When we first saw this 16 story older condominium high rise it wasn’t what we had expected, but it grew on us. Folks there seemed like a community, it was safe and the beach was fun, even though a lot of wave action. It was great to be away from the touristy side of Oahu and get a glimpse of a more real mixed neighborhood. The homeless encampments on other nearby beaches were hard to see, especially when one doesn’t know how to help best, but it was wonderful to enjoy other beaches where Hawaiian kids were learning to paddle outriggers and embrace Hawaiian culture. Would definitely recommend Paradise for a relaxing, low-key, not luxurious and yet unforgettable experience.

Beautifully located on the Wainaea coast, you have access to quiet beaches, services, and wonderful scenery. My wife and I like to go for beach walks, hikes, and local shopping. You are within walking distance to many things, easy drives of less than 10 minutes to others. If you are looking for a quiet get-away and far enough, but still close enough to Honolulu, this is the place for you. 3rd floor lanai makes it a perfect view of the ocean and nearby hills. Snorkeling and swimming are made easy, and there is a tennis court that is also used for Pickleball.

The location and beach were the best. The condo was great and exactly as advertised. The owners were very helpful and responsive. We throughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely consider this property for future visits to Oahu.

Loved this condo so much! Definitely a chill environment. The views sunset and beach were awesome! Just up the road or lots of great surfing beaches, and other beautiful fun places to hang out. This condo is not for party. It’s definitely a cozy, safe place to stay cook a good meal and get a good nights, sleep and lounge on the beach. Definitely getting groceries and planning on cooking delicious meals at home because it’s a bit of a food dessert. There are lots of yummy snacks in the area, loca Kalo Bomb and poke from
Market and a few plate, lunches and fast food but otherwise, I would definitely plan on cooking your own meals at home. I love with my whole heart the west side. Mitch and his family were super communicative and helpful.

This unit was just right for me and a friend. Amazing sunsets. Direct access to a sparsely populated beach. Beautiful turquoise waters. All the amenities we needed, both in the unit and for beach and pool activities. Grocery store relatively nearby. Limited restaurant options but what we did have was good, and we preferred to cook anyway. Perfect temperature in the unit, and the sound of the surf at night. Would definitely return!

Beach and view fantastic. Snorkeling right off shore and good boogie board and wave jumping when surf was up. Condo had all beach items and bbq area was clean and good location with picnic type setting. Owner was very receptive to questions.
Now for the flipside that is mostly related to the miles of beach encampment. We knew there would be homeless but miles and miles on beautiful beaches made any return a nogo. There were numerous encampments within shouting distance of our lanai. The local town , for the most part has nothing to offer except a friendly local grocery with good selection and prices. The condo owner cant be faulted for the political nightmare in west oahu, it is a sad situation. Security was good at the condo, which was a plus but the local town is overrun with homeless.
A few suggestions for the owner that they can control- upgrade linens and towels, bar height lanai furniture to see over rail.. .very beautiful beach and sunsets. Overall stocking of condo was good and the owner wa very receptive. So much potential for the nearby area but no one will invest any $$$ until the homeless situation is taken care of.

Coming up to the property, the neighborhood had us questioning our decision to book this spot. Once we were in the room and snorkeled off the beach, all doubts disappeared. The condo was perfect. Swimming right out, I had the most gorgeous snorkeling experience. Absolutely incredible variety of vibrant fish, eels, and even sea turtles. Worth it for this experience alone!
Had a little trouble with the washer/dryer, but Mitch was great and communication was excellent also. We were in want of nothing at all. The best place we stayed!

The property is very nice. The owner are amazing and great communicators. Always prompt to return text and emails. The condo is very clean and everything worked. great water pressure in shower and great hot water! We stayed in August so the lack of central air-conditioning took a few days to get use to in the afternoons. Trade winds are nice in the morning and evening but plan to be out and about during the late afternoon as it gets hot, particularly if you are cooking in the kitchen. Would definitely stay here again.
