Our family of 20 spent an awesome week over Christmas. The property far exceeded our expectations and the host and property manager made our stay extra special. We highly recommend the accommodations and atmosphere.

This house was a huge delight to be in. The views from our morning, noon and evening deck were breathtaking! The ocean had an art gallery beyond belief. It was very comfortable, very accommodating and well thought out. My family had there places here and it was like Home? We had access to every venue we wanted to visit from our area to every side of the island. Amelia, property manager, was welcoming and informative, just like an Auntie, really liked her help. I would stay here again. Thank you, Mahalođź’—

This property was beautiful. You can’t beat the views from the main house. Just stunning. We were disappointed that the hot tub wasn’t working for the duration of our stay, because that was one of the reasons we chose this property. Everything else was perfect!

We had four families (a total of 21 people) and the house was perfect for our needs! The views were breathtaking. We saw whales from the balcony, and were just minutes away from some of the North Shores most amazing beaches. The house was clean and communication was quick. Attentive hosts, beautiful home, and ideal location made for a house we will definitely rent again when we return to the North Shore.

When we booked this house I asked the property manager for recommendations - surf school, a private chef. I had to ask a second time and was given name of a local surf school. I asked about beach chairs at the house and was told not sure - upon arrival they were there. Because of her message some guests paid to rent chairs through Turo. Apparently the property manager is in Idaho and not on site - she didn’t seem to have a real knowledge of property or the area.
This became obvious when we checked in. We arrived and the house had not been cleaned at all - dirty linens, kitchen, bathrooms. I reached out to property manager by text and email. No response. I called the local property person (my understanding was she was cleaning person) and immediately she asked why we were there. I said because we had a booking. She didn’t know anything about it - said it was through a company not linked to her. She did come up quickly and changed bedding and cleaned “somewhat” while we waited. Some bathrooms were not cleaned at all. The owner provided a refund for lack of cleaning, but honestly no one ever cleaned fully. We were cleaning ourselves the next day.
The house is also advertised as resort - hot tub. The hot tub never worked when we were there and when we asked we were told it hadn’t been working for several bookings.
I reached out to the property manager to talk about the condition of house and finally spoke by phone after several days. She agreed to mid week cleaning. On the day of the agreed upon cleaning I messaged to confirm it was happening. She said “let me check”. It had obviously never been scheduled and at that point - mid morning - I told her to forget it as I couldn’t manage 20 people being out of house without having confirmation prior to.
The house had a sofa which was horribly dirty. We flipped the cushions just so it looked cleaner.
The kitchen sink had stainless steel junctions which were separated and caused a potential danger of a guest cutting himself.
At end of week we lost electricity. The local person never checked on us until we reached out after dark to see if we could get some lights. I was surprised no one checked in after what had been a pretty bad storm locally.
After the booking ended I asked the property manager if I could speak to the owner. He tried to call and then sent a text message apologizing and asking what he could do. I message a list of issues we had encountered and he never responded.

Everything was great. We had a place to be altogether and spaces to have some privacy.

This is a beautiful property and a nice home. The check in instructions were emailed to us a day ahead. Unfortunately they were not correct at all. Luckily the lovely woman who takes care of the property was just pulling out and gave us the proper codes. Landscapers came on Friday evening- not Saturday morning as told to us. We felt fortunate to be able to be there, so it didn’t affect our trip...just a word of caution.

Upon arrival, we were greeted by the warm Hawaii sun and the breathtaking views of the ocean. The property is definitely more beautiful in person than what you see in pictures. Our families were so excited to be spending the next 7 nights here! Unfortunately that excitement was short-lived. The entire time we felt uncomfortable, walking on egg shells, worrying if our every move was being watched and monitored because we knew we were being listened in on by the surveillance camera that was installed inside the common area. We were told this was installed a month prior to our arrival and since our departure, this camera has been removed. Our quick fix was throwing a towel over it but at the same time it was still picking up audio, just as the outdoor surveillance cameras were picking up audio. These cameras were not disclosed within the listing or rental agreement prior to my booking. They were only added after our stay. Other notable mentions and opportunities for improvement is that the rooms in the estate can get pretty stuffy and hot due to no centralized A/C. On the plus side, the property manager Mike is great! He’s super friendly, always willing to help, and is in constant communication. I’d love for us to stay at another property he’s managing in the future. Unfortunately we will not be returning to this one. Just a note to everyone thinking of booking this retreat - please be aware of cameras/AV surveillance and protect your privacy! There were no feelings of “Aloha” after enduring this situation at the property and our group was disappointed we couldn’t fully enjoy our stay at this home.

The pictures of this place does not do its justice! Mike made sure communication was a priority and was always attentive to any questions or requests we had. The property itself was perfect! Literally the best view in North Shore. Our group of 19 from all over the world met up to celebrate a dear cousin and friend’s 40th birthday and thanks to Mike and this property this trip will have a special place in our hearts!
