Location, location, location! Away from the busy-ness of Waikiki yet so convenient to the best that O'ahu has to offer, this retreat offers a tropical palate, modern amenities, and amazing sunrises on one acre of oceanfront property (not a swimming beach) facing Mokoli'i Island (Chinaman's Hat) on the windward side of O'ahu. Water activities, horseback/ATV riding, hiking/exploring, shopping, sampling from diverse and delicious eateries-you're in a convenient spot from which to launch activities. When you arrive, the home invites you come in and bask in the Aloha Spirit, even as the sea beckons you down to the shore to rest at the 'aekai, admire the tropical foliage, and watch the moon rise over the placid ocean. You will sleep deeply in the queen-size bed, wake at first light to meander the manicured grounds, perhaps lingering by the water lily pond....as the sun hovers over the horizon and silently but surely rises. Savor a cup of Kona coffee or coconut chai as the shama birds serenade you with their unique and delightful song, as another lovely Hawaiian day unfolds...... The home is a 625-square foot studio comprised of a comfortable living area, kitchen and eating area, separate sleeping area (not quite a room, but partitioned), and a full, modern bathroom. A sofa with an extended cushion on one end for lounging pulls out to a full-size sleeper, and a 51" HD Smart TV is cable-connected for relaxed viewing. Free Wi-Fi is also included. A modern kitchen appointed with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, coffee maker, blender, rice cooker, flatware, cookware, and dishes also provides a spacious area with a brand-new wooden table and chairs for dining. The separate sleeping area is furnished with a comfy queen-size bed, and the full bathroom has granite countertops and a tub/shower combination with granite surround, as well as a stacking washer and dryer (no searching for/wasting time at a laundromat!). Fresh, soft linens and towels (including beach towels) are included. Rich, cool hardwood flooring throughout, tile flooring in the bathroom, crown molding, and quality fixtures express pride in workmanship and ownership and comfort you just as if you lived here. Cook up your favorites or new island delicacies inside or outside on the BBQ grill located in a separate area outdoors (close to your entrance). Dine indoors or al fresco at the table and chairs which overlook the grounds and the ocean.....gorgeous views any time of day or night! The home's windows are completely screened so you may leave them open (when you are "home") to enjoy the soft trade breezes, and the home is also air-conditioned (split zones) for your complete comfort. An acre of oceanfront is prettily landscaped with royal palms, flowers, and a lily pond, and offers tranquility at the water's edge (the 'aekai).....Sit and relax: your view is the Chinaman's Hat sitting in the calm bay and the Ko'olau's rising steeply. Forget your cares, feel anxiety slip away, savor serenity..... This gorgeous property provides the setting/backdrop for occasional Magnum P.I. filming! While the oceanfront is not a swimming beach (too shallow and silty), Ku'aloa Beach Park, with its lovely white sandy swimming beach is just a 2 or 3 minute drive just up the road. Its safe and protected waters make it one of the ten top rated beaches on O'ahu....safe and fun for all ages. Parking for your one vehicle is right outside your door. So come on in......e komo mai.....welcome! Guests may use the entire house. Guests may contact me via text and phone. The vacation home is located in Kaneohe, Hawaii, United States. Tucked away from the hustle-and-bustle of Honolulu/Waikiki....but a close commute to everything! Whether it's swimming, snorkeling, beachcombing, horseback riding, ATV riding, hiking, exploring every nook and cranny of the island, taking in unparalleled beauty, sampling from O'ahu's diverse and delicious cuisine, you are in a convenient location from which to launch the day's activities. Just one mile up the road, the picturesque 153-acre Kualoa Regional Beach Park offers sweeping mountain and ocean views, picnic lawns, and beach access, while Kualoa Ranch & Zipline, a 4,000-acre private nature reserve and working cattle ranch, offers a plethora of activities: horseback riding, ATV riding, zip-lining, and tours of Hollywood film locations. For a literal and delicious taste of Aloha, you'll want to visit Tropical Farms Macadamia Nut Farm, just up the road from the vacation home, which began years ago as a simple roadside store and is now a quaint farm with a shop selling macadamia nuts, coffees, chocolates, and gift baskets. For genuine Hawaiian kalua pig, squid lu'au, lomi salmon, poi, haupia, ho'io salad....a visit to the Waiahole Poi Factory, just a two minute (1.4 miles) drive down the road, is a must. Nearby Sunshine Arts Gallery is a delight for your eyes and offers unique Hawaiian treasures. The friendly, laid-back, beach community of Kailua, with its eclectic assortment of eateries and boutiques and 2-mile stretch of white-sand beach; the spectacular North Shore with its unparalleled beauty, old surf-town Hale'iwa with its shops and restaurants; and even Waikiki and the South Shore....all are easily accessible from the vacation retreat. The City and County of Honolulu buses run/connect all over the island. With bus stops nearby (short walking distance) on both sides of Kamehameha Highway, Bus No. 60 runs directly past the vacation home approximately every 40 minutes in both directions: from Honolulu (Ala Moana Center) to Hale'iwa town on the North Shore, and from Hale'iwa town back to Honolulu (Ala Moana Center), and also connects to bus routes which will take you practically anywhere on the island. On your mobile device, check (Website hidden by Airbnb) for GPS arrivals and more information. This lovely oceanfront property is not a swimming beach (too shallow and rocky); however, Ku'aloa Beach Park, with its lovely white sandy swimming beach is just a 2 or 3 minute drive just up the road. Its safe and protected waters make it one of the ten top rated beaches on O'ahu....safe and fun for all ages. I comply with all Hawai'i laws and regulations.
