The cottage offered everything we needed; we enjoyed our dinners on the porch while watching the sunset and beaches and nature walks were in very close proximity. The interior is a little dated and there is no aircon. ##### Nicole P. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ryan S. Jul 22, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Aloha! The location is excellent. So much to see and do within a very short drive in any direction. About the only minor flaw is there isn't a sandy beach right in front of the house. The water is rough but it can still be swimmable. Plenty of turtles to see as well The house itself is very well stocked with all the necessary items for making dinner, sleeping, showering, etc. We were able to settle into a very normal, home like routine. The windows can be opened, the fans used and it's a fantastic way to sleep listening to the waves literally right outside the home. Highly recommend! ##### Ryan S.

Reviewer Comments: Sand Dollar Cottage is located in Mokuleia Beach Colony Resort. This place is a hidden gem on Oahu. The property is well maintained, the landscaping is gorgeous and it is very quiet and peaceful. Sand Dollar Cottage is located directly oceanfront. The cottage itself is very simple and clean. The view from your lanai, the stars at night and the sound of the ocean is magnificent. We've stayed here 5 times and can't wait to come back! ##### Susan C. Stayed 15 nights in Nov 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Theron M. Jul 10, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Check-in, communication #### Great property, not great area The property and grounds are beautiful. Waterfront, short walk to beach access. However the outside the property area is not great. This is a lot of ranch area and seeing homeless and parked cars along the highway is the norm. Secondly, this seems to be some issues between the rental management company and the people who manage the property. We had an issue with check in card not being initialed in one spot which generated lies between the 2 companies which was taken out on us in a very unprofessional way. We also had issues with the entry gate which caused us to sit outside the gate waiting for a phone call back. Both times this happened it took so long that other tenants open the gate for us. Overall the property and setting is beautiful. Having access to a pool and the ocean is great. If the management companies can work out whatever differences they have, this would be a much, much better experience. ##### Theron M.

The Sand Dollar lanai is my favorite place to hang out and enjoy the trade winds and ocean view. It's sad that there is no more beach access because of the water level and the neighboring homes being threatened to wash away. Hope the State can figure out what to do so that the water doesn't get under the seawalls. Just something to be aware of if you want beach access, you will have to drive down the road. ##### Mark L.

Reviewer Comments: So nice! Our 7th trip to Hawaii, 4 Islands. This the best relaxing stay. We were up before sunrise every day and there for every sunset. It’s amazing that both are in plain view from the same place. Having an open patio was great. We read our Bibles each day outside, watching the sunrise and enjoying the waves. We saw 5 turtles our very first hour and even snorkeled with 3 during our stay. We snorkeled every morning as the tide was at its lowest, no wind in the morning. Even directly out front had good snorkeling, beautiful fish of all types. You had to find the pockets where they hung out. We stayed put most of the time with few excursions, that’s how much we likes the setting. I highly recommend stopping at Costco before you check in and buy your food. That way you can have oceanfront dining always.😊😊. The interior of the cottage is not the high end, but it’s the oceanfront we loved. Be aware of no air conditioning, fans helped. We have done nothing but tell our friends and family how much we enjoyed our stay. ##### Russ V. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Neil W. Feb 3, 2024 #### View of Views Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: About six yards from the water, I paced it off. A sea wall of around ten feet is all that keeps the ocean back, amazing unobstructed view you never tire and rocks you to sleep. The condo lanai overlooking the ocean is the best feature, inside is adequate but dated. Newer appliances help that part. A studio floor plan so a single, a couple or family with small children, are best suitability. You will never be closer and have a more spectacular view of the tropical ocean. ##### Neil W.
