Condo Rentals Reviews for Beachfront Condo, Hawaiian Princess, Charming in MakahaNovember 28, 2010Reviewer: George DeBolt From: New York, NY
I have stayed al over the islands but never on Oahu. May 23, 2010Reviewer: Tehani From: Puyallup, WAThis condo was the perfect place for us. The location gave us easy access to everything we wanted to see and explore whether we choose to drive to the other side of the island, or explore closer to home. The condo itself was very spacious, clean, well-kept, and extremely well-stocked, right down to beach chairs and coolers. The view was breath taking. I am Hawaiian and do have family that I could stay with, however, I wanted the experience of a relaxing tropical vacation with a beautiful, quiet, clean, sandy beach. I got all of the above. I hope to return to the Hawaiian Princess, and this unit, again and again. Give this condo a try. If you are wanting a quiet,convenient, gorgeous tropical experience, this is it!!! March 19, 2010Reviewer: Doreen & Adam From: Seattle, WAIf you've ever rented on-line and entered the property with trepidation that reality will not match the dream -fear not. Kim & Jim's place far surpassed our expectations. It has everything that makes a vacation great, beautiful view - whales and turtles almost every day, lullaby of waves every night. Beach never had more then a handful of people, it feels like your own private paradise. Those pictures of Hawaii with the spun-sugar beach and the pristine blue water? This is it. So removed from the cluster mess of Wakiki, which we did check out, then thankfully returned to peace and quiet. We can't remember a more peaceful, relaxed, stress-free vacation (oh - except for that Tsunami thing...) Absolutely 5+ stars. Hope we won't have to start booking years in advance! Mahalo Kim & Jim - we truly loved it. A couple tourist tips: Ignore the tour books and go to The Arizona and Mighty Mo in the AFTERNOON - much less crowded, skip the Polynesian Cultural Center - $45 pp for not much, snorkel Haanama Bay on the SOUTH end, drive the Pali highway, buy your souveniers at Kmart (yes, Kmart), check out the swap meet at the Aloha Stadium, stop at Ted's Bakery in the North Shore for awesome pie, MUST SEES - Valley of the Temples and Punchbowl Cemetary, and get/bring a GPS for your car - it will save your vacation, if not your marriage! March 03, 2010Reviewer: Anonymous From: Lake Stevens, WAWhat a piece of heaven away from the world. Just sitting in the living room with the sliding doors open to the surf sounds and ocean view is a vacation all by itself. We stayed for a week and will go back for 2 weeks next year. Love, love, love this place! October 27, 2009Reviewer: ChristineI grew up in Honolulu and returned to Oahu with a desire to do something different so we spent some time in Makaha in Kim's condo. It was a nice, clean apartment with a lovely feel and substantial storage space. The oceanview was mesmerizing. Me and my 17-month old son could see the sea turtles from the balcony. No seals or whales this time but I hear from repeat visitors that they can be seen from this building. I would love to return soon. August 11, 2009Reviewer: Olga From: San Diego, CA
It was not our first time on Hawaii and every time we go, we rent a condo so that we can cook ourselves and stay away from crowds. This time we were traveling with 16 month old baby girl, so we wanted to stay on a beach. And oh boy, were we for a treat! Sounds of waves you can hear even in a bedroom, gorgeous view, an almost deserted beach... September 29, 2008Reviewer: SusanWhat a wonderful vacation rental. We stayed 7 nights with our 4 year old daughter. We saw the whole island with this condo as our jumping off point. The beach is a wonderful surprise. So beautiful and empty. We saw the turtles from the Lanai and on a walk around the point to the left of the building. We found the island very easy to navigate by car with everything an easy day trip. We often did two things in a day and still had time for the beach and the hot