About this house rental

Please no party or event inquiries.
As you drive onto the property of this Historic Home, built in 1937 by Charles W. Dickey and recently restored, you are greeted by your own private park. Native Kukui and Ulu trees rustle in the cool trade wind breezes. Fruit trees such as mango, lime, avocado and banana trees blossom. As you look across the large sprawling yard the first thing that catches your eye is the crystal blue waters of the Pacific Ocean. Walk through the breezeway doors feel the refreshing trade winds blow and marvel at the views of the true Hawaii. As you continue onto the oceanfront lanai sitting a top a white sandy beach the smells, sights, and sounds of the ocean instantly take all your worries away.
This spectacular home is split into two main areas connected by a breezeway. On one side are private and quiet air conditioned bedrooms, full baths and amenities to accommodate our guests. The other side is open Hawaii living at its finest. Experience true indoor outdoor living. Push open the large doors and bring all the beauty of the outside into the living room and dining rooms. Period appropriate furnishings invite you to lounge and relax and absorb all the beauty that Hawaii has to offer. The living room has 20 ft plus vaulted ceilings and a fireplace set in a coral wall. Rich Koa and Mahogany woods encase and embellish the lines of this classic home. Original stamped and stained cement floors run throughout the home. There is an open and airy modern kitchen with seating for 8 around island, laundry and powder bath.
There is a full bathroom with changing room off the breezeway prior to entering the bedroom wing of the home. The bedroom wing is 3 large private suites each with its own full bathroom. They are separated from the main living area of the home and make for a quiet and relaxing sleep.

Enjoy a refreshing snorkel and you can see turtles , fish and find some great shells.

From the location to the spacious layout and impeccable interior design this property is perfect. If you're looking for a taste of old Hawaii with all of the modern amenities then look no further. Situated in a quiet enclave at the base of Diamond Head, the proprty is just a short stroll from Waikiki. Our hosts were generous and gracious and always quick to respond if we needed anything. We could not have asked for a better experience! Highly recommended.

Its a a spacious, beautifully designed and comfortable oceanfront home in the perfect location below Diamond Head. It is set on a huge lot that is landscaped and very well maintained. There is a large, modern and perfectly provisioned kitchen, three large bedrooms each with large closets and full bathrooms. The bedrooms are separated from the kitchen and living room by a fine breezeway where you can relax and watch the surfing and boats and ships from the shade. The owners are responsive and friendly and respect your privacy. A very memorable experience that brought a lot of happiness to us and our friends.

If anyone has been thinking about staying at this beautiful, historic home, please do not hesitate. You will not be disappointed. It took me several minutes when Maggie was showing me around, to pick my jaw up off the floor at the amazing layout, (hard to imagine but beyond the photos) breathtaking views of the ocean and beautiful historic architecture. Close to Waikiki, Zoo and Aquarium as well as Diamond Head, this retreat is fantastic. We were a group of friends who found ourselves drawn to being present for every sunset with cocktails (of course) and watching "Ocean TV" the surfers, fishermen, swimmers, SUPs, snorkelers, those hydrofoil things, it was all mesmerizing. The kitchen lacked nothing. The fact that there are 4.5 bathrooms plus outdoor showers is a bonus. AC in the living quarters made sleeping very comfortable and pleasant. Maggie and Tim are both lovely and gracious. As I write this it is 18 degrees in Seattle. Needless to say, we would like to return soon! Maholo.

Staying at Tim & Maggie’s place was truly like staying in paradise. The pictures online do not do the property justice. Everything was very clean, spacious and perfectly laid out. The kitchen is much bigger than it looks. They had every possible appliance, accessory, or utensil needed for cooking and eating (even plastic plates and cups for the kids!). There were also lots of outdoor accessories for any type of activity one’s heart desires, as well as some indoor games in case of rain. Tim & Maggie were also very responsive if we needed anything during our stay. We will definitely be going back. Thank you again for letting us stay at your place!
