We first discovered these condos in 2012 when we would homeschool from the beach in front of them because it's almost always swimmable, avoids North Shore traffic, and we could steal their wifi for our online lessons. Since then, they've become a favorite spot for our visiting family to stay for the winter each year. Why? Well, the beach is almost always swimmable, you can come and go and avoid North Shore traffic, and most include free wifi. There's also plenty of free parking in two separate paved lots. The condos themselves are cinder block and run Mauka to Makai with an entrance on each side. Most are one bedroom with two full bathrooms. Some have a second bedroom, usually with a separate entrance as well. The end units are much larger as many are comprised of two units. We've stayed in both buildings, but we prefer the first floor of the front building where you can walk off of your lanai right on to the beach. Safety is, of course, more of a concern on the bottom floors, but we have not had any issues. The buildings are well monitored. Each condo is independently owned, so the interiors are all unique in those that have been upgraded. Also, anything less than 30 days rental is illegal in these buildings. Property amenities include: prime Pacific Ocean front with amazing sunset views, BBQs and tables (although one is always reserved for condo owners and their "happy hour"), outdoor showers and places to rinse your sandy feet, coin operated washers and dryers, bike racks, surf board storage, and well-maintained grounds.

I am torn on my review! We first stayed here 13yrs ago when we got married. Loved the condo we stayed in. But 13yrs later, not much has changed. This unit is in clear need of some major renovations. While the kitchen has some new countertops and cabinets, there are maintenance issues in every room. Now, would that stop me from coming back? Probably not. But I might check out other units. The beach is one of the best. The location is close to everything. If I could buy it, I definitely would.

If you like coronas and getting caught in the rain this the place for you. If you like seeing rainbows and sea turtles galore then this spot is for you! Very laid back place if you like the feeling of living like a local. Great beach front we always stay in 603. Best view of the turtles and ocean. It's peaceful in the morning and at night. During the day near the weekend it gets a little crowded but not too much. Great place to bring kids and for a couples get away. I will say that has a return guest to the same place it's time for a little updating. Wouldn't take much but we noticed the linens and towels were ummmm retired! Lol! Bottom line If you like giant mega resorts, AC, movie channels at your fingertips, maid service & buffets this is NOT the place for you...this place is comfortably modest, clean and super laid back community of residents and guests! There is a Laundry room on site $2 a laid and .25 to dry for 10 minutes so bring your quarters. The property is just a .25 mile walk to downtown Haleiwa where there's great restaurants, shops and fun places to check out!

Just an observation...the employees of this condo is very unprofessional! Overheard the security person or property management swear at people so loud that we can all hear from the beach...what an embarrassment for this establishment!! We'll be making sure to share this story with all locals. Too bad that these type of people and behavior make haoles unwelcomed to the native residents of Hawaii. I'm sure many people have heard the saying, "it's ok to come visit but don't forget to go home"...this guys should just go home. The haole older man who thinks he's above everyone..don't let the locals catch you lol!

Not a lot of sleep to be had here. The beds are not comfy, and currently the fire alarm is going off at 11pm. This is about the sixth time it has gone off tonight. Wth??? The noise from outside is too much. After a long day, sleep is a must. , the condo we stayed in was pretty outdated. The sleeper sofa that is to be used as an extra bed is the most uncomfortable bed I have ever tried to sleep on. The springs pop out, and there is a huge crack down the middle. The only pluses from this place are of course that it is right in front of the beach. So you could walk right out and swim. There were a ton of sea turtles to watch too. It was also very close to town. I would not stay here again.

We had a great stay at Haleiwa surf condos. It was the best time we have ever had with our family. We love the great service and professionalism of the staff. The beach was warm and we have fallen in love with this location. The staff was the best!! Susan Stone with Sterman Realty was so helpful to my husband when I left my IPad. We called her and she was on it. She communicated so wonderfully with my husband I had it in California by Monday. Thank you Susan. We will return and bring the rest of our family.

Inline imageHaleiwa surf condos #210 Owner name: Iris Kahaulelio Number phone: 808-777-8312Property number: 594581 VRBO On Sunday April 3 - Friday April 8 I was staying in her condo. There visiting my fiancé that's station at scholfield army base whom I hadn't seen since Christmas! We get to condo we have 1 bath towel & 2 washcloths for 5 of us! We had to call her for towels (which she only brought sheets) and called because ceiling fans weren't working. The condo has no AC so all windows always open. Had to call her again for towels because she brought sheets that's 2 trips in 2 days. She didn't leave toilet paper, paper towels or trash bags. Which we bought. Then we get a knock on the door water will be shut off day 2 of our stay. She says sorry for inconvenience. Day 2 until Friday we leave we hear next door... Floor sanders. Banging of tools hammers. Chain saw. All kinds of screaming loud power tools right next door! At 8am until 5 pm every single day of our stay! Heard construction workers Hawaiian music blasting from their open windows literally next door to our open windows all day everyday. Construction workers yelling to each other over the power tools. We could not even hear each other talk let alone sleep in or think straight. Owner was aware through Home owners association & it was her responsibility to explain that to me through one of the many conversations we had prior to my arrival. I called her, I texted her, she ignored me-us from tues night until coincidently on Friday after I departed she got back with me to accuse us of smoking in her condo & that I wouldn't get a full refund let alone damage deposit. We smoked where she had told us to smoke. Maybe it was on our clothes. I do not know. But when I complained on & on of the noise that I wanted a refund this was not fare to us she ignore me. The property was Not damaged one bit. Matter fact from 8 to 5 we were not at the property due to the annoying loud construction right next door. We did not get to rest or sleep in at 8am we were woke but loud noise lasted until 5pm. All she said to me was quiet time is 10pm to 8am!!!!!! Then she threaten to email my fiancée chief of commander if I complained!!!!!! Other owners of the other condos there were telling me that she was wrong for this & she knew ahead of time and she should refund our money because that's what they do! With her knowing construction was going to be going on the property it was her responsibility to inform me & she did not. This stay was a waste of money & I have traveled there many times to visit my fiancé but have NEVER experienced anything like this. She ignored me, accused me, then threatened my fiancé. The loud noise was totally unacceptable I had migraines each day & cried everyday because I couldn't go to our condo I worked hard for to rest!! Attached is her saying she was aware of construction, a video from our room, the noise that woke us everyday at 8am, and spiders big spiders everywhere. AGAIN NO damage was done to her property at all. I enjoy condos & usually feel like home but not this stay. She is not willing to refund my money since she failed to inform me it was going to be under construction right next door like she should. It's only right! I worked very hard for that trip to Hawaii as a single mom. Thank you. Cari
