We had a wonderful experience. We were looking forsomething off the beaten path and we found it. The sunrises were so beautiful. We started every morning with a short yoga routine in the awesome back yard. The view is every bit as amazing (if not more) than the pictures promise. The quarters were very spacious. The bed was extremely comfortable. We enjoyed being able to take a quick dip whenever we wanted in the ocean by simply stepping off the backyard into the water. Plenty of places to go within the immediate area. Great coffee stand just down the road. Crouching Lion restaurant just reopened and had a variety of top class foods (we are foodies and loved it). You could get anywhere on the island in no more than about 45 minutes or so. North Shire just right up the road. Shower had plenty of hot water. A/C only in the bedroom, so the remainder of the house could get a bit warm, but not terrible as the wind off the ocean would cool things enough. And the AC in the bedroom cooled room very quickly. We loved having the washer and dryer. Finally, when 83 was busy, it could be slightly tricky to get out of the parking lot. Hosts are terrific. They asked about any needs that we had. A stay. We will book this place again when we come back to Oahu.

This is a beautiful location within 30 feet of the ocean. Beautiful sun rises and the sound of the waves! Space is ample and the bed was great.

It smells dank. The bedroom is claustrophobic. The main room walls, mat, and especially the upholstery is so ugly. On the positive side, you are steps from the ocean.You will be up to your ankles when you step in the Ocean. F

Our recent stay in Hauula was absolutely fantastic! The place was clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable vacation. The host was incredibly responsive and accommodating, making check-in and communication a breeze. But the true star is the location, right on the ocean. We would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a wonderful VRBO rental that is a little off the beaten path as far as touristy stuff goes, but your own private ocean front is impossible to beat. We did make the short drive to the Polynesian Cultural Center and also took in the sights on the way to Haleiwa for a day. All-in-all a great place.

We really enjoyed being this close to the ocean for a few days. Went to the Byodo-in temple and the Polynesian cultural center while we were on this side of the island. Lance was awesome and informative. He is actually an exceptional artist. A tip for him…put some more of your artwork in the unit and offer them for sale to the guests. It would liven up the space and probably boost print sales.

Absolutely gorgeous backyard leading to steps down to the water. It's even better than it looks in the VRBO photos. Amazing sunrise every morning. Place was spotless, nice little extras like maps, tote bag and beach towels. Pleasant surprise, you can barely hear the traffic go by. Parking was narrow, but totally doable, plus local drivers are very kind and will give you time and space - that we found all around Oahu. Thanks Lance for a small slice of heaven on the sea.

Wonderful stay on the North Shore away from the crowds. Beach front location was great. Watched the sun rise each morning and fell asleep to the sound of the ocean each night.
There was plenty of space and had what we needed.

Lance’s property is in just the right place to head south for the big city or north to the beaches of the north shore. Excellent sunrise views. Accommodations were clean and simple, perfect for a getaway. I recommend that you rent a compact car to make parking easier.

This property has some positives and several negatives. The positives: comfortable bed, overall the property is clean, has direct beach access, full size frig and washer and dryer.
The negatives: there is only AC in the bedroom (on hot days; like when we were there, the rest of the space is not comfortable), and yes, the small winodw AC will drone all night; there is no stove (just a hot plate and toaster); unless you have a small vehicle, you will not fit in the parking space next to the property...while there is space out front, the owner prefers you don't park there.
As for the location, note that the best beaches are to the north (towards Turtel Bay), starting at Laie Bay...

Small dated apartment, but just what we needed. We had a wonderful time although I must say getting out of the parking area at times was challenging. There is an air conditioner in the bedroom only, but all you have to do is open the sliding door to get a good breeze in the living area. Enjoyed staying out of the big city, much more relaxing.

This place is NOT in the heart of the city and that’s what we loved. Amazing ocean front view with privacy. Fruit stands, food trucks. Not commercial and off the beaten path
