We really enjoyed our stay at this cozy home. We enjoyed all of our meals on the lanai with an excellent view of the ocean. Sunsets are stunning and we loved the direct access to the beach for evening strolls. Definitely recommend!

We stayed a week, myself and two teen granddaughters. Lovely little house on the beach. The view was great and we could walk to a sandy area for swimming and sun bathing. Wish there were stairs down to shore. It was a climb over some rocks but all worked ok. We loved it!

Beautiful ocean view, directly on the water. Place was updated and spotless! Truly enjoyed our stay. Will rent it again when we we return.

Owners sent a detailed email letting us know how to get to the property and once we arrived, everything was just as described and looked online. I loved sitting out on the back porch and listening to the water early in the mornings! Would definitely stay here again!

We were very happy with the property! Amazing view! Very quiet! Perfect paradise!!! They had everything we needed!! The North Shore is the best to stay at! We hope to go back one day and would stay again at this property if available!!

If you're looking for just the basics with an ocean view - this fits the bill. You pull off the highway into the driveway which is a challenge sometimes. North shore was Great.

Close to amenities and beautiful view.

My family and I had a wonderful experience with this property. Everything was as advertised and could not have gone more smoothly. Will plan to return as soon as possible.

Amid COVID-19 crisis, power outage, etc. it was enjoyable place to stay. One suggestion is more toilet paper inventory at the house, but should not be major problem in normal time. Mahalo :)

We loved the house and it’s location!! The views were amazing. We had an issue with dishes and silverware being dirty. The microwave was also not clean. Contacted the owners and they were very gracious and explained the problem. This issue was resolved. The overall experience was amazing! I would definitely recommend this property to anyone. If you want a great Hawaiian get away rent this property!!

This is a very nice house in an amazing location... we just could not get enough of sitting on the terrace and enjoying the beach front... the house has also all the amenities and is very comfortable... There is a foodland and many food trucks close by which makes it very easy to get good meals without a long drive.

All went smooth from start to finish. Perfect location. To watch the waves or drive down the road to watch even bigger waves and surfing. The house is very near the main road, so constant traffic all day and night might be a bit noisy for light sleepers. I bring earplugs when I travel so all good for me. Very peaceful otherwise to sit in backyard or on the porch. We really enjoyed our stay with the house in such great proximity to north shore restaurants, shopping and scenery.

The property is perfect for staying on the North Shore. I went to see the PipeMaster and house is located between the contest and Turtle Bay- you will end up stopping over there. A gas station is near. The house it self has everything you would need and more. The owners were easy to work with and contact. I would 100% go back!!!

House is exactly as described. Great north shore location, quiet, close to good dining, and an excellent view! Will definitely stay again next time I visit the north shore.

I recently rented this vacation home for a week stay in Haleiwa and I can’t recommend it enough. Well-kept, comfortable and in a great location, you’re minutes away from beaches, food trucks and scenic views. This place is exactly what you’re looking for if you want to be away from the hectic pace of Waikiki but still live the island life. Absolutely a perfect place! Mahalo!

We has a wonderful time on Oahu and our stay at this house was no exception. Right down the road, Kawela Bay is a beautiful spot for sunbathing, snorkeling, and spotting sea turtles. Loved the convenience to restaurants, popular North Shore spots, and the relative privacy of the home compared to other spots on the island. It is a immaculate, beautiful home! We saw sunsets and rainbows from the front porch. Hope we can come back on day.

We enjoyed the days in this pretty house very much. We were two adults and two children, and the size of the house was perfect. Beautiful location, but for swimming in the sea you have to walk along the beach.

This a great place to stay right in the water. Has everything you need

Everything about the home was wonderful and enjoyed completely until the last day when our rental car got broken into at the parking area. We are so thankful for the people staying next door who came to tell us. They also informed us that the previous people that stayed in their unit got their bags stolen too. According to the officer and rental car manager, this time of year, theft and break in rates are high. Please make sure to not leave anything in the car to tempt thieves!

My family of 3, my husband, me and our 10 year old daughter, enjoyed out stay here very much. She could do her gymnastics out on the grass while we sat and watched the sun set. You could hear the waves all day and night, what a glorious sound. A perfect place if you like to relax. We recommend the Climb Works Zip line close by, if you like that kind of thing. It was the best part of the trip beside having a glass of wine on the deck and watching the sunset. We did bring games, but they do have a nice collection there at the house too.

