Austin picked us up from the airport, which was really great - especially after our 23h journey. Austin and his wife Taylor were super sweet and always there as soon as we needed something. But you won`t need much, because the room is just like on the pictures. Clean!!! Decorated lovely, a pack of chocolate on the bed, a mini fridge filled with water, milk, soda and even beer. Morning cereals, oatmeal and coffee is provided as well. That makes every moody morning person have a good start in the day. As you can see on the picture the room has AC and it works! The bathroom has everything you need and is clean as well. Austin lets you even use his snorkel gear. If you need recommendation for good places to eat just ask Austin, he knows!!! We enjoyed our stay that much that we will stay at Austin and Taylor again when we come back to Oahu in 2 weeks. Thanks for everything guys and see you soon. Mahalo

Austin and his wife were super welcoming and friendly. Austin stays true to his promise of free rides to and from the airport, and provided some very nice conversation. The location is nestled in a quiet and peaceful community that feels very safe. The room and bathroom accommodations were very clean and hospitable. His two dogs were very cute and affectionate! Austin offered a lot of extra benefits to our stay as well, such as snorkeling lessons and sharing his dinner with us. We enjoyed our stay immensely and would love to look up Austin again in the future!

Austin and his wife were great to stay with, they picked me up from the airport and made me feel super welcome. We drank whiskey, watched documentaries and ate some amazing BBQ what more could you ask for!

Great stay! Clean and cozy. Felt safe traveling alone. Would definitely book again. Great hosts thanks again!

During our stay Austin and his wife Taylor made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived at Ewa Beach until the moment we had to sadly leave. We woke up the first day to a good morning breakfast, before our host took us to a beautiful local beach. Throughout the entire trip Austin provided us with everything we needed from snorkeling gear to advice about which restaurants to dine at. This Airbnb was truly like living at a 5-star hotel room with such great service. They were very respectful and clean and valued our privacy, while also making us feel welcome and giving us great advice about what to do. We would highly recommend anyone to stay with them and the trip wouldn't have been the same without them. Austin even taught my fiance to surf! By the end of the trip, we felt like locals and that we understood the Hawaiin word Ohana, because that's how we were treated. Thank you Austin and Taylor!!!

Clean place and stock with your travel needs. Quiet neighborhood. Safeway is near by if you need to stock up.

We really loved the stay here., it was neat, clean place and we had a comfortable sleep after long day !! Austin and Taylor were nice to us !!

Austin and his wife were very friendly, hospitable, and accommodating. I stayed for a full week for work, and was with coworkers the whole time, so I wasn't around much. However the stay was excellent, and the place was clean and comfortable. Definitely recommended.

This charming little place was perfect for our needs! I booked it for a same day arrival and actually showed up a bit earlier than check in time and the host was extremely accommodating and very pleasant.

Chris and Fe were amazing hosts. They went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and happy. The space was great. It is an apartment connected to their house, so you will see their family coming and going. Their family is wonderful, by the way. Privacy is not a problem either. Overall, I thin anyone will be happy with booking this place.

Very cozy little house. Quiet neighborhood. Two-minute walk to the ocean. We stayed for 10 days. Fe is a really hospitable host:) There's a convenience store across the street. Definitely recommend renting a car if you want to stay here because it is far from the tourist attractions. We never had problem finding street parking in front of the house! Feels safe in the neighborhood.

Very clean and everything you need for a week plus stay. I would recommend this b & b for anyone.

Was greeted by Fe on arrival. She is very friendly and welcoming. Place was as pictured, very quaint and clean. Location is quiet and I felt very secure. They were very accommodating to my request for a 2 day extension. Would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and quiet place away from all the hustle and bustle. Chris was very responsive to any questions that I had. Would gladly book this place again.

What a great location! Quiet, peaceful, safe and clean. Great host, Fe and Chris are amazing! Easy going friendly and very helpful. Fe reached out to her friends and helped our daughter with surf lesson.. Chris gave us the insider information about the driving conditions so we were never late for any of our tours. The extra little things that made our trip very enjoyable. Many thanks we will see you again.. Home away for home.

Felt at home every minute.... Will gladly stay again...

