We loved our stay at this home. It was exactly as described. It wasn’t really close to any main attraction but that’s the reason we chose it. I would highly suggest just taking a short drive or walk over to the Akis beach where you will find turtles. I also suggestion mountain magic shaved ice down the road. This will be our 3rd trip to the islands and it was the best shaved ice we have had.

Our stay was in January for 7 nights . Married couple with our adult 22 yr old daughter.
Reyna, our contact host, was extremely helpful answering our questions prior to booking and during our stay. The property was represented accurately. Woke and went to sleep to the sound of crashing waves on the beach! Surf was big while we were there and may not be ideal for very small children to swim this time of year at this beach specifically, but, there were times when it was calm and flat enough for paddle boarding and swimming as well. Two life guards on duty everyday on North end of Makaha Beach.
You have private beach front access and fabulous sunsets at this property. Quiet. Remote, in that it is approximately 50 minutes from Honolulu. We felt safe . Hawaiian neighbors and beach walkers were friendly.
Shout out to LET'S SURF HI. Recommended by local resident . If planning to take surf lesson, check them out.
We enjoyed a beautiful drive to the East side of the island for a quaint beach town excursion in Kailua Bay area (calm turquoise water here) after Lanikai Pillbox hike. The North Shore, Waikiki, Pearl Harbor all easily accessed and it was so nice to come back to this relaxing beachfront property.
Hope to visit Oahu again!

10 out of 10! This is the most beautiful treasure on Oahu. Reyna was fabulous in communicating directions for everything. The house was perfect and the backyard was a post card! We've stayed on North Shore, Waikiki and other places in Hawaii. This was by far our favorite.

We came for a long weekend (Thursday - Monday) and wanted to stay away from the main tourist areas. Makaha is very chill and quiet. We woke up every morning to the waves crashing on the beach and the surfers. It was so relaxing - and there were very few people around. The house itself had the best view around and was very clean and well appointed. Everyone was super friendly. My husband did not want to leave. 😊 For families with teenagers, I would suggest a mix of staying here with a day or two in Waikiki (which our 16-year-old preferred as there is more shopping and restaurants) or the Ko’Alina resort area. Ko’Alina lagoons are an easy drive from the house, and were a favorite. It’s also an easy day trip to the Waimae Valley and the north shore. Good home base if you prefer things a little more off the beaten path.

Reyna, the owner of this property, has clearly invested in interior upgrades to ensure the comfort of her guests. The home was well-stocked, and she promptly responded to all questions. The house was spotless and smelled wonderful upon arrival. The views from the backyard and walking access to the neighboring beach made the drive well worth it.
Our stay and sense of security in the community were somewhat impacted by the unexpected homeless encampments that span most of the public beaches throughout Waianae. However, this is not an issue that the homeowner can single-handedly solve.

I would fully recommend this property to anyone. Cozy gem with wonderful beach at your footsteps. Host was always quick to respond to any questions we had. If your looking to be off the beaten path this is it. Already looking ahead to staying again. Two thumbs up!!

We had an absolute amazing stay in this home! Leading up to our stay Reyna was amazing answering questions etc. When we arrived we were so happy with the house and the beach. We sat out every morning and had coffee and the few people who came by were neighbors and they were so friendly and welcoming. It really felt like we had a private beach all to ourselves. The house had absolutely everything we needed! We will definitely stay here again! A wonderful week in this awesome house!

We took our granddaughter to Hawaii to celebrate her graduation. While the location was not in the thick of things (for an 18 year old), we all agreed how wonderful it was to come back after busy excursions and sight seeing to this peaceful setting, our private beach and resting at night with the sound of the ocean. There is plenty to explore near by and the neighbor was helpful to point out a wonderful hike along the ocean just up the road. Every Saturday there is a farmers market behind Starbucks that was great fun and found some treasures to take with us. Our granddaughter was thrilled she was steps away from the beach and mentioned she found Joy right here! The house met all of our needs and Reyna was so helpful and prompt at addressing our questions. Thank you! We take with us wonderful memories of beautiful sunsets, seeing sea turtles , watching monk seals, seeing dolphins!!! We look forward to returning to this sweet little gem. Mahalo🏝

My family has always wanted to visit HI. This house was in a very quiet area. The beach was mostly deserted but we like our space. The host was very accommodating and very responsive. I hope we can come back some day. This place is awesome.

