What a place, what a location. With a great spacious house at your disposal, including outdoor living space, enough lawn for the kids to play on and exhaust themselves, and the beautiful sandy beach just thru the residence back gate, what more can anyone ask for, apart from perhaps an even longer vacation . . .

Absolutely fabulous! Our family had the most wonderful vacation at Hale Malina on the North Shore. The house was even more beautiful than in the pictures. We enjoyed the comfortable space for our group of five adults and four grandkids. Quality family time was spent on the well-appointed and large porch across the back of the house. There was lots of room for patio meals around a large table while we watched the sunsets. The two smaller porches off of the bedrooms provided quiet spots to relax. The beach was pristine and fairly quiet Monta made sure that we had everything necessary to make our stay comfortable and was available by text at all times. She even bought some new boogie boards for the kids to use as she noticed that the ones at the house were fairly old Ted’s bakery was a highlight for the kids – sometimes for donuts and cinnamon buns and other times for breakfast. It is just a ten-minute walk down the road. The food trucks and a Foodland are a short drive from the house. This was a very special vacation for our family. The house and location exceeded our expectations. It was a truly memorable vacation in paradise. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home.

The north shore experience was perfect. My family enjoyed a special occasion. The beach was awesome for the kids. The sunset - unforgettable. The house was ideal!

This property was the perfect choice for our family. Gina and Monta were spectacular communicators and Monta was accommodating and a pleasure to meet. The house exceeded our expectations and, while beautifully decorated and spacious, truly felt "homey" and comfortable. The beach felt private which we loved. The accommodations as far as just having all the necessities and general basics from towels to soaps to detergents to paper towels to aluminum foil to cling wrap ready and covered for the entire stay were the best we have ever experienced. We thank you for sharing your home with us and for the memories made!

We had a great stay! We were two families of 4 and the house accomodated us perfectly! The view and location are incredible! Really good surf out front (Velzy Land) and several beaches at walking distance! We loved having breakfast in the deck watching the kids surf! The rooms and living area were extremelly inviting. There is a wonderful breeze at night, so no one missed the ac, although we are all used to it. The house has all of the desired beach accessories (towels, umbrellas, chairs etc..) and home appliances. Monta and Gina were wonderful and very accesible when we needed. I highly recommend it! We will be back for sure!

Loved every square inch, House tour is perfect for what is to be expected, exceptional acomodations!

This house was fabulous in every way! Location was excellent with a small yard between the house and the beach that was a good place for young children,. it was clean and very comfortable with well equipped kitchen, outdoor grill, covered outdoor space, good quality linens and towels.

Enjoyed ourselves very much! This house is ideal for enjoying Hawaii and the North Shore!!

This was definitely the most perfect North Shore house. We had the most wonderful time in North Shore end of August. There was still a lot of people vacationing and plenty of tourist in North Shore, the other beaches were still pretty packed. But the beach behind the house was pretty empty and really nice. We had a lot of privacy away from all the crowd. We didn't get to meet Monta bc we arrived a little later than anticipated but she texted and checked up via text to make sure we had everything we needed. The house was lit and all windows open when we arrived so it was a very welcoming arrival. We would definitely stay here again.

Such a treat to vacation at this FABULOUS home in a gated community. We are Hawaii residents who live an hour away and it was a short drive to paradise. Oceanfront location was so convenient for our families with kids. We fished, dove, swam and built sand castles all day! In the evening we retired to the balcony where we sipped cocktails and watched the sunset. The kids enjoyed playing sports on the spacious and lush lawn and enjoyed smores from the gas fire pit on property. The home was super clean-perfect decor really contributed to the ambiance. The kids had slumber parties in the spacious living room and enjoyed the bunk beds in the bedrooms too. The house felt so safe so we kept the windows open and slept with the warm breeze all night long. Can't wait to go back. Would recommend to everyone!

This is our fifth time back to this same vacation rental and our family always looks forward to it. We live on the island and have stayed in many beautiful places but this North Shore getaway has been our favorite and one we continue to return to. The beach house is located in a safe kid friendly gated community yet the house and property is so spacious you feel very private and secluded. The house itself is completely gated with a large gate to enter the driveway and one to access the beach. When you first enter the front door to the open floor plan you are captivated by the aqua blue ocean views along the entire living area. You can cook in the spacious kitchen, grill outside, sit in the living room, dine on the patio or dining table all together while admiring the beach, enjoying sunsets and watching the surfers in the distance. The open floor plan also allows for the kids to play safely on the huge lawn or patio outside while you are in the house prepping meals or having a glass of wine on the large covered deck. The master bedroom downstairs near the kids bunk bed rooms allow for parents to be near young children or the master suite upstairs gives you the honeymoon retreat with a private balcony, large soaking tub and huge bathroom. Our kids love the room with all the bunk beds and trundle beds. This is one of the hottest times of the year in Hawaii but the house stays cool with ceiling fans and the natural cross breezes that flow from the well ventilated house. Because of the safe neighborhood, we felt comfortable leaving the windows open at all times. Gina keeps the house extremely clean and well equipped for any vacationers needs. You can even find all the practical supplies like flashlights for crab hunting at night, extra fans, and beach umbrellas. Our family enjoyed watching the perfect sunsets, looking for beach glass and shells, swimming and diving in the ocean right in front of property, and playing soccer on the huge lawn. At night we took the kids on sand crab hunts then lit the gas tiki torches and fire pit to make smores, enjoy stories and gaze at the stars. Foodland (a grocery store) is just minutes away along with several other must see spots on the North Shore. However, we enjoy the house so much we choose to just remain at the property, kick back and relax. I usually do not write reviews but this vacation rental was worthy of one!

We had a fabulous time. The house was beautiful and clean. No Bugs!!! the beach was amazing with no real waves during the summer. Great snorkeling. The owner and manager were wonderful and very helpful. They answered all our questions. Our stay was incredible and we would definitely go back!

Stayed here with two families. Beach access was easy and great for everyone. House is well furnished and we had a very comfortable stay.
