Loved the location-right on Hukilau beach. Sunrise walk every morning! Comfortable and clean. Thank you!

We were made to feel very welcome by our hosts and given great local information and what to do and where to go. The accommodation description was accurate and the Beach Mini cottage is directly on the beach, 30 meters away. A family friendly safe beach, with turtles swimming with us everyday. Simple but

Were kind to accommodate us last-minute. We loved the place. The location was fabulous. The beach was so close and perfectly quiet and gorgeous.

Jared's place in La'ie is an easy accomodation for travelling around Oahu, the beach is 20 steps from the cottage and the cottage itself has everything you may need. We felt like home and would definitely recommend!

I'm so glad we stayed here for part of our time in Oahu, it was a much needed contrast from the bustle of Waikiki. The cottage was clean and comfortable and the owner was there to greet us upon our arrival. The beach was incredible and only steps away, I'll miss spending the evenings out there. There's much to do close by - we filled our days with outdoor activities and good places to eat. If you're looking for something simple and affordable, this is the place to stay. If you're into fancier places, you might want to look elsewhere. For us, it was perfect. I'm not sure of the rental situation but know that this cottage is located right next to another one of their rental properties. We kept the curtains shut a good amount of the time for privacy but luckily the renters were only there 2 days of our stay. All in all, this is a great place for a great price. Thanks for a memorable experience!

We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage. It is rustic and cozy, and literally about 100 feet to the beach. While it is right on the main highway through town, we were never bothered by road noise, and my wife is a fairly light sleeper. If you are looking for a fancy, pristine place isolated from the sounds, smells, and feel of the ocean and beach, this might not be the place for you. We loved it!

When we contacted Minerva that we were there, she came to greet us right away. She explained a few procedures.

Our stay at the Cottage was fantastic! The location was pristine, literally right on the beach. It is conveniently located to little eateries and is a short drive to Haleiwa. I would definitely recommend this cottage for a couple who is willing to spare on space for the location and view. The main house is also located on the property however we felt that we had adequate privacy. Thank you Jared & family for being so accommodating and letting us experience your mini beach cottage! :)

We came here for our honeymoon. My husband loves to live like a local when he travels and this place did not disappoint!! Travel to the North Shore and Haleiwa was so easy!! We loved our stay. Being from Texas, the a/c was AWESOME and such a plus! The small kitchenette allowed us to have breakfast before we went exploring the island. Lanai is perfect for exploring the entire island, generally an hour drive to the other side. The Ohana House has everything you need for the beach! The beach umbrella came in handy when my husband was surfing and rain hit while I was hanging out on the beach. My husband got some awesome video on our GoPro because of the snorkeling gear at the Ohana House. The neighborhood beach was perfect for an afternoon walk to talk about our dreams. I would definitely recommend this place for a couple or a small family. The neighborhood has some great restaurants as well. This is definitely a place we will return to! Thanks again, Joe!

We had a wonderful time staying at the Ohana. The beach was very relaxing and just a stone's throw away. The waves were mild - perfect for our 1 year old daughter to enjoy playing in the sand. On most days we had it completely to ourselves. The waves crashing at night were the perfect soundtrack to our stay. On several mornings we woke up before dawn to watch the sunrise at the point - a 5 minute walk. The Ohana is newly remodeled and quite comfortable. The neighborhood is friendly and we felt very welcome. Joe and Lindsay did an excellent job making our stay enjoyable and memorable. We look forward to visiting again.

We had a lovely stay at the Ohana house, the host was very responsive and accommodating! The location is great being away from the crowds and close to the north shore beaches but yet not to far from making a short trip down to Waikiki and Honolulu. The kitchen was very nice and had everything we needed to cook meals during our stay. The private beach was a little tricky to find but it was beautiful and a short walk away. We thought the included beach chairs, towels and cooler were great and used them nearly everyday. We had a great time and would defiantly recommend to anyone!

This was an incredible spot to stay during our week in Oahu! The place is updated, clean, and beautiful, as pictured. The amenities were plentiful so cooking on site was a breeze. The place also had snorkeling gear and extra towels which we took full advantage of. The hosts in the main house were super accommodating and recommended places to go and the best places to eat. One of the best parts about this place was the beach that was literally a 5 minute walk away and was virtually empty the whole time. We would definitely stay here during our next trip to Oahu!

