    Magic Sands Retreat was perfect! The property is centrally located. We were able to explore the entire island and come home to prepare quick meals in the well equipped kitchen. We loved all the beach accessories at the home. Having beach items made our experience at the beautiful beaches amazing. The home is surrounded by lush landscape that is home to many birds and geckos which our little one loved! The home is comfortable, cozy, well equipped, with lots of outdoor seating areas. We are also very happy with the property management company as they checked on our well being and were very accessible if we had needed any assistance. We would also like to thank the owners and property management staff as they were accommodating to an unforeseen family emergency requiring travel modifications. Our family was treated with respect, sympathy, care, and compassion. Thank you for sharing the ohana love!

    The home was lovely! We particularly enjoyed the deck and the numerous songbirds that visited the nearby trees, the plentiful beach supplies to help make our stay more enjoyable, and large living spaces.

    We stayed 8 nights and were able to relax and enjoy the birds every morning and it was only a 5 minute walk to Magic Sands Beach. The property management team was very communicative and helpful. If you want a place to stay to relax, this is your place.

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We spent a week at Magic Sands Retreat Hale in November 2024. The house is great, and the location canʼt be beat. We could walk down to Magic Sands Beach in just a few minutes, even though the neighborhood is very quiet. There were plenty of beach chairs, two umbrellas, boogie boards and sand toys. There was even a wagon that we could load up and take to the beach. The management company was very quick to respond to questions. I highly recommend this property.

    This wasn’t a rental property, this was a beautiful home. The house was charming and beautifully decorated. The small residential lot was gorgeously landscaped and meticulously maintained. It was much nicer than the pictures. I’ve never enjoyed a rental more. It’s located in a quiet residential area two blocks from the beach. Not on the water, but I absolutely loved it.

    This was a wonderful, quiet, clean home for us to spend a vacation. We appreciated the welcome gifts and all the home had to offer. It was lovely to be able to relax on the porch and felt like home.
