Our Piece Of Paradise" is a BEACHFRONT condo with a wrap around lanai revealing a beautiful, unobstructed OCEANFRONT view of a quiet, sandy beach just steps away. From it you can often sea turtles and the occasional monk seal swimming by or resting on the beach. During whale season (November-April), we often see whales in the distance spouting and breaching.
Our beach is reef protected, meaning the waves break offshore, so the ones coming onto the beach are usually pretty calm. Making our part of the ocean good for swimming, snorkeling, kayaking, paddleboarding, sailing, and fishing. It's especially good for small children.
We enjoy beautiful sunrises in the morning, rainbows during the day, and moon rises at night. We love to sit on the lanai and watch the splendor the ocean has to offer us. One of our favorite things to do is snorkel right off our beach. We often swim with sea turtles who are feeding on the coral just off shore. We also love seeing the turtles sleeping on the beach during our nightly walks. Just be sure to be quiet, keep your distance, and don't shine a flashlight on them, or use a flash when taking pictures.
Our Piece Of Paradise is truly our idea of Paradise! Hopefully, it will become your Paradise, too! We offer free high speed wireless internet(WiFi) and a free assigned parking place. Many people have told us we have one of the best locations in the building because it's one of the larger 1-bedroom corner condos, on an upper floor, with an unobstruceted view of the ocean, palm trees, and beach. We have a true 1-bedroom, not a studio with the small sleeping alcove some call a bedroom. You'll have the choice to sleep in the bedroom on the king size plush bed, or in the living room on the ocean side listening to the waves and waking up to see the Sunrise from the queen size Murphy Bed. There is also a twin bed and a child size fold up futon in the corner of the bedroom. There is almost always a nice breeze blowing through the condo due to the trade winds, but for those who like a fan...we have ceiling fans with remotes and a pedestal fan. Our favorite thing is sleeping on the Murphy bed and listening to the waves lull us to sleep at night, and feeling the trade winds blow through the condo from the beach.
Our condo is in a complex that sits on a quiet, sandy beach. There is no public beach access through our property, so there are times when you practically have it all to yourself! Our complex is located on what they call the windward side of the island. We're halfway between Kualoa Ranch and the Polynesian Cultural Center, about 10 minutes from each one. We are away from all the traffic and congestion of Honolulu, in what they call the "true country" of Oahu. Yet we are still centrally located to many popular tourist attractions. You can hang out on our beach, or go to one of the many beaches or other destinations within 10-15 minutes of us. If you do decide to go to Honolulu, it is just a beautiful 45 minute drive, through the mountains and along the coastline, with many scenic spots along the way. We think you would come to love it on our side of the island as much as we do. Many of our guests, who have split their vacations with some nights in Honolulu and some in our condo, have told us they wish they would have just stayed in here the whole time. That, of course, makes us feel really good!
We hope you to enjoy Our Piece Of Paradise, and come to love it as much as we do. Our goal is to have you walk in, take one look at the gorgeous ocean view, feel the Trade Winds blowing through, listen to the waves... and immediately relax & let all your stress start melting away. Close your eyes and imagine it now.... doesn't it sound wonderful? You will have ''No Worries'' as the locals say...only to decide if you are going to spend the day on the beautiful beach outside, or go for a scenic drive along the coast to do some sightseeing.
We just purchased this condo and are currently remodeling it. We are planning to have it finished and ready for you sometime in September. It's a lot of work, but is a real labor of love. We enjoy trying to make it everything our guests need, and didn't even realize they wanted in a vacation home. Almost everything is going to be new! We have new SS appliances, washer/dryer, furniture, mattresses, linens, dishes, silverware, cookware, beach towels, beach chairs, snorkel gear, boogie boards, a cooler, and much more. We also have tried to make our bathroom handicap accessible by having a larger walk-in shower with grab bars.
We've tried to stock our condo with everything we could think of that you might want to make your stay in Paradise very enjoyable. Our policy is to try to give you with all the supplies (toilet paper, paper towels, hand soap, dish soap, laundry soap, etc) you will need for your whole stay, not just the starter packs most owners leave. We also have a cooler, snorkel gear, beach towels, beach chairs, boogie boards, and kid's beach toys for you to use. We also try to keep some condiments, spices, and bags for you to use if youo'd like.
Even though you do not come on vacation to cook, I think you'll find you can save a lot of money by using our remodeled kitchen. And while you're cooking, you can look right out to the ocean and listen to the waves. It is fully equipped with whatever you should want to prepare a full meal, or to just make a picnic lunch to take with you on a sightseeing trip. We even have a cooler for you to put it in!
There are a few things we want to be sure you NOTICE BEFORE YOU BOOK, because the only surprises we want you to have are pleasant ones:
1- THE BUILDING IS CURRENTLY UNDERGOING SOME MAJOR RENOVATIONS. We want to be sure to tell you right from the start about the POSSIBLE CONSTRUCTION NOISE on weekdays, Mon-Fri from 8:30am-4:30pm (excluding Holidays). Most guests say it's not too much of an inconvenience because they are either gone sightseeing, or are out on the beach during the day anyway. Due of the building's construction, you'll save money since we've discounted our prices lower than they normally would be.
2- There is an ADDITIONAL ONE-TIME $150 CLEANING FEE to be paid directly to our cleaning lady when you depart via either cash or Venmo.
3- We DON'T HAVE AIR CONDITIONING, neither do most of the condos in our building. Usually the trade winds blow through the condo so well that we are very comfortable without AC. We do have ceiling fans and a pedestal fan in the condo. But their are times when the trades do die down and it gets warm in the Summer. We just want to be sure you have considered that.
Our condo will comfortably sleep up to 5 adults and 1 child, We have 1 king bed, 1 queen murphy bed, 1 twin bed, and a twin size 3" foam throw down futon. Guests tell us they love being able to hear the ocean waves at night from our second bed, the queen-size murphy bed, because it's on the ocean side of the condo. The king-size bed, twin bed, and throw down futon are in the bedroom, which is on the mountainside of the condo.
We have lots of dresser, closet, and cabinet space, so you will be able to unpack your suitcases and make yourself at home. We know some of you like to fall asleep listening to the TV, so we have one in the bedroom and one in the living room. We've tried to stock our vacation home with all the things we enjoy when we are traveling.
We've hired the best cleaning person in the building so our guests can be assured the condo will be freshly cleaned and ready for you to enjoy. Whether this is your first trip to Paradise, or you are a return visitor, we think you would also find the binder we have put together very helpful. It shows local restaurants, grocery stores, churches, shopping, and has tips of things to do. We also have a map, a Hawaii guidebook, and some coupon books to help you.
If this all sounds good to you, and you become our guests in Our Piece Of Paradise, we hope you'll come to think of the condo as "Your" Piece Of Paradise, too!! We hope you have a great time in Paradise and make some wonderful memories. Remember "What happens in Hawaii....... stays with you forever"!! Please don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions.
Our address is 53-567 Kamehameha Hwy., Hauula, HI. Our complex is a NUC exempt property.
If you're traveling with friends or family looking for a place, too, we also have another condo in the same complex as this one. It's set up very similar to this one. It is called our Ocean Blue Paradise and you can view it at vrbo.com/3884511. If you're ever interested in traveling to Gulf Shores, Alabama, we have a 3 bedroom/2 bath condo on the beach there also. You can see it at vrbo.com/3013440
Thank you for your intertest is sharing our condo with us. We look forward to helping you have a wonderful vacation.
