Great family getaway
While the house does have some wear, it is a wonderful place for a family vacation. The beach felt refreshingly private and is just steps from the back door. Our family, ages 11 up to 70, had a fun and restful time! The youngest would wake up early, run out the door and immediately start playing on the beach.The house has plenty of cookware and utensils, plenty of lounge chairs on the patio for sunbathing readers, plenty of toys (sand toys, boogie boards, snorkeling gear, volleyball), beach chairs to go by the water, and plenty of beach towels. The host thoughtfully had everything we could possibly want or need. He also quickly responded and took care of us.The house doesn’t have a/c, but with plenty of windows to open and plenty of fans all over the house, we felt comfortable and slept comfortably.While the house is in a fantastic location as far as distance from iconic Oahu tourist experiences, the road in front of the house can be difficult to turn onto due to traffic. If we were leaving the house during heavy traffic, most of the time, a kind motorist would allow us to cut in. Our family alternated tourist days with rest days. We spent an entire day at the Polynesian Cultural Center, zip-lined through Kualo Ranch one morning, visited Pearl Harbor (highly recommend the submarine museum), toured North Shore, ate as much Hawaiian food as we could get. Make sure to check out the food truck park in Kahuku. Aloha!

It could not have been better...
I think everything was covered in other reviews, but I'd like to reiterate how kind and responsive Wade was. The place and location are beautiful and the home is in a relatively quiet area with everything that you might need relatively close by. Wade has virtually everything that you might need to enjoy the beach on hand. We definitely hope to return.

Perfect Family Getaway!
We had the best time staying at this house! We stayed January 19-26th. Our party had a total of 7 people, 4 adults and 3 kids. There was plenty of room for all of us, we never felt like we were confined or in each others space. The house doesn't have AC, but the weather was a perfect 80 all week, not too hot. So keeping the windows open to get the ocean breeze and every room has a fan or two, made it very comfortable in the house. You definitely can't beat this location, especially if you have kids with you. Aside from exploring sites on the island, we never wanted to leave this house with having the beach as our backyard. The beach was perfect for our kids and the adults! Everything you need for the beach or to play in the water is already provided at the house. The house is very functional. It could use some superficial upkeep, but overall it had everything we needed and everything in the house worked properly. Wade was a great host and always quickly addressed any questions or concerns we had. We enjoyed our vacation tremendously, made some amazing memories and would love to come back and stay at this house again. Thank you Wade for the hospitality!

We loved this house and location to the LDS Temple and PCCC. There is a cute gift shope across the street and one down the street which we visited frequently as well as a 7 Eleven. Grocery/ drug store was a short drive away. House was right on the beach which was amazing! House had everything you needed to play in the water. The view was amazing and falling asleep to the crashing waves was the best. Would for sure stay here again.

Hauula beach house
Great relaxing location. Ocean is literally 30 feet from your bedroom window so be ready to hear the ocean. That is why we selected the location, and it delivered. Everything else was of minimal importance. The house was typical beach house for North shore, internet was good, no complaints. The main road is also 30 feet from the house, so expect to hear some traffic. Main rooms are on the beach side so we never heard traffic, only the ocean. The water is great, not big surf. Great for the family esp. little kids. We saw a seal and a turtle and some fishing was going on from the beach. It was a great time and a drama free rental. Mahalo.

Beautiful Setting
Our favorite part of the stay was enjoying morning coffee while watching the sunrise each day. We've never stayed in a VRBO or hotel with such prime beachfront property. We were here during the peak of spring break, while other areas of the island were a complete zoo, and we only saw a few people on the beach each day. It truly felt like we were on a private beach. Wade communicated better than any other property manager we've worked with, checking in on us by text and email several times during our stay. We didn't have any issues but it was much appreciated. The house itself was clean but a little worn in some areas, although I stopped noticing those blemishes after a couple days. The cabinets, counters, floors, and appliances all appeared to be new. There were some areas where the walls could use a fresh coat of paint. There was no air conditioning but we were very comfortable with the windows open at night and slept well with the sound of the ocean. All in all, it was a good value compared to most other places on the island and I would definitely rent the house again.

‘Twas Excellent
Nice snorkeling spot protected by a reef a few minutes walk down the beach. Saw sea turtles & lots of types of fish. Good for swimming & beach relaxation & was very un-crowded. Water was far calmer than the other sides of the island (mid-March). House was nice & both top and bottom beachside decks were great. Master bedroom: laying in bed looks right at the ocean which was awesome. No air-conditioning but with a constant sea breeze, ceiling fans & 77F highs everyday, we didn’t miss it all. Good communication with Wade. If I come back to Oahu I would stay here again.

Convenient, safe, homey property.
This is a beachfront property whose location is convenient for accessing activities on both the North shore and southern part of the island. Grocery stores, beaches, food trucks and petrol stations are a short drive away. There is plenty of seating in the back patio for outdoor meals and visiting etc. Check in was very simple and our host communicated all instructions well in advance. The property is very clean and tidy. Would stay there again if we were to return to the island.

