Majestic zen oasis
This is an incredible property right in the middle of everything but feels millions of miles away. Well stocked with beach towels, linens, beach toys, and everything a family could need for an escape to Hawaii. The downstairs "outdoor" shower was particularly enjoyable. I hope we can book again for our next Hawaii excursion.

Relaxing Christmas Getaway
My family and I stayed at this beautiful VRBO for 9 nights over the Christmas holidays. It did not disappoint! It felt like we were living in a tree house in the middle of a jungle. The birds sung to us in the morning and the trade winds kept us cool in the evening. The beaches were close by and within walking distance. Overall, I would highly recommend this VRBO to anyone with families numbering 3 to 6.

Unforgettable Family Vacation
Beautiful property located by Diamond Head hiking trail and just minutes walking distance to the beach. The property is well equipped cooking utensils. The host provides beach towels, chairs, and umbrellas. If you’re into fitness and like to workout before starting your day this property has a route for running and walking that is next to the beach. The property is fully gated and secluded surrounded by palm trees just away from all of the busy downtown noise. It was the perfect vacation and highly recommended. The host J LO is amazing and helpful.

This is a great spot if you want a nice quiet retreat. Short walk down a steep hill to the water and also very close to Waikiki. Host is on premises and super nice. If the pool is finished for you it will be even better.

Private, rustic and beautiful setting
The listing and photographs are accurate. Our group was a young family with two toddlers upstairs and grandparents in their 60s downstairs. The setup was perfect for us. Host was great. This is a rustic way to stay in a very safe neighborhood for active people. There is outdoor lighting in the evenings, so beautiful. The stairs outside are wide and safe. There are multiple sitting areas outside with weathered handmade furniture throughout the grounds, so nice. The air conditioning worked well upstairs and downstairs in the bedroom. The host provided 2 boogie boards, snorkeling gear, beach towels, sand toys, umbrellas and a wagon to pull everything. Having a large washer and dryer with soap was a plus. The kitchen had everything we needed. The downstairs bathroom has a guppy tank and fish food to feed them. :)The beds were comfortable with nice linens. The property is located at the top of the hill in a canyon at the base of diamond head. We walked to Waikiki several times. Other than the hill the home is on (quite steep) it is an easy 20-30 minute flat walk into the city. There is a small, beautiful beach and park with picnic tables at the base of the street - perfect to watch the sunset one evening. We did have to keep a close eye on the babies outside with all the stairs. Overall, if you are active, don't mind exercise/hills and enjoy a more outdoor experience you will love this beautiful setting.

Cozy Jungle Cottage
Unique, beautiful property! We were taken aback by its beauty upon arrival! We enjoyed the outdoor atmosphere the most, and listened to the birds morning and evening. The house is charming, but has a few quirks as often comes with older homes. Its location is nestled in a little canyon, so it feels remote and private, but you are still close to the beach and other activities in the area. Please regard the description of the stairs in and out. Our party had three generations, and while most of us didn’t mind (and actually enjoyed the exercise) it is definitely not grandparent friendly for most. It was nice to have access to the beach toys and ice chest in the laundry building as well. Joe was attentive and helpful. Would love to have stayed longer!

Fantastic stay at THE base of Diamond Head
Very lovely location, gated & private parking and we were closer to the beach then realized! The home has ALL amenities imagined for your stay amd the liason is more than happy to offer insight on places to go to eat, hike, etc. Must stay here! Only challenge is the roly poly guys that visit the lower house and require frequent sweeping but it's worth it. Thanks JLo!

Beautiful sanctuary of tranquility and nature
This is a jewel in Oahu - we love the surroundings and the beautiful placements of statues that remind us of zen and tranquility. As you walk down to the cottage, you can feel the sense of relaxation seeping into your body. Lots of places to sit and simply hear the sounds of birds singing. The property manager JLo is super friendly and responsive to questions. Bring bug spray or mosquito repellent..Very close to Diamond head and the beach…easy walk down but a walk uphill to get back to the house. We would come here again when we visit Oahu…

Beautiful oasis in Honolulu!!
We stayed here with our toddler to attend a wedding in Waikiki. The property is unreal. You’re right up against Diamond Head. It’s a hidden gem for those who have things to do in Waikiki, but want to unplug away from the hustle and bustle. The property itself was wonderful. Spacious. The view out from the living room is absolutely stunning and mystical. AC works well, water pressure was great. The home was clean, and has all the basics you need in it. We loved the decor and the polished concrete touches here and there throughout the home. There are steps, but if you have one of those super active adventurous toddlers, they’ll be singing and walking up and down those stairs without issues :)

Old Hawaii Spirit with Spectacular Views
Such a lovely, secluded property! We were looking to avoid the bustle of Waikiki yet still be able to meet up with our family staying downtown and this was the perfect place. If you're looking for high-end, resort-level service and amenities, this is not the place for you. If you're looking for the charm of old Hawaii in a quiet and peaceful location, with the sights and sounds of nature at your doorstep, you can't go wrong here. So many fun and interesting details around the property from trails to plants to statues, with an abundance of sitting and meditation areas to take it all in. Some pointers: check cupboards/closets/drawers for items left by previous guests before buying anything! Plenty of useful items are already available. Only suggestions I have that might improve the experience would be the addition of some ceiling fans, especially with the limited AC, and maybe a few clothes hampers and small trash cans in the rooms. Of course a pool would also be amazing, but it looks like that may already be in the works? All in all, it was a beautiful experience! Our teenagers stayed upstairs, my husband and I took the basement room, with our 8 year old son in the screened-in entry. He loved the "camping" feel of that space - particularly hearing the birds each morning. He was also a big fan of the "shower fish" :-) Mahalo for the memories!
