Makaha Shores is great place to visit and all we had hoped. It was a very clean, safe property, nice warm pool, friendly neighbors and a nice BBQ area. Ming was very helpful and quick to reply when we had a question. The condo had everything we needed, was very clean, and the beach/ocean view was fabulous! A little bit of paradise at a very reasonable price. We hope to return for sure!

As expected

We enjoyed our stay. It was perfect for my husband and myself. We never did receive our check-in info prior to arriving, however as soon as I sent a message a response was immediately received with easy check in instructions and an apology. We have previously stayed on this side of the island so knew what to expect; travel times to other parts of the island. It is out of the hustle of Waikiki, which we appreciate. Great ocean views and access to the beach. Everyone at the complex were very nice; staff and local residents:)

Great views from balcony and beautiful beach. Condo needed fixes to screen and sliding doors and lights. Neighborhood description was not at all accurate. Lots of homeless and decent local eateries were difficult to find.

Nice Clean Unit in Locals Area

Clean, comfortable, secure property on the beach at Makaha Shores. The pool was very clean. Nice bbq area with two propane grills that got nice and hot. Propane was always full. Bed and linens were very comfortable. The view was outstanding. Ming was very responsive and sweet. Would definitely stay again. The only thing that was odd was check in. We arrived after hours so we filled out the check in/parking form and attempted to bring it to the office in the morning, but could never find the manager. She kept taping more checki in sheets to our car and unit door. We ended up giving it to the maintenance man. Nothing happened; it was just weird.

Quiet and remote location but can be noisy

Property is at a quiet and remote beach. Expect to drive a hour or more to most of the popular stuff on the island. Assigned parking space is nice, but it's on the basement level which is prone to flooding in storms so keep that in mind. I had to reach out to the host the day of arrival because she did not send the check in instructions. Once I got a hold of her she sent them but I had issues opening the PDF she sent and she never got back to me asking for her to resend it. Luckily I was able to get it cleared up with VRBO but the host never checked. Reading other reviews communication can be an issue it seems. Other than that the property was as expected, homelessness is an issue in that area and it can be loud at night but overall fine.

We had an amazing 11 day stay. Room was perfect had everything we needed to do any cooking. Beautiful view of the beach and water. Sunsets from the beach were amazing. Loved how it was away from the main city. But stores were just a 5 min drive away.

Our second time there. We stayed 7 nights. It is a small efficiency but it is well equipped. We like the location and it is reasonably priced. Being just above the beach is great. Usually the beach is very quiet but there can be exceptions. Sunday of Labor Day week end, we had loud music below our window for the whole afternoon. At dark it stopped but it was replaced by an even louder music till about 11 pm. The next morning, music started further on the beach at 7 am.
Seen from the top of Lahilahi, Makaha beach is in the back. The building can be seen at the base of the cliff. In front is the end of Papaoneone beach (Princess).

Best beach on Oahu

This property is located adjacent to the best beach on Oahu. The surfing during wave season is amazing and the swimming and snorkeling during the reminder of the year is wonderful. The property itself is well equipped with all that you need including beach chairs, beach towels, snorkeling gear, sunscreen, spices (the coffee maker needed some attention),full sized appliances-everything you need for a perfect stay. This unit’s parking space is extremely tight-anything over a midsize car is a challenging fit. Driving to the unit you pass many homeless encampments but the unit itself is very secure. The view from the unit is amazing!!! We required assistance from Ming and she was amazing as well. This unit is one of the best I’ve ever stayed in. Oh and, the Thai/Viet food truck at the beach is absolutely delicious!
