Incredible to be right on such a beautiful beach!
Nothing short of amazing!
We had an amazing family vacation. The house and views were great! The house was modern and clean. We would definitely stay here again. My kids talk about how much they loved it all the time.
Breathtakingly beautiful ocean views, pristine property, every convenience at your fingertips. This property has everything we needed to make beautiful family memories with our children and grandchildren. Mahalo, Priscilla!!
House was immaculate and beachfront location was stunning. The property had plenty of room for kids to play with a great selection of water toys to use. Only a 5 min drive into town and 15 min drive to the main North Shore area. I would recommendd this place to anyone! Thanks Priscilla for being so helpful.
We loved staying at House of Glass. The property is located in a small town (Waialua) but is only minutes away from the north shore surf town Haleiwa. We enjoyed being in a more secluded setting but having the option of lots of great food trucks and restaurants nearby (shout out to IslandX, Wicked Hi Cafe, Surf n Salsa and Banzai). We have little kids (7 and 5) and I was concerned that the north shore waves and currents might be dangerous at the beachfront of the house. Priscilla assured me that the reefs out in front of the beach made it safe - indeed it was perfect for us and the kids. We did use some of the life vests, the surf boards, sand buckets/play stuff and floats that come with the rental. The house really had everything we could have needed/asked for. The beach was secluded and quiet (many days we were the only people on it), and there is a lovely reef area a little ways north (by the big tree roots and the point) where we all snorkeled together. A sea turtle swam up to my 5 year old under water and almost touched noses with her! It was truly magical. We also saw many types of fish at this little reef included Humuhumu, convict fish, sea snakes, urchins, and more. I want to also say that we did have a little issue with one of the AC units during our stay but Priscilla responded quickly and had it fixed within 24 hours. She was an excellent host and I would absolutely stay at this property again.
Fantastic property that felt like home over Christmas for our family (6 adults). The house was decorated for Christmas and it made the perfect spot for us. Quiet, clean, gorgeous. We spent about half our time on the North Shore and the other half exploring Oahu. The location made both easy, even traveling to the southern coast was an easy drive (~55 minutes). We loved everything about this property and location.
Some may seem the location inconvenient, but we really enjoyed being on our favorite side of the island. The ocean being steps away from the home was easily the most tranquil and best part.
Thanks for everything! Beautiful location!
The most gorgeous trip where every day ended with sunset beach walks, apres lanai living and early nights falling asleep to the lapping waves. The house was perfection and everyone in our group found their own slice of heaven there.
