Waterfront Home near Beach. Peaceful Community w/ Swimming Pool and Boat Dock

Experience Oahu like a Kama'aina (local) in this 3 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath waterfront home. Safe community. Views from every room. Private lanai, BBQ grill, community pool, and boat dock. Walk to dining, shopping, bars, farmers market, hiking, beaches. 5 minutes drive to golf, Hanauma Bay, Koko Head, Makapu’u Lighthouse. 15 minutes drive to Waikiki. Family-friendly, remote working setup with smart home technologies. This is our home away from home, and we'd love to share the beautiful experience with you.

From the moment you walk in the front door, you'll be greeted with a panoramic view of the marina ocean water, gently swaying palm trees, and Koko Head. Enjoy the cool trade wind breeze, the sounds of bird singing, palm trees rustling and the views of tranquility from the living room, dinning room, lanai and bedrooms.

This beautiful home is perfect for long-stay to recharge, rejuvenate, relax and be inspired. Its location is excellent for those who want to enjoy the beauty of the island with comforts & amenities, but without the hustle and bustle of the city. One of the best features of the house is to walk out to the water and the grassy park area directly from the lanai. Play a ball game, practice yoga, relax in the hammock and enjoy the gorgeous sunset with a nice glass of wine. The common areas for this home include a swimming pool, parks, two boating docks to launch your kayak, paddle board and other water toys.

Our home has wireless internet, cable TVs, a computer monitor, an office den, designed for working remotely. A 65 inch smart TV and a bedroom TV are available for you to sign into your streaming services and watch your favorite shows. We love our smart home technologies that would make your stay much more easier and pleasant. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need to make gourmet meals. A gas BBQ grill is available at the lanai.

Take a 10-minute leisure walk to nearby Koko Marina shopping center to get coffee, shave ice, Leonard's Malasada, or enjoy a night out at local restaurants, bars and farmers market. There are three shopping centers in the Hawaii Kai area, all within walking distance or a 5-minute drive away. There are plenty of activities for the kids. For outdoor lovers, Hanauma Bay, Koko Crater trails, Hawaii Kai golf course are 5-minute drive. Water sport activity clubs and rental shops are in the shopping centers nearby. Rent a boat, a kayak or paddle board and sail into the ocean. Koko Head and Makapu'u trails are great place to hike with breathtaking 360 degree view from the top. If you love the beaches but not the crowds, there are several beautiful local beaches within 3/4 or 2 miles from the property. We provide beach chairs, umbrella, towels, snorkels, toys and a cooler.

Our home only has air conditioning in the master bedroom, yet the breezy trade winds keep the house cool and comfortable. Ceiling fans throughout the house. The master bedroom has a king bed, a walk-in closet, a master double-sink bathroom with both shower and bathtub, and has the same gorgeous view of the marina. Two other rooms with a queen and full size bed and a separate bathroom are also located on the second floor. Enjoy the incredible view of the mountains and sometimes rainbow! The bedrooms can sleep 6 people comfortably. We do have extra pillows, sheets, blankets and comforters if additional guests don't mind sleeping on the couch. Please check with the host for additional guests.

Great waterfront property. Quiet and private. Best VRBO hosts we have ever dealt with, very accommodating. Sitting on the lanai for morning coffee and meals with that gorgeous view is a highlight. The house is spacious and owner provides all beach supplies. The kitchen is well equipped and stocked with cooking basics. Brand new outdoor grill on lanai. Near to shopping, restaurants and Hanauma Bay. We will stay here again!

Beautiful view
Great location and view right on the water. The house is spacious and very well stocked. We cooked/barbecued quite a bit and had everything we needed. Mornings on the patio with coffee is a must. The hosts are exceptional and very easy to work with. Plenty of restaurants and shopping nearby. We will stay here again.

Koko Circle Getaway
Our favorite thing about this place was our gorgeous view, both from the living/dining area and the master bedroom. The whole area was picturesque and safe for walking. Amenities, such as restaurants, and grocery stores even the renowned Hanauma Bay were close by, or a short car ride away. Our hosts were exceptionally accommodating and queries were answered by text, in minutes. The 3 bedrooms, 2 1/2 baths and large living space made living with 6 people, of 3 generations possible. We appreciated being in a quiet area, yet only about half an hour away from Waikiki/downtown area. If Honolulu is your destination, we would recommend this place to stay!

Great Location and Safe Community
We had a great stay, and I would recommend this property to anyone looking for a feel of Hawaii life. The owners are fantastic, communicate well and handle concerns quickly. There are three bedrooms upstairs and plenty of room downstairs. Only the master bedroom has A/C but it does cool the room quickly. The other two bedrooms have fans which were fine when we stayed in December. The back sliding doors open to a large grassy shared area which rarely had people on it. This was a great view through the day. The community is basically a private island with one entrance and a tight group of residents. This friendly group made us feel safe and welcome. The pool is literally a two minute walk, and we went almost every day. We had the pool to ourselves 9/10 times we went. We also loved the sunsets in the pool. Hawaii Kai is a great spot to vacation. There are plenty of great restaurants, stores, groceries, and even five minutes from Costco.
