Marie is the most amazing host. A month before our stay in Hawaii, another VRBO bailed on us and we had no place to stay. We contacted Marie and she was sympathetic to our situation and helped us out enormously. Marie is kind and responsive. She greeted us at the house when we arrived and walked us through everything. She gave great advice on good places nearby. We relied on her for help with travel times (including traffic) to various destinations such as Pearl Harbour and her advic
We will totally be going back to say there again. We loved the location and the house
Our family of five (with two teens and a grandma) had a wonderful stay in this home. It really was a beautiful and unique home and the pictures on the site are accurate. We loved sitting out on the deck for breakfast. Nearly every day we rode the bikes to local beaches, especially Shark's cove where we did the best snorkeling of our lives. It was so nice to have use of the bikes and snorkel gear. The owner's husband was our main contact during our stay and he was friendly and helpful.
Great access to some of the most awesome beaches in the world. Loved the location and vibe of the North Shore. Would stay again.
The homeowner offered excellent communication before and during our stay. We gave her an approximate time of arrival and were greeted as we pulled into the driveway. She was happy to talk to us about the available sports equipment, show us around the house, explain the TV remote, talk about the general area, etc. Such a terrific host!!!!!
The house was exceptionally clean and exactly how described in the listing. There was plenty of room for our family. My daughter loved her private "suite" downstairs and my nephew enjoyed the privacy he received in the loft. The house made everyone happy!!
The house is just steps from the beach so it was uber convenient to put my feet in the sand whenever I wanted. Ted's Bakery is nothing more than a few minutes walk from the house. I used one of the bicycles to ride beside my daughter and husband who ran on the bike path. We appreciated having access to beach chairs and boogie boards.
We did use the washer/dryer at the end of our stay, which was a great perk!
The beds are comfortable and air conditioning worked the one night we used it. My husband simply preferred to sleep with the windows open and catch the nice breeze that came through so we didn't need the A/C. :)
Everyone we encountered on North Shore was super friendly. From the people we met on the beach to folks waiting in line at Ted's.
All and all, we were very pleased with the property and delighted with our stay.
Such a peaceful and serene setting. J. and her family have preserved a hale in which their love for the islands shines through in such small details as the leaf imprints in the entry and the beautiful stained glass inside the house. There's so many wonderful features to this house: the location, the amenities, the hospitable hosts. If you are looking for a quiet peaceful taste of the Aloha spirit, this is the place for you! Thank you very much J and family!!
We enjoyed a fabulous time at the north shore and very much appreciated the immediate proximity to the sunset beach. It was uncrowded, even on the weekend, so that turtles literally relaxed next to us. Close to the house, you can find several exciting trails for hikes from easy to moderate levels of difficulty. The house itself was very cosy and all of us felt more than comfortable with the location. In short, the owners provided optimal housing conditions. Mahalo and Aloha.
Place was absolutely great. Best location. Want to go back soon!
This very comfortable home is on a corner lot across the street from an empty (no buildings, just trees) lot that is on the beach so access to a gorgeous beach is just 3 mins away with no busy streets to cross. Google Maps has a hard time with the address as formatted on VRBO but entering the address without the "Sunset Point" will get you there with no problem. I've already recommended this home to friends! Thank you for the great stay!
We recently stayed at this property as we were on the island for a wedding. We could not have been happier with our choice to stay at this home. Although it is not "beachfront", it has some great ocean views and is literally a 60 second walk to the beach along a quiet public access path. The beach itself was never even remotely crowded and it appeared as though most people out there were locals or others like us just wanting some peace and relaxation. We had monk seals and turtles show up on the sandy beach and could see humpback whales breaching in the distance. This is also a popular surfing area this time of year and it was fun watching the surfing action during the day.
Our neighborhood felt very safe and we didn't think twice about walking to Ted's Bakery to get an evening meal or taking the bike path to Shark's Cove to sample the food trucks. The property has a privacy fence around it and a nice private lanai on the second floor that offers a relaxing place to rest and enjoy the ocean breeze and sounds. The location of our house with quiet beaches and the nearby amenities left us wondering why anyone would want to stay anywhere else on the island!
The North Shore is truly the place to be if you aren't looking to be overrun by crowds. From our experience traveling the island, we couldn't think of a better location to book a return trip to than Sunsetyards on Sunset Beach. Thank you to the owners for providing us with this perfect setting for our family vacation!
