Family-friendly vacation rentals in Makaha Valley

Mike and Nicky were very nice and accommodating. They provided clear instructions and helpful tips about local restaurants. The home was very clean and has all you would need for a comfortable stay. Would highly recommend and stay again!

Great stay & location. Well worth!

Great location and parking space made day trips with a car much easier to do. Very walkable location and close to the beach. Still a good view of the ocean and surfers, though some obstruction from nearby hotels/apartments. Elevators can get busy, but outside of the “rush hours” mentioned it’s easy to get up and down. Laundry machine located directly on the floor (end of the hallway) was also quick and easy to use.

Great/safe spot and an awesome host!! Located super near Chinatown, Vinny’s place was perfect for some nightlife, close to Waikiki, and quiet/peaceful. The parking spot came in super clutch! I would 100% book here again.

Staying at Liping and Chris’s condo was a great experience! The view was amazing, and the location near Waikiki couldn’t have been more convenient, the parking was a huge plus too! The condo was clean, well-equipped, and super comfortable. Liping and Chris were friendly, responsive, and made the check-in process smooth and easy. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back!

A fantastic spot, great host, clean! Loved it, will try to go back again. Thank you Ash.

This was a perfect little spot for my fiance and I to use as our home base while exploring Oahu. The big draw is the location and being within walking distance of Waikiki. The floor the condo is on, was also surprisingly quiet and private which was nice, and the Malasada donuts in the coffee shop were amazing in the lobby of the building. If you do rent a car, be prepared to pay for parking. Otherwise, a great spot and I would stay there again if the opportunity arose.

What a beautiful beach and view! We loved our time at Kathleen’s condo. It was very clean, comfortable and peaceful. I haven’t slept as well as I did there in ages. The ocean at this beach is very swim-able and there are lots of turtles to watch as well. We had everything we needed and felt very safe. Thank you for a wonderful time!

Beautiful location close to everything! Beds were very comfortable and shower was nice. Spacious and great views. Would love to go back and stay again!

Great location and value- loved the balcony and the family of birds that visited us daily. Mark is an awesome host super responsive! We will be back.

I would stay here again. Location was ideal and room had everything I could I ever need. The room is small and I pack light, so it was perfect for me. My favorite part was the balcony and having the little counter and chairs out there. My least favorite part was the noise at night on the weekend, but it is to be expected with the location, so I was not surprised.

My husband and I were pleased that we were able to book Janet's condo again; our family was last here in 9/2022. This condo is nicely situated in Waikiki; many popular Waikiki restaurants are within a 5-15 minute walk. The beach is also a short 5-10 minute walk from the condo. Our host provided beach towels and chairs which is a nice perk. There is also a pharmacy and many ABC stores close by. We were able to see some of the fireworks on Friday as well as the fireworks on Sunday from the Honolulu Festival from the condo. At the time of booking, we weren't sure if we were going to rent a car and Janet offered a great parking spot option if we needed it. She provided very clear check in instructions and we appreciate that she was able to accommodate our early arrival due to our flight schedule. Would be happy to stay here again!

I don't think we could have found a better place or location at such a reasonable rate for Waikiki! Janet's condominium was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay. Janet graciously allowed us to check-in early because the unit was available, and she is very attentive to let you know how to contact her if the need arises. The security system in place for the elevators and individual units was excellent, and I appreciated the information and amenities provided to enhance our experience. The unit is ideally located a few short blocks to the beach, and within a few minute walk to every restaurant and shopping experience you can imagine! It is also very convenient to book tours because pick-up places are minutes away. We left Hawaii with many great memories, and I would love to return and stay here again. Mahalo.

I lived here temporarily for about 7 months and really enjoyed the life outside of Waikiki, while also being very close to everything. Kapahulu is wonderful and Kaimuki is also one of my favorite spots on O’ahu. The house had everything I needed to live a “normal” life, IE laundry, kitchen supplies, amenities, etc.