Amazing stay, great manager
The place is beautiful. Right on the beach. The manager was super responsive- responded to my texts in minutes and made sure we had everything we needed. We watched whales breaching out in the ocean every morning with our coffee and even got to see the local monk seal come up on the beach to sunbathe. We snorkeled the reef right in front of the house and saw some great fish and even an eel. The house is on a fairly busy road so there was some noise from the street. We didn’t mind as the beach facing side more than made up for it.

Great Family Time 20JAN-27JAN24
4 generation (7 persons, ages 6-87) and had a wonderful visit. The house is spacious, with separate living areas on each of the two floors. The kitchen was very well stocked, fridge large with an ice-maker, and lots of room. The only thing lacking was a dishwasher. There is no air-conditioning but ample screened windows and slider doors to let the sea breeze through, along with multiple ceiling fans. All bedrooms upstairs but easily navigated. The beach was very clean and swimming free of ay significant currents. Lots of beach toys, boogie boards etc provided. Ocean within 10 yards of downstairs patio and pleasant sound of waves all night. Good-sized FoodMart within 5-10 minute drive and a 7-11 close by for provisions. The only negatives we had is that the inside could be cleaner (and perhaps some fresh paint on walls), somewhat low water pressure for the upstairs shower (but had plenty of hot water), the twin beds were very firm, and there were not top sheets for the beds, but just a medium weight bedspread for a top layer in Master bedroom. Found an extra flat sheet in closet however. All in all, it is a wonderful, peaceful, quiet, secure, property with a great location and views. would love to return. The host, Wade, was away but in frequent communication and the housekeeper, Tanya, available to address any concerns.

On the Water
Our stay in Hauula was great! The house was not new and pristine, but it was useable and on the water. The furnishings were good and the kitchen was well stocked. Plenty of beach accessories & towels provided. The view from two of the bedrooms was spectacular. What a way to wake up. Some of the disrepair was due to the house being on the water as I am sure there are times that rust and water damage are sure to happen. Host was very communicative and even waited around to greet us.

Gorgeous location, great house!
Our extended family of 9 stayed in this lovely house in July and we couldn't have been happier. The location of the house is incredible and the house itself was plenty big for all of us, very clean, and well stocked. The view out the back directly onto the water is amazing, and it was great for the kids to be able to just hop down to the water anytime they wanted. We appreciated that there were plenty of beach towels, beach toys and even life jackets, which were super useful for our younger kids. We also loved being in a quieter part of the island that’s not as touristy or as busy. The weather was warm of course, but with the windows open the house was very comfortable with the sea breeze. A short drive up the road led us to a couple of other beautiful beaches with bigger waves that were perfect for boogie boarding. Wade was extremely helpful and responsive throughout the trip and helped out with anything we needed. I'm so glad we found this place. Highly recommended!

Fun House, Right On the Beach!
Stayed here with 2 families, 4 adults and 6 kids. Plenty of room for all of us. The house and property were clean. Kitchen had several appliances and utensils which made it great for all the meals we cooked at the house. Outdoor patios were awesome and house is literally on the beach! The views and beach access were incredible. Lots of beach toys and umberellas and chairs with the house. Wade, the host, was very attentive and helpful. My only con about the house is that it can get hot. There is no a/c, so you only have windows and fans. We got used to it and I'm sure most of the year its fine, but it was pretty hot in July when we were there. Overall great experience, we would stay here again!

Paradise on the Beach
We had an incredible time at this beach home. So grateful we found this, as it allowed our 10 family members to live together instead of being in separate hotel rooms. Waking up to the ocean off the lanai was incredible. The kids loved swimming, exploring the beach, collecting coconuts. Adults loved taking in the view and having plenty of space to hang out, play games, etc. This house was well stocked so we didn't have to bring our own towels, shampoo, umbrella, body boards - so helpful! Some of the beds were a bit firm but no big deal. There is a bit of noise at night from the street and crashing waves, but we knew that going in. We enjoyed all parts of the island and looked forward to coming back to our beach home each day. Highlights were Shark's Cove, surfing and floating in Waikiki, eating papayas from fruit stands, Island Watersports, Kailua beach, and the ukuleles at Polynesian Cultural Center. We would definitely return to stay here again! Thank you Wade!

Amazing location
We stayed here in early February with our family of 10 and could not have asked for a more perfect vacation. This house was exactly as described and fit our family (5 adults and 5 teenagers) perfectly. We has plenty of space and never felt crowded. There were plenty of beach chairs, boogies boards and other water toys to keep everyone happy. The best part was being right on the beach and waking up to the beautiful view every morning. The water was a little cooler this time of year, but none of minded. The location was great as it was in between Honolulu and the North Shore. We traveled to both areas quite a bit while we were there. Since it was February and a little cooler, we had a nice breeze at night to cool off the house and there were plenty of fans in every room as well. The only downside would be no AC in the summer, but the location is so amazing, I'm not sure if it would be an issue. Wade was fabulous to work with and responded to all of my questions right away. We would absolutely stay here again!

Our family of 8 (our children are all adults now and some are married) had plenty of room to sprawl out and yet there were wonderful spaces outside and in the house for us to just be together. After a long day of exploring other parts of the island we felt like each night we were coming back home. What a true example of hospitality! We witnessed beautiful sunrises in our back yard and even caught a glimpse of Sandy the monk seal.
