About this property

Secluded Luxury At The Beach!

Aloha!

This spectacular one-bedroom apartment is located direct ocean front with panoramic mountain and ocean views from sunrise to sunset.

On the lanai, you have the feeling of being on a cruise ship, looking down directly into the ocean. The constant sounds of the surf energize your days and lull you to sleep at night.

The apartment is located directly in front of the famous surfing beach and, at coconut tree height, provides an unobstructed view of the entire wave. Surfers are almost always in the water and watching their rides provides non-stop entertainment.

Inside, the 520 sq. ft. unit provides every convenience and comfort to make your visit the most enjoyable. LIving room, bedroom, kitchen and bathroom have all been recently remodelled.

Luxury level furnishings include traditional Hawaiian bamboo and wicker furniture, shoji sliding doors, a brand new queen-size bed and even a massage table!

Other features include a fully appointed kitchen, up-to-date electronics, state-of-the-art entertainment system, and plenty of storage in this spacious one-bedroom apartment.

An hour's drive from the crowded commercialism of Waikiki, Makaha is a world apart, offering the visitor an opportunity to connect with the natural environment of Hawaii. Secluded beaches, ocean creatures (seals, dolphins, whales), hiking trails, and exotic native plants can all be experienced nearby.

Come stay at our place and see for yourself!

Bob and Marion have everything you would need in the suite. The bed was very comfortable and the view was amazing. Watching whales, dolphins, seals and turtles on the beach. The month flew by. We look forward to returning soon. Thanks so much Tammy and Rob

DIRTY gross unit. Disrespectful, deceitful, cheap host. Nice view if you’re outside.
Just don’t! Unit so visibly dirty I had to clean upon arrival (10 hr+). Shower/sink won’t drain. I bought Drano- then removed huge clumps of other people’s hair from drains! 🤮Still not draining well -backs up ankle high. Also: large chunks of other people’s food stuck to inside of microwave, dirt/debris/hair/hairclip/a receipt from JULY/dead bugs/black dirt, etc. in the corners of the rooms; a four YEAR old newspaper & trash under the couch. First three days stuff started breaking. Lamps, fan; I finally emailed owner after the microwave broke. He called & was deceitful/condescending, rather than helpful/apologetic. I was tasked with buying a new microwave (for under $100) & bringing it there & then he was supposed to reimburse me. He said he was going on vacation & NEVER checked in with me again. All this on MY vacation. Upon checkout, three weeks after providing receipts, I still had to ask where my reimbursement is (twice). I am STILL WAITING, as he said he was just now going to write a paper check & mail it to my home in CA. I asked for Zelle or cash, as I am still in HI. I also sent receipt for @$9 for the DRANO I had to buy & asked for repayment. And he REFUSED! This guy is a piece of work. I had sent pics, too. This is the dirtiest unit and the worst “host” I have ever dealt with. He denied the dirt/rust/mold/broken blind/torn curtains/dirty spotted area rugs/red 🤮spotted towels/blackened bathtub/menstrual stained mattress cover/screens & windows so dirty they blocked the view/food splattered cabinets & appliances/burnt up lamp/broken shade, etc. Even had a used coffee pod in the Keurig. It had a nice view if you were sitting out on the lanai. Even after I cleaned the backsplashes and mirrors (sticky splotches everywhere) and blackened switches, the lanai was still the only part that was ok. In summary, I would have to say that it was nasty even after I cleaned it & I had a bad feeling because of the way this host spoke to me. Telling me that nobody else has ever complained about this filth, when I already knew that everyone who’s ever rented it has complained to long-term tenants & that it’s a joke around there. I knew that before I spoke to the host, so I knew he was gaslighting & lying. His tone was straight out of the smart aleck handbook. Very disrespectful. He even asked me to keep the broken fan & microwave so he could make sure I wasn’t lying (I guess?). VRBO, what good is using you if you can’t fix this kind of stuff?

Time of our life!
This was our first trip to Oahu. We wanted to stay for at least 30 days. We found this place that is literally on the beach! It a bit older of a building, but location, location, location! Makaha Beach is good for boogie boarding, snorkeling, surfing, kayaking, paddle boarding, canoeing, and just chilling on the beach. We had the option of the swimming pool when we didn’t feel like going to the beach. Ko Olina lagoons are down the road if you want calmer waters for young children. Tamara Supermarket is only 10mins away. Longs Drugs every few miles. The condo has lots of beach equipment to use. Snorkeling, inflatables, boogie boards, umbrellas, water shoes…etc Rental car is a must! You have an assigned parking spot in the parking garage. Coming from the SF Bay Area, I was used to driving short distance and taking hours. We drove quite a bit to the North Shore and it was only an hour. Mostly everything is within an hour drive depending on traffic conditions. The worst thing about the condo was when we had to leave! We appreciate Bob and Marion letting us rent their condo. I know Oahu pretty well now.

Scenic, rustic retreat
Beautiful setting on sunny, quiet side of Oahu! This fifth floor corner unit has exquisite views of Makaha Beach Park and a breathtaking daily glimpse of experienced surfers and magnificent sea life (turtles, monk seals, whales). The downside: the building is almost sixty years old (built in 1967) and prone to breaks and malfunctions. We were without hot water for half of our six-week stay. For one week we felt we were living in a construction zone, since first the breaker box then the hot water heater had to be replaced. But meticulous groundskeeper Luke maintained a gorgeous garden and pristine pool and building manager Natasha was extra friendly and always helpful!