The location was awesome and the house was perfect! House has everything you need! Plenty of beach towels and chairs. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again. The sunsets on the beach were spectacular.

This house is the perfect vacation rental. It is situated right on the beach with a nice sized lawn to grill and kick a soccer ball around. We enjoyed our mornings watching the light rise over the ocean from the mountains behind us. And in the evenings the sunsets are out of this world. We enjoyed watching it every night as a family and then falling asleep to the sound of the waves.
The house has everything you could need. Every piece of comfort is already there: the kitchen is well stocked with essentials, laundry detergent for the washing machine, and even some toiletries in the bathroom as well. There are beach towels, boogie boards and floats to take advantage of the amazing beach right at your doorstep. The beach itself is beautiful and clean.
The location is away from the touristy areas of Hawaii, which is exactly what we were looking for. This is your own little section of paradise when you are here and we felt safe and comfortable the whole time. It was like being at home.
Thank you Reyna for being such a considerate host. As a host she answered all of our questions, and was very responsive to anything we needed both while booking and after.
To say that we didn’t want to leave is an understatement and we definitely want to return in the future.

This property took my breath away. I saw turtles, dolphins, surfers, crashing waves, and flying fish all from the back porch. The views were unlike any property I have stayed in. The home itself was great and Reyna was so responsive, gave great local tips, and kind. I would not hesitate staying here again, my only regret is that we weren’t here longer!

Cute beachfront home with lots of small details that were much appreciated by our family. Perfect location for a Hawaiian beach getaway. Looking forward to returning! Thank you for opening up your beautiful home!

Great place to stay. Private. Clean. Watched sea turtles and whales from the patio.

This rental has the most amazing beach access to Makaha Beach! It was so enjoyable and made our trip. The house itself is very clean and had all the necessities like washer/dryer, boogie boards, etc. It is a short drive to beautiful Yokohama Beach and Ka'ena Point (awesome oceanside hike). As others have mentioned it is "off the beaten path", and a drive to all the touristy sites. That is what we wanted, though. Perfect for our family!

Whale watching from each chairs daily. Surfers on distant beach fun to see. Comfortable residence away from crowds but within a short car ride to Honolulu.
Gracious and helpful hostess. Highly recommend this Vrbo. 👍

The beach access from this rental is amazing. The beach affronts approximately 10 homes which connects to a larger public beach park. This rental is towards the end opposite the beach park. We didn’t see many people along our part of the beach, and the beach park was not crowded (we were there in February during the week days). The home was clean and the layout matched the pictures. The host was very communicative throughout the entire process.

This property was a great place to meet grown children and grandchildren. Plenty of room in a good location. Easy access in a quiet neighborhood. Property was very nice and well set up. We plan to stay again in the future.

Spectacular property and steps from ocean.. hear the waves at night.
As expected it is far from Waikiki but you already know that. If you are looking to spend time away from the crowds then this is a great place

Such a great location to enjoy beachfront and helpful host Reyna whenever I asked. This house made me feeling home and another fun while traveling. Here is some pros and cons I guess.
(1) Pros
- Enjoyable back yard and ocean front
- Good amenities and floor plan
- Good appliance such as A/C, Smart TV, Washer & Dryer, Keurig etc.
(2) Cons
- Need pest control to keep away from ants, cockroaches
- Need some dishwasher, toaster, kettle, BBQ gas grill etc

We enjoyed staying at this property with the almost private beach and the quietness of the neighborhood. Everything went really well. The place has some small issues but nothing major. We would definitely go back again.

Our recent stay in this lovelyn beachfront cottage fully exceeded our expectations!! There was plenty of room to accommodate our party of 4. The furnishings and basic supplies were more than adequate. Great place to enjoy indoor/outdoor living!! Our host was very responsive and helpful. She quickly answered all our questions and recommended nearby beaches for us to enjoy. The beachfront offered multiple tide pools, sandy beaches, ever changing waves, and magnificent sunsets!! We definitely would return here and highly recommend it to all who are looking for a peaceful and private Hawaiian experience.

