Great experience

My sisters and I’s family stayed at this beautiful home for 6 night (4/18-4/23). The pictures on line do not do the view of the ocean from the back patio justice. The back patio has a panoramic view of Maunalua Bay with Dimond head off to the right, its truly beautiful. The entrance to ‘China Walls’ surf area was right in the neighborhood and a local favorite. The home was clean, well-kept and the on-site host Peggy could not have been nicer or more accommodating. The home is about 2,000 SQF, central kitchen and living room and fit our party of 8 nicely. The home was equipped with AC which was a huge plus! Sunsets are perfect, we enjoyed many evenings outside grilling and soaking in the Hawaii life. Overall I would for sure stay here again, Peggy and the home were wonderful!!

This house is great for families. The owner is on site which makes it extremely easy to contact her if you require anything. It is a beautiful place and very historic. I absolutely loved watching the whales and the view of Diamond Head. I am from the islands and it was great to spend our vacation on a side we never seem to stay on. Being at this house made everything so convenient. You are close to town but not in town, if that makes sense. I highly recommend this beautiful place…especially if you have a family.

Beautiful Property

Margaret is such an amazing human with stories that you can sit and listen to all night long. The home sits on a beautiful rock cliff overlooking the ocean, where we watched several whales from the back patio. I would definitely visit again. Thank you for your wonderful hospitality <3

Amazing View and Whale Watching is Incredible

We had a wonderful time in Hawaii. The location of the home was very nice, quiet neighborhood. We liked the 4 BR, 2.5 baths. China wall was just steps away and was fun to watch the surfers and swimmers. Peggy was very attentive when we needed her. Our stay wasn't without a few challenges and items we all thought could have been better. We had TV and electrical issues; the cable box didn't work and was swapped out, electrical outlet behind the TV needs to be replaced. We ran an extension cord to another outlet. Overall, we thought the house cleanliness could have been better and linens had a smell. We know the house is on the ocean and that can be challenging. The house could use some updating, the faucet in the kitchen was not secure, stove cooktop glass was cracked. The guest full bathroom sink was clogged with hair. The pool was very nice, but the thermal warmer didn't help much. The owner was nice to get workers over to get a blanket on the pool. This helped some, but it was late in our stay. We understand that the air temps can also warm up the pool and that was later in our stay since it was February. We had critters (ants) in the kitchen, spices were open causing the little critters to come in. We cleaned up the old spices and oils in the cabinet and that helped with ants. The owner gave us spray to help. Some small items: - light bulbs out should be replaced, - additional towels, dish rag in the kitchen, - internet security needs updating, - add smoke detectors

About the host

Hosted by Margaret Aurand dba Ku'u Hale Pomaika'i

I've had family in the islands since the 1930's. We've scattered far and wide and many have passed on, but we always seem to return to our wahi punahele (favorite place) in paradise. I fell in love with Hawaii in 1949, when I arrived to visit my grandfather. Honolulu has changed a lot since then, but I love it still.

This place means the world to me. It's been in the family for nearly 50 years, Five generations of my family have known and loved this house. More than one of my cousins has honeymooned here. My parents' ashes were scattered at sea off the point. When they traveled off island, they never lacked for family members eager to house sit for them!

The photo above shows me practicing hula at age 7.

Why they chose this property

Five generations of my family have known and loved this home. More than one of my cousins has honeymooned here. (A good excuse for my parents to go on a trip!) My parents purchased this home when they retired in 1972. They loved it. Their ashes were scattered at sea in front of the house. They built the 'ohana unit in 1975 for me and my family to visit. My sons spent happy summers here with their indulgent grandfather. I can remember when Dad told me he'd bought this home. I was disappointed that it wasn't oceanfront. "Wait till you see it," he suggested. I now see what he meant. A much better view, especially for whale watching. The shores of Hawaii are owned by the people of Hawaii up to the "highest wash of the waves." So more privacy. No salt water in your living room during hurricanes.

What makes this property unique

A relaxing, tranquil place. Caressed by trade winds, gilded by sunsets, and featuring the iconic volcanic crater, Diamond Head, to the west. One of the best whale watching spots on the island. I wake up in the morning, walk out and look around and thank the Lord for this beautiful blessing. That's the reason for the name "Hale Pomaika'i" (blessing house).
