I loved the location of this property. Close enough to Honolulu and Waikiki for the hustle and bustle of city life and all of the attractions, yet quiet enough to meet the locals and actually feel apart of the island.
This property provided us with everything that you would have in your own home. All of the beach equipment was an additional and unexpected surprise. Would definitely stay again.

Loved our stay at Makaha Valley. Loved the location. Loved the distance from the city center. We enjoyed nice drives to the beach, to the mall, to North Shore and other actives on the Island. Makaha Valley was peaceful and those around us were police and friendly. WOULD definitely go back. Thank you so much

This is an excellent condo. Owner did a great job to make sure there is everything a person could need away from home. We were impressed of how many beach toys are there, life jackets, chairs, umbrella, and even a folding cart to carry all that to the beach. Property is very peaceful, neighbors are quiet, two wonderful pools and hot tubs (if one is closed you can walk a few min to another one). Location was a little further away than I expected. It’s at least 1 hour drive to anything. During rush hour traffic is very slow and takes even longer to get back. But if you don’t plan to see sites, there is a Makaha beach that is 5 min driving distance (you still need a car to drive to eat-too far to walk). Beach is very clean and has interesting rocks further back that kids enjoyed looking at full of little crabs and tiny fish. Other beaches nearby are not clean-lots of human trash, food, cigarette buds. We drove a few times to wonderful Ko Olina lagoon #4 and that was resort like beach with no waves. If you can’t find parking, Ko Olina Marina has paid parking options. Important to know that last 40 min of driving to condo every day will be through very poor parts of Oahu and thousands of homeless camps by the road. We have seen people on drugs, fighting, tons of homeless animals. It was a new side of Hawaii that we have seen this time around staying in locals area and not in touristy Hawaii that we are used to. But condo itself is safe and amazing. Thank you owners!

Place was pleasure to stay. Kids have fun at swimming pool. Wilderness of the valley was stunned for our sight couldn't get enough of the view each time we drove. Host was always responsive right away when we had questions. Will recommend for those who want to be away from crowded places of tourists

We really enjoyed our stay! My kids, 9yr and 6yr, loved all the peacocks. We felt very safe, and it was located a few minutes from the beach and golf course which were both beautiful and not busy at all. We would definitely stay here in the future.

We came to Oahu to move our daughter into Hawaii Pacific University. This condo was perfect for our needs. Plenty of space with two bedrooms that could be private space as needed. Air conditioned. Pea cocks and pea hens and baby peacocks have free run of the gated community. Full kitchen with plenty of pots and pans, dishes, silverware, and cooking tools. Hot water was plentiful. Lots of extras. This is clearly a family beach house. I will want to come back here when we pick up our daughter this spring.

We really liked Shelley's condo. Everything is top clean. She thought about everything to facilitate your stay (all beach gears including umbrella, toys, chairs, boogie boards, masks/tuba, etc), games for all the family. Kitchen is fully furnished and rooms are very comfortable. That's a remote location into the Makaha valley.
Shelley was easy to join and wants its guests to have a great stay.
Mahalo!

The location of this property was beautiful & convenient. The amenities were great, gorgeous scenery & views all around the pool areas. Everyone we met in the community were very friendly too. The beach gear is all provided which was really helpful. There were only 3 of us and this condo fit us comfortably. We did feel that there were some things lacking when it came to the cleanliness of the unit, as well as the upkeep of some things. Random lightbulbs were out, fans not working- things like that. The living room furniture upholstery could use a good cleaning too. There is no ac in the bedrooms which made them a bit stuffy during the day, but they get a decent breeze at night as long as you have the window open and the working fans on. The WiFi during our stay was spotty at times, there were some evenings that the Netflix/streaming options were not available to use b/c of the signal. Overall though we had a very enjoyable stay & would even stay there again. The pros of the location, community & price outweighed the cons for us.

We had a great experience, we really didn't stay for too long during the day so it was a great place after our daily activities to rest and plan the following adventure. It was nice to be away from the crowds. Very clean too.

We got here to Makaha Plantation a little early and was able to check in with no issues. Once we finally got settled it was like being at home, very comfortable and relaxing. Shelly was very responsive to me, and helped every way she could. The peacocks were the highlight for my kids and myself. I think I have more pictures of them than I do the island. Staying out this way is definitely for those who do not mind driving, and like to really experience the culture of the island. We can’t wait to come back!

We had a beautiful experience. This was our first family trip to Hawaii. We had to unexpectedly change our travel dates. Shelley was the best! So easy to work with. Very accommodating. The rental was just as described. In the country and out of the hustle and bustle. We loved it. Everything we needed was available for us so we could spend good quality time at the beach! We will be back.

We enjoyed our time in Hawaii and the condo. Checking in was an ease, the security staff were friendly and professional, the peacocks roming the grounds was a favorite of my kids. Lots of things in the condo for my kids to play with, no extra noise keeping us awake from neighbors, kitchen stocked with everything we needed. No complaints at all, well maybe the view...but that is minor. Will definitely look into this property when we vacation here again.

Fun west side stay
The west shore of hawaii is a more local experience, compared to the touristy waikiki. This has its pros and cons, but the it is hard to beat the quiet beauty of the west shore beaches. The condo itself is great, safe neighborhood and a relaxing stay!

Lovely property in isolated location
We enjoyed our stay at this property in the Makaha Valley near the town of Waianae on the west coast of Oahu. Pros—well-stocked, clean unit in a pleasant complex. We were missing some backup paper products like TP, paper towels, and tissue. Since we were four adults, those were needed! Everything else was well provided. Beds were comfy, sleeping comfortable with open windows and fans. Cons—2nd floor was a little hard for hauling luggage for us seniors, really the only one was that it was far from most of the places we wanted to visit. Everything was an hour and a half away! But the area was beautiful and less touristy. So if you want a relaxing vacay and not a sightseeing one, this is a great spot.

Truly Clean
This condo has a great view of Oahu's spectacular mountains. The condo is truly clean as described. I appreciate the items that were provided to make us guests feel like we're at home. The instructions regarding check-in and our stay were clear so we didn't need to contact the owners for that information. My only criticism is that I wished there were more mirrors in the bedrooms or vanity for guests to get ready.

Makaha Escape
Cute & Clean place. The boogie boards, beach chairs and sand toys were a plus! Shelly was always so quick and very helpful to answer my questions.

Very enjoyable.
Well supplied and nice. We didn't know the house number so it took a minute to find the reservation at the office. Our bathroom was pretty dark because only one bulb was working, but I never got around to report it.
We enjoyed our time there.

Great location, quiet neighborhood.
Great place to stay, away from the crowds and traffic. Very close to beautiful beaches, shopping, the westside mountains. We stayed a week and were disappointed that the pool close to the unit was closed for renovation. We also had a small emergency on our last night and didn’t hear back from the owner until the next morning. Would’ve been better to have a contact at the complex. But everything else was great - clean & comfortable with all the beach necessities and comforts of home. Mahalo.

Makaha for two weeks
We just returned from two weeks in Hawaii. We loved our stay at Shelley's place. The place was very clean and has everything you need to be comfortable as well as for the beach. It is a quiet place with two pools located around 50 minutes from Honolulu. We highly recommand it. Access was easy as well as contact with the owner.