Our stay at Chris and Fe's place was wonderful. We stayed in their detached unit but keep in mind that it is attached to a bigger home where the family stays in so in actuality you are renting out a closed off unit that is a part of a bigger house. Being that it was a unit "attached" to the house, you had a chance to socialize with Chris, Fe, and their family as they live right on the same property. If you don't want to hang out and socialize, you can always just go into the rental and do your own thing. Chris and Fe's family were super nice and made us feel right at home. The unit itself was clean, well-organized, and a pleasant stay the whole week we were there. If we had any issues (which we really didn't), Chris was a text away and he was always prompt to answer. As far as the neighborhood, it was quiet and had a relaxed vibe. There are multiple security cameras on the property keeping an eye on everything so our stay felt safe and secured. The unit was indeed right by the beach but we never made it out to look at it. There is a little mini-mart near the property in case you need something and don't want to drive anywhere. However, in order to fully experience the area, you might want to think about renting a car. All in all, great stay and we definitely would stay here again.

They are such a nice persons.. we felt like home since the first second. I recommend this place! Thanks Team Taylor

This place is awesome, great room, really clean , super nice. You have your own room and private bathroom, Keith is really nice and welcoming and he will definitely make you feel at home. Only recommendation would be that you need a car to get there and enjoy the island, but other than that it is a really nice spot. Cable TV and everything. Mahalo.

The room was very clean and nice. The location is easy to get around by car and team taylor was very wellcoming!

We had a wonderful stay in Team Taylors house. Keith was very polite and he even waited for us until we arrived in the night. The room is very clean. The bed was very comfortable and the area is really quiet. We would definitely recommend this host!

My wife and I enjoyed our stay with team Taylor. They are nice and hospitable couple. This is a great central location. It's located within 35 minutes to north shore and about 40 minutes to Waikiki. Perfect place to get away from the busy city life. We highly recommend team Taylor.:)

Our stay was wonderful! The house was brand new, clean, and beautifully decorated. The bed was very comfortable. Parking can be a bit of a hassle. Keith was extremely friendly and helpful. Couldn't have asked for better hosts.

Great place. Please do be aware that the bathroom is shared, not private as mentioned above. They rent out 2 rooms and have 1 shared bathroom. This worked out well most of the time. The bed is comfortable and the closet is huge. You stay on the second floor and you have a mini-fridge in the room with a microwave in the loft. There is a TV in the room and one in the loft. 2 sinks in the bathroom and the toilet/shower are separate from the sinks. The shared bathroom worked out well outside of the first day when we waited for a long time for the other guests to finish getting ready. That was my only complaint. There is a fan in the room as well, so you can help control the temperature. Team Taylor was great in working with us on the arrival and departure time as well as providing us with a bag and towels to take to the beach. The price is right and the Ewa Beach is great for surfing or just walking along the beach as not many people seem to visit it. A little off the beaten path, but great price and very clean place. Thanks again!

The Turner's place was beautiful! You can see and hear the ocean through the two large French doors in front of the big, comfortable bed. This was a great place to unwind and take in some Beautiful 180 degree views of the ocean. We definitely needed a car but had parking in their garage. The Turners were gracious and wonderful hosts!

Amy was fantastic and helped my stay be very cozy during my stay on Ewa beach. It was a beautiful little studio and she left me with plenty of accessories to use while adventuring Oahu. Highly recommended. Thanks Amy.

Awesome shoreline! I loved looking out by the wall at the vast ocean, listening to the waves run over the rocks, feeling the power of the sea. And the Studio was a great getaway while attending our nephew's wedding; the perfect space for my sister and I to share. It was stocked with breakfast goodies and fruit, which was so sweet of Amy, who is very hospitable and was eager to make our stay just right. Every inch of the Studio is clean and modern, tastefully decorated with a beautiful tile floor throughout. This place became out "home" and we looked forward to returning each evening after exploring paradise and enjoyed the mornings in lounge chairs in the yard. Thank you, Amy and Kent, for opening up your hearts and your home! Mahalo and Aloha till we meet again! Cathy and Theresa

Amy was a very helpful host and her place was just what we needed for our 4-day trip in Oahu. She welcomed us with fruit, pastries and all the amenities that we needed to feel at home. I highly recommend her studio as there is a private garage for parking on a quiet street, a relaxing view of the ocean and it is located in a convenient area with a shopping center.