It was near a lot of things , convenient walkable to the beach Nice balcony view of the mountains and the ocean Liked the fact that extra things were provided such as beach chairs etc No complaints

Francisco’s was super helpful and responsive! His condo is in the perfect location with a beautiful view of diamond head and the beach from the balcony.

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!

Great place in the north shore! Turtle beach is about a 10-15 minute walk from the condo. We would play at the beach and then come back to swim in the pool. The wagon with the beach chairs and floaties were key and a hit with the kids. Would definitely recommend staying here if you want to be in the north shore. Close to food trucks, the mill, and sunrise shack. Need a car but everything is a short drive. Would love to return!

We had a great time at this condo for our trip to Hawaii. We loved the location and that it was within walking distance of shops and lots of places to eat. The food truck park across from 7/11 is great and worth checking out. We would definitely stay here again!

Stayed for a week with husband & son for a birthday celebration. We had a absolutely lovely time & were sad to leave. The apartment became like a 2nd home to us & looked forward to coming back each day after hiking, kayaking & exploring the city. I chose it because I can't stand staying in a hotel room with multiple folks past 2-3 days. & the Hawaii hotel prices are crazy anyway so might as well spread out. But the plus was the apartments location. Far enough from the city were you feel secluded & able to use the walk path/lagoon/pools without fighting for space at all. & the best view ever from the balcony. I loved laying out drinking tea and reading each morning. Great set up between Disney & Four Seasons, seems like a secret hideaway. The hotel its itself is layed out well with a great tropical in/out feel. Definitely will need a car but easily covered with free parking. Got a little sad when realized 16th is the highest floor but still felt like a penthouse to me with own hallway!

Thu's unit was exactly as described in the listing. We had our family of 5, and we were super comfortable the entire stay. Two large bedrooms, two nice bathrooms, welcoming living room, kitchen, and beautiful lanai. The complex or resort the unit is in Ko Olina Beach Villas was very well-run, with beautiful pools and grounds. All common areas were incredibly clean and the building seemed to be very well run by management there. My kids loved the pools, we loved the peacefulness of the pool area compared to the experiences we've had at the two neighboring resorts Marriott and Disney. We would love to return to Thu's unit and KOBV on our next vacation!

Delightful week's stay in Maurie's comfortable & well-appointed condo! Just as described in photos with the desirable Marina view. Gorgeous sunsets from the large & carpeted lanai with comfortable chairs & a table PLUS a chaise lounge. Wonderful for enjoying morning tea, reading, just relaxing or soaking in the beautiful view. While I've stayed many times in various privately-owned condos at the Ilikai, I appreciated the special touches Maurie's includes: boogie boards, comfy beach chairs, large beach towels, & a welcome gift (Mahalo) & notebook w/lots of local info. As a non-coffee drinker, I was happily surprised to find a tea kettle & cute tea pot. Bed was comfy & the bathroom, while short on counter space, has cabinet space above sink for conveniently storing toiletries. WiFi was fast & works well. We did not watch TV but there's a large one. I added new hangers to the closet. : ) A luggage rack would be a welcome addition. Maurie is an impressively responsive & kind host--5 stars!

We had a lovely stay at Melissa’s condo in Ko Olina. We visited for a friend’s wedding at the four seasons. The location was perfect as we were able to walk to and from the wedding. Also within walking distance were the Aulani resort for families who like Disney and a few restaurants. The condo is situated right on the beach in a resort with a couple of pools ( which we did not ). The condo was sparkling clean, well outfitted with beach gear, and it was great to have a designated parking spot, 24-hr front desk, and well-equipped gym. Would stay again if we ever return to Oahu.

Location is excellent and had everything we needed for our stay. For us having a garage spot was a must since we wanted to explore the island and had a car during our stay. The check-in was very easy, as well as the check out. I was a bit worried about the elevator due to the reviews but we had no issues. The building has 4 elevators and all were working during our stay, and they are fast so the wait time was minimal. Overall it was a wonderful stay and I would highly recommend it!
