Hickam Air Force Base, Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam vacation rentals

Our family of 5 (with 3 teenagers) enjoyed our stay at this cottage. We love that it was literally a one minute walk to the beach! The beach there is calm so perfect for a little ones, or just a dip in the ocean at the end of the day. The surrounding beaches in the area provide lots of snorkelling and boogie boarding options. It comes with Beach chairs, snorkeling gear, boogie boards, umbrella, coolers. The kitchen had all the utensils, pots & pans, cutlery glassware that you would need. The deck was a great addition to the space as well. Although no view to the ocean, it’s just a great quiet spot to have coffee in the morning and dinner at night. We enjoyed the quiet beach and local vibe. It was a great jumping point to the North Shore and Honolulu as well. Brooke was a great host and gave us everything we needed to feel comfortable!

We had a great time at Jayden’s place and would definitely stay again. Pros: - Parking: very easy in and out. We never had issues finding a spot in the garage no matter the time of day. Instructions were super clear. - Patio: The view is great and we spent a lot of time on the patio at the table and we loved the hanging chair. - Furniture: Very clean and new. Also our hosts were so kind to set up the sofa bed for my eldest son in advance so we could dive right into bed after a long flight! - Gym: my family and I worked out almost every day. It’s a decent sized gym with a nice TV. - Location: It’s only a few blocks from the beach and very close to some of the best restaurants (with prices much more reasonable than the areas closer to the touristy part of Waikiki strip) Cons: - The Building is really on the older side. And the hallways are really out of date. - The unit is great but bathroom floors and carpeting could use updates. But this was totally fine for us.

Peter’s place is excellent for a couple. There’s an outdoor closet on the balcony with everything you would need for the beach. Papaoneone beach is absolutely spectacular. We saw whales in the distance (mid April). Saw turtles frequently. Snorkeled with the turtles. Went crazy with my gopro. The surf breaks rough and this beach is not for kids younger than teenagers in my opinion. The pool is great. Hot tub is small but great. Rec room is great. We played a lot of ping pong. I would rent it again. Only downside is the homeless population on the west side of Oahu combined with the overall poverty of the area. It’s totally third world just north of electric beach and goes all the way up to Yokohama beach. So we weren’t sure how long we could leave our car unattended in the public areas. We felt secure with the gating system at the condo . It’s unbelievable that the state of Hawaii lets the west side go like that. The beaches are gorgeous. Electric beach was the best snorkel we had.
