We absolutely loved our stay on the north shore and being able to escape the crowds of Honolulu. The suite is stylish, clean and seriously so close to the beach! You can easily bike into Haleiwa which offered a bit more as far as restaurants and shops. We had a rental car and explored many different beaches and areas of the north shore. Unless you plan to sit on the beach all day and snorkel (which is absolutely lovely and was one of our favourite snorkel spots) then a rental car would be beneficial to take in a few more of the sights - which is what we did with some helpful tips from Rod and Sarah. We would absolutely book this suite again and will tell any family and friends who might be travelling to Oahu about this great little spot. Thanks again Rod and Sarah for hosting us!