hot hot tub! We highly recommend the lagoon in Ko Olina if you have small children as a swimming option. It is not far down the road and very calm waters with no crowds (at least not in September). Questions about traveling ot Oahu with a preschooler? Feel free to email them! May 05, 2008Reviewer: Charlene & Ray From: Saddle Brook, NJYour condo was wonderful. I too enjoyed breakfast on the lanai watching the turltes swim by. Yours was our first stop in the Islands and it was wonderfully calm and serene with very few people on the beach. The condo was well-equipped and perfect for our needs. Thank you. April 28, 2008Owner-Supplied Testimonial
It is not unusual for us to receive notes from our previous guests to tell us how much they liked staying in our place, but this one seemed to capture the essence of what it's like to stay "far from the madding crowd." March 26, 2008Reviewer: Dale and Melva From: King City, MO3-16 to 3-20-08 Beautiful view, quiet,wonderful beach,enjoyed our time on Oahu staying at your condo. Mahalo February 15, 2008Reviewer: Jim and Maxine Wood From: Okanogan, WaKim and Jim are very gracious and are especially easy to work with; always available. The accomodations are excellent and the view is beautiful, both front and back. We especially enjoy the beach which is the best beach we have found on any of the four islands. We have rented this condo twice and will do so again. Jim February 08, 2008Reviewer: Anonymous From: Saskatoon, SK, CanadaThoroughly enjoyed the condo. Been to Hawaii several times and this is the best place we have ever stayed. We would go back to Makaha and this condo any time. January 26, 2008Reviewer: jatinder bhatti From: abbotsford,bc
Thank you Kim and Jim...everything was great. My husband and our two boys have left with memories that will last a lifetime....kids had a great time both in ocean and the pool ending every evening with games of ping pong. Waking up and sleeping to the sounds of the ocean got the kids and us fighting over who would sleep in the living room. Seeing turles in morning, dolphins in the mid day and the most beautiful sunsets in the evening on the lanai was one of the most memorable times of our vacation. Staff was great,and very friendly. Would highly recommend this hidden gem. November 29, 2007Reviewer: Ben Foster From: Seattle, WAPERFECT location for a relaxing getaway to Hawaii! The beach is gorgeous and although not "private", very nearly so! Even in absolutely beautiful weather we never observed more than about 40 people along the entire stretch of beach. If you're looking for thousands of people, this is NOT the place to go! The unit was exceptionally clean and very well maintained. We look forward to returning! Thank you Kim and Jim! November 24, 2007Reviewer: Gayle & Karl From: Eugene ORThe condo was perfect, away from the hustle and bustle of Honolulu. We saw turtles every day at breakfast from the lanai. The hot tub, pool and beach were wonderful and uncrowded. We would highly recommend this condo to anyone who wants a quiet, relaxing Hawaiian vacation. November 08, 2007Reviewer: Denise Morton From: Camby, INWe had a wonderful 25th anniversary at your vacation home. Everything we could have asked for was right there. The view from the lania is beautiful and we enjoyed every moment. We do plan on coming back. Thanks again for a home away from home. October 10, 2007Reviewer: Ken and Sherree From: Olympia, WAThe condo was exactly what we needed to share a perfect, relaxing vacation. We had all of the amenities of a small home, coupled with total privacy and a gorgeous Hawaiian setting to boot! The beach access and outstanding view from the lanai couldn't have been any better - a once in a lifetime experience!!! September 06, 2007Reviewer: Melissa Staie From: Atlanta, Ga.We stayed this summer and had a wonderful time. We loved watching the horn blowers in the evening. Thank you so much for your hospitality and if ever in Atlanta ..... September 01, 2007Reviewer: Peg & John Rogers From: Pasadena, Ca.