Kent and Amy are wonderful hosts. Nice, welcoming, and very responsive with detailed communication. Everything was as described and very smooth. We stayed at their oceanfront studio for 4 nights and had a really great time. It was truly a pleasure. We will definitely stay there again next time we visit Oahu!

My daughter and I recently spent a wonderful week in Oahu at Ewa Beach in this quaint studio apartment. We loved waking up each morning to a beautiful view of palm trees and the sound of crashing waves. We love being away from the crowds so these accommodations were perfect for us! Amy and Kent were wonderful hosts and made it easy to communicate with them via texting or phone calls. Amy even texted one day to let us know of road closures on one of the main freeways later that evening so we could avoid them. We're already looking forward to our next trip to Hawaii and staying in one of Kent and Amy's properties.

Kent and Amy were very detailed about their place. Amy texted us to make sure we got into our space safe and sound. They provided insight in the area we were staying, as well as provided water and snacks! Amy let us know when she was going to be on site to do any yard work. We were very comfortable staying at their house. The location is a little off the tourist areas, but no more than 30 minutes away. The yard is beautiful, falling asleep to the waves breaking brings back fond memories... Glad to be able to make new memories on this trip staying at Kent & Amy's place.

The oceanfront studio surpassed my expectation with its beautiful views and charm! Our hosts made us feel like family and were so welcoming and kind. They left goodies to make our first breakfast. The lilikoi pancake mix, fresh apple bananas and pineapple kicked off a magical 5 day stay in Ewa Beach. The Island décor matched the feel of this property with Hawaiian charm. My husband and I spent hours out by the sea wall watching the waves and clouds roll in. This is our third visit to Oahu and we wanted to experience what it feels like to be a local and Ewa beach gave us a perfect glimpse. We loved meeting neighbors and learning about the local waters which people were fishing everyday We visited Pearl Harbor, Ko Olina, Pokai Bay and Waikiki which were a short 15-30 mins away. Also, there are so many restaurant/fast food places within minutes of the studio. There are two supermarkets close by so we made breakfast everyday at the studio and ate out most lunches and dinners. The beach directly in front of the house is rocky so you have to walk a couple of blocks to get to the sandy area. However, if you bring sand shoes you can walk along the rocky path. The water was gentle waves and nice for sitting and having the water rush over in the shallow section. Fabulous memories that will be forever in my brain and heart. Thank you Kent and Amy for your hospitality and attention to detail that made this charming studio a home away from home.

I can't say enough amazing comments about our stay near Ewa Beach. The space they have set up for guests is perfect. If you want Hawaii with personal tour guides (if wanted, they are not intrusive) this is the place to go! Food suggestions, beach suggestions, fun activities near by. They know it all. I would definitely recommend this location to anyone and everyone.

Pure comfort! This was the best choice we have ever made for accommodations away from home. In fact it felt like our home. It had all that we needed and more. Leah and Matt have the perfect set up for any couple that wants to stay away from the tourist traps. I had asked Leah for a list of places to shoot photography that were off the beaten path and free of crowds. I was doing portraits and did not want a 1000 tourist in the back ground to limit my shots. She had the best list for me and saved me a ton of time scouting locations. As we headed out to the location we needed a umbrella to shade the subjects, sure enough there was two on the property. One for rain and one for the beach. The big beach umbrella worked perfect. In fact I would not have got some of the shots I got without it. anything we needed was just a text away. I would text Leah with a question and she was quick with responses. Cannot thank her enough for this. There is no way you can get more value for your travel dollar then staying at Leah & Matt's place. The back yard alone was paradise. Yes! resorts have amazing grounds, but are they all yours. I don't know what kind of birds live in that back yard but they make the most amusing sounds to wake up to. Now as you drive into the neighborhood you might question your choice. But that is the only con. The rest is all pro. Leah & Matt's place is clean and fresh. The shower is heaven after a day at the beach. The kitchen is fully stocked with all you need to make meals. It is even stocked to the hilt with all the staples you would need. To get up and make my own breakfast was such a joy. Then go to the fun shed as they call it and pick out whatever water toys to take to the beach. The best way I can put this, is I felt like we were staying with longtime friends. It really does not get any better then this.