House was immaculate! Really appreciated how clean and well stocked everything was. Nice to be off the beaten path and away from the chaos and traffic down the road near Sunset Beach - we had easy access to stores and food nearby. Air Conditioning was a huge plus! Views were amazing - saw an amazing sunset sitting on the Lanai - WOW!

This 2 bedroom is great for a small group. The house smelled fresh and was as clean as it could be. It was well appointed and had a great view from everywhere in the ocean side of the house and the lanai was very large. The view was Spectacular, we saw breaching whales and turtles everyday. The snorkeling was accessible next to the property and tide pooling was everywhere in this area. Close to all the surfing beaches and great restaurants in the North Shore. We will be back.

Great stay! We enjoyed everything. Most beautiful location if you’re looking for a place on the north shore! The hosts make the stay as convenient and easy as possible. Loved it!

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed the property, right on a secluded beach and across the street from a horse ranch. The covered deck and sunsets were amazing.

Very beautiful! Property was exactly as described. We were able to relax on the lanai and listen to the ocean waves. Loved being able to walk along the beach. Awesome sunsets! Would highly recommend!

As we entered the house for the first time and walked out on the lanai, a humpback whale came straight up completely out of the water! What a welcoming! We saw blows and breaching all week. Although in the winter the waters are not as calm for snorkeling the trade off was worth it. I prepare meals myself using local fresh fish and the amazing tropical fruits. There is everything you need for cooking and a relaxing vacation. Close to everything you need. The owners describe the property very accurately and there are no surprises. You won’t be disappointed!

Incredible stay at Kawela Kai In February. Great communication with the owners. Perfect location. We watched so many whales from the awesome lanai. We enjoyed the lanai in all the weather. Perfect for 2. Kitchen was well supplied. Nice Refrig. Very Clean with beautiful quilts and pictures. Great WiFi. Appreciated the AC immensely. Trying to get down the steps to the beach was scary for me. My friend was like a goat going up and down. Easier to get up the boulders than down. We had such a wonderful time. It was so hard to leave! Don’t hesitate to rent this house! We hope to return next year! Thank you!

Very comfortable clean cottage, lovely sunsets, if you feel like you want to enjoy viewing the ocean all by yourself, this is the place!

My daughters and I stayed at this great beach house in May. Lenae and Lori were easy to work with and responsive. We loved the gorgeous views of the ocean! The house was very clean and the yard was manicured. We enjoyed the entertainment of the two chicken families that would daily cross the yard by the back deck. We have backyard chickens so it was fun to watch the chicken mamas with their babies! It was a great location to explore the North Shore, and Haleiwa town and beaches all were in easy driving distance. We had fun walking down to the beach below and walked it both directions. We spent time watching the fish and crabs in the tide pools. We had no trouble keeping cool and loved listening and watching the ocean waves! I would highly recommend this place and definitely would stay again!

We had a fantastic stay. Lenae and Lori were thoroughly responsive and helpful both before and during our time on the North Shore. The house fit our family of 4 just fine - and we used it mainly just to rest after a long day of adventure or as our connection to the rocky beach below the house. Updated kitchen is wonderful, even if cooking gear is what you'd expect for a rental beach property. We appreciated being able to use beach equipment stored at the house, and the use of laundry facilities really came in handy. A friendly, happy, welcoming spot.

My son and I stayed at this fantastic beach front home for 12 days. This beach home is beautiful, clean and comfortable. This home is so clean, and decorated island style. I enjoyed beach combing every day ( the beach front is so beautiful with easy access) It is a perfect location, next to pristine beaches, shopping and a short drive to Honolulu (if you like the big city). My son and I love the slower paced life, Kahuku and Haleiwa were our personal favorite little towns. I highly recommend this vacation home! I would return in a heartbeat! Gina and Colin

Lenae and Lori are wonderful to deal with. They provided detailed instructions on the rental and info about the area the rental is located. The home is well maintained and very clean. This was my 3rd trip to the north shore of Oahu and this by far my favorite. Frankly i don't even think the pictures do this perfectly located rental justice. We watched whales in the am as we ate breakfast on the lanai, that overlooks the picture perfect pacific ocean. You will just be a few miles away from the best beaches of the north shore. Sunset beach is the closest and when the surf is calm you can enjoy a nice day at the beach in the water or just walking down the 7 mile miracle which is a stretch of unbelievable beaches and during the winter world famous surf breaks. You can spend your days swimming, snorkeling, surfing or going for a hike to a waterfall. Or just relax and soak up the sun! I would recommend this property to family or friends as long as they aren't trying to book it when I'm going back. I will most certainly rent this property again.
