Vacation rentals with beach access in Makaha Valley

We loved Ash and Keli’i’s place! It was our first trip to the island and this is the perfect place to for our family as a home base. It’s clean, well-stocked and comfy. The location is perfect. Steps from the ocean and a short walk to Waikiki. We loved the huge windows that opened to the street, made it feel like a balcony from the living room! Ash and Keli’i are exceptional hosts and sent lots of local recommendations and made sure we settled in ok. Beach stuff was much appreciated. The building felt safe and neighbors were friendly. Oh and the parking- chef’s kiss. So close to the apartment and Waikiki is tough for parking!

Really enjoyed staying here. The hosts were very good at communicating and made it very easy to get a late checkout worked out with them. The place is in a great area with nice pools nearby. The place is a little small but was described that way. I’d recommend staying here. The only negative was the WiFi stopped working after the first night so we weren’t really able to use the TV the last couple night. It was a little frustrating but everything else was wonderful.

Great place to stay, highly recommend especially if you have kids. They had all the beach stuff you will need (toys, chairs, umbrellas, etc). They also had a pack n play and a high chair for littles. The resort itself has a great pool and beach access. They let kids feed the fish every morning too which was a fun activity for my 19 month old. Was also really nice being on the ground floor. We could open up the slider and let our little guy run in and out. Would definitely stay here again!

We had a lovely stay. We ate our meals on the lanai, walked to everything we needed to, and the unit had all the essentials to make simple meals or reheat leftovers. We loved having beach chairs and umbrellas and they even provided a small cooler when we inquired about borrowing one to bring to the beach. The team was super responsive and when our 7 year old couldn’t reach the sink, they dropped off a stool for him to use the following morning. There were plenty of towels for our week-long stay, and plates and utensils and cooking implements—even some basic spices. The location was perfect. Not too noisy since it was near Ala Wai, and a very leisurely 12 minute walk to the beaches of Waikīkī, the Duke Kahanamoku statue, and all the shops and restaurants. The team was super responsive and proactive with communication and instructions. It’s a place we look forward to staying at our next visit.

Hawaii is an expensive place to stay, so it was nice to have the chairs and umbrella to sit at the beach and to have the kitchen to have some meals at the apartment. The location was great, one block from the beach and we enjoyed the balcony with our semi beach view. Maurie was also very accommodating and let us check in early, once the other guests had left and the room was cleaned, as we had a red eye flight.

Place was great and so was the host, always quick to respond and provide you with whatever you needed. Location was very calm and easy to get to the beach and/or other common attractions. The views were very nice also, the Airbnb was just as described. Would definitely consider coming right back to this place if I were to ever return to Honolulu. Thank you!

5/5 stars! We had an unforgettable stay in this beautifully decorated home, perfectly located in a serene area with limited traffic. The proximity to stunning beaches, major tourist spots, and large malls made exploring Hawaii a breeze. Parking was convenient, and the short walk along the beach to popular attractions was a lovely bonus. Our host was incredibly responsive and made our week in Hawaii truly magical. Their attention to detail and warm hospitality made us feel right at home. We fell in love with the island, and this place was the perfect base to experience its beauty. We'll deeply miss Hawaii, but we can't wait to return. If you're looking for a dreamy getaway, look no further! Highly recommend this gem to anyone seeking a relaxing and picturesque Hawaiian experience.

Great little place perfect for our stay, great location lots of surrounding restaurants and shops. Very short walk to the beach. Easy access, private and nice balcony to sit and relax after a long day of playing. Can’t beat the parking accommodations for the area, easy and accessible

Charlie’s place was just as pictured. The best part was mornings and evenings on the balcony. The views were fantastic. The city sounds and rooster sounds were a fun combination. We cooked everyday and found the kitchen worked out well. We had a little issue with the oven but Charlie addressed it promptly even providing a brand new temporary toaster oven which was very helpful. There’s a great Safeway not too far away. We would be happy to stay here again. It felt like home away from home.

