Heavenly Indeed
We just returned after spending a month in Hau'ula. The house was great. It has a wonderful location, less than an hour from the city (Honolulu) but near many desirable places. Close enough to walk are Longs Drug store and Tamura's market for shopping; Papa Ole's, Hau'ula BBQ, North Shore Tacos and Dominos for food. Laie and Kahuku are just up the road.
We had family that went horse back riding at Gunstock Ranch, others did ziplining at Climb Works. More great food at the Kahuku Sugar Mill food trucks (try the banana bread at 7 Brothers) and fruit stands past Turtle Bay.
Enjoyed 2 trips to Kauloa Ranch seeing the movies sites in the beautiful valley.
The ocean front is perfect for swimming especially at mid tide when there are kiddie sized pools. Average snorkeling there but great snorkeling at Sharks Cove, Waimea Valley has a botanical garden and waterfall. We went to the Toa Luau twice. More activities in Haleiwa and Dole plantation are worth the drive.
The house is lovely and quaint "Hawaiian Craftsman" per my wife. Lovely home with lots of wood
details, including carved cabinet doors and transoms.
We had a couple of maintenance issues that we resolved quickly with management company and their contractors. Thanks Ed with Fix da Broke and Charlie with North Shore AC.
Everyone had a fabulous time and highly recommend this place. We already miss the ocean breezes and sandy toes.
Mahalo and Aloha
