"Joe was fantastic about communicating with us! The view was great. Everyone kept telling us how far away it was but we loved it as we are not city people. Would absolutely recommend it if you want outside the city!"

"A warm welcome from the team for our stay, cabin was great, the team were very helpful, the area is stunningly beautiful with a wonderful beach , they also helped when we got a puncture with a local garage. Cabin was clean and well supplied . Would happily visit again. "

"I very much enjoyed using this as a "home base" during my week on Oahu. If it seems a little "off to the side," Oahu's big, but not that big. The *furthest* point form the unit, the Northeast of the island, was only two hours away. And the driving views every where... gorgeous. The unit itself was clean, Ms. Bruneau was easy to connect with, and the place was secure. Wondered whether my car would get broken into at some places I visited on the island, but not in the Makaha Valley complex. The security staff are front and present at the entry/exit gate. I got a "hello" and "goodbye" every time I traveled past them. There's no *dedicated* parking spot, so every time I left I had to look for a space when I returned, but I didn't once have to slog from "too far" away. Oh, and they asked for a cash deposit for the parking pass. It's plastic and they want it back. I got my C-note back when I turned it in. The unit's all glass on the outside wall, with blackout curtains if the sun's too bright. Chairs on the balcony are comfortable. TV's got cable, and the unit has working wifi. The kitchenette's fully stocked; no need to buy dishes, glasses, or flatware. Complex has gas grills for anyone to use, so if you're into buying fresh food and grilling it yourself, it's easily doable. Pool's nice too. Surf warnings were in effect most of my stay, and the pool made swimming possible. It's well maintained. If anything, the owners *undersell* this place, in my opinion."

"This rental was exactly as described—a great base camp with all the listed amenities. The host was communicative and cordial, making the stay smooth and hassle-free. Perfect spot for our needs! Would stay again."

"Best yet, beautiful grounds in a lush valley. Close to the boat harbor and beautiful beaches. Very relaxing, many quiet get always and Sunsets that inspire. Thank you! "

"Great view from backyard - best spot in the development. Need a rental car to get to coffee shops/ restaurants. Great spot to hang out at night after long days at beaches."

"Enjoyed our 28-day stay at Makaha. Nice condo unit. Spacious bathroom. One of the best we've had in 4 years with VRBO. Laundry is conveniently located on the same floor. Management staff are friendly and helpful. Like that there is 24/7 security. Condo location is a bit further than we like, but it has all the amenities we needed for our stay. Entry to unit at Core 1. "

"We had a great, relaxing vacation here. It is a distance from nightlife and restaurants, but the isolation and beauty is tremendous. The house is decently stocked with cookware, dinnerware and sharp knives! There are a couple of local grocery stores nearby, and major shopping is a half hour drive East.The beach directly in front of the house is steep, so the surf hits it fairly hard. A shallower, gentler beach is 100 meters west. On calmer days, we saw residents swimming across the bay at Makaha Beach Park. Surfers were active at Makaha Beach every day. There are few visitors to the beach in front of the house, so you get a lot of privacy.There is only one road into Waianea, and it can get crowded at rush hour. There are also homeless encampments on the beach that can be seen on the way to the house, but no one bothered us that far West. The beach is patrolled by lifeguards from further down the beach, and you will see them about twice a day on quads.Highly recommended, if you want peace and quiet."

"We started for a four night trip in January. The condo was comfortable and well stocked (especially the kitchen). Ken was a great host and allowed us to check in early, which was super helpful. The waves were a little rough for swimming at this time of year, but the beaches were beautiful and the condo was a great "base camp" to explore the island. We didn't know before coming that we can't drive from Makaha directly to the northern shore so that is something we'll consider for future trips, if we're lucky enough to return. However, a little planning was all it took to have a great time. "
