Everything the dozens of other reviewers have already said about this place is true! Best host, best location, best experience. Cris really does make you feel so welcomed, like you’re there visiting an old friend. And the location is perfectly situated walking distance from beaches, restaurants, shops, etc. Just be aware that the town pretty much closes down by 9 pm- you’re in the wrong place if you’re seeking night life. But that’s part of the charm of laid-back Haleiwa. My only complaint is that I booked such a short trip and couldn’t stay longer!
