We stayed at this wonderful home for more than 30 days, including over Christmas and New Year’s.
The place is very spacious, with different areas for sitting, eating, lounging and taking in the ocean. The best part is the lookout to the ocean - it is just a few meters from the property and waves can be heard all day and night. We also saw many turtles from the balcony daily.
We made breakfast and dinner at the house nearly everyday - it had most of what we needed for cooking, although we had to get creative sometimes (limited oven space).
Having 4 toilets and 3 showers was a game changer - we had teens who like to shower and take time getting ready. Having 2 washers and dryers also helped a lot with keeping beach towels and linens clean.
We greatly appreciated the garage being stocked with everything we needed for the beach - surf boards, boogie boards, chairs, umbrellas, snorkelling gear, and more.
The location in Laie was ideal for exploring North Shore. A few things were also walkable from the house - Foodland grocery store, beach, state park. Many from our family woke up early to walk down to Laie point to take in the sunrise and then pop down to the beach for a walk.
A few suggestions to make the stay even better
- recycling & garbage was hard to manage as the pickups did not happen at all or were late.
- parking is tight with a large truck renting 1 of the parking spots
-outdoor porch was closed off due to damage needing repair
Overall a treaaure!

We had a lovely time during our month in Hawaii. The views are beyond beautiful and the decks on each level are fantastic! We had some family that could stay for 2 weeks and others that stayed the whole month. There were 11 of us together for about 2 of the 4 weeks we rented the house and we never felt cramped. The views are amazing! The only cons (NOT dealbreakers at all) were there are no dressers or places to store clothes so you’re living out of your suitcase the entire time. There aren’t any hangers in the closet to hang things up either. And the extra sleeping arrangements are mattresses that are stored in the bedroom closets to pull out on the floor, but clean blankets and sheets are provided. Kids don’t care much about that so it wasn’t a big deal for us. There are 4 actual Queen or king size beds and a twin trundle bed, plus a couple extra mattresses. Also, the AC in the kitchen is the only one on the main floor so it gets hot during the day. The bedroom AC’s and the downstairs apartment AC work well and there are lots of fans. Being able to do laundry was wonderful!! We would hands down stay here again!! The property manager was pretty quick at getting answers to questions and helping when we needed it. The neighborhood is very safe and you can easily walk to the grocery store, PCC, BYUH, etc. Technically you could walk to the beach, but it would be difficult to take beach gear without a car. We wholeheartedly recommend this home. It truly does feel like home.

My family and I had the pleasure of staying at this house for the month of June 2022. We absolutely loved the house including the view, location, bed arrangements, window A/C, & spacious decks. I can’t say enough about the spectacular view. The few issues we had were taken care of immediately. When we arrived the master bedroom A/C unit was broken and it was replaced early the next day. I would like to note that the house is not newly built, so if you’re looking for a resort feel with brand new interior, this is not the house for you. For the price per night, it’s a steal!! The beach is close by - there are 2 beaches that are walking distance. Turtle Bay is about a 15 min drive and Sharks Cove is about 25 min drive. Laie is a very small town with kind locals and everything you need for a paradise vacation. You won’t regret!

Everything was great with one exception. The neighbor had a large dog that came over a few times barking. This limited our use of the patio near the water. Other than that, it was awesome.

My family and I wanted to stay in a house on the water and this location was perfect. We immediately felt right at home and plan to stay again.

My husband and I rented the house for 4 nights and the place surpassed our expectations. The communication with the property manager was clear and she always responded within the same day. Everything about the house was clean and nice. We had enough space for our out of town guests visiting for our wedding. There were lots of amenities for cooking etc. etc. we never had to wait around for the bathroom cus there were 4! And let me tell you about the view. It was breathtaking!! If you’re looking for a quiet place for a staycation or for family vacation this is the perfect place!!

Very nice house and great location. The only suggestion to have for this house to get 10/10 is to add another A/C in the living room as it could very warm in the afternoon.

