Jun 25, 2025 #### Hidden Diamond Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were pleasantly surprised at the beautiful surroundings in the home we rented. Driving from the airport, we were skeptical because the town we drove through looked rough. We witnessed lots of homeless people wandering around and it was very sketchy shopping locally. Once we got to the prosperity, we were amazed how beautiful it was and it gave us peace of mind knowing we were in a gated community. The cons were the fridge in the MIL suite did not work properly & we reached out and was told someone would come and fix it & that did not happen. The back 2 burners on the stove in the main house didn’t work and we called because we had garbage overflow and was told someone would pick it up & that did not happen. We made it work but the communication to get our needs met were poorly handled. We will be back but unsure if we will use the same company due to the poor communication. ##### Michael C. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nate C.

This accommodation offers all the essentials and more, including a large parking lot, ample space for your family, modern appliances, and a high ceiling. The lush green plants outside create a soothing ambiance. I am grateful for the hassle-free experience my ohana enjoyed here, thanks to the friendly neighbors and clean surroundings that provided ample space for the kids to explore. I will always prefer such accommodations over hotels. ##### Lana M. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kerry K. Mar 30, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful, clean house in beautiful location Other than the home missing some basic amenities (hangers, baking pans, mixing bowls), it was really easy to stay here. The home is very clean and beautiful and it is set in a very, very beautiful location. A special feature of this place was the separate studio that was included. We would definitely stay here again! Snorkeling in the area was not very good. We recommend Pokia Bay state park for swimming, especially with small children. We also recommend the Ko Olina Lagoons for swimming with small children. Other suggestions in the area: The Beach House restaurant and the Ko Nau Lani whale watch tour. ##### Kerry K. Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Thomas S.

We had an issue with the hot water heater timer as the power had gone off for a few hours and the maintenance person was very quick to reply!!

The only thing is that is far from everything if you are vacationing and you have to drive through the worst places in Hawaii. In order to get to anything you have to drive through the homeless population and they are everywhere and taking over the beaches in this part of town. ##### Margarita C.

A small drive to the city. We couldn't have found a better place for all of us to come together and visit with him. If this house was for sale, we would buy it today!

Area was far from most things we wanted to do about an HR drive everyday so I would consider this but the place itself was amazing. The area around wasn’t so nice driving to the house but once you enter the neighborhood it gets way better and feels safe and secure. Felt great knowing my kids could play and hang out outside very quiet and safe area. Do not hesitate to book owners are super nice and helpful and easy to work with. ##### Luis L. ### 6/10 Okay #### Greg L. Jun 16, 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location #### Needs improvement Overall the house/community was good but lacking in amenities. The sheets and towels need to be replaced. They were very worn and there were not enough towels or washcloths. Two dish towels and one sponge are not enough for a week’s stay. We had to do multiple loads of laundry to have enough towels. The dryer isn’t the greatest. It had to be started multiple times in order to dry a load. WiFi was insufficient. We had use of the WiFi for about three days and it no longer worked. ##### Greg L.

Reviewer Comments: Nestled in the breathtaking Makaha Valley, just a short drive from Honolulu, our vacation rental was the perfect Hawaiian retreat for our family getaway. With ample space for six adults and four children, the number of bedrooms was just right, providing everyone with their own cozy sanctuary. Each bedroom was wonderfully designed, offering comfort and tranquility, making it easy to unwind after a day of exploring the stunning surroundings.The living spaces were nothing short of beautiful, with large windows that framed the picturesque views of lush greenery and vibrant sunsets. Whether we were relaxing together in the spacious living room or enjoying meals in the well-equipped kitchen, the ambiance was always warm and inviting. We were delighted to find that the house had everything we needed for a seamless stay—from beach essentials to cooking supplies. It was a joy to gather as a family, sharing laughter and creating cherished memories in such a lovely setting.For grandpa, renting the separate apartment was a must, providing him with the perfect space to relax while still being close to the family. This thoughtful addition allowed everyone to enjoy their own space while still feeling connected.Our time in Makaha Valley was truly magical, surrounded by the natural beauty of Hawaii. From the stunning beaches to the lush landscapes, every moment was a reminder of the paradise we were in. We left with hearts full of joy and a desire to return to this enchanting home. If you're looking for a perfect family getaway, this is the place to be! ##### James M. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kerri P. Dec 16, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Loved this house We had no idea what the area would be like when we booked since this was our first time visiting Hawaii. It was super clean & had a nice layout. The neighborhood was very safe since there is a manned guard at the gate and you cannot get in w/o stopping. The view from both the street & house were great. You can see the sea & being surrounded by the mountains was beautiful. The sky was unobscured for a view of the moon and stars. We had 9 people in the house & never felt too crowded. 6 of our party were females & we all use 2 towels for showering. One for hair & one for body. When I booked I had to put the number of guests so they knew we were a party of 9, but there were 8 sets of towels. I requested 7 more bath towels & 5 hand towels, but that got mixed up. We made it work. The pull out couch did not have sheets nor pillows. I asked for a set of sheets & pillows but only got a flat sheet. We made it work. The kitchen was nice, but there were no kitchen towels. The rental company provides paper towels but if you hand wash anything it’s very wasteful to use paper towels to leave wet dishes on to dry. I went to Walmart & bought a cheap pack of 2. My 2 biggest complaints are this: the king bed in the upstairs master slopes in the center. My husband kept rolling into the middle & we were had knees in backs & knees knocking knees. That sucked. My other complaint is the family room config. The little settee was uncomfortable. Switch the furniture around ##### Kerri P.