Wow what a place and what a sincerely kind woman Leah is! My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the quiet Ewa (pronounced Eva) Beach. I HIGHLY recommend staying here if you're looking to get away from the city. It's a quiet residential street with a beach within a minute walk from their home. Each time we visited the beach we were 2 of 4 total people there, it was peaceful and included views of Diamond Head in the distance. From what I can tell we were the only non locals in the area :) No beach or activity we went to was too far from this location at all. Pearl Harbor was about 30 minutes away, Waikiki about 45 minutes or so. We really appreciated Leah's enthusiam to recommend local spots and awesome beaches we hadn't planned on visiting. The space was super comfy, perfect for us, and the kitchen was complete with all sorts of tools and appliances even some snacks and beers waiting for us in the fridge :) The fun shed RULED and we hung out in the back lanai facing their gorgeous and peaceful yard. I just can't get over how kind and thoughtful Leah and Matt were when furnishing /supplying the space. I would love to come back and join them again (and get to meet Matt!) Mahalo nui loa!

We really enjoyed staying at your place. Matt and Leah are wonderful. The place is just as described and shown, clean and spacious and comfortable. The neighborhood is residential and interesting, with all kinds of families and people out and about. It is truly a home away from home. The beach is nice and perfect if you are a water lover or beach comber. I found lots of tiny treasures. It is quite steep and the sand is not compacted, so walking it is not easy-i.e. you sink in about 6" each step, so it is GOOD exercise. It is also rather narrow, but clean and neighborly. Everyone was very friendly and although we didn't snorkel or board, these things were readily available from Matt and Leah's treasure cabinet. There were local families and vacationers out enjoying the water and it was very enjoyable to watch and chat with them. The view of Honolulu is nice, too. We cooked in the well appointed kitchen and slept in a comfy bed. We watched a movie and enjoyed the back yard. The shower was great. Don't know if we'll be back in Hawaii, but if so, I'd surely stay again. Oh, and the house welcoming treats were terrific. It is so nice to have a snack readily available after a long trip. Thanks.

We had a fantastic time staying in Ewa Beach! The unit was spotless, comfortable and stone's throw from a beautiful beach with amazing views of Waikiki and Diamond Head. Leah and Matt were awesome hosts. They checked in with us a couple of times during our stay and always had great suggestions for island activities. We used a few items from the fun shed, and we enjoyed the blender in the kitchen for fresh fruit smoothies. Endless amenities, everything we needed right at our fingertips. We truly enjoyed staying in this part of the island away from the large crowds and loads of tourists. We'll absolutely stay here again when visiting Oahu and will make sure we tell our friends and family about this gem!!

Matt and Leah were wonderful hosts, their house is beautiful and clean! It is right across from the beach and they have an awesome fun shed with stuff to use out on the beach/surf. We wish we had stayed at their home for our whole vacation in Oahu, they have a book with lots of great information about Ewa Beach, Oahu, Hawaiian food and more. Cannot recommend them enough, you won't be disappointed if you book their home! Mahalo for being so nice and welcoming Matt and Leah. It was such a great stay!!!

Couldn't have asked for a better place to stay for the week! Both hosts and house were inviting, charming, and organized. Matt and Leah went above and beyond, providing me and my wife with a real home away from home. They even took us out surfing on our last day! We went to Oahu for work purposes, but Matt and Leah made it feel like vacation. :) MAHALO :) Until next time........

Loved this place! Nice clean appartment that is out of the big city. Definitely a local feel. Leah and Matt include a shed full of surfboards, boogie boards and snorkeling gear. Matt and Leah are super awesome people and will give you great recommendations on great local places to eat, surf, and hike. Thank you Lorraine! Beautiful studio & beach with in very short walk. Matt & Leah are two of the most awesome people I've ever met! We felt totally at home. It was my 1st time using an airbnb & loved it! Close to several nice beaches & the country. I highly recommend this place if you are, looking to away from crowds but still have a short drive to city. Mahalo! Anna

Ewa beach is a nice area, close to shopping and beaches. Drive to Waikiki 30mins. Home is in an older residential area on narrow busy road. It is well furnished for a small family. Kitchen has basic necessities and lots of towels for the beach. Ryan and Jamie are very welcoming and accommodating. Ryan was easy to talk and answered any question very promptly via text.