It was a memorable experience. The unit was perfect for our extended family. A lot of room to spread out and really nice ocean views. Except for the main home being hot in the afternoon (needs an additional air conditioner(s) to cool the larger family area) our stay was nice and cozy.

We stayed at this home with 3 families a total of 6 adults and 4 kids. There was plenty of room, we cooked our meals, plenty of kitchen utensils, and everything we needed. Beautiful view, lots of beaches close by, walking distance to markets and restaurants. A very quiet and safe neighborhood which was very important to us. We would rent it again, our family loved it.

This was a return visit for us, and we arrived to find the place clean, beautifully furnished and with that stunning view! The kitchen is incredibly well stocked with dishes, pans, cutlery etc which was a huge blessing to us as we went to host Thanksgiving dinner for our kids who are living in Laie. There are multiple sitting and eating areas which are perfect for a family or small group to spread out. Couldn't have asked for a more comfortable place to share the holiday :) The owner and manager were readily available when we had a question or two, and we really loved staying here. Thank you Miriam and Elena!

We spent a few days in this house during our last trip to Oahu.
This house had unbeatable views. There were three different balconies looking over the ocean. It was located right in the heart of Laie, within walking distance to food, snacks, gas, grocery stores, beaches, etc. It's a few minutes drive to Polynesian Cultural Center (to the south), and food trucks, snorkeling, and beautiful beaches (to the north).
Including the studio, it could comfortably sleep 12-14 people. The kitchen was well stocked. With Foodland just around the corner, you could cook three meals a day and save a ton of money. There were plenty of towels, blankets, sheets, etc. If you get bored of the view, there were also books and games to keep you entertained.
We take away one star because of the slow wifi and the overall condition of the house. We could barely use the wifi. In the end we had to set up our own hot spots. The house was old and in need of some renovations. The bathtub sliding door in the hall bathroom almost fell off, for example. The bathtub itself was rusty and needed to be replaced.
Overall, we would recommend it for the view and convenient location.

Great location, fun times!

First of all, the pictures don't do this house justice. It has three lanais all with amazing views of Laie Bay and Hukilau Beach. It is also roomier and newer than it looks in the pictures. We loved the layout of the house, 4 bedrooms upstairs all with A/C (which we didn't have to use at all but becomes a big deal during the summer) and a huge suite downstairs. The main level has a common area that is large and has great views. Kitchen was new and well stocked. The location is also perfect. The manager Laura was also amazing to work with. There are just a few little things about the house that have been neglected that keep it from being a 5 star rental. The floors were dirty on our arrival and certain parts of the house haven't been dusted in awhile. The 2 barbecue grills were so rusted and dirty that they were eyesores and should be thrown away. The beach gear was weathered. Certain parts of the house could use a fresh coat of paint or some updated furniture. Again, nothing major and we loved our stay in this house and would stay again - it just needs a little attention to some small details.

2017 was our 5th time staying at this house and we rented both the main house and the downstairs studio. The amount of space is so good. Large common area allows for several different activities to occur at the same time. The kitchen is open so the chefs don't feel isolated from any of the action. The beds leave a little to be desired, but being so tired from day and evening activities, it almost doesn't matter.
It's a bit of a walk to the beaches (5-10 min), but so worth it once you get to it. We go to the beach south of the house. There's a nice wide stretch of sand, some reef area great for snorkeling and also an expanse for rock free swimming, tide pools to explore when the tide is low.
Phsically, the house is not pristine or perfect (a toilet wobbles, screens are broken, there are unpainted patches, floor in the studio is uneven), but for families with young rambunctious children, this house works just fine! And the price is right, not outrageous like other properties that require 7 night minimum stays. We're staying again in 2018!

