the beach was great just to relax on.

Had a wonderful stay at Betty's place. Comfortable, clean, great decor. Such a view to have with morning coffee. Sofa bed was very comfy for my adult son. Good place to launch from for various activities around the island that is more home like than hotel like. Very enjoyable stay.

This condo was like a home away from home. It had everything we needed for a relaxing and wonderful stay in Hawaii. The view was breathtaking. We enjoyed being able to swim at the beach right there in our backyard. There was construction going on but don’t let that deter you from booking this place. It was just what we had hoped it’d be!

My wife and i celebrated our ten year anniversary at Pat's place on Oahu. The location was perfect, i couldnt say enough about it. The beach is private and probably at least 1/4 mile long, the lawn is immaculate and quiet, the gym has free weights including an olympic bar bell and a great pull up bar (this was a big deal for us, usually the gym areas are just machines), the condo itself has cieling fans everywhere so the lack of central cooling was not as noticeable as i thought it would be. We could hear the construction during the day but it turned out to be fine. My only critique is the brightness of the master bedroom at night, and the heat in that room. To maintain a breeze we had to keep the window open, and since that opens to the outside entry way where the lights are always on, it was bright. If you close it, its still too bright and quite warm. We ended up covering the window with a sheet while keeping it partly open, and using ear plugs and eye masks, and with some added melatonin this worked well. Its 5 miles to the grocery store, there are a few small shops nearby, however the food trucks close between 4 and 5pm, which was suprising. Farther north we found everything we needed. The condo was well stocked with books and after a while we figured out the tv (use the tubi app to watch most things, it worked the best). We loved this location and would absolutely come again!

I have stayed at condos within this complex over the years, and this one has a perfect view of the ocean! I love the fact that it is quiet and away from the hustle and bustle of Honolulu. Betty was the perfect host! She gave EXCELLENT tips and directions to different points of interest in the area and around the island. The condo itself was great for a solo traveler like me. It was comfortable, and even came with items to take to the beach! I found the beach towels and chair to come in handy as I visited several beaches on the North Shore. Overall, I would definitely return to stay at this condo. Now I can see why I could barely get a booking! Thank you, Betty, for providing us travelers with a great place to call home, even for a short while! Blessings to you and yours!

The property is great, i want to visit again next year. Furthermore i want to see the property when the renovation is complete.

Views were beautiful. Condo itself a little outdated. Ocean breeze and ceiling fans helped a lot with no air conditioning. Had everything we needed.

Loved the private beach, quiet atmosphere, turtle sightings. The condo complex overall was undergoing renovations, which we knew in advance, and it was really minimally invasive. Pool access was quite limited. The individual condo was pleasant but could use a bit of updates. A keurig would be awesome because a French press is not my forte, and a carafe of coffee doesn’t allow for individual preferences. The only thing I would really want different is the beach chairs, they could use cleaning/updating. Would definitely come back here again.

My wife and I loved the location of this condo. Quiet location right on the beach. We had quick access to everything we needed and everywhere we wanted to go. I would surly stay here again.

We had a great vacation with friends who stayed in the same building. Other than the remodeling construction this was a very nice place to stay. We loved being on the upper east side of the island.

Really good value—that is, the entire facility has a wonderful location, right on the beach with decent snorkeling just steps away. But overall the place is rather “tired”—showing it’s age. And this is probably reflected in the price. We had a great stay.

We were very comfortable and we had everything we needed. It’s a good place , I recommend it.

Comfortable condo with a beautiful view.

This was a great place to stay as there are many beautiful beaches and sites on this side of the island and close to the north shore. The owner was very responsive with any needs and questions. Affordable place in a more remote location away from crowds and busy-Ness. The bedroom was hot but sleeping on the pull-out couch in the living room was very pleasant. The property is under construction but we were gone during the day and we're not bothered by it. Quiet I evenings and on weekends. Overall a great place!

