Welcome to Waipuna Cottage, a charming oceanfront property located on a private secluded estate with panoramic coastline views. This oceanfront home is kept in its originally built state with much of the original hardware and fixtures present. The main bedroom is completely separate from the house. You will need to walk outside to enter the other bedroom. This beautiful cottage features an open living space with sliding, glass doors that open the home to panoramic ocean views. Waipuna can sleep between 2-6 guests comfortably with its 2 bedrooms and 2 baths.
Located in the laid-back and peaceful community of Laie, you will find a warm, welcoming spirit of Aloha. This well-kept, original, beach home is located 5 minutes from the Polynesian Cultural Center, BYU-Hawaii, Laie Hawaii Temple, and local shopping and restaurants. Take a short drive down the coast to some of Oahu's famous North Shore beaches including Hukilau Beach, Sunset Beach, and Waimea Bay, or walk a minute through a private pedestrian access to Pounders Beach. One of the best parts of staying at Waipuna is feeling its historic significance, as detailed in the book, Nimitz at Ease, which recounts that Fleet Admiral Chester W. Nimitz spent every weekend of the war on the property recuperating from the enormous pressures of winning the war in the Pacific.

Going to sleep and waking up to the sound of the ocean was such a neat experience. Short walk to a pretty empty beach which we really enjoyed. We loved it and hope to bring our grandkids to the property some day. Appreciated the "Old Hawaiian" feel of the property. Thank you for sharing your beautiful property with us.

This house was wonderful! It’s location was perfect and the sliding doors made it extra special. We loved that we had the chance to enjoy the yard as well as the private beach access. It’s close to so many great restaurants and local shops. My husband and I hope to come back to this house very soon!

Property was perfect for our family wedding at the Kualoa Ranch and was convenient for all the north shore activities. Being on the ocean and seeing beautiful sunrises every morning was amazing. There was plenty of room inside and out for the grandkids to run around and having access to the beach was perfect.

This is a great place if you want to enjoy a peaceful and relaxing vacation looking at the ocean and mountains (at the same time). It is not luxurious (in the hotel sense) but it is comfortable, open and airy, and the location is a rare find. Mahalo!

Perfect. No other word can describe the experience we had at the Waipuna House. It gives you a true Hawaiian vacation that allows you to enjoy everything Oahu has to offer. Only advice I would give is to add a projector and screen for nighttime entertainment. Aloha and Mahalo

Report from our stay--
We should have been told what shape the house was in. We were never told it was as run down as it was
The view was stunning
The house was not
I would put $100,000 into it before renting it again
De mold it, deep clean it, windows and screens cleaned, update bathrooms, floors, new plush rugs, update furniture, nice adirondack chairs on back yard instead of crappy vinyl white ones we had to find and clean in order to use...,.
And then.... update and deep clean house every year
Every towel washed before anyone uses- every time someone rents
We are asking for money back.....
We were disappointed in the shape of the home we rented - it was worth $150 a night
(if even that)
We will expect our deposit back plus the excess back from as if home was $150 a nite
We should have been told the house was run down and needing a deep clean, and
de molding
We were stuck after getting there and not being able to find anything else to rent on the ocean
Please respond to my claims
Asap -
we were always on time with every payment and left this home much better than we found it
Our complaint is that we were never told about the shape or condition of the home
The pictures told a much nicer story
And we should have been warned!!
We did appreciate that Katrina brought over some extra fans, a toaster that worked, and spray for bugs
Thank you for that gesture
Sincerely
Rena Redmon,
Christopher Redmon

Great location, the Polynesian Cultural Center was about a block away! It was great to open up the back wall and watch the ocean!!