A large group of friends and I decided to make a trip out to the North Shore of Oahu and this house was perfect for it. It was extremely spacious and even with 15 people, the house never felt too crowded. With that many people, we were very thankful that there were 3 bathrooms and 1 half bathroom along with two whole kitchens. When we arrived, the house was spotless and there was even more furniture than what was shown in the pictures. It was 3 stories and had a large driveway with a large covered parking area.
What I think was not stressed enough was how amazing the outdoor patios of this house are. There were three outdoor patios attached to the house facing out towards the ocean and an additional patio area in the backyard area. The additional patio area was a perfect area for hanging out and just relaxing in the backyard while enjoying the beautiful ocean waves.
The owners had all the proper amenities such as two washers and dryers, blankets, towels, beach necessities, and all the necessary kitchenware. It even had a large flat screen TV in the main lounge area. The owners were very easy to get into touch with and were very responsive when we had questions.
This was a perfect place to get away from the crowds yet still located close enough to do anything on the island. It is very close to the famous Polynesian Cultural Center and there are supermarkets and eateries very nearby. For those who like to run, this house is perfect as one could easily run onto the beach from this house and there is a nice running trail around the area.
I would recommend this house to anyone with a large party. This house was amazing and it was a large reason I had an amazing time in Hawaii. Anytime anyone goes to Oahu, I will highly recommend this place.

The house itself is gorgeous, with breathtaking view of the water. My favorite activity is star gazing at the porch while listening to the gentle sound of the ocean. The house is very spacious so there is always space for everyone to hangout comfortably.

Stayed here for a week long vacation and this was the perfect spot. The stunning view from the 3 balconies could not be beat. The house had everything we needed and more. Definitely staying here next time I visit!

Our family of 8 adults and 2 kids had a fantastic 10 day stay at the Hidden Gemstone.
The house is very bright and spacious. It has the most stunning view of the ocean.
The kitchen, living room, dining room and common areas are really well designed to provide a lot of space and it was perfect for our family.
The location is great. A one minute drive from the Laie shopping center and a 3 minute drive to the beach. Some of the most famous attractions on the island (Sharks Cove, Waimea Beach, Waimea falls, Haleiwa beach) are a 20-30 minute drive away.
Laura, the lady who oversees the property was very helpful and we received clear communication & direction from her.
I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who is visiting the North Shore of Oahu.

My family of 10 stayed in the main house as well as the attached studio apartment and it was even better than what we were expecting. The house was very well kept and the kitchen is newly remodeled and included all the appliances we needed. I cannot say enough about the balcony views overlooking the ocean. Unfortunately you cannot access the beach from the backyard but the closest beach is just a short drive away. The common living area had more than enough space to entertain my entire family and other guests that were staying in town.
The bedrooms were very cozy and the house also came with a few extra mattresses in case more sleeping space was required. The master bedroom had its own balcony with the best view in the house! A local market (Foodland) was right down the street and was very convenient. It may be helpful to note Laie is owned by the Mormon Church and is a dry town but there are places to buy adult beverages right outside the town. Laie point is a 5 minute walk away with more amazing views that we visited a few times throughout the week.
The only issue we came across was that some of the furniture seemed to be on the verge of breaking so we were sure to avoid using it in case it was us that completely broke it (living room lounge chair/balcony chair). House also came with some body boards, and snorkel gear.
Laura was very professional, responsive and easy to work with. Overall my family had such an amazing time and I would stay here again and highly recommend this property to any future tenants looking to stay on the north shore. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home!

We had a group of 11 adults for our stay. I did a search for a perfect place and this sure was perfect. The lay out was very open and welcoming. We enjoy hanging out in the kitchen area and the lanai very much. We all love to eat and sipping our cocktails at the lanai every morning and enjoy that beautiful ocean view. What a refreshing way to start out the day. The rooms were very spacious and beds were comfortable. The location was just about 5 min walk to the beach and as well as to foodland. We also visited a Japanese temple, we hike the laie falls, try out the food trucks, and the shave ice stop.
Laura was very easy to communicated with. The whole process with checking in and checking out was easy. The house was very clean. I would definitely booked this place again if I ever come back with my family. Thank you for sharing your home with us!
