I stayed for 10 days with my husband and we loved the place and will definitely return. The grounds are well maintained, the staff is visible and polite. Although the check-in process took some time getting our information and our vehicle registered it was nice to know that all guests and vehicles are accounted for. We liked staying in a... more

My wife and our two small children stayed in a recently remodeled fourth floor 1-bed 1-bath unit with a view of heaven. Having spent past vacations staying in Waikiki we wanted to try something that was more economical and not as difficult to get around as Waikiki. We wanted a quiet area where we could spend time just relaxing and... more

I agree almost completely with jcreech79. Bear in mind that during the summer months the students are not crossing near the lagoon as school is out. Since we went in June we didn't have to deal with this. We also noted that the homeless kept to themselves, and just went on with their lives. The rural aspect of Makaha really... more

To all of the negative comments posted, you get what you pay for. A few coworkers and I rented several condos for the month while here on business. The price is cheap and we have saved a couple thousand each on per diem which would not have happened had we stayed in Waikiki. For those of you who came on... more

We stayed here for two months in a small but nice unit with a beach view. The beach is actually a little lagoon area and if you want to lay on it you must ignore the homeless and high school kids walking on it to get to class. It is also a VERY small beach area. For people who have... more

I found a listing for an "inexpensive Hawaiian vacation" on craigslist.com, and it was exactly what I was looking for. The place we got was a studio, had a full kitchen and a view from heaven! The wonderful owners rent it out to guests when they go off island, and they even let us use their truck...which saved us hundreds... more

The Makaha Surfside is awesome!! It's like staying on an island paradise, it's tranquil, beautiful and the staff including security is so helpful! I can't wait to go back. I've heard it used to be a run down building but it has been beutifully restored, the grounds are tropical and well kept. We had the best oceanview from our room,... more

I just loved it! I enjoyed it so very much that I just bought a unit there. For all the people that stayed and didn't enjoy it I am so sorry for you. The security gaurds and friendly and go out of there way to make you feel comfortable and safe. The parking is a little tight and the units... more

I agreed with all previous negative postings. This place is really really a joke. The unit I rented was about 285sq (very small) for $1300. The only thing close by that you can walk to about 2 blocks away is 7-eleven. Do not walk at night (scary area). Security guards at this place have nothing to do. They constantly walk... more