The Ohana was exactly as pictured. All amenities were provided: from laundry soap/dryer sheets, shampoo/conditioner and all the cooking tools. The added bonus was having some beach toys to enjoy. Joe was impeccable with communication! The only negative was the day we checked out, ending our holiday. Mahalo Joe:)

Our stay at The Ohana Laie Point was great! The apartment was beautiful and very clean, it had everything we needed to spend a wonderful time in Laie. The view from the apartment was stunning and so easy to access a private and beautiful beach. Really convenient location and a great neighborhood. Joe was a wonderful host, he did everything to provide a smooth arrival and departure. He was always quick to respond and willing to help.

This was a great place for our little family of three. Any more than that and it might be a bit too tight. The location was perfect with so many awesome beaches nearby and Joe was very helpful throughout.

This is a beautiful place, an extraordinary location, and recently and tastefully redecorated. The hosts, Matty and Lindsay, did a great job of welcoming us and responding to our questions and needs. Matty even drove to Honolulu to get a new dvd player when we couldn't get the existing one to work. I would recommend this place for a couple, or a family of three, but it was pretty cramped for our family of five. Also, the house needs air conditioning, at least in July (and probably August) when the trade winds aren't blowing. Even with all windows and doors open and all fans going, it was usually too hot to be comfortable. Overall a great experience, but a little rougher than we expected, in terms of creature comforts.

ein super nettes Ehepaar, sehr herzlich! Kann man nur empfehlen, geben Tipps für Besichtigungen und für nicht so touristische Sachen. wir hatten alles, was wir brauchten! Waschen war kein Problem. Man fühlte sich sicher und gut aufgehoben! Sehr tolle Gegend, wenig touristisch. Kurze Wege zu wirklich tollen Stränden. Immer wieder kommen wir gerne zurück! 1000 Dank an Derrick und Rachel für den wunderbaren Aufenthalt!! Aloha bis zum nächsten Mal!

Rachel and Derek are a lovely couple with an incredible little gem of an Airbnb. If you want a great location and tour guides for hosts, then this place is for you.

Our hosts were fabulous, extremely welcoming and informative. They gave us so much great local information about where to go and what to do, all of it was useful.

Spectacular view of Laie Point! The backyard is the ocean. We fell asleep to the sound of waves every night. Our hosts were great in answering questions and gave us plenty of suggestions for North Shore! Very sweet people!

House and pool very nice. The view from the patio is spectacular. Banzai pipeline and sunset Beach just a few minutes away. Lots of great stuff to do. Beaches are out of this world. Hosts very knowledgeable of the area. It's a must place to stay!!!!

This place is so beautiful. Very relaxing waking up to the sound of waves crashing. And what a view. Rachel and her husband are very sweet people. Very helpful on what sites to see and beaches to go to. Loved our stay.

Rachel was very responsive from the time I booked their property. On arrival she helped us by pointing out all the must-visit places. We definitely enjoyed their outdoor pool and the outdoor shower. While there were not many good restaurnt choices in the neighbourhood, it was within reasonable driving distance to places like Dole Plantation and Haleiwa Town. With Polynesian Cultural Center 1 mile away, we were able to capitalize the multi day re-entry privilege and took our time to enjoy all the shows.

Wonderful home in a wonderful location. Very gracious hosts.

Our stay was very nice and peaceful. The hosts were very friendly and informative. Pros: Tiki moon villa's proximity to the ocean is the closest you can get. Watching sunrise by the ocean from the villa was a great experience. It has a very comfortable bed and an awesome kitchen to cook your meals. Cons: The shower stall could have been a little bigger; not many great options to go eat out in a 10 mile range.

Nice place. There are several units on the property.

