Beachfront vacation rentals in North Shore, Waialua

Thoroughly enjoyed our 4 night stay! We are in our early 70's and appreciated the spacious walk in shower with grab bars. Generous breakfasts with yogurt, fresh fruits and vegetables, croissants, hard boiled eggs, and OJ. We ate outside every morning. It is on a busy road but very little road noise. You can hear them playing Reveille every morning at 8am at the marine base but you have to listen for it! We elected to drive to a different beach every day that has bathrooms so never tried to walk to "their" beach. They do provide beach chairs, snorkeling equipment, bikes, boats, beach towels, and a clothes line to hang your wet bathing suits. The Safeway across the street is super convenient. Comfortable bed, AC works great, good lighting, lots of hangers in the closet. Definitely recommend and hope to stay here again next year!

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!

Before I even arrived, I was in contact with Jimmy. He helped me decide if a car would be needed and even provided parking if I did, but the location was literally one block from Waikiki Beach! You could see even see Diamond Head from the balcony! Such a huge luxury! There was plenty of space to put our belongings for our 8 day stay, and we fully took advantage to make some home cooked meals using the equipment that was provided with the unit, but he unit was also so close to everything that Waikiki had to offer. There were great shops, convenience stores, restaurants, even food trucks in the alley right outside of the parking gate. You could see that Jimmy had a well laid out game plan for his guests, to anticipate what their need might be. For example, he had items such as beach towels, beach umbrellas, a wagon, and even boogie boards that you could take to the beach! I hope to return to Waikiki very soon, and hopefully this unit is available again when we come back!

The place was perfect for our needs. Walkable to the beach, shopping and restaurants. When we had questions, Toni was quick to respond. Our only suggestion would be an option to replenish linen midway through our stay (6 nights). We would definitely recommend staying here and if we are back to the area we would definitely try to rebook.

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.

As described, perfect size for two. Everything was very clean, I enjoyed the shower a lot and the quality of the bed and pillows. Right at the heart of Honolulu where there is lots to do, next time I would chose a different location within the island due to the traffic and problem finding parking but that’s a personal choice and has nothing to do with the place which was amazing 🤩 . Host was very very responsive and the location was very very safe! ♥️🙏 thanks for hosting us

The place was right on a good section of beach. For a solo trip it was perfect. Everything is right there! For two people I think it would be a little cramped, personally, depending on the relationship. If you pay for parking at the zoo with a card and give your phone number they will text you with up to 960 hour extension.)

We were first time visitors to Hawaii. I enjoyed this location as it was a little bit on the end of the really crazy busy area of Waikiki strip, especially if you’re driving a rental car! Back lane is busy and parkade down below is small as they do say use caution. I enjoyed the extras such as the laundry detergent, coffee and and tea. My only complaint is the table on the patio is a little high which was not the most comfortable for sitting outside/ getting up and down (vertically challenged). We did go on rooftop patio which was quite nice. Thank you!

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 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!

The photos don’t do justice for how lovely and relaxing this vacation home is. The space was perfect for our group of parents, two children, and one grandparent with both generous living space and privacy. Easy access to the lagoons and pools that were clean and quiet. There is a nicely equipped kitchen and beach toy closet as well, all you have to do is get here! We had a wonderful vacation and hope to return again.

We stayed with our family of six including our two small kids 3 and 5 and the apartment was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The gem is definitely the large balcony that overlooks the ocean. The pool was visible if you peeked over the side of the balcony. The master bedroom was large and the second bedroom was a bit smaller than I thought but comfortable as well. If you want to be in the heart of Waikiki with a little bit of privacy and amazing ocean views I would definitely recommend this location. It was very convenient to be able to just walk across the street to go to the beach!

This place is in a great location right next to the beach and many restaurants and shops! It is exactly as pictured on Airbnb and I definitely recommend!

We absolutely LOVED our stay here. The inside of the condo was beautiful, SO clean, and stocked with everything you could need from kitchen appliances to sunscreen to towels and other beach gear. The view from the balcony/lanai was absolutely gorgeous. Overlooking a beach which was pretty private. Watched whales and sea turtles. The only downside of the air bnb was that the location is not in the nicest part of town, however, the building is in a gated area. We never felt unsafe. Although it is a ways from any nice restaurants, this did not bother us one bit because we ate almost every meal on the lanai as it the views were more gorgeous than any restaurant could offer! We would recommend this stay to anyone who is wanting a beautiful, quiet, and peaceful stay!

Incredible views and lots to do in the area! The place had plenty of space for 6 adults and it was nice having the kitchen. Would recommend!!

Great Host. Totally recommend!

An outstanding condo, homely clean and every thing you would want on vacation , host was great and accommodating all our requirements Thank you

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!

Barbara was a responsive host. Beautiful views/sunsets. Clean condo. Private beach for the resort. Used the beach chairs and umbrella. Ideally for a beach holiday. Took some time to drive to the other coasts. Had to pass Honolulu.

Awesome location. Easy walk to beach, zoo and rest of Waikiki. The reserved parking helps so much. We were able to visit multiple places around Oahu and in Waikiki and not worry about parking through out. Hosts communicated very well, check in and check out was a breeze.

This condo was AMAZING! It was beautiful, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The lanai was our favorite part; it looks out over the quiet pool and you can see the lagoon, palm trees, and the Pacific Ocean. Ahhhhhhhhhh. We started and ended each day on the lanai. The hosts were very gracious and met us at the check-in desk, helped unload our bags and took them to the condo on a luggage cart. This was very much appreciated after a long and delayed flight from the mainland. They truly Live Aloha. The kitchen was perfectly stocked with everything we needed to cook most of our meals, and the beds were very comfortable, especially after a long day exploring O’ahu. The quiet pool and the lagoon pool were perfect for swimming, and the condo is a short walk to the lagoon. The hosts provided beach chairs and beach towels. This was the perfect place for our Hawaiian holiday, and we already miss it.

Julie’s place is in a great location, is within walking distance to the beach and was very comfortable. Parking was limited if you arrived back to the apartment later in the evening.

This location is the best if you’re looking for a shopping experience and to immerse yourself in the city’s vibrant energy.

My family just returned from a truly wonderful vacation at the Hawaiian Princess. Mary’s place was perfect - very clean, cozy, and quiet. My husband is a go-go-go type of guy who has a hard time sitting still, and he said that this is the most relaxed he’s ever been. It’s not located in a walkable neighborhood, but after spending all day playing in the soft sand of the beach, relaxing in the jacuzzi, and napping between beach time, we were all ready to sleep once the sun went down. We happened to have big waves the entire time we were there due to NW winds, which meant no swimming out into the water for us, but my young kids had fun watching body surfers as well as playing in the swash. Mary was always quick to respond, which made our stay that much more pleasant and easy. We would love to come back for another stay!
