HAWAII CERTIFICATE FOR LEGAL VACATION RENTAL (NUC): 1990/NUC-2225
A secured 16-story building (2 elevators) with pool, hot tub, tennis, outside BBQ area, Rec Room with ping pong table. This condo is on a low floor with absolutely stunning beach, ocean, and sunset views.
This is a one-bedroom/one-bath (shower/tub combo) condo. It has a lovely lanai with unparalleled 180º ocean/sunset view. Lanai sunshade.
Cal King bedroom and queen-size sleep sofa in living room. Fully furnished full-size kitchen with full-size appliances (fridge has icemaker) and all the necessities. We supply all dishes, pots 'n pans, silverware, toaster, regular drip coffeemaker (we furnish filters), microwave, and a blender for making those onolicious Hawaiian fruit smoothies. We also have a dishwasher, 2 TVs, ceiling fans, stand fans, washer/dryer, iron/board, all linens (including beach towels), hair dryer, beach chairs, mats, boogie boards, snorkeling equipment, beach umbrella, and cooler. The spices in the condo vary—some guests buy new and leave-so we never know exactly what is there—best to check first and then buy accordingly. We even provide binoculars for in-condo use--watch right from your lanai as the whales (in season), dolphins, and giant sea turtles put on a show.
THE PRINCESS IS A SMOKE-FREE/ANIMAL-FREE COMPLEX! Smoking is NOT ALLOWED in the units, on the lanais, in/at the corridors, elevators, pool, rec room, BBQ area, or in the lobby! Smoking is permitted ONLY in designated smoking area with umbrella table and chairs located well away from the building.
Out of respect for our neighbors, some of whom are full-time residents who treasure their peace and quiet, and others are vacationers who want a quiet period of relaxation, we allow no visitors. Only the registered guests may occupy condo.
We require a Rental Agreement with a simple, short basic information form that needs to be filled out, signed, and returned to us before Arrival Info is e-mailed to you. This document will be e-mailed to you immediately after confirmation.
Makaha is on the NON-TOURISTY side of Oahu--very much "OLD" Hawaii--nothing new or fancy here! Our location is out on the beautiful Leeward Coast with its incredible beaches. This is NOT a touristy location, and it is about a 45-minute to an hour's drive, depending entirely on traffic, to Waikiki & Honolulu.
ALL MAJOR ATTRACTIONS ARE A LONG DRIVE FROM CONDOS.
ALL HAWAII BEACHES ARE OPEN TO THE PUBLIC; however, since there is not much public parking in the area, our beach is generally not crowded. The Princess has NO control over who uses this beach. There are homeless camps along the coast island wide, but not on our beach.
Hawaii has a large homeless population ALL OVER THE ISLAND including the beautiful Leeward Coast where our condos are located. Communities are doing all we can to help our neighborhoods, but we are without power. The homeless are a protected class in Hawaii.
Makaha has lots of fast food and ethnic restaurants (be sure to try BEACHHOUSE 604, a guest favorite where you can eat outside by the ocean--watch for the dolphins). Spicy House in Maili has wonderful Thai food, and it not too far from condo.
There is fine dining only 20 minutes away at Ko'Olina and Au'Lani Disney Hotel. Kapolei is about 20-25 minutes away, and has MANY great restaurants and really nice shopping. There is a water park in Kapolei. All drive times are subject to time of day and traffic of course.
World-famous Makaha Surfing Beach (home to international surfing competition) is just a very short hop down the coast from the condo.

10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Nov 2025
Absolutely - Pat was a great host - very responsive. and most importantly since I travel a lot very accommodating with my travel flexibility
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Sep 2025
Clean and well stocked kitchen with washer and dryer which is always a bonus. Nice ocean view…..even saw turtles. Bedroom AC might be a bit distracting if used to central air but we were fine with it. Owners were responsive to communication. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Jul 2025
The sunsets are 10/10! Absolutely stunning! The beach access is great!! We didn’t have little ones with us, but I would be hesitant to bring younger swimmers out in the ocean. The waves were very big. The pool & hot tub were great amenities as well. The condo was easy to check into. It was a little older but matched the photos. The highest downfall for us was location. Nothing about the property but so many homeless camps all through the area. Very little to do around the condo as well. The beaches near by were over run by homeless so you really couldn’t use them. Felt a little isolated to the resort. If you’re looking for either a place to stay and go adventure all around the island or never leave the condo, this place is for you! Just know there isn’t a lot in the surrounding neighborhood BUT THE SUNSETS ARE CHEF KISS!
6.0 / 10.0Average·Dec 2023
Beach and view fantastic. Snorkeling right off shore and good boogie board and wave jumping when surf was up. Condo had all beach items and bbq area was clean and good location with picnic type setting. Owner was very receptive to questions.
Now for the flipside that is mostly related to the miles of beach encampment. We knew there would be homeless but miles and miles on beautiful beaches made any return a nogo. There were numerous encampments within shouting distance of our lanai. The local town , for the most part has nothing to offer except a friendly local grocery with good selection and prices. The condo owner cant be faulted for the political nightmare in west oahu, it is a sad situation. Security was good at the condo, which was a plus but the local town is overrun with homeless.
A few suggestions for the owner that they can control- upgrade linens and towels, bar height lanai furniture to see over rail.. .very beautiful beach and sunsets. Overall stocking of condo was good and the owner wa very receptive. So much potential for the nearby area but no one will invest any $$$ until the homeless situation is taken care of.
