Ocean Beach House

We had a great time and enjoyed our stay. The house is located in a great area with a wonderful view of the ocean. The house is time stamped and does need some maintenance. Overall we were happy with our stay.

Beautiful home on the beach, which provided indoor and outdoor space to enjoy the beauty of Oahu. We loved all the opportunities to engage in activities from walks on the beach to water boarding in the ocean to sunbathing!

Anniversary Celebration!

I’ve been to the North Shore 7 times now. I brought my family here for their first time and to celebrate the 57th anniversary of my parents and the 34th of my oldest brother and sister-in-law. I couldn’t have asked for a better property! They got to experience 7 days of waves crashing on the beach just outside the door, watched whales breach from the lenai, and feel the cool ocean breeze. The house was great. Clean and provisioned. The owner even left chocolates and towel swabs in every bedroom, I couldn’t ask for more!I will absolutely recommend this property to any and everyone who travels to Oahu!!!!

Beautiful location, beach right outside the back door. House is spacious and well equipped. Very comfortable. Road noise is there, but was not bothersome for us and didn’t take away from the overall great experience we had. Would definitely stay here again.

An enjoyable staycation

We live on Oahu and found this house to be an enjoyable place for a staycation. The beach was right behind the house and was perfect for my grandsons to fish from the shore and for diving. Beach was also good for shell collectors. We cooked many meals here and even used the charcoal grill. We had a wonderful time here and plan to use this place again for another family staycation.

Over all great place.

Loved the location. Loved hearing the waves. Highway was a bit loud but we became used to it. Loved being close to Ted's Bakery. I think we all gained 10 pounds. Sorry we couldn't get into the water. Rip tides to powerful. Enjoyed the lanai. Thanks for the grill, that worked out well. Washer and dryer came in handy. Only real downfall were the beds. Mattress's were not comfortable at all. Other than that, we really enjoyed our stay. Would like to do it again in the future. Thank you for your hospitality.

Love the vibe of the north shore! Location was great. House is beautiful but could use some TLC. Amazing view, unfortunately the cleanliness of the windows was less then satisfactory. Large deck and yard gave a wonderful area to gather and relax in the evening and watch the Amazing sunset.

Beach vacation

The house proved to be comfortable and convenient once we learned how to maximize the outside airflow through the property. As noted in other reviews, it took a few days to acclimate with no AC and get used to the surf noise and road noise, which actually proved to be quite soothing in the end. We found the beach area at the house to be our best snorkeling and swam with turtles every day. When we read this in a review we were skeptical, but we did swim with turtles every day. The kitchen is well equipped and the showers had good pressure. We utilize the washing machine and the dishwasher without issue. We found the outside shower and spray hoses very convenient to get the sand off after being in the water. In all our stay was thoroughly enjoyable.

Vacation home away from home!

This house was AMAZING! Mom, dad, boyfriend and myself stayed here very comfortably. As many have said the view is INCREDIBLE, ocean sounds to lull you to sleep every night. There are steps from the driveway to the semi- private ocean. A few blocks away on either direction are very popular public beaches of preferred. The house has everything you will need to be comfy staying home, or you are minutes away from Haliewa, the best town on the North Shore!

Great beachfront home

Vintage cozy charm and a great centralized location. Great deck and lots of patio furniture. The only downside was no A/C but most homes don’t have it so we kept all the windows open for fresh ocean air. We loved seeing surfers and an occasional turtle just outside. The outdoor shower was a huge plus. Lots of goggles, boogie boards and beach stuff in the garage. Communication with the host was great.

North Shore Family Vacation July 2024

We stayed here 10 years ago but I didn’t remember how noisy it is because of the traffic one side and the ocean waves on other. There is no air conditioning, fans worked reasonably well but because of noise at night we had to shut some windows to sleep so circulation and natural cooling limited. One slider had no screen and if we used the netting, bugs got in. There is no gas grill and some of the outside patio furniture, sliders and decking are worn. The WiFi was not working but owner was responsive and it was fixed the first day of our stay. The house is close by car to some nice beaches and has close up views of the reef and ocean. It is difficult to swim at the small beach right behind the house due to rocks and surf but other nice beaches can be driven to.

