This home was a wonderful place to stay. The views were incredible. The sunsets were amazing and it was great having Turtle Bay right down the street. The beaches overall are stunningly beautiful and we can't wait to come back again. So many wonderful memories we will cherish
We had a lovely stay at this property! We had a very easy check in process and our stay was delightful. There was strong A/C in the bedrooms that helped keep us cool at night even thought there was no A/C in the main part of the house. The backyard was spacious and it was so nice to have access to the water down a flight of stairs. Woudl love to go back one day!

The house was perfect, the view was amazing and it was such a peaceful environment. It was worth every penny. We would definitely rent this home again.
Waking up to the view ... watching the sunsets. It's just a lovely spot. 7 people were very comfortable in that house. We'd definitely stay again, if we ever make it back to Oahu. Wish we could have stayed longer.

The home was the perfect place for our family to relax and enjoy beautiful views. The home was lovely with all the amenities that we needed. It was a great central point between everything we wanted to explore on the North Shore. We would definitely stay here again.
Our stay here was perfect. Easy check in and out, communication was easy, picturesque location, it was everything we were looking for. Will be back.

Nestled on the North Shore of Oahu, right on the ocean, this was an ideal place for a quiet getaway away from the crowded Honululu. The checkin process was easy and communication with the host seamless. Team Real Estate inc was very responsive to all of our questions and provided clear answers.There is plenty of parking space outside the house( enough for at least 2 cars, though the driveway of the adjacent house probably could accommodate 4). The house itself was clean and reasonably well maintained ( other than a few cracked tiles in the kitchen). They had plenty of dishes and utensils, coffee maker, microwave and toaster- more than enough to cook simple meals and breakfast. There is a well maintained front and back yard and easy beach access with stairs right from the property. The beach in front of the property is rocky but a short walk gets you to the sandier portions. One of the highlights of our trip was a monk seal that decided to pay us a visit almost as soon as we came down for an evening walk. Absolutely amazing!The other north shore beaches are close by and very easy to get to for surfing, snorkeling and just laying on the beach. There is a Foodland not too far from the property for any groceries, etc. Super convenient. The hosts had towels for us to take to the beach as well as snorkels, beach toys, etc, which was super helpful!With 7 people, the three bathrooms were a blessing as was the outside shower with hot water and the hose to hose the sand off our legs and sandals. The bedroom areas were air conditioned which would be hard to live without in the summer. You could see the sun set right from the back porch or the master bedroom lanai on the 2nd floor.All in all, it was a fantastic trip and the property was absolutely perfect for us.

We just completed a two-week vacation at this location and loved it. The house was exactly as advertised. It was clean. The directions were clear and easy to get into the unit when we arrived. The views were fabulous.
A nice water front stay close to North Shore and all the attractions

Our stay was wonderful, clean, and roomy. All the information about recycling, trash, and expectations was posted around the house. There is only one issue: It was so dark when we arrived that we could not find the correct address. If a motion light could be installed, that would be helpful for future renters. Also, I printed the address, and we were advised that we were in 493 when it should have been 501. I love how close we were to everything except Waikiki and I'm ok with that, North Shore is better for beaches. Anyone will appreciate this rental.
The view was fantastic and good location near good beaches. Would definitely recommend/return.
Words can’t express how much we enjoyed our stay here. The house, yard, and location are perfect. The views from the deck, yard, and upstairs balcony are absolutely breathtaking. Definitely an unforgettable, incomparable vacation for all of the adults and two children. Thank you!!
We enjoyed our stay, the home is very peaceful. We enjoyed hanging out at the beach. There’s swimmabe beaches, food trucks and grocery stores close by. Waterfalls, Koloa Ranch, Dole Plantations, botanical gardens all things you can do within diving distance. A stay in the country is what we needed to reguvenste.
This was the perfect home for our family of four (kids 9 and 4) and my parents and my in-laws for 8 total. Location. Can’t beat it. I wanted to be near water and this home has a beautiful view and water access from your backyard. The sound of the waves at night was amazing. You can’t really swim in that area but you are close to so many things to do it’s a quick drive to turtle bay or shark cove for swimming. Also close to restaurants and activities. There are wild cats and chickens that will frequent the backyard, which I actually enjoyed since I have chicken at home. I would hit a Costco or Walgreens on the over from the airport. The local store is more expensive. The house. Nice house and fit all of us perfectly. The upstairs loft was perfect for the kids. I love the outdoor showers to clean up after the beach. The house has a lot of outdoor beach items to use like snorkel gear, beach chairs and sand toys and beach towels. Good laundry area. Good hot water. It was winter so we didn’t really need the AC but I bet it gets hit upstairs, here were AC units. There are some basic cooking items like salt and pepper and oil. There really isn’t any hand soap or toiletries so bring those. TV had a lot of stations and good wi-fi. One tip is that the access to the house from the main road is hard to see, especially if in the dark. There are four units behind a fence and you take a sharp turn to the driveway to the units. Owners may want to add a sign
The location right on the ocean was amazing. Great sunsets, tidepools with aquatic life you would see in an aquarium, and the constant sound of the waves. The house was a great base for exploring Oahu. Would definitely stay there again.
What an amazing property on the north shore. We had a wonderful stay, saw amazing sunsets, and would stay here again. Only things that I would take into consideration would be the proximity to the road. Traffic could be loud at times. Also the upstairs bathroom never had enough hot water to fill the tub.
We started our Hawaiian adventure on Oahu and the VRBO was perfect!
This property and location was so amazingly beautiful. It took our breath away regardless of minor technical issues and the age of the home. We highly recommend this place to everyone.