The high rating, general feel of the pics, and reviews of this listing are SPOT ON. What a lovely cottage-y home base for those wanting a safe, private, beautiful, off-the-beaten-on-the-authentic-North-Shore-path vibe. The beach and view of the Pacific Ocean are world-class. 10-minute, beautiful, quiet drive to the charming beaches, shopping, and dining centers dotting the oceanfront highway heading east. Lots of active things to do in the area. Decor and kitchen are high-end. Hosts quick to respond and hospitable. North Shore waters are mostly not for families with small children who want to swim and snorkel, and this spot is no different. Our only wish: upgrade the mattresses. It’s like Goldilocks, but with only two we never got to the “just right” part. ☺️ Whomever snags this reservation, think you’ll be blown away!

Great hospitality and location. The outside of the house was in the middle of being restored so it didn't look great when we pulled in. The inside of the houses was well appointed and great for a family vacation. Reception in the area is not great, so definitely follow their instructions to screen shot directions before heading there.

Garrett and Hayley were amazing hosts! They welcomed our group into their home and it had everything we needed. It was clean, comfortable and big enough to fit our group of 11. They were both really responsive when we needed them and was flexible for our early check-in. Only thing that was hard for our group (no fault to the house) was it was far away from a lot of our activities but it still wasn’t that bad overall. Especially if you want to rent a house at an affordable price

Thank you Jay for sharing your beautiful space. Look forward to visiting again!

Lindsay was exceptionally helpful and hospitable to us. We were only in the area for a short time to visit nearby attractions and felt grateful for the clean, quiet, and comfortable apartment to retreat to. It was a quick but wonderful stay. Thank you Lindsay!

We would absolutely stay here again. Poka'i Bay Beach was awesome for our small kids and only 14 min away. We loved the house and yard.

Our first time in Hawaii and it was a Great stay!!! The house was very spacious and clean and there was more than enough space for our family of 6. The amenities were amazing and waking up to the view of the ocean was the best! There are so many beach/snorkeling items that make your stay even smoother. The beds were all very comfortable. Kerstan stayed in contact with us to make sure we didn’t need anything. She was amazing! Will definitely stay here again!!

I spent great time in this Condo. It was very clean room and there were fullfilling amenities. Here is directly oceanfront location and fireworks on Friday could be watched clearly. Well appreciated to respond our early check in request and close communication.

Place was great especially if you are wanting to stay in Waikiki area. Easy to get inside. The place was clean and had a washer/dryer which is nice. There were beach chairs available (we didn’t use them) If you have a car or rent one, parking is extremely expensive around the area. There is limited parking at unit, which was communicated as “first come first serve” but we found garage was under construction and had been since October and all parking was taken by residents so nothing was available. The water was shut off on our last day from 9-12 which wasn’t communicated with us prior to arriving. Overall, great place to stay but communication about amenities that were not available at time of booking or time of stay would have been appreciated.

Absolutely beautiful place with incredible sunsets! Very clean and feels like home away from home! I wish I could’ve stayed longer. The location is away from crowds, extremely peaceful and relaxing. The bed and lanai were very comfortable. Highly recommend!

Really nice unit. Very comfortable. Well stocked with cleaning supplies, which we appreciate for an extended stay:) We would absolutely stay here again.

The condo was a great stay for our family! Finding bottles of cold water in the refrigerator on arrival was a very welcome touch. There is more space and light than the pictures depict. There is also good cross ventilation. The bedroom ACs were appreciated at night to cool a little as well as muffle the working city. Just about everything we were to need for a comfortable beach vacation was supplied. Covered parking at the entrance was so convenient to explore further but the condo location is ideal for walking all over and less than two blocks to the more relaxing end of Waikiki beaches. Communication was easy with quick response from the time we reserved all the way through our departure, including thorough directions/instructions, helpful local ideas and checking to make sure all was as expected during our stay. We would definitely return here when possible!

This is my first time using Airbnb and I’m so glad it was with Elliot and Susanne. Elliot made me feel at ease with personal phone call and messages through the app. He made sure I understood everything before, during and after my trip. Thank you Elliot for making this an amazing experience.

we love this place , will come back again, we stay at sheraton wakiki before here, I felt this more like a house, just be aware busy time, the elevator may take long time to wait~ but it's about the building, but the condo is very nice to stay. Our family enjoyed our trip!!!

Comfortable spot for our family of three. Made breakfast every morning with a fully stocked kitchen. Definitely recommend this condo. The washer and dryer were a plus :)
