House of the Rising Sun - Hale O Kalahiki - Serene Oceanfront

This is an amazing space - joyful, peaceful, beautiful - and the hosts are lovely.

This was a great option for me. Oahu is at capacity and I needed a place closer to my work while staying in Hawaii. Staying at this property was so much more enjoyable than a resort. The ocean is right out the back door. The sounds and views surely added to the relaxation and recharge to keep me ready for my work. Thanks for offering this beautiful property to visitors in Oahu.

Troy and Janice were very helpful before our vacation supplying us with lots of information about activities, restaurants, etc. They were there to meet us the night we arrived and made us feel very welcome. They gave us the traditional leis welcome and a beautiful gift basket full of goodies. They went out of their way to ensure that we were comfortable. This lovely house was spotlessly clean and well equipped. We watched beautiful sunrises every morning from the deck so close to the ocean. We watched equally beautiful moonrises several nights as well. During the day, we drove to absolutely beautiful beaches and enjoyed watching surfers tackling some of the biggest waves we've ever seen. We enjoyed being 'in the country' and made sure to visit some really neat places to eat. Papa Ole's in the nearby shopping center had great food and was obviously a favorite of the locals. Giovanni's Shrimp Truck, just a few miles north, was fantastic! This was a very relaxing and beautiful vacation. We hated going home. If we ever travel to Hawaii again, we want to come back to the House of the Rising Sun. Thank you Troy and Janice for sharing your lovely home.

We have had the most amazing time, From meeting you both, enjoying all the delicious treats that you left for us in the gift basket, to hearing the ocean....Hale O'Kalahiki is truly a little slice of heaven We had everything we could have wanted or needed! Thank you so much for sharing your Island retreat with us and for making this a very memorable vacation. We hope to come back! Mahalo,

Would not hesitate to go back again and again. Troy and Janice have a real gift for both hosting and helping you feel comfortable.

My first trip to Hawaii and I didn't want to stay in Honolulu with all the crowds. I wanted relaxing, ocean front, a clean beautiful place to stay. I researched and researched and decided upon the House of the Rising Sun. From my first contact with Janice I knew this was the spot for my husband and I to spend our vacation. You will not be disappointed!! So relaxing and the view from the deck is amazing! Troy and Janice show the true Aloha Spirit!!

From the moment we stepped into the house and were welcomed by Troy and Janice with leis, we knew this was Oahu's North Shore at its best! The house was beautiful and the location right on the beach front was fabulous and House of the Rising Sun was indeed blessed with a direct view of the rising sun. It was spotlessly clean, linens and furnishings were perfect, fully equipment kitchen and even binoculars and beach equipment available to use. We wouldn't hesitate in recommending this property for your vacation - it was so hard to leave it behind. Lastly, before they left us to it, Janice spent as long as we needed to highlight tourist information and tips that really made a difference to our stay.

We stayed at the House of the Rising Sun for our honeymoon, and it was perfect for us! It was extremely relaxing with the beautiful views of the water, sunrises and the mountains, and the beautiful soothing ocean sounds (that we miss so much). We found ourselves just wanting to stay there rather than go out! It was very comfortable, especially the bed, and had everything stocked in the cupboards that we needed. It also proved a great central location in terms of going north or south to explore, or even to some beautiful beaches just up the road. But by far the best part of our stay was meeting the owners Troy and Janice. They made us feel so welcome and we're a huge help in their knowledge of things to do and see and great places to eat! We we're touched by their delicious gift basket and just how special they made us feel! We can't wait to return again for an anniversary!

The location of this rental home is just fantastic. It's so close to the ocean, that it provided an environment where I took some of the best naps of my life. What a view. Unmatched. The cleanliness and condition of the rental was just great, and you can't ask for better hosts. We had a very relaxing and enjoyable week. Dan and Yvonne

We loved staying at this wonderful house rental. Right on the ocean and guaranteed beautiful sunsets. Janice and Troy greeted us when we arrived and let us know of places to shop, visit, and countless tips of great things to do! The rental is very clean and accommodating...we hated to leave to our next destination. Bed was very comfortable. Kitchen and bathroom were stocked with everything you would need. Also, beach chairs, mats, boogie boards, etc... came in handy for our day trips. We also had a very nice goody basket that even included three fruits. The location is ideal. Close to North Shore and was easy to get to South side of Oahu too! Look no further...stay at the House of the Rising Sun....you will be glad you did!