We loved staying here. The house and area was exactly as described. We had kids and could not have imagined a better trip, definitely recommend staying here! Ryan and his family and their dogs will make you feel welcome and comfortable which is a great feeling when you're far from home.

Ryan was a great host! he provided us beach towel and a lot of nice tips about the island I'd definitely come back to Ryan's place next time I am back 5* / 5*

Ryan's place is perfect for families. Our two toddlers boys loved being in the backyard. This really helped us get ready each morning. From his place, it was just a 30-40 minute drive to downtown, north shore, or west shore beaches. The place was clean and kitchen fully stocked. This is the place you want if you're looking for a home away from home. Will definitely be saving this place for future visits to Oahu.

They have a very beautiful family which live in the top apartment. The kids are very friendly and polite. Enjoyed how communication is always on target for the rental. If anything is needed, the turnaround responce time is very fast. A great plus is utilizing the washer. Visiting Hawaii and exploring all of what the Island has to offer hikes and such requires constant cleaning of laundry which can add up in cost however Both Jamie and Ryan's rental includes this amazing gem. Super friendly for family or business travel. If you are Military In a PCS, TDY, or just trying to enjoy a vacation in Hawaii, this is the place for you. This rental is only 30 minutes away from Schofield, no freeways needed. Wifi is awesome. Parking is awsome. Very spacious Rental for a small or big family. Just bring your toothbrush and enjoy your stay.

Ryan & Jamie are wonderful hosts! The description of the Island Life apartment is accurate. It's a great location less than 40 minutes from Waikiki, Haleiwa-North Shore, or Kailua! There's a very short walk to a nice little beach. The kitchen is fully equipped, beach towels are plentiful, and the warm leeward sun is fantastic! You share the yard with the family and their two daughters are delightful! Spike and Holly are just as described... don't throw a ball for Holly unless you're really in to playing fetch! A great value... looking forward to our next visit!

Best Airbnb experience I've ever had! Ryan and Jaime were accommodating friendly and johnny on the spot with any questions I had or anything I needed. We will definitely be staying there again!

When meeting Stacey she was very friendly and accomedating. Enjoyed the privacy the unit afforded and being able to park in the garage was a nice privilege.

We absolutely loved the coziness of this place. It was close to family which was our main reason to stay. Thank you so much for opening up your place to my boyfriend and I. Will definitely recommend and book again in the future.

Everything was great, it is a cute little cottage to stay in. Don't plan on bringing a lot of bags, there really isn't anywhere to put them. It is a nice clean area and safe. The bathroom is full-size and roomy. Definitely isn't close to anything walking distance wise so plan on driving to go to restaurants or shopping.

This is an excellent place to stay that was very clean. Stacey was very accommodating and very easy to get ahold of.

We are delighted how privat, peaceful and calm it felt for us. Especially the little details and useful extras made your hideaway for us very comfortable and ideal.

Stacey's place was great! Super convenient and just as advertised. I would definitely come back.

All good

Staying st Stacy'splace was just perfect for us! It was cozy and clean and we couldn't ask for more as our first night on the island!

Duration of Stay: 4 nights Room - Clean room with a queen sized bed - Provided: Beach towels, a detailed binder with house rules, information about the host & things to do along with brochures. - The room had centralized AC, and also had a standing fan. Restroom - Separate restroom - Clean - Provided basic toiletries & towels Host/House/Location - Friendly couple with lovely dogs! - Provided a parking space in their garage ( additional charge - one time small fee) - Overall the house is clean! - The house is located at Ewa Beach, which is 25-45 minutes away ( depending on the traffic) from Pearl Harbor, Waikiki Beach & Diamond Head Trail. Would I stay again? - Yes!

We really enjoyed the quietness of the place after long days of visits in the island. Keith and Lindsay gave us excellent suggestions for snorkeling and other interesting visits. Great place to stay when traveling in Oahu.

Keith and Lindsay were so welcoming and went out of their way to make our stay great. Keith moved their car out of their garage and parked on the street so we could park our rental car in there! The room was so lovely and exactly how the pictures look, their kitchen is equipped with everything you need. Also their dog Koa is just so sweet! Thank you both for your hospitality we hope to come back to Hawaii next year and stay again! :) :) :)

Staying with Keith and Lindsay was great. They were accommodating on times and always friendly around the house. Their home is clean, comfortable and located in a beautiful quiet area. If back in Oahu I would love to stay with them again!

