Laie Cottage by Sea on Oahu's N. Shore (on beach)

Laie Cottage by the Sea sits directly on one of the most breathtaking stretches of beach on Oahu’s North Shore — a rare, private retreat where your backyard is the Pacific Ocean. Freshly remodeled in 2022, this light-filled 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom cottage was designed for slow mornings, long beach days, and the kind of deep rest that only comes from being truly unplugged. The space Thoughtfully furnished with simplicity and comfort in mind — sparkling new floors, and everything you need. The fully stocked kitchen, in-unit washer/dryer, smart TV, and dedicated workspace with WiFi make it equally perfect for remote workers. Beach Life We’ve stocked masks, fins, snorkels, and boogie boards so you can hit the water the moment you arrive. Hukilau Beach, the Polynesian Cultural Center, BYU, local food trucks, and groceries are all 2-3 minutes away. Pipeline and Sunset Beach are 15 minutes up the road. Haleiwa’s famous surf town is a scenic 35-minute drive. Eco-Conscious This home was built with the land and sea in mind — energy-efficient appliances, solar lighting, native Hawaiian landscaping, and reef-safe sunscreen required . We’re proud to be working towards sustainability on a very special island. A Note on the North Shore This is a quieter, more authentic side of Oahu. Infrastructure here reflects island life — power, water, and internet occasionally yield to weather, nature, and construction. Guests who thrive here come for the rawness and beauty of it all. In the event of an outage, your host can help provide some tips and/or refer you to airbnb support. Refunds will not be provided for outages. Other things to note My family and I have been exploring ways to give back to the community, land, and sea during our visits through volunteering and supporting local businesses. Not surprisingly, we have found the volunteer opportunities that are typically a 2-3 hour commitment to be very rewarding and family friendly (blending giving back and learning about the history and culture). Let me know if you are interested in our list. This is a simple, modest, clean cottage. The occasional gecko and bug may enter the home. To help your stay remain critter free, please keep doors/screen closed and clean counters and floors of all food and crumbs. And mahalo for not wearing your shoes in the house. The floors are sparkling brand new. TMK: 5-5-011:0700000 Registration Details TA-021-667-9936-01R
