The pictures do not convey the real beauty and uniqueness of this home and beautifully landscaped yard. The 5 bedrooms comfortably accommodated the 10 in our family. Pupukea is just where we wanted to be on the North Shore. The gated home is in a quiet residential area and was the perfect place to wake up to the birds and sunrise. The home was equipped with everything we needed to get started and enjoy our stay. We would love to return!

This house is so much more than what the pictures show. This house is so spacious and beautiful. Alix was an amazing host, greeted us when we arrived and very prompt with any questions we had. I would recommend any family wanting to stay in the north shore to stay here.

Great property!

We stayed at the house for a week with 10 extended family members - grand parent, two couples and five tween/teen kids - and had a fantastic stay. We loved the sounds of birdsong at dawn, the relaxing views of the lush vegetation and ocean from the property. The house was a nice size for our group, plenty of options to gather together and also to be apart. Kitchen had everything we needed for making meals. Lots of spaces to relax outside, and of course the pool was great. Alix was very accommodating when we had questions, and also provided all kinds of beach paraphernalia for our trips elsewhere. Would love to come back.

House was perfect and the location amazing. The host was very nice and accommodating. Very clear instructions and provided local information. Lots of beach toys to use and lovely pool.

We absolutely loved our stay - the property was well kept, clean, and had everything we could possibly need. Our 5YO granddaughter repeatedly asked if we could stay there forever! Loved the pool and the sunsets were spectacular. Highly recommend! Alix was a joy as our host!

This property was great for our family Christmas. There were 2 separate living spaces and a large kitchen for spreading out. Alix decorated the main living areas and out front with Christmas lights and cute decorations and poinsettias which made it festive. She was always available to help with a question or problem. And there were several blue-tooth speakers available for music at the pool. Overall, the description of the property is accurate with lovely, comfortable furnishings, and we had everything we needed for our stay, with one exception: to include "A/C" in the amenities is a bit of an overstatement, however. As mentioned by another vacationer in an earlier review, there is only a small window unit in one bedroom. But, Alix does supply many, many floor fans and every room has a ceiling fan. I suspect it was unseasonably warm when we were there and the bedrooms on the second floor have east-west exposures so they got rather warm in the afternoon. The fans help keep the air moving. The views of the ocean and mountain range were serene and the sunsets (and moonsets) were great. Feral chickens and roosters run rampant on the Islands and this neighborhood is no exception. While, during the day the group had fun counting all the birds we ran into, the resident fowl were in a different time zone commenced their serenades at 1:00 or 2:00 in the morning. We all felt safe and the neighborhood was quiet. The grocery store was very convenient for quick trips and the beaches were close-by. The pool was a great gathering spot for the family late afternoon, before the evening activities began. AND, my daughter-in-law was thrilled with the air-fryer, (which is her go-to appliance these days), and using it when possible helped to keep the kitchen from overheating with oven use.

Absolutely beautiful home! Views of the Ocean, beautifully landscaped property, quite, private and overall wonderful place to stay. Alix was very attentive and was helpful with any questions we had during our stay. The house was just as it was pictured. Large enough for everyone to have their own bedroom. We never felt cramped. Large patio area's to be outside and the private pool was a huge bonus with kids. Highly recommend this vacation spot. We are planning a return visit already.

The house is very spacious and Alix was very helpful and accommodating. We had seven people, including two teens, and there was plenty of room to not get in each others way. Although the downstairs bedroom is the only one with AC, the louvred windows kept the house at a great temperature with the trade breezes. The pool is also kept at a comfortable temperature and there is plenty of outdoor space. It's a great home. The local Foodland is a five minute drive away.

We had the loveliest time in Pupukea, the accommodation was just as described, it was spacious, serene, and a wonderful place to spend time playing games, cooking, and relaxing with family.

This house is amazing- so beautiful and well cared for! The pool is the perfect temperature, everything about it was perfect and made for the most magical Hawaii experience I could hope for! The location is amazing- down the street from Foodland and the food trucks, short drive to Waimea Bay. Plenty of food, beach, and hiking very nearby but also for those who are feeling like taking it easy the pool and house are also great to relax in. Alix was super accommodating and gracious as well- all in all amazing experience!! Couldn't have asked for more

The property was excellent. My only (and significant, in my opinion) complaint is that there was no air conditioning. The listing states that there is A/C, however the only A/C is in the small bedroom downstairs and is a window unit for that room only. I felt mislead by that, as the house was humid, and my children had trouble sleeping because of the heat. Other than that, the house is in an excellent location, is clean and very well kept, and is gorgeous! Lots of space for my party.

Very much enjoyed our stay. The home was clean, spacious and offered everything we needed. The pool was great for the kids.

This is such a gorgeous house and property, somehow even better than the photos! Alix has thought of virtually every comfort that you could need, from cookware and dishes to beach gear. It was quiet and Alix was great about answering any questions we had.

Alix is wonderful! The house is beautiful and feels like home away from home. Will definitely stay again.

