Right on the Beach

This house is older but the bones are good. It’s a great location to try several beaches within a 20 minute radius. Very private, not crowded by neighbors or on the beach. North Shore is where you want to be.

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.

Slice of Heaven

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!

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.

No working oven or stove and intruder

The house was advertised as having a working oven and stove. For our group of 8 we bought $1200 worth of food for the week with every intention of not spending money on eating out. On the morning of the second day of our stay we realized the gas stove and oven were out of gas. The owner then instructed me to call the gas company and order more gas for the house. I waited on hold with the gas company for 30 mins for them to tell me the owner would have to call and we couldn’t get gas for at least 2 weeks. The owner refused to call. When I asked the owner to call me to discuss this he messaged back rudely and told me to use the charcoal grill. We were unable to cook at least half of the food we had bought because of the gas issue. The house for 10 was also only equipped with 3 forks. Lastly, a man showed up to the house unannounced and entered the the garage while we were there. When approached he said he was the property manager and that he was checking the lights. He said that he would come back with gas for us the next day and had not been in communication with the owner about this issue. He never showed back up so we aren’t sure if he was really the property manager or a random person opening the garage.

North Shore

Enjoyed our stay at this beautiful home. Beach access and view was amazing. Easy access to grocery store and shopping both directions. Owner quick to respond if needed and had local suggestions for activities and dining.

Amazing Beach House

This awesome house has plenty of room for a large family to stretch out and be comfortable. Every room has a window looking out at the ocean. To get to the water, it’s only a couple steps from the driveway to the sand. I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect place to stay!

Great Repeat Stay

We stayed at this house a few years ago when we visited and loved it so we were so happy to see it open during our desired time for this recent trip. The home is great and close to everything we wanted to do.

Location was great. Fantastic Ocean frontage. House was a bit musty/moldy and triggered some allergies, but is not totally unexpected for a beach house

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!!!!

Haleiwa Heaven

I’ve stayed at Jim’s property twice now, both times have been great. Having beach access in your backyard and falling asleep to the waves is a dream. Jim’s house is close to waimea bay and downtown Haleiwa. We even saw a sea turtle from the house deck this year. One note for those that are used to AC, this house doesn’t have AC so it will take a day or two to get used to it, but having the windows open is amazing, you constantly hear the waves. 5 stars Jim!

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.

Great location

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.

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.

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.

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.

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
