find on the North Shore! Btw, if staying here, you’ve GOT to get the famous macadamia nut pancakes Papa Ole’s for breakfast.

Clean and nicely updated beach rental. Nicely located on north shore. Close to lots of beautiful beaches and fun attractions. Mahalo

We enjoyed our week at this property. The beds were comfortable the AC worked great and loved being able to take a quick walk to watch the sun rise each morning. The kitchen was filled stocked with all the items we needed. The beach gear was great to be able to use. The down side of this place was that

We loved our stay here. The kids enjoyed being able to walk to the water and the accessibility to stores and other fantastic beaches was so convenient. They had everything you could need for a day at the beach in the rental which made it so we didn’t have to go out and rent any equipment. Very friendly and well maintained. We’d definitely stay here again!

We loved our house! It was perfect for our family of 5. The kids loved the little hideaway bed in the living room. Great kitchen amenities and we appreciated the washer and dryer. We would stay here again!

Taylor’s place was exactly what we needed! The provided amenities go above and beyond. The amount of beach gear was amazing! The area is perfect for those who don’t want to be in the city and don’t mind doing a little driving. Tons of great food trucks close by, only 5min from the Polynesian Culture Center, 20 from Kualoa Ranch, and a 5ish minute walk to the beach…which made this the perfect location for the family. We had THE BEST time and would definitely return!

We loved staying at Taylor's listing, the plant decor was awesome as we are plant lovers. Beds were comfortable and happy to see that the location had AC. We immensely enjoyed our stay in Hauula! Would love to stay there once again in the future!

Beautiful space, comfortable beds, close to many stores, and very responsive host!!

The property is perfect for a place to stay while you visit the rest of the Island. There is not an outdoor space, but we'd rather go to a beach anyways! Upstairs property are pretty quiet neighbors, and the unit itself cooled quickly with all the A/c Units. Beds were comfortable and there were plenty of towels and beach toys!

This place was about 20 mins North of Kualoa Ranch and about 5 mins away from the Polynesian cultural center. It was next to beautiful beaches and had plenty of towels for the shower and for the beach. It was also VERY well equipped in the kitchen with lots of plates, pots, pans, spatulas, etc. this allowed us to Cook breakfast every day while we there! Beautiful place and well furnished! Would stay again!

Our group of 6 friends stayed here for less than a week and had a wonderful time. The house was clean, cool, and quiet. There were plenty of kitchen appliances to use, and SO much beach gear. We are so thankful to have stayed here and we look forward to coming back in the future.

Fantastic accommodation!

Very nice.

This was a nice, clean place really close to the beach. We really enjoyed our stay!

Great place to stay! Everything kept up nice, comfortable neighborhood,easy to stay here and enjoy the beautiful island of Oahu!

We could not have enjoyed our stay more. Taylor welcomed us with a bright smile, a fresh pineapple and a stocked beer fridge. Everything inside the home was immaculate and inviting. From the Nespresso machine, to the bedside charging lamps and laundry machine … we felt pampered and right at home. We also loved how private the home was - just tucked on a quite street allowing for just a short drive to the best beaches on the island. Also, who can beat walking just a few steps to a quiet beach?! We are already planning our next trip back! Thanks for everything Taylor!

I did not stay at this listing. I stayed at Makua Sunrise. But, the booking host was terrible. She told us we could rent this property even though we had kids. I got a warning after paying for the property that we had to confirm that we didnt have kids. Instead of refunding me and starting over, she changed something on the backend of this site called Hostably, which ended up costing me over 20 hours of confusion and frustration prior to leaving. She was difficult and i was not able to track ANY of my trip through VRBO even though this is where i paid. It was all through a site I have never heard of and caused a LOT of confusion. I asked if she could match the price of this rental since this was 100% her fault and she refused. The house (Makua Sunrise) was fine, pretty much as advertised. But, I would beware of working with this host Brea.

My husband, my 18 y/o son, my 15 y/o daughter and myself stayed for five days at this wonderful little gem. The accommodations were perfect, allowing everyone privacy but still being close together. The owners really thought of everything, the amenities were spot on, from all the kitchen gadgets to beach gear. If we ever come back to O’ahu, we will definitely stay here again! Mahalo!

Obviously we loved Hawaii as a whole, but the location and accommodations of this property just made it feel like home. The area is perfect for those who want a more casual local feel rather than a busy city stay. We were able to walk down the street and access the beach or with a 5 minute drive in either direction a beach park. This location allowed us to access the North Shore locations that were on our must see or must do list with ease. The property had everything that was needed to make meals which is why we chose a house over a resort. It also had everything that was needed and then some to head out to the beach every day and feel completely prepared. The property care takers live up stairs and they are super helpful, accommodating and inviting. We could not recommend this property more highly. Book it for your next Oahu stay, you will not regret it.

Great place to stay. Taylor was very accommodating. Easy walk to drugstore and beach park. Clean. Will stay again.

Great listing, everyone in our party would stay here again. Can’t recommend this place enough!!!

Cute little area to stay! Comfortably fit 6 people. Walkable to some great restaurants and a convenience store.

Great clean place and location. Had everything we needed to feel like home.

Our stay was short but this place is just as described. We enjoyed our time there and found that they had everything we needed. The shower head was awesome. The amount of towels and just everything you could need in a vrbo was fantastic. I do wish the checkin time was earlier being that our checkout time was much earlier than check in but it’s no different than the hotel check in and out times. The close walk to the beach was short of amazing. If you’re ever on this side of Oahu, definitely book here. 5 min away from the PCC and Tamura’s is right down the street. You can’t beat that.

Our stay overnight was very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with pans and utensils for making breakfast in the morning. Then a short walk to the beach revealed a rocky shelf with many tide pools. I would definitely stay here again if staying in Hauula.

Our stay at this house exceeded all expectations. The location was perfect – just a short walk to the rocky beach where we were lucky enough to spot sea lions basking in the sun twice during low tide. The house itself was immaculately clean and beautifully updated, providing a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere. Being within walking distance to amenities and food made our stay even more convenient. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a dream getaway in Hawaii!

Pro/Con-The beach at the end of the street is so-so at best, but it is only a