Ray的House非常棒!我和家人在9.17-9.23在那住了一周。房间设施完备,大家都非常友好!房子是面东的,可以看到非常美丽的日出!和照片上一模一样。感谢Ray分享这么好的度假房!我会向我得朋友们强烈推荐。

和千篇一律的酒店相比,这里更加有趣和随意,尤其是对孩子们来说! 胖海狮经常趴在门口的沙滩上晒太阳,院子里到处都是鸡和猫,那只叫Hooler的黑猫和人特别亲,白天晚上都赖在我们的房间里。日出的景色非常美。 唯一的不足是,预定时的图片和文字使我们以为住处是一栋独立的小建筑,而实际上房主将一栋房子分割成相对独立的单元出租。因此房间的大小和私密性都低于预期。 总的来说,住在这里感觉很独特,与自然和动物在一起,使人轻松懒散无忧无虑。

Beautiful villa right on the beach. Loved being able to walk right off of the patio onto the sand. The beach right behind the villa was stunning and felt very private. The villa itself was quite nice also. Very comfortable king bed and large kitchen with new appliances.

The host canceled this reservation 73 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Gina showed us Aloha throughout our stay, starting with her thorough "Welcome" email, and ending with sending us off with a stack of free pizza coupons for a pizzeria in Ewa when she heard we were going to be visiting family there. Her home is beautifully decorated in a Hawaii/beach theme, and comes complete with towels/beach toys for the kids. Myself, my mother, and my 3 small kids (5,4,and 2yo) were very pleasantly surprised by the spacious, and open layout of the house. If your trip is going to have you spending time on the windward side or north shore, Gina's place is perfect! Directly across the street from Hukilau beach park, 5 minutes away from the Polynesian Cultural Center, and right off Kamehameha Highway, I was surprised the place wasn't already booked when I was planning our short notice trip! If you're wanting to experience Oahu away from Waikiki, the location of Gina's house in Laie is hard to beat!

Really enjoyed working with Gina. If you are looking for a place off the beaten path this is for you. The house was spacious, only problem we had was parking, but Gina resolved the issue immediately.

Our stay was great! had 2 bedrooms as advertised - one with a king sized bed (taking up 2/3 of the room) and the other with a bunk bed. Having laundry facilities was nice. And all the 'small appliances' in the kitchen we would want for our stay. Our original host sold the house and we were notified a few days before our stay... surprising and a little nerve-racking. But the new host, Katie, was great and the host change did not affect us. Our internet was down for one day and she got on addressing it immediately. She was great with texts and replying very quickly. She even left us a pineapple and wished us 'sweet holidays!' a nice and sweet gesture. There was a great beach few houses down, and it was beautiful. Grocery store nearby, overall convenient location. Great value for Hawaii (especially during the marked up times of the holidays).

The hosts were so accomodating. We really appreciated it. The neighborhood is great and convenient.

Great value and location.

Great location! Stayed when the waves were topping 45 feet in Waimea Bay, so the beautiful Laie Point down the street was a sight to see! The house is located very close to a Foodland Supermarket. I do want to note that there is no alcohol sold anywhere in Laie. I like to have mimosas in the mornings while on vacation here :). It is a close ten minutes or less drive to Kahuku though to get to a liquor store. Just a minor inconvenience. As for the house, everything was fine. The bathroom tub isn't as updated as I hoped it would be but it served its purpose. Katie was a great host with easy communication; she had everything from beach chairs to rubbing alcohol. We BBQ'ed and realized the trash can provided is way too small. We threw out the trash three times, but i did appreciate the extra trash bags. Overall, excellent and I would stay again for the comfort of feeling at home and the location.

The pineapple shack is in a quiet residential area in Laie - within a 5 minute walk is a supermarket and a few eateries. Giovanni's Shrimp truck is a 5 minute drive down the road and well worth a visit! Also at the end of the street is a beautiful lookout, good for sunsets. It's actually the spot where they filmed a section of Forgetting Sarah Marshall (where they jump off the cliff). The space is quite small, we had just us two - I probably wouldn't recommend a family of 6 staying! The main bedroom is also very small and can get quite stuffy - I would suggest keeping all the windows open. The bed in the main bedroom is very very very hard which was a bit of a bummer, we ended up sleeping on the pull out sofa because we just couldn't get any sleep on the bed. I would definitely recommend an upgrade of the bed as it was so uncomfortable. Otherwise, the house is well equipped with beach gear and Katie was an excellent host.