Aloha, what a lovely condo to stay in for our yearly 2 week vacation. Everything that is advertised is true & more. Beautiful condo,gorgeous view, very helpful & courteous staff. During our stay in mid August. I discovered "Go Airlines", thanks to my husbands laptop he brought. We took 3 interisland trips to Hilo,Hawaii, Maui & Kauai, cost was so very cheap. $19.00 - 39.00 each way. It was so rewarding having the Princess to come back to. The "Piece de resistence" is the W/D. MAHALO! April 24, 2007Reviewer: Anonymous From: San Diego, CA
We had a fantastic stay at the Hawaiian Princess. April 10, 2007Reviewer: Alex Hannah From: Tracy, Ca.The condo was great, just as presented and advertised. We saw turtles every day and even spotted 4 whales. We would recommend to our friends. March 13, 2007Reviewer: Linda and Bob From: Plaistow, NHIf only we could have stayed longer! The condo was "as advertised" and perfect for four. We celebrated our 20th anniversary and our children were able to visit Hawaii for the first time. They would have been content to stay at the condo and swim in the cove, watch the sea turtles and eat on the lanai at sunset. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you Jim and Kim. March 01, 2007Reviewer: Dave & Pam Kosonen From: Olympia, Wa.Jim and Kim... We celebrated our 25th at your place and what a wonderful stay we had!!!! As always the Princess is the best "unknown resort" in the Islands.... The unit was in perfect condition and sitting on the lanai sipping the fruit of the vine, watching whales, turtles, sunsets, and the vistas from the 13th floor was just absolutely what we needed.... February 13, 2007Reviewer: ROSE AND VINNIE From: NEW JERSEYTHE VIEW FROM THE 13 FLOOR WAS JUST BREATHTAKING. THE SUNSETS WERE MAGNIFICENT. THEN ONLY DRAWBACK WAS THE SIZE OF THE KITCHEN WHICH WAS A LITTLE SMALL. WOULD THIS STOP US FROM GOING BACK THERE AGAIN, DEFINITELY NOT.... ESPECIALLY SINCE WE COULD SEE THE OCEAN FROM THE KITCHEN. OVERALL A WONDERFUL PLACE TO STAY. December 23, 2006Reviewer: xiheng From: New Jersey
We came to this lovely condo after staying 10 days in Maui at two condos.. It's got heavenly views over the ocean, mountains and especially the sunset. I and my father went to swim in the ocean almost every day. It was just an elevator and a couple of steps away. The condo got everything that we needed and we, especially my folks, absolutely loved it. We even spotted 6 sea turtles on 12/13 or 14th. Maybe we were still too early for whales watching.. December 23, 2006Reviewer: Laeth From: Washington
Sweat Place! Clean, great views, private calm beach. Best place I've stayed in Hawaii!! August 18, 2006Reviewer: Anonymous
I have been to this property four times in the past ten years. I love it. Jim and Kim's condo is fantastic: clean, user-friendly, up to date, fantastic view, everything working, attentive to detail. Perfect for two; easy enough for couple with a couple kids. I will be back....! August 05, 2006Reviewer: Glenda Harling-Wilson From: Hendersonville, TNWhat a great time we had in Makaha. Our wedding was wonderful and our honeymoon just as great. It was a pleasure meeting your mom and dad and sharing wedding cake. I would recommend it to anyone wanting privacy yet close enough to enjoy the entire island. Thank you. July 06, 2006Reviewer: Stephen & Terri McGaughey From: Kennewick WAWe loved our stay at your condo. The beach was beautiful and quiet. Loved it!!! The view from the 13th floor was breath taking. We loved snorkeling and boogie boarding. The sea turtles and fish were amazing. The condo was perfect size for the four of us. We enjoyed swimming in the pool at night. What a great place for a relaxing vacation. We hope to return soon. Mahalo, for sharing your paradise with us. July 03, 2006Reviewer: Max & Patti Grow From: Kennewick, WA
We just got back from our trip to Oahu. Had a great time! The condo was great, the view was wonderful! Saw turtles every morning and night from our balcony! Snorkling was great in the cove, lots of sea life. The beach was not crowded at all. Very safe and secure place. Their was 4 adults in the condo and sleeping arrangements were great. Sleeping in the living room and going to sleep and waking up to the sound of the ocean was great! March 26, 2006Reviewer: Doris and Pierre St-Arnaud From: Montreal, Quebec, CanadaGreat place to stay and very safe. Despite of the abnormal weather for this period we were very pleased with our trip to Hawaii mostly because of your nice and comfortable condo so closed to the ocean and with an amazing view. We highly recommand your place to anyone whishing to visit Oahu Island. February 19, 2006Reviewer: Murray & Shelle McDole From: Huntington Beach, Ca