It was our second Airbnb experience and Lindsay and her friendly dog made our stay very welcoming. It feels just like being home for our first time in Oahu. The place is very clean and well maintain in a safe neighborhood. There's a guidebook that you can use if you are new to the area, and if you don't know what to do in Oahu, you can always ask her. We didn't get a chance to meet Keith because he was away, but we did had a wonderful time in Oahu.

We really enjoyed the stay. The hosts were helpful with ideas about where to visit and were very hospitable. I'd stay again. The bed was quite comfortable.

100% recommended! Keith and Lindsay are very kind and professional. They even provided a very useful brochure with good advise about traffic, tourist destinations, and etc. You can take a ride with them with a very reasonable price. The bedroom is lovely and clean. The whole building is air conditioned. The garage and swimming pool makes our stay more safe and fun. Not far from Waikiki but much quieter. Grocery and restaurants are within walking distance.

Staying with Lindsey definitely added to our trip in Oahu! Super organized, she had lots of suggestions for us, many tips on things like traffic and even chatted with us while we made dinner. Letting us use her garage for our rental vehicle, this stay definitely exceeded all expectations. DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!!

Awesome and perfect place to spend our holidays. If you are looking for something away from the crowds and a local experience that is the place to be! Great with kids as well as it's just a couple of steps to the beach. Shops in driving distance have all you need. Michelle is a great host and always available. Simply awesome! :)

Great place near Honolulu and Ko-Olina. Right next to the beach. Quiet residential neighborhood. Very thoughtful hosts, espcrially appreciated the cold water and beer in the fridge. Highly recommended to those who want to be away from the typical resort experience.

My sister and I are beyond thrilled to have found the "Shaka on the Beach" bungalow! We cannot stop gushing about how 'home-y' and cozy it was. It literally made our vacation. Coming 'home' at night to the quiet space was perfect. (And the fact that it was just 30 steps from the gorgeous beach with the best secluded feel & view of Pearl Harbor/Honolulu/Waikiki/and Diamond Head was the icing on the cake!) We had breakfast on the beach just about every morning, and the sunrises over Diamond Head were gorgeous. The location worked so well for us, and felt really central as we drove between Ewa Beach and the North Shore several days out of our stay as well as back and forth to Waikiki. It's super close to multiple restaurants (we especially enjoyed the Italian, Pho, Thai food and the yummy boba tea spot!) Michele was the BEST hostess, and we didn't want to leave when our stay was up! We can't wait to go back as soon as possible.

We live on Maui but needed a place to stay for a three day business trip. Michele's home was a great option for us. It was clean, well-maintained and stocked with everything you need. The home is right on the beach too! The couple times we walked or hung out on the beach we only saw 3 other people. It's not a tourist beach or neighborhood. This is perfect home for people who are seeking a more authentic Hawaii living experience rather than a resort. Michele is very welcoming and easy to communicate with. Aloha :)

Very friendly hosts, great location and very quiet.

Great space, very clean and private. Walking access to the ocean, as well as some nearby food spots, plus a very short commute to groceries and larger restaurants. Wonderful host!!

I stayed at Michele's place for 2 nights. The place is exactly like the pictures in the listing. Being a 1-minute walk to the beach was the best. Michele provides extra towels and beach towels; it came in handy for our beach trips every day. Michele is a great host and very responsive. We didn't encounter any problems while staying at her place. Thanks Michele!

Michele is an incredible host with an amazing place! We could not have been happier with our stay! She has thought of and provided everything you could possibly need to make your stay comfortable. The place is clean, well appointed, and just as described. You are literally steps from the beach. Our time here is not one we will forget!

The hospitality Norman and his wife provided was like staying with a family member, who I liked. Ha ha. Great view of Diamond Head and especially the ocean, beautiful.

Nice relaxing spot

We loved our stay at the footprints. The hosts were wonderful. Quick response and wanted to make sure we had a pleasant stay. This little house is just out of town enough to be close to a lot, but quiet to enjoy the ocean. Being right on the ocean is amazing. The hosts allow use of their equipment and it was awesome. We loved kayaking and snorkeling. Just make sure you wear reef shoes or your feet will get tore up. The sunrise is gorgeous. We got up every morning to see it. The house has so much to offer and really had everything we needed. We stayed at this house for the setting. We had the beach to ourselves a lot of the time, even on a Saturday we only saw a couple people. We would highly recommend.