The Pineapple Shack was a perfect for my daughter and I. I enjoyed walking to the beach every morning and even caught a few sunrises. The outdoor shower located on the property was awesome! The location was perfect in a quiet residential neighborhood but walking distance to Foodland market and the best burger restaurant Seven Brothers. I also ended most days by walking to Laie Point to watch the waves and the fisherman and the spectacular views (located at the end of the street Small tour buses drive by all day long bringing in tourists to see the view. The Pineapple Shack really felt like home. It was fully stocked with toileties and all the kitchen essentials as well. It was nice and clean with super cute beach decor. The bed in one of the rooms is advertised as a king bed but it is a queen bed at best. It is also very firm. This is important to note for couuples who are not used to sharing a smaller bed. The air conditioner in this guest room was a life saver! And we appreciated the ceiling fans in every room. Overall, there is so much to do,see, eat, and experience on Oahu's North Shore. Do yourself a favor and book the Pineapple Shack.

Great location to the sea, especially for watching sunrise!

The place is so beautiful! Katie is really nice and helpful. Thank you so much!

We absolutely loved our stay here. This home is within walking distance of the beach, the Laie Latter-day Saint Temple, and some shops and stores. Additionally it is a longer walk or an extremely short drive to BYU-Hawaii and the Polynesian Cultural Center. Also, if you enjoy running/walking/biking the home is about 3 tenths of a mile away from the the Malaekahana Bike path which runs along the Kamehameha Highway for about 1.5 miles and makes a good 3.7 mile out and back distance from the rental home. The home is very clean and has air conditioning in each room. It was ideal for our 15-month old baby to take his naps during the late morning and afternoon (a pack-n-play was provided). The yard is very beautiful; each time we looked out the window or stepped outside we felt like we were in paradise. It is also nice to have the full kitchen. We were able to eat out for half of our stay and cook our own meals for the other half. We even used pre-made cookie dough from the store to bake chocolate chip cookies twice. We definitely recommend this place to anybody and we will stay here again whenever we come back to Hawaii.

We had a wonderful stay. The feeling was a the same as our Hyatt Resort, where things are provided to make you feel at home. The listing was accurate. Several activities: Climb Works, polynesian cultural center, Turtle Beach, BYU-Hawaii, close access to many beaches. Several other activities within 30 minutes, Dole Plantation, Waimae Waterfall and Kahuku Farms.

Natalie was wonderful and made us feel right at home from the start! She gave us lots of info on local events going on during our stay and good places to eat. Everything was as described and so clean! A/C was wonderful throughout the home and made sleeping very comfortable in a very hot July. Only have great things to say about this rental!

* Natalie was a great hostess. She greeted us the day we arrived and promptly responded to our questions about the rental, Laie, local beaches, restaurants, activities, etc. * Natalie was generous and accommodating to some personal needs we had during our visit. * Her rental is very clean, and it looks just like the pictures. * The grounds are beautifully landscaped. * The A/C worked well in each room. * The rental is inviting, and everything appeared to be new. * The kitchen was fully stocked. * The TVs were large with Directv in each room. * Private off-street parking was convenient.

Natalie was very warm and welcoming to my family. She was an awesome and friendly host.

Thank you so much for your warm hospitality! My girls are still asking when we can come back so they can play with your sweet girls again : ) We absolutely loved staying in your house, if our vacation plans could have been different we would have preferred to book your place for all 10 days! The home was extremely clean, comfortable & roomy, you went above and beyond when you decorated & stocked it, we lacked nothing. It felt more like a 5 star resort than a guest house. We would stay here again in a heartbeat! Thanks again, CK

We had an amazing stay at this home. The host Natalie was so kind and helpful. The house is close to everything on the North Shore of Oahu. The house was kept very clean and everything inside the home was first class. We will definitely be returning to stay at this house again in the future. Our party of 8 was very comfy.

Wonderful, upscale place to stay. Felt like home. Natalie was welcoming when we arrived and was helpful during our entire stay as needed. Loved the quiet life of the North Shore! Would recommend this place for anyone.
