About this house rental

Mango Haven is a very private designated historic home reminiscent of “Old Hawaii” in modern day Honolulu. The majestic mango tree is the heart of our home that welcomes guests with its large gracious canopy. It is our beach home which is ideal for us to slow down and enjoy the ocean. Born and raised in the islands we cherish Mango Haven and want to share with you our inviting and laid-back home - located on an uncrowded sandy stretch of beach.

The prolific mango tree bears an abundance of fruit. Generations have made mango chutney from these mangoes, and generations have also returned to enjoy their time at Mango Haven with family and friends. We take pride in the number of returning guests each year.

When Mango Haven was renamed to capture the essence of this historic property, we unfortunately lost all of our previous (all positive) reviews beginning in 2002 on this website. Yet guests were coming for generations before....before this website or the Internet!

Our home is a Haven - to spend time together with family and friends enjoying the beach, sharing meals and relaxing from your day in the sun. The epic sunrises seem to make coffee taste better! At the end of the day, enjoy the sunset skies or sit under the stars at night beneath the swaying palms hearing the sound of the water lapping on the shore.

This well maintained beach house was once a fishing cottage in the 1930’s. We take pride in preserving the old charm while keeping it updated with modern conveniences of WiFi, Cable TV, Modern Appliances and Air Conditioning.

The beach views are the focal point of the spacious living room, dining room, screened in lanai and two master suites. The master suites each have full bathrooms and the third bedroom has an attached ½ bath. Our private outdoor shower can’t be beat after a day in the ocean and is enjoyed all year round.

Mango Haven is over 2200 square feet with room for all to gather as well as room for privacy. The large enclosed lanai that opens toward the beach is our most popular room in the home. Here is where we spend time enjoying the view of the ocean, dining, taking naps on the hiki'es (day beds), playing ping pong, or reading a book. Something for everyone is awaiting you at Mango Haven.

The yard is planted with flowering plants and fruit trees. Enjoy the fragrant Plumeria, Stephanotis, Orchids and Ginger when they are in bloom. If you are here when the bananas ripen or during Mango season - ENJOY the bounty of fruit!

This island beach house is centrally located with easy access to major island attractions. 10 minute beach stroll to Waialae Country Club and the Kahala Hotel. Great location for attending the Sony Open. The home is also located along the Honolulu Marathon route - ideal location for participants or to cheer your favorite runner on! Haunama Bay, Koko Head Crater, the Blow Hole, Sandy Beach, Pearl Harbor, the University of Hawaii (the home is very popular during graduation weekend so book early!), The Hawaii Convention Center, Ala Moana Shopping Center, Bishop Museum, Iolani Palace & Diamond Head are easy to get to from our central location.

Come enjoy Mango Haven and make new memories in our charming home.

Everything about the stay at Mango Haven was incredible. The prompt, kind, and accommodating communications were so appreciated. The home is fantastic, obviously the views and location are unparalleled, and the amenities in the home are plentiful. A quick trip to a grocery store and you are ready to start your stay! We were a family of 6, 3 adult couples and the home felt spacious, private, and just so perfect for our daughter’s college graduation week here on the island. Sirkka is just the sweetest caretaker for the beautiful property and home. Knowing she is available by text or phone call gives such peace of mind, and her warmth is everything Aloha and truly wrapped up our stay at Mango Haven. We are very grateful to have had the opportunity to make such lifelong memories in this home, Mahalo.

We loved staying at Mango Haven - the location (right on the water!), the amazing mango tree (fresh mangos every day!), the hang-out areas (ping pong, boogie boards, lounge chairs!), the friendly & prompt communication. It very comfortably fit our group of 6. The kitchen had plenty of supplies. The only down side was that you could hear the traffic from the main road, since you are right off of it, but that just comes with the location. We would definitely stay here again.

If you are looking for a 100 year old authentic Hawaiian bungalow on the beach close to Honolulu and Waikiki, this is the place for you. The area is not good for swimming, but you can walk down the beach 15 minutes in either direction and the water is deeper. There are 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. Two of the bedrooms have full ocean views. The kitchen is authentic except for the solid stone counter tops. Beautiful place to relax and get great pictures. I would definitely recommend it. The property manager and caretaker quickly addressed any concern or issues that arose and the mango tree was giving us fresh mangos everyday.

First off the house is a beautiful and well-maintained and preserved historic home with a large property and perfect beachfront backyard. Mango Haven is located off a main busy road close to shopping malls grocery stores and everything you would need. Once you are in the house it feels like you are miles away. Upon arrival, Sirrka was on site to greet us and and answer any questions we had. The property manager Susu was very accommodating to all of our requests. Overall this property was everything I expected and more. I will definitely be using this property on my future trips.

A relaxing stay

My family and I had a lovely stay together at Mango Haven. The three separate bedrooms were comfortable for our growing family of 7 adults, 1 toddler, and 1 infant. Each morning we would sit out back and enjoy coffee together looking out onto the water. We would also enjoy scoping out the front yard for mangos that had dropped. We were able to get a few before the birds or bugs got to them and they were so much more delicious than the store-bought mangoes or even mangoes that we bought at the farmers market. The location of the house is quite convenient to Honolulu. We also made easy trips to Lanikai/Kailua, Waimanalo, Dole Plantation, and the North Shore area. The house also had a propane grill that we were able to use to have a delightful Memorial Day BBQ. Susu and Sirkka were wonderful hosts. An issue with one of the A/C units came up and was very swiftly and appropriately addressed. As for negatives, there were only two that were minor: a bit of road traffic noise in the front yard as the house is located off of a busy road and the beach, which was quite small even at low tide and a little painful to walk on without shoes due to various ocean debris. It is not a swimming beach. The water is shallow for several hundred feet off shore, however this made for interesting people watching as some people would wade out into the water and fish. Both of these points are certainly out of control of the property owners/managers and so would never be expected to be addressed, but future renters may want to be aware. Other points to note: the kitchen is a bit dated, but well-equipped; the washer/dryer is on the property, but not inside the main house; A/C in the common room and bedroom with the queen bed were effective, however the king bedrooms still seemed a bit hot (during the day) even with A/C; the kitchen is without A/C, but does have a ceiling fan and can get warm when cooking. Overall, it was a lovely house for our purposes and I would recommend it to other families looking for quality relaxation time together in beautiful Hawaii.

A beautiful cozy home full of olden day charm, history and romance yet very clean and spacious with modern day conveniences. All the rooms are large and furnishings were very comfortable. It's away from the "maddening crowd" and noise yet conveniently located and close to all the attractions, restaurants and stores. You can even walk on the beach from the house to the Kahala Hilton beach side buffet for great meals. We enjoyed a lot of what the house had to offer and had an amazing stay. The view of sunrise and sunset from the house is gorgeous and it was nice to see and talk to people out on the reef fishing. My five year old son had a great time playing on the beach everyday; catching fish, chasing sand crabs, exploring the reef, collecting shells, and building sand castles. The outdoor shower with hot and cold water was wonderful and appreciated by everyone. It was a perfect setting for three generations of family to bond and enjoy each other. The property manager and care taker were very accommodating and helpful in everyway. We hope to be able to return to this property. We highly recommend this property to everyone.