Property was beautiful and we had a good time. We were there for a wedding at Turtle Bay. It was close to Turtle Bay and we were pleased.

Just loved staying here. Large spacious beautiful home with a beautiful pool. The pool was nice for days we didn’t go to the beach. Large spacious kitchen with all the things you need to cook a great meal and the convenience of a grocery store just down the road. Great location if you want to be at the north shore. Would definitely do it again. Alex our friend was a super host.

This property could not have possibly been more perfect!!! The views from the kitchen and upstairs master bed/bath were just beautiful. The house was clean. Everything we could have possibly needed to cook or bake was there!! We look forward to coming back to Oahu and staying there again!! Alix was wonderful. Always a quick response anytime I texted. We made some beautiful memories!!! Mahalo nui❤️❤️❤️

Beginning to end the property and hostess were far beyond our expectations. The home and it's location was beautiful, removed enough to be secluded and private, close enough for quick and easy access. Having the grocery store at the bottom of the road was extremely convenient. We had a party of 9 and the house was plenty big for all of us, you never felt crowded. The Hostess (Alix) was great, my wife and I were very impressed and happy with all of our interactions with her. You will not go wrong with this home and hostess, they are the perfect Hawaiian experience!

We looked forward to this vacation for over a year and we were NOT disappointed in any way!! The home is beautiful and looks just like the pictures, Alexis was kind and accommodating, the property and neighborhood was quiet,peaceful, close to everything and just what we wanted! Thank you for making your home available - we hope to stay again in the future!

Home is beautiful and easily accommodates a large family quite comfortably. Love north shore living and this home did not disappoint. The owner, Alix, is extremely attentive and approachable for any issues that may arise. Would absolutely stay here again!

Overall, it was a great experience. The property is beautiful and the house was well stocked. We had a small issue as the TV in the master bedroom did not work and when we notified Alex the second day there, we expected to hear about a fix to this problem, but we never did hear back from her.

Perfect property for family and kids. My kids loved the pool. Convenient to North Shore locations.

This home is beautiful! Great location to go and do thing just about anywhere on the north shore. Food trucks 5 minutes away. Kids loved the pool and loved in there for the week we were there. Alix is wonderful and extremely helpful and communicative!

The property itself was beautiful and had all the household items needed during our stay. However, if you wanted to awaken to the sounds of roosters crowing day and night, neighborhood dogs running wild and killing chickens in front of your small grandchildren, finding out that the reason the property owner asked us to lie on our state form so that the state of Hawaii would not know that this house is not zoned for legal rental, on-site construction going on with the lovely sounds of banging hammers, saws, loud music and nosey neighbors, then this is the place for you .

Alix was amazing. She contacted me and kept me in the loop of everything we needed for our trip. The house was gorgeous! The pool was super nice. The views from the upstairs were gorgeous. Even though it rained some, hanging out in the gigantic house was perfect. Definitely big enough for more than the 7 of us. Thank you again Alix. If we ever make it back we'll come to this house. Thanks

Our family absolutely loved this home. It was perfect for us. We were celebrating our son’s wedding a few miles away. We’ll be back🌺Our host was great. Thank you..

Perfect for our family vacation, fit all three of our families comfortably! The pool was a blessing during our stay because the waves were too big for the kids. Alix was great to work with - excellent host!

This beautiful house and 2 acre property with pool was perfect for our family Thanksgiving week on the north shore. Alix was gracious enough to meet us at the front door even though it was getting dark, and she introduced us to this truly magical location. The house is spacious and very well appointed, and we had all had the space to relax and unwind. The big kitchen had all we needed to cook big nightly dinners to eat on the veranda and enjoy spectacular sunsets from the west facing windows and porches. The pool was refreshing and so beautifully designed, and the sense of peace and grandeur of the entire property made the trip unforgettable. Highly recommended!

Great place

Grounds are beautiful the pool was awesome. The furniture needs some upgrading. Air conditioning only in one bedroom.

We absolutely loved staying at this home for 9 nights! Alix was so helpful and responsive. The pictures of the home don’t do it justice! We had plenty of space to spread out as there were 7 of us and 3 separate immediate families. We loved being able to make dinner at the house and eat outside under the patio. The house is well stocked with cooking utensils/ etc, linens, beach fun accessories and beach towels. We loved having a full sized washer and dryer to use as well! The house is in the heart of The North Shore and is 5 minutes from a well stocked grocery store. The house itself is in a very peaceful neighborhood and we quickly realized that waking up to the call of chickens was part of the charm! The pool was lovely and so convenient! We didn’t have a good amount of trade winds during the 9 nights we were there so it got hot in the house very fast even with all of the provided fans on and windows/ doors open. I would definitely suggest window air conditioner units in the bedroom for some better sleeping conditions! The owner also had some construction going on during 3 of the days of our stay on her adjoining property which made it a little difficult to relax and enjoy the amenities of the home. Overall, We would highly recommend this home! It was really fantastic! Thank you for having us!
