This house is a vacation killer - and by that I mean you’ll probably end up dropping all your plans and staying at the house the entire trip. We visit the north shore every other year and usually have big plans, but man once we sat on the patio we pretty much threw them to the wind. You’re smack dab on the best surfing/swimming beach on north shore and it’s people watching galore but still totally private. Less than a mile to shark’s cove/pupukea and all the food trucks and grocery store. One morning I looked at the sand and world champion/Olympian Tatiana Weston Webb was there right in front of us! We’re a couple so the house was more than enough, but if you’re a family you have the loft, a pull out couch, and at least 2 other pull out beds. We had one rough night involving a flat tire on the windward side and a lost house key. Betty the property manager and her husband were INSANELY responsive and helpful. Just do it — we’ll be checking this home’s availability first every year now.
