About this house rental
This spectacular property is beachfront on Waimanalo Beach, with stunning views of Rabbit Island, towering cliffs, Makapu'u Lighthouse, and the Ko'olau mountains. It is steps away from a protected swimming lagoon and where Magnum PI was filmed. Enjoy this pristine beach environment from this property where tropical paradise meets French country villa! All bedrooms enjoy a private, en-suite bath and all have ocean views except one. The large lanai, rooftop deck, and beach access give you an instant island feel and makes you appreciate Hawaii like a local.
The beach here is extremely calm due to the reef and distant shore break and is perfect for kids with a protected, shallow lagoon for swimming. The snorkeling is excellent with frequent sea turtle sightings!
Features:
5 Bedrooms and 7 Bathrooms all with central air conditioning
Downstairs (2 bedrooms, 2.5 bath, laundry room, large chef's kitchen, dining room, and living room) + lanai/BBQ with outdoor toilet/shower
Upstairs (3 bedrooms including a separate studio, 3 bath, kitchen, rooftop deck)
This two-level home has separate entrances for the downstairs, upstairs, and upstairs studio and allows for large groups to enjoy common areas while still having their own separate quarters for privacy.
Celebrate in the evenings with a barbecue in the spacious and festive lanai and oceanside lawn. The convenient gas grill and indoor/outdoor dining spaces will help you enjoy warm tropical nights! Do a movie night with friends in high-definition, widescreen Plasma TV (one in each room with cable and DVDs). Or lie out on the recliners to appreciate incredible stargazing by night. For the home chef, there is plenty of silverware, cookware, linens, beautiful serving platters, and even baking supplies. There is parking for up to 4-5 vehicles with additional free public parking across the street.
The home is a 10 minute drive from central Hawaii Kai and Costco, and 15 minutes from Kailua Town featuring many restaurants, shops, grocery, farmers' markets and convenience stores. Kalapawai Cafe is an absolute favorite for breakfast and lunch and is located 2 minutes down the street. The house is a perfect setting for swimming, snorkeling, kayaking, stand-up paddle, shore fishing, and stargazing. Nearby activity centers provide kayaks, stand-up paddle boards, snorkel equipment, parasailing, jet skis, fishing charters, and more.

My friends and family stayed on the property. I was there for the entire month. It was wonderful! The beach is right there and it was fun to explore during low tide. Lots of beach towels that we could use and chairs to take down to the beach as well. Gilles was always easy to get a hold of if we had any issues. The house was spacious and clean and had all the amenities we would need. The kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans, silverware, everything we would possibly need.All the showers had great water pressure as well. I would definitely recommend staying here.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Jan 2023
We had a big family holiday with kids from age 7 to newborn at the house for almost a month. The location is fantastic — right on a beach that is swimmable and safe for little kids and was never particularly busy. Our 2 year old was in the water almost every day. And it’s great for adults for swimming and snorkeling. We saw lots of fish and sea turtles. It’s a short (15-20 minute) drive to either Hawaii Kai or Kailua for restaurants, groceries and things to do and just down the road from the bigger beach in Waimanalo. The road is quite busy but you don’t hear or see any of the traffic from the house.
The house itself has a great layout. A huge living room with ocean views, and a big kitchen / dining area with lots of space to cook and eat. The bedrooms are generously sized, especially the two primary suites, and the en suite bathrooms were great for a family of our size.
Property manager Gilles was wonderful. A little hard to reach before arrival but beyond helpful and responsive once we got there.
The reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is that the house is a little dated with a few quirks for its price. The outdoor foot rinse / shower works but isn’t great. The bathrooms are a bit dated and each one had some small issue (fan broken, tub handle fell off, etc). However, overall it was a great house with an even better location and we would definitely rent it again.

We absolutely loved staying at this large and spacious home! The location on the beach is truly stunning and the swimming is fantastic due to the natural reef about 700 feet from shore. Most days during the week the beach was ours alone. Weekends were somewhat busier. The house is nicer than the pictures show and it truly has everything you need to live very comfortably. There is plenty of beach equipment and towels. As some previous guests have mentioned the house is older and definitely has some 'quirks.' But all the kitchen appliances were in good or new condition and the AC in all rooms worked great. This is home has wear and tear but Gilles the host is excellent and responded very quickly to the couple of needed repairs. It would be best to have a car if staying at the property but we also ubered places and it was never a problem. There are many restaurants and grocery stores 15 minutes away and it never took us more than 35 mi minutes to drive into Waikik. Do not be afraid to stay on this side of the island. It was wonderful. Would book this property again!

The property is literally ten steps away from a beautiful beach. It is very spacious and clean. There is plenty of beach equipment - chairs, towels, boards.
It is a bit away from stores, shops, and restaurants so a car is necessary.
We enjoyed our stay very much!