Footprints is the worst possible nightmare. There is no proper kitchen or laundry. The area adjacent to the house resembles a dumping ground for empty cans and other rubbish. Dead cars are in the street. It is a very run down area, and it's best attribute is the photo of "Footprints in the sand". Also it was impossible to reach the owner by telephone despite trying eight times. I am asking for some part of my fee to be refunded as I didn't even stay there, after visiting the house on the first day.

This was such a nice place for our family to stay! We have two young kids (3 and 1.5 years), and it was just right for us. It is a nice, cozy cottage that is literally a stone's throw away from the water. The beach is very quiet - hardly anyone there at all, and the locals we ran into on the beach were all very friendly and nice. We loved being so close to the water so we could go back and forth between resting in the house and playing on the beach. The kitchen is small, but it really has everything you need. They've got a hot plate, griddle, rice cooker, blender, and a BBQ (which we used every night). The AC units in the rooms kept out bedrooms nice and cool at night and we could hear the ocean while we slept. The sunrise over Diamondhead is beautiful, and you can see the planes flying into Honolulu airport. The wifi worked without any issues, and it was helpful to have the washer and dryer there. They've got extra games and beach toys to play with, and they're super chill about not worrying if you lose them or not. All in all, a great stay, and no problems at all. We loved it!

Perfect location just steps from the ocean. Wonderful host.

The hosts were incredible, the views breathtaking, and our overall stay was amazing! It had everything we needed and more. If you want to spend time outside of busy tourist locations while being immersed in beautiful sunsets and sunrises (on the beach) this is the place.

You cannot be closer to the ocean. The location is very safe.

It's a very clean and spacious place,quiet safe neighborhood and a lovely helpful hostess,highly recommended

Brettlin is an amazing host! She was available through text and checked on us from time to time to see if we needed anything. The pineapple hut is located in a very quiet, safe, new neighborhood. Houses were still being built during our stay. Since homes were still being developed, navigating to the location was a little tricky since it isn't reflected on the map yet. My boyfriend and I stayed a week and I highly recommend renting a car to get around the island. There is very limited parking on the street but we didn't mind walking around the block since the weather is beautiful at night and the neighborhood is safe. There was also guest parking right next to the studio but there is no parking there between 1AM and 6AM. Brettlin provided toiletries for guest use as well as a Keurig machine. We had a little difficulty sleeping in though since the curtains were sheer. I highly recommend staying at Brettlin's Pineapple Hut!

Great location and price

Brettlin and her husband were great! They were easy to reach if needed, but gave my girlfriend and I our privacy. The area is residential, so renting a car is ideal if you're there to explore the island. Check in and check out was nice and flexible. This made it easy for us since our flight landed early in the morning and left later at night. Overall, extremely pleased with our stay here. 10/10 would stay again.

Brettlin is very kind and accomadating and if you want a quite, clean, safe place to stay away from the hustle and bustle of the city this is perfect for that, Not far from plenty of shopping, resteraunts, coffee and of course beaches. This area is a little off the beaten path but has a whole lot to offer. I would definitely stay here again or recommend to a friend.

Excellent place to stay. Super convenient and close to town (shopping, stores) Nice secluded and quiet area. Definitely looking to staying here again in the future

The accommodations were very nice, the suite is brand new, very private, in a quiet nighborhood. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend staying there to our friends. It was a great experience!

Cozy place for our family. The beach is a bit rocky so bring water shoes. Shawn was a wonderful host and readily available to handle our needs and requests.

Shawn was a wonderful host. Cottage was lovely. Comfortable, large and well set up. Good beds. All the equipment there for using the water. Ewa beach quite handy to everything. Beach by cottage not safe for kids or scaredy cats.

Shawn was the perfect host, while nearby if in need if anything, but allowed us to have privacy to enjoy his home. His Hawaii kindness & hospitality made our trip so special & he even blessed us with some little souvenirs.

Shawn is an excellent communicator. He is quite gracious & fun to talk with. We felt the listing was accurate & felt like we got what we were promised. Fantastic large bathroom for such a cozy house. The kitchen was well appointed. Loved the beach access & sunsets!