We love the beach and the people at Pat’s. They will have some construction for the next year or so after that it may get hard to stay here because of price but we hope not.Lovely

We were seriously disappointed with the misleading description aabout the condition of the building. First off, the condo itself is very nice, spacious, clean, well appointed, and of course a great ocean view. The owner was great with communication, kind, and took care of some minor problems upon arrival, HOWEVER the host building is a construction zone nightmare. The entire front of the property is torn up with piles of construction materials, giving it a very gross & dirty feel, often stinking of sewage. The elevator was plywood & duct tape. The entire east end of the grounds was blocked with orange construction barriers, destroying any resort feel. Chunks of missing concrete, peeling paint & rust all over. I mainly booked this property for the uniqueness of an oceanside pool & guess what... the pool was closed the entire trip. I feel angered and misled about the lack of an honest description about the condition of the property as it currently is. When the building is finished, this would be a nice place to stay with a 4 star rating, but now, I'd stay away.

We were happy with condo beautiful view of beach and ocean. The only thing missing was some tea towels for drying dishes had to use paper towels. Only the 2 of us so we didn’t use the dish washer. Had trouble with wifi for the first couple days the wifi password you sent us did not work on my iPhone. The one from the modem worked but didn’t try it until day 3. Overall the place was excellent

Beautiful beach, most days we had it all to ourselves. The view from the balcony is fantastic. Bring snorkeling gear so you can see the turtles and tropical fish. If you are not an early riser, the roosters are happy to wake you up. Traffic can be a challenge so give yourself plenty of time to get where you need to be. A rental car is a necessity. Just a reminder, this unit does not have a/c, but does have ceiling fans and a beach breeze.

Failing sewage treatment made the front of the building reek while the drilling for a new system made days of a loud whining really fun. Oh, and did I mention the sand blasting of the building on the beach side of the building? Bad timing on our part. No access to pool or bbq area due to work above. We were left one roll of TP for a week and the info for the wi-if was wrong. all in all not great.

Property is as advertised, very clean, well equipped, terrific location. Highly recommend to anyone that will want to enjoy the real Hawaii!

Beautiful location and unit. Saw a sea turtle resting overnight and he was amazing. The condo is well appointed and comfortable with amazing views. The drive is very scenic and you don't mind the drive after being in the craziness of Waikiki. Sunrises 🌅 are well worth getting up early. Thank you Betty for sharing your beautiful home. Loved every minute of our time there ❤.

We had a very nice stay at this property. The only knock I would give is that there was construction all over the place on the property. Nothing the owner could control but it took away from the ambiance a bit. The pool was closed during the day during construction hours and the designated parking spot was sometimes difficult to back out of due to large construction trucks. Other than that, we enjoyed the place and our time on Oahu.

The property was what we expected. Right on the beach in a rural area of the island. The property was older and had significant maintenance repairs in progress, which was communicated to us in the listing. We spent most of our days touring the island so the construction noise didn't bother us. The semi-private beach where the property was located has sea turtles coming to rest before sunrise every, which we very much enjoyed. The unit kitchen facilities were outdated but clean, which we were perfectly happy with. The only negative thing about the trip was the toilet in the unit stopped working on our 3rd day there, and it did not get fixed until 4 days later. I notified the property manager several times over that time period but the toilet did not get fixed until I escalated it with VRBO. Once I did that, the toilet was fixed within an hour. The toilet issue seemed to be related to the ongoing maintenance of the building, which had not reached our unit yet(eg replacement of building plumbing drains). The maintenance schedule I saw said the work for our unit would be completed in the Fall of 2022, so hopefully future tenants won't come across the same issue. Other than the toilet issue, it was an enjoyable stay.

This side of Oahu is gorgeous - you'll experience Hawaii in a way that just doesn't match Waikiki. The view from the balcony was amazing. This condo allows you to feel like your in your home away from home.

We could not have been any more happier with our stay.. it was a perfect location, great communication with the host and the property manager. There were a few hiccups that were quickly resolved. We definitely would come back! Thank you to Larona for all she did to make it the best experience for us! Roxanna & Jason Stuart

Perfect location. Condo needs updating but it was perfect for our family.

Enjoyed the apartment and the surrounds. Had no problems with the property and felt good as there was security on site

This was truly one of my favorite rental experiences ever. The condo is an absolute gem. The layout is perfect with a large bedroom, washer / dryer, access to the small gym, pool, fully stocked kitchen, a closet full of beach items, spacious living room and stunning ocean views. It’s worth getting up early in the morning to see the sunrise over the ocean. Gorgeous, clean and swimmable beach. Betty’s communication was great. We appreciated the detailed emails with info on the check-in process, parking and suggestions for nearby restaurants / shopping, etc. I highly recommend this condo and plan to be back!