Beach house

Enjoyed the house. Master bedroom was really nice great views from all bedrooms. I only wish there had been a broom that we could use to sweep as the vacuum cleaner was plugged up. There wasn’t really any instructions on what we needed to do before we left we cleaned out everything in the refrigerator that was perishable. We took the trash out close to the street like we were asked to do whoever had stayed there before did not take the trash out. There was a broken piece on the deck Mr Hass had emailed me and said someone would be there over the weekend to fix it, but they never showed up and he was aware they had not showed up. Other than that I would recommend this house and would definitely stay there again

Epic Location/Weathered House

We had a wonderful time during our stay in Haleiwa. Upon arrival to the house the garage code did not work so we entered through the front which had a key in the lockbox. The front stairs are very steep and the handrails are basically not much help as they wobble as you hold onto them. The house is very dated. Yet it does have all the necessary items to make things work. Kitchen was fully equipped and towels and bedding were in abundance which was nice. The outside deck is very weathered and my father actually fell through a portion when taking a photo of the sunset. Very scary needless to say he was ok. The owner responded quickly by text and said he would have someone come to fix it but that never happened. Sliding doors did not lock just by a wooden stick and overall felt itchy the entire time we were there. Made the most of it but definitely feel the owner need to make some serious upgrades.The view is amazing and location is the best part of our stay.

Absolutely in disrepair

This property is not worth the money. There are no window coverings on the water side in any of the bedrooms. Most of the lights did not work, fecis was found in the bathroom drawers, outdoor furniture was filthy and not maintained. The owner uses the property as a dump zone for anything he doesn't want. You have to bob and weave through the garage past the cars and garbage he has left there. This property was absolutely filthy and should be pulled from any rental site until proper repair and maintenance is done

Great Vacay!

This house on the North Shore is amazing. We had a great time, Jim was a breeze to deal with. Would recommend. The home doesn’t have AC, which honestly being from Alabama was worrisome. The first day was a little slow to get comfortable with the temps, I’d say due to the windows being closed. Although there is a covered porch with plenty of chairs for everyone to sit around, and it was very comfortable all day long. After the sun went down the temperature dropped to around 70, so with the wind it was plenty chilly to sleep. As for beach access, you couldn’t get better. With about a 6-7 minute drive to Haleiwa, it’s a perfect location. There is some road noise as you are sleeping next to the highway, but coupled with the waves at the front of the house, it’s not that big a deal. Would stay again!

Beach House

Location, Location, Location. The pictures are exactly right on. You pull in the driveway and the beach is right there. While we were there a large tropical storm hit. There was some damage (Downed trees, power out, high water) We got hold of the owner right away to let him know. Non of these issues were his fault we just wanted him to know. He got back to us right away. After the storm the rest of the stay was perfect. The house is very close to amenities. We were able to see Whales from the lanai multiple times. if you are a good swimmer, the ocean in front of the house is full of beautiful fish and sea life. We Highly recommend this lovely home.

Location, location, location!

This house is located between Haleiwa and Weimea Bay on a stretch of Oahu’s world famous North Shore. The location is absolutely astounding—right on the beach. Step down 5 steps and walk the sand! We watched turtles come ashore to bask, whales breaching, and surfers and paddle boarders riding big North Shore waves. The grandkids built sand castles and the adults enjoyed walking the beach and hearing the pounding surf. Fantastic! That said, the house itself suffers from its location in the salty air. While the 3000 sq ft on 2 levels is plenty of space for 6, everything shows signs of wear and tear from the effects of the ocean air. Some electrical outlets are seriously rusted, the sliding doors do not lock (but are secured by dowels in the slide tracks), the garage is filled with two vehicles and lots of junk so parking is outside on the concrete pad, the 2 baths are split between floors: one shower/tub combo upstairs and one shower only downstairs. All 3 bedrooms are upstairs. The stairs have a heavily worn carpet strip and all indoor & outdoor furniture is well used. The Kamehameha Hwy is located ~25 ft from the front of the house. Heavily traveled day and night, it adds to the noise level of the surf. But the noise quickly became routine. There is a manually operated sliding gate that must be opened/closed every time you enter/exit. Tricky since the road is so close. Although the property needs a good bit of maintenance, its location on the island is nearly unbeatable!