Loved going to sleep to the Sound of the waves on the rocks right out the back door. Just steps to beautiful Makala Beach. Sunsets were perfect. Reyna’s place was clean and comfortable. Never heard neighbors or road traffic. Ceiling fans kept us comfortable, only used A/C couple times. Hopefully be back soon, we will recommend to family and friends.

The property was very clean and pictures matched what we saw when we arrived. Well appointed throughout, including everything needed for an enjoyable stay (plenty of towels, beach equipment, outdoor loungers, etc.). Though a public beach, the property is on a secluded end of the beach and very few people walked past the home. The larger beach is a short walk away and amazing as well.
5.0
A beautiful location with a very clean and comfortable house. We drove all over Oahu and loved coming back and relaxing at this house. The beach at the back of the house felt private and faces a gorgeous sunset. Short walk down to Akis beach which was never crowded and great for swimming and snorkeling. We visited many beaches and Akis was our favorite. Beds and shower were great. Everything was just as we hoped it would be and I highly recommend!

We absolutely loved our stay at this rental! We had the most amazing ocean view and sunsets where we stayed! The house was charming and we loved the more local vibes of where we stayed! We ate at a nearby cafe called Spinners every day for breakfast!
5.0
This property is located in a quiet neighborhood just next to the ocean when waves and sunset frame your pleasant and comfortable stay.
The property has everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable and simple.
Even the property has a wall based AC, we didn’t need it as temperature during the nights was perfect, so we could have windows wide open (they are netted) and enjoy sound of breaking waves on the shore.
A sandy beach is just a few minute down the shore and good for swimming. Just be careful and watch for big waves and surge current. We will certainly be back some time in near future.

I needed to get away for some R&R and this house was the perfect remedy! Yes it’s a bit up the west coast, but to me that made it even more enjoyable. Local foods, beaches and not a lot of people. Reyna was also the absolute best!!
5.0
This property was amazing. Literal steps from the beach and the waves crashing at night. I couldn’t have pictured a more beautiful location. It’s away from the busy parts of the island which I loved. Reyna made sure communication was open and speedy. It was such a gorgeous property I highly recommend this if you’re looking for relaxation!

This place is amazing! From the host, to the house, to the view from the backyard, this place was just amazing. The property had some beach equipment which made it easy to stay shaded and kids occupied with the boogie boards. The inside of this property is spacious, clean and very nicely decorated for a good beach, loving feel. The AC was amazing and the house even had floor fans and ceiling fans to ensure we were comfortable which we were. Beds were clean and comfy and my son loved the couches in the living room! Having a kitchen and a laundry room made this property even better so we could do laundry as needed and save money by cooking our own meals! The backyard was large and we enjoyed watching the sunset and sunrise while my daughter laid in the hammock. We went out every morning by the rocks to look for sea life. With just a short 5min walk to the right of the backyard, you have a beautiful beach will access to swimming or snorkeling. The neighborhood was clean and we felt safe. Thank you! We cannot wait to come back and visit this wonderful home!

Beautiful location, free from crowds
This place is absolutely wonderful! It was perfect for our little family. The beach access is so awesome, sunsets beautiful, well kept modern yet hawaiian touch home. Everything is updated and functional. We spent most our time on the lanai (patio) to hear the waves and relax. We would definitely come stay again. The nice thing about Makaha is the local feel and free from traffic and crowds of people. Loved the island lifestyle. Thanks for a great experience!!!

We had a really great experience with Reyna’a house. She was a really nice and helpful host. The house is perfectly clean and newly furnished. The neighborhood is really quiet and in front of the house is… the ocean!
The only thing to consider is that it can be consider far from attraction and Honolulu. But the perfect place to chill and relax! I totally recommend that place…

Hearing the ocean every morning and night, a sunset every evening over the water, what's not to like? It was just right for the two of us, and while it's a bit away from food & other bustle, that also makes it really quiet and calm, and with two beaches so close it was wonderful. Reyna was great, and handled the shenanigans with our airline flight rescheduling so sweetly, and really helped us celebrate our 20 year anniversary.

No additional plans needed
Get groceries and go nowhere. This place is so close to the beach, that you need not seek another. If you’ve seen Oahu and just want relaxation and a beach, it is perfect. Our host was readily available even on a holiday weekend. Thanks so much!
