Location: Haleiwa, North Oahu, Oahu, Hawaii, USA (40 minutes from Honolulu International Airport) View Map
Accommodations: Condo, 2 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2 Baths (Sleeps 2-5)
Keywords: Condominium
Our condominium is probably the finest condominium on the North Shore and one of the very few two bedroom, two bath condominiums on the beach. This is our second home. The condominium is spacious (about 1000 sq.ft. plus 150 sq.ft. on lanai). It is nearly 50% larger than the one bedroom condos in our complex.
There is a surf and sunset view and 50 steps to the best swimming beach on the North Shore. Our beach is protected by three reefs so even in 40ft. surf outside, it is swimmable. You can snorkel for tropical fish and sea turtles as close as 30ft off the sandy beach. If you prefer shade you may sit on the grass just off the beach. For your convenience we have HI SPEED INTERNET AND FREE LOCAL AND FREE U.S. LONG DISTANCE, with two phones and answering machine and caller ID.
Since it is our home, it is not a bare bones "rental" condominium. It is attractively decorated with over 100 pieces of art. In addition, there are over 500 Hawaii books (including various tourist guidebooks) and many CDs, tapes, records, DVDs, and videos. It has been completely remodeled to the highest standards with Hawaiian decor with Koa accents and tiled floors. We expect guests to treat it as they would their own home.
This two bedroom, two bath unit is an end unit on the third floor (top floor-no elevator) in the only condominium complex in Haleiwa (50 units-2 buildings). Unlike the one bedroom units which have small bedroom windows, our’s has floor to ceiling windows and louvers in the bedrooms (this design provides increased light and cross ventilation with views in three directions.) Although this unit can accommodate up to 5 persons, it is extremely comfortable for two people with the luxury and privacy of separate rooms and baths. The condominium has surf and sunset views from the living room and the master bedroom (you can lay in bed and hear and watch the surf and/or sunset). The master bedroom has its own bathroom with tub and shower.
Another unique feature of this two bedroom unit is a double wide lanai (the one bedroom units are only single wide). This lanai is twenty-five feet long by six feet wide and is accessible from the living room or master bedroom. The lanai has additional seating and an outside dining table for a romantic sunset dinner.
There is a complete modern kitchen (stocked with condiments, utensils, plates and glasses) and microwave, coffee and espresso makers, blender, and toaster. We have installed an on demand water heater that supplies continuous hot water as opposed to standard rental units with a small 10gal. water heater.
The rear bedroom has a double futon with a high quality mattress (not the usual cotton batting) and a room air conditioner. It also has floor to ceiling windows with views in two directions (including sunrise) and has a small lanai (standing only). This bedroom has its own cable TV/VCR, DVD. phone, stereo and computer. It also has its own bathroom and closet.
The living/dining room has a ceiling fan, bookcases, Cable 27” TV with VCR/DVD and a VCR/DVD library. In addition there is a stereo, record, CD, cassette players, plus a large collection of CDs, records, and cassettes. There is a couch/daybed in the living room that can accommodate one person for sleeping.
Haleiwa is 30-40 minutes from the airport and 45 minutes to Honolulu but a world apart. This is the "Real" Hawaii with empty beaches and parks. The beauty of the undeveloped mountains and countryside is an ever changing panorama of colors and light. Next door (two minute walk) is a large beach park(Haleiwa Alii Beach Park. Next to this park is a marina with charter fishing, jet skis, kayak rentals, whale watching cruises and Haleiwa Joe’s restaurant. Haleiwa town is a ten minute walk and has many interesting shops and restaurants and a free Surfing museum. A mile away is Waialua with public library, recreation center with free lighted tennis courts and free swimming pool. There is a farmer’s market on Sat. 8:30am.
Waimea Bay is 10 minute drive away (across the road from this beach is Waimea Falls Park is a botanical garden and Hawaiian cultural center where you can swim beneath a waterfall. Sunset Beach is 15 minutes and the Turtle Bay Resort is 20 minutes. library, Saturday farmer�s market (8:15 am) and a swimming pool and lighted tennis courts (free). We have prepared a guest guide that includes other places of interest on the North Shore and Honolulu.
