Neighborhood Overview: We live in a small, Historic town thats about a mile long and plays host to the fabled North Shore and the "Seven Mile Miracle " Global surfing mecca. Things get quiet around 9pm as all shops and food establishments shut down around that time. It is a very safe community but guest are urged to take precautions with valuables.
Notes: We are an Eco-Friendly home. We ask that you be energy and waste conservative. We recommend a reusable water bottle - we provide filtered water for the house. If you don't want to travel with one we have one you can borrow. We like to compost all fruit and veggie waste and provide a container for that when you cook. We also have a huge clothesline - feel free to use it for your beach towels and swimsuits, and even for your freshly washed laundry. Smoking outside only and away from windows. Most homes in Hawaii are open air and do not have climate control. Every room has large double sash windows and ceiling fans. Air conditioning is available in August and September only with a window unit.
Transit: Guests must have their own transportation. Parking is onsite.
Access: There will be access to Wifi and a wireless printer, a full kitchen, washer and dryer, gardens of fresh organic fruits and vegetables in the yard, an occasional night time fire pit, bicycles, and loving cats and dogs. We have bath and beach towels for you so you don't need to pack them. Since we have two rooms available please check with us on availability even if we show unavailable on the calendar.

Reviewer: Dawn
Comments: Tai and Jen were awesome hosts! They were were incredibly welcoming and knew exactly when to chat with us about local tips and when to give us our privacy and space, as needed. They are the epitome of true Hawaiian locals- they have a large garden, cook fresh fish, and exude the true aloha spirit! Their house sits on a beautiful, lush space and is walking distance to all our favorite spots in Haleiwa town.

Comments: Great place, great people, clean and relaxed. Super close to all (Website hidden by Airbnb) easy walk anywhere. This is where I'll be staying next time I'm on the North Shore.

Reviewer: Samantha
Comments: I couldn't have asked for a better experience than the one I had with Jen and Tai. They were so incredibly hospitable and welcomed me not only into their home but into their lives. Their house is beautiful, clean, and spacious, with a gorgeous bathroom and perfect bedroom. I stayed there for over a month and it was exactly what I was looking for. Jen and Tai have pets, but my allergies weren't bothered at all the entire time I was there, even when I cuddled with the dogs! The location was absolutely perfect, since you're right in Haleiwa town, but also off the main road enough that it feels private and secure. Jen and Tai will make you feel like an insider instead of a tourist and will make sure you know the best things to see/do/eat while in Hawaii! They know everything and everyone in the area so they will take care of you. I will definitely be recommending Jen and Tai to any friends heading to Hawaii, and will absolutely be contacting them next time I am visiting!!

Comments: Tai & Jen were wonderful and so accommodating. The place was very clean, and the outdoor shower was amazing! The location is near restaurants and shops. You will for sure need a car to get around. But loved their place.

Comments: Wer wirklich etwas über das Leben auf Hawaii erfahren möchte, ist bei Jen und Tai genau richtig. Warmherzig und großzügig haben die beiden mich an ihrem Leben teilhaben lassen. Besonders spannend war zu sehen, wie ein nachhaltiger Lebensstil auch in Hawaii möglich ist. Das Zimmer ist - wie das ganze Haus - liebevoll eingerichtet, die Außendusche zwischen Orchideen und Anthurien ein Erlebnis. Natürlich ist alles sauber. Das Haus ist ein renoviertes altes Plantagenhaus in netter Nachbarschaft. Strand, Shops, Restaurants, Bars, alles ist fußläufig erreichbar. Trotz der tollen Lage mitten in Haleiwa liegt das Haus ruhig, etwas abseits der Hauptstraße. Es gibt keinen Durchgangsverkehr und Touristen verirren sich kaum hierher. Das Haus ist nichts für Tierhaarallergiker und man muss Hunde wirklich mögen.

Comments: Tai and Jen are a lovely couple. They were welcoming and helpful with tips for things to do/places to go. I stayed in a clean, pretty, quiet bedroom and really enjoyed the outdoor shower. Nice location within walking distance of shops, restaurants, and beach. They are very generous. They made sure ahead of time that I am comfortable with rescue dogs, which I am.

Reviewer: Diana
Comments: If you want to spend a great time on Oahu, living a real nice and relaxed Hawaiin Life at the north shore you have to go to Tai and Jen! There are great hosts, providing a lot of local information, are friendly and keeping a nice balance of spending time together and giving you freedom. You have to be pet friendly, as they live together with 3 dogs (Taco is barking quite a lot, but a lovely dog) and a few cats. We would always come back.
