About this property

A large private, free standing cottage/home with full amenities located 2 miles above Waimea Bay, including, in addition to the full bathroom, an added outdoor shower area, beautiful acre of green lawn and a TV room with 50' Plasma TV/DVD and quiet split Air Conditioning.

Away from the crowds, this is a beautiful, serene, gated property for the honeymooners, couples or quiet individuals. The acre and half is shared with the owners home on the same property. Less than 5 minutes to beach at a cool elevation. Surrounded by tropical fruit trees and plants including Mango, Banana, Avocado, Star Fruit, Tangerine, Lychee, Jack Fruit, Lemon, Pomolo, Macadamia and Coconut trees.

Sleeps 2 adults maximum, no exceptions (one king size bed + one single bed). We added a single bed located in the TV room for two singles traveling. The TV/Bed room can be private by closing the curtains. To maintain the special nature and experience of your stay; sorry, not suitable for children or pets and please, no smoking.

At the perfect elevation with cool Hawaiian breezes and away from noise and traffic this cottage/home gives you privacy with tinted glass windows, WiFi, cable, washer/dryer, microwave, dishwasher, AC and of course, plenty of aloha!

For the quiet, private persons you will find this to be a very special place to stay for a total retreat and recharged vacation. You will feel at home, private and at peace in this beautiful, tropical paradise.

We like to think of our place as a retreat from the world. A place to recharge, a base to return to, a feeling of peace and beauty. It is a home, away from home. Of course, we want the cottage to reflects this and wish our guests this experience.

We enjoyed our stay at this cottage very much. The cottage and grounds were large and beautiful. It was a wonderful stay. I especially loved picking fruit from the Starfruit tree! Inga and Rick were very kind.

Great property. Everything you may need is supplied. The house is well laid out, lots of comfortable furniture, large closets, the kitchen is well equipped and laid out well. The hosts are very nice folks and even though they live next door you never know they are there. 2 miles down the hill and you are at the beach. Food truck pod is at the bottom of the hill along with a nice Foodland grocery store. We enjoyed our stay and would book this property again.

The cottage was spacious and well equipped. Very comfy bed and the extra outdoor shower was great after a day at the beach. Rick and Inga were very pleasant and helpful.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this spacious private cottage located in the heart of the north shore of Oahu. Our hosts were very accommodating providing us with information about the local area. The cottage was very well equipped with all the conveniences of home and very comfortable and relaxing which is why a vacation is so important! We will definitely return to Pupukea and highly recommend our hosts and this Pupukea paradise!

We found Inga and Rick's guest home to be precisely as described, and their accommodation to our arrival/departure schedules was very much appreciated. The spacious VRBO is well maintained and fully appointed with appliances, basic supplies, beach gear, and conveniences to make relaxing easy. Owners Rick and Inga were terrific hosts, and they made sure we had everything needed for an enjoyable week on our 50th anniversary. We never needed to use the air conditioning as several ceiling fans and louvered windows allowed good air circulation during day and night. We were delighted to discover that the guest home was outrageously quiet compared to closer to North Shore and Turtle Bay, where we had stayed the prior week. We would highly recommend this VRBO for its location, relative seclusion, and accommodating hosts.

Beautifully built and creatively appointed, the large private cottage sits in a neighborhood removed from the busy North Shore. A lovely place for a quiet couple who want a retreat. Bird watching is wonderful and the hot/cold outdoor shower is an added perk. For those who love cooking, the kitchen is complete and well equipped. Foodland Market is close by.

Really nicely appointed open space guest house next to the owners home (Rick and Inge) but very private. Completely private lot surrounded by thick natural hedges and vegetation with a open and closing front drive in gate. It was a wonderfully peaceful sanctuary after tackling the bustle and insanity of the North Shore! The house is very well appointed with everything you can need (except food of course) and Rick and Inge were perfect hosts who were very hospital, kind and respectful of our privacy. We loved our stay there.

Location: Terrific distance from all North Shore spots and Foodland Shopping. Property is up against a valley on back boundary and located on a street that dead ends. Very Quiet and convenient. Condition: Very clean and very nicely decorated. Flooring, cabinets, countertops are very nice and in great condition. Drawers have self closers-which keeps noise down for the early riser. Amenities: Bed is terrific. Washroom is great. Outside shower stall is really nice for returns from beach....although it is private enough you could just take the daily shower out there and be secluded. Kitchen has all you might need for cooking. Beach chairs, umbrellas, ice chest, boogie boards etc provided for days on the beach. Rick was very helpful and responsive before and during our stay.

Rick and Inge have a beautiful and spacious cottage. We loved staying in this peaceful neighborhood that is well protected by lush foilage. The cottage is well stocked and leaves nothing to want including a full size washer and dryer. Quick drive and you are at many beaches on North Shore and a well stocked grocery store. We experienced a winter storm which was no problem for this cottage as the yard was well protected. I’d highly recommend this cottage if you enjoy privacy and peaceful surrounding while being close enough to the other beauties of the island. Thank you for having us.