Shawn was very kind, helpful, and attentive.

Shawn was there to greet us and show us around the property, very helpful. The place is well fitted out with everything you need, love the proximity to the beach, nice to wake up for am coffee and walk on beach! We will book again, thank you for the hospitality Shawn!

Our family had a great time at the Classic Sandy Beach Side Cottage! We were celebrating my husband's retirement from the USMC (30 yrs!), so we rented this cute cottage for family members who flew in for the festivities. We live in Ewa Beach also, so it was great to find a place so close for everyone who couldn't fit in our house. The cottage was very clean and comfortable, and had everything you needed to enjoy time with family! Thank you Shawn for being a great host! We will definitely be renting from you again in the future!!

Great little spot, a little out of the way, about a 40 minute drive to Waikiki. Shawn is wonderful and very welcoming, he showed us the ins and outs of his place and was very attentive for anything that we needed.

After much research on areas of the island and accommodations, we settled on Ewa Beach. If you're looking to get more of a local Hawaiian stay, Madeleine's place is perfect. It's situated in a quiet area away from the business of tourist areas. The access to the private beach area with lounge chairs, picnic table, cabana and BBQ was great. You can see Diamond Head and Waikiki from the beach, and the sunrise and sunsets were truly amazing! We definitely loved having the BBQ on the beach. Plus, having a full kitchen made it easy for us to prepare meals - a friendly budget solution from having to go out to eat all of the time. Safeway and Longs Drugs are within less than a ten minute drive away. Overall, we were surprised with how we lucked out with Madeleine's place - it offered everything we needed. The accommodation was comfortable, clean, private, and offered the comforts of home away from home. It was also a great starting point for anyone wanting to check out the rest of the island - which we recommend you do if you have the time! Our hosts were wonderful and friendly. We also loved the personal touch of the welcome cake - it was unexpected and delicious. Thank you for the wonderful stay, we hope to one day make it back to Hawaii again!

This is a wonderful place for a quiet, romantic, ocean-front getaway. We spent 2 days at the beach-front property and saw maybe 10 other people total. The studio cottage is well-stocked with everything you need (even a stove & oven). We loved the private ocean-front shaded pavilion. Hosts were on-site part of the time and were very helpful.

Enjoyed my stay there. Host and her family was very gracious and accomodating. The only problem was parking. I got a parking ticket on my last night but was thankful my rental was not towed.

Suzanne is probably the best host I've ever had! Her place had everything we needed for our 11 day stay. We made breakfast at the place and ate lunch and dinner outside! We went through the whole island and everything was close by. I am glad we stayed there :)

Located in a very nice movie-like neighbourhood in Ewa Beach, Suzanne's place in all you can expect for the fair price you pay. It's quiet, not far from nice places to eat, and Suzanne and her son are awesome hosts. They were there to greet us on arrival and were so nice. The only downside is the parking restrictions that can make you looking for a spot for long minutes if you come back or arrive late. The room and bathroom were clean and comfortable. I will use Suzanne's place again on our next time on Oahu.

I loved my stay here! Quiet, clean, and comfortable. Suzanne was super attentive and responsive even though she was on vacation. I would recommend this place to anyone!

We enjoyed our stay at Suzannes a lot, the apartment was great and included everything you would need and made us feel very comfortable. Everything was clean and lovely. We even got snorkeling equipment to explore the snorkel spots of the island. Suzanne and her husband organised a parking pass for us, so we didn't have to worry about finding a parking space. We would always come back, thank you so much!

Very great host and accommodating. Such a comfortable and great place to stay with great amenities..

The studio is awesome! We were able to come and go as we pleased without bothering Susanne and her family. The only complaint I have is the street parking was a nightmare. It's not Susannes fault but parking sucked! We had to park a mile+ away every evening when we would come back from a long day of exploring. It was painful to find a spot then painful to trek the neighborhood back to the studio. If you are staying less than a week beware of the lack of parking.

Clean room, had all the necessities you could need, nice neighborhood close (about a half mile walk) to shopping centers and restaurants! Very nice family, friendly and quick to answer any questions. Only downside is the street parking is always full, so if you rent a car you may have to park a little ways away from the property. Bus stops to downtown and anywhere else you need to go are close though, so you can skip the car if you're okay with the bus!