What a fabulous beach and stupendous view from the condo! This is a great getaway,certainly away from the crowds. Nice comfortable condo for two, nice accomodations, very nice facility and good snorkeling. We found no decent places to eat out but eating in was a pleasure. January 30, 2006Reviewer: Cindy Unger From: Olds,AlbertaWe really loved the the condo especially being on the 13th floor with the incredible view of sunsets, whales, sea turtles, rainbows and of course the beach! We appreciated all the ammenities of the condo and especially the guide book of Oahu which we used as our bible as we toured around the island with our two teenagers who loved staying here as well. They enjoyed the tennis courts, ping pong and loved boogie boarding which we rented from the local surf shop. The local grocery stores had everything we needed for groceries and my husband enjoyed meeting others while BBQ'ing on the main floor. We felt very safe and secure in the building and enjoyed watching the local kids playing in the water in front of condo. Our only complaint was we didn't stay long enough 10 days was way too short! We would like to return to Hawaii again in the future and would definetly stay at Kim and Jim's condo again. December 30, 2005Reviewer: Anonymous From: IndianaJust returned today from a wonderful vacation in Hawaii. We spent 3 days at the condo. It was inviting, comfortable and very thoughtfully decorated. All the amenities of home with a wonderful sunset view. Can't wait to go back! If you have an opportunity, don't miss this condo! November 26, 2005Reviewer: John VanderMyde From: Outer Banks, NCMy wife and I stayed here on the final leg of our honeymoon last year, and we loved it. The beach was uncrowded, and we even had good surf one day. We still use photo of a rainbow over the beach out front we took from the lanai as our computer desktop background - absolutely beautiful views. Good surf shop nearby; more of a local and less touristy vibe than other areas. October 24, 2005Reviewer: Monica & Trevor Russell From: Comox, B.C.We enjoyed our stay at Kim & Jim's condo very much. The condo is well equipped and comfortable for 4. The Hawaiian Princess is clean and well maintained. The beach is gorgeous, we saw lots of turtles and dolphins. Great swimming and snorkeling when the waves are small, lot's of fun playing in the waves when they're big. It's maybe not the best beach for small children as the drop-off is steep and the waves can be quite big. The area is not for anyone looking for nightlife, shopping or restaurants, but if you're looking for a quiet vacation it's great!! May 15, 2005Reviewer: marijane mckinseyKim and Jim: Ray, Bill and I enhoyed our stay in your condo and would recommend it to anyone that asked us. We so enjoyed watching the turtles and were surprised when we saw two whales swimming by. Glad the housekeeper could use the food and drinks we left. So glad we found your place on the internet. Oh, we met your father one day. Hope your parents ej=njoy their cruise. Aloha Marijane January 24, 2005Reviewer: Joan & Randy Oscarson
GREAT place to stay!!! They have gated parking and great security. We felt very safe. December 18, 2004Reviewer: GR Brandt From: Ridgefield, WAThis unit is perfect for two people. It has everything you need. The beach is fabulous, and the folks who live there are helpful and friendly. We only wish our visit had been longer. October 27, 2004Reviewer: Lewis Boyle From: Cypress, TXMy wife and I are Internet shoppers, we buy virtually everything off the Internet, and we prefer to do it as much as possible. But I have to tell you, we were a little nervous about paying 50% as a down and 50% before we got there "hoping everything was above board and was everything like Kim and Jim had said". We trusted them and we were glad we did. Well I am here to tell you, what we experienced was way beyond what they said and then some. We were pleasantly amazed at it all. The 1 bedroom condo was perfect, it was in great condition and we had all the comforts of home plus much much more. Be on the 13th floor and having a sliding door that opened on to the lanai that overlooked the Pacific ocean was one of the best spots in the whole condo. We sat out there in the morning eating fresh pineapple and coconut, drinking coffee and watching the sea turtles swim along the shore line. We even had bird visitors come to the lanai for their morning feeding. It was a cool thing. And then in the evening we experienced the most beautiful sunsets you can ever imagine sitting down into the Pacific ocean. We had a wonderful 10 day experience and when we go back to Hawaii again, we will want to stay there for sure. Lewis August 28, 2004Reviewer: Anonymous From: Aloha, OR
Fabulous! We wanted a beautiful and quiet beach for our stay on O’ahu, and that’s exactly what we got! The condo is very nice, very comfortable and well furnished (it had everything!). But the beach was perfect - great for snorkeling, surfing swimming or just relaxing. Because the beach looks out to the west, we saw some great sunsets, too. April 23, 2004Owner-Supplied TestimonialFrom an e-mail from a recent renter: " . . . We had a very pleasant stay. The place is just as you described. We couldn't have picked a better location to spend our vacation. And we all thank you and Jim for letting us share your slice of paradise." | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