Great property, great location, wonderful time
We booked this amazing rental to celebrate a friend’s 50th birthday. It was a perfect setup for the six adults and the tag along eight year-old. We couldn’t believe how we lucked out with such a beautiful view right next to the beach allowing us Midwesterners to get the full Hawai’i experience. The sound of the waves, the ocean breeze and stunning sunset views each night made our trip such an amazing experience.The owners were very responsive to the few inquiries we had. The location provided us great access to the local sights and sounds on all sides of the island combined with a quiet place to get our day going and settle in each evening. Book this one before someone else does!
Breathtakingly beautiful 🌊⛱️
The house was perfect for our family! The pictures to this home does not do it justice! It was so comfortable and the ocean front views are amazing! Waking up in paradise every morning was awesome! Overlooking the beautiful ocean! We will definatley be rebooking this place again!
Lovely stay. Homey and comfortable. Would have been even better with air conditioning in the living room kitchen area. Very hot but fans were helpful. Hostess was very accommodating and helpful. Beds were comfortable and linens and towels were good quality.
The location and setting were amazing. It was such a wonderfully relaxing last week of our holiday in paradise.

A reunion with all our kids and grandkids this past July 2024 at Kawela Kai #503 and #501 consisted of 4 families totaling 13 folks. The easy stroll between the 2 houses made it super easy to see each other, spend time on each other’s lanais, barbeque and dine together. The lanai was the best feature with it’s wide expanse and fantastic view of the ocean and sunsets. With eight chairs around the table and ample seating on the bench, all of us could congregate comfortably. The kitchen is well-equipped. Previous renters left various condiments such as salt, pepper, some spices, tea bags, Pam spray, and other dry goods. It’s best to check out the cupboards before you buy anything at the market. The one thing that we found absolutely necessary was to bring or buy a sharp knife/knives! The ones provided were super dull. The front-loading washing machine and dryer were fairly new, full-sized and stacked on each other. Detergent is provided. Salt air takes a toll on beach houses. We contended with hard-to-slide screen doors. Unfortunately for us, new screen doors were installed a day or two after we checked out, but it should benefit future renters. The AC unit in the 2nd floor bedroom in #503 was not working at check-in. We called Celma, our agent at Team Real Estate, who took care of the problem right away. Although it was at the end of her work day on a Friday, she drove to a hardware store, bought a new AC unit and delivered it to our unit. She got a technician to come out the next day to install it. We couldn’t have asked for better service. Celma went above and beyond and we are so grateful for her dedication in meeting her clients’ needs. Thank you, Celma!Note: Summer months bring out the flies! So get a fly swatter and food tents for both indoors and outdoors. Grocery shopping is convenient at Foodland Pupukea--great selection. Food trucks galore along the north shore and in Hale
Excellent location. This end house felt very private. The view couldnt be better!
Beautiful home with ocean front views. Very accommodating and plenty of space. A must stay while visiting the north shore.
Perfect North Shore location! Enjoyed grilling fish tacos at sunset and beach walks.
