This property surpassed all our expectations. Its location on the north shore of Oahu is perfect if you want to stay out of the big city but convenient enough to get to Honolulu easily. The house is clean, cozy and perfect size for 2 couples. Grocery stores were convenient and we found plenty of things to do in the area. But the view from the lanai is unbeatable. You are mere steps from the ocean which provided endless entertainment; walking the beach, whales, turtles, seals, surfers, waves. But the property is utterly unique & enjoyable because of the terrific hosts, Mark, Nancy and Snoopy. They gave us fantastic restaurant recommendations, told fascinating stories of their Hawaiian families and history and, most importantly, shared Snoopy with us. You'll read a lot about Mark and Snoopy in the reviews. When you experience it, you'll understand. We couldn't wait for their visits. This was truly enjoying Hawaiian living at its best.
