We had the best week. The house was perfect for our family. We have 4 children and 3 adults in our group. Plenty of space. The house was well appointed, clean and location was great. Check in and out was easy and all communication was friendly and helpful.
We were very happy to have a house right on the beach but also a pool for when the kids wanted to swim more but we made dinner or relaxed inside.
The house does have foot traffic next to it since it is right next to a beach access as well as canoe practice each day but it was never noisy or a problem. The house is surrounded by plush Landscspe which gives added privacy.
I highly recommend this property.

Our family of four stayed here over spring break with two other couples. We had a great time. The house came as advertised, no surprises.
Pros
House clean and well appointed
Comfy beds
Cottage great with families
Loved eating on lanai
Pool good for young children, only 4 feet
Beach access by house a non issue
Very quiet at night
Beautiful calm water
Totally private yard
No bugs
Pillbox home right behind house great for views
For consideration
No ocean view from back porch if sitting outside , the hedge does crate privacy though
No bath tubs, but showers are nice and big
Lots of people on streets during day coming and going to beach, drive carefully

It like we had found our own private resort when we walked through the private gate. The landscape is gorgeous. First u walk by the cottage (bedroom 3) My daughter and her husband enjoyed this space w a comfy king size bed, master bath w rainfall shower, kitchen, living area w beautiful decor. We also had Soothe (massages) come out to the cottage for couple massages. I highly recommend Soothe to start ur vacation. The pool was a big hit w my grandkids. I thought the pool might b chilly in April wo a heater but I was wrong it was quite pleasant. There was plenty of seating for the 8 Of us w the loungers, and chairs. There was a fun closet next to the lunai that had floats and pool toys, beach chairs w umbrellas sand toys etc...that the kids carried down to the beach. They supplied plenty of beach towels too. The house was amazing. A big kitchen which supplied a lot of paper towels, tp, Reynolds wrap, ziplock bags, garbage bags, dish dishwasher and laundry soap, plates, glasses, coffee cups, silverware, knives, bakeware, cookware, spices coffee filters etc...let’s just say there wasn’t much they didn’t supply. The house was extremely clean. The living and dinning area had plenty of seating and beautiful Hawaiian decor. W the backdoor and lunai doors open the house got this wonderful cross breeze which was constant all week. The master bedroom was gorgeous w it’s breathtaking views of the landscaped backyard and ocean. The management was great. I forgot to ask if they had a king size frame for the 2 twin beds they had set up in the 2nd bedroom prior to our visit. They came right away to switch the frames out and make up the bed w king bedding. They were very pleasant doing it, not like I inconvenienced them. The backyard to the sand is about 50’ or so and another 50’ or so to the ocean. The bushes in the backyard provide lots of privacy from those on the beach. In between this home and the one next door there is a public walkway to the beach from the street. It was very quite considering the traffic, even in the morning. We enjoyed coffee every morning listening to the ocean and watching the waves. Our vacation was Perfect!!! May I suggest: Blue Hawaiian Helicopter Tours, The Polynesian Cultural Center w delicious luau, Pearl Harbor, Diamondhead, Charters a private evening sail on a Catamaran ending w fireworks in Honolulu, Soothe for relaxing massages. Whole Foods & Target 6 mins away. Kalapawai cafe n deli, Boots and Kimos, Cinnamons, Buzz’s
