Tropical North Shore Island Nature Retreat! 2.5 blocks to the beach & famous surf breaks. Close to historic Haleiwa town & many other gorgeous North Shore beaches & world-class surfing!
Rental is a 2-Story Yurt with a generous 1500+ square foot open-concept floor plan. Sleeps up to 11 people. Features a kitchen & full bathroom amenities. The hot water in the bathroom is glitchy, sorry, but there is an additional outdoor shower available with hot water near the yurt. Some of the fabric windows on the yurt do not close properly and the windows do not have screens.
Description
This unique 1500 square foot glamping space features 2-stories of unique living space. The 4 bedroom open concept floor plan features 6 beds, a kitchen and a bathroom attached to the yurt, and a hot outdoor shower near the front of the yurt. The first story has the kitchen, living space with 2 pull-out memory foam sofa sleepers (one double and one queen), and a bedroom with a queen bed. The second story has 3 open-concept bedrooms, one with a queen bed, one with a full bed, and one with a twin bed and loveseat couch. The yurt can sleep up to 11 people. Please note that there are no doors to any of the open-concept bedrooms. The bedrooms just have partition walls with open walkways between the rooms (see pictures) and no bedroom doors. Please remember this is a yurt, so there is minimal framing, no drywall, and all rooms are connected & open, except for the bathroom which does have a door. No drywall on the walls means that electrical boxes and wires are exposed, which is why we disclose that this is an unsafe space for children & infants.
This glamping yurt is located on a 2+ acre gated country estate with many mature fruit trees. You are welcome to eat from our orchards as long as you leave some fruit for others to enjoy, too. Located in a country setting with typical country sounds like dogs, roosters, road noise, and the sounds of big waves breaking during the winter! If there is an emergency, there will be sirens from the emergency vehicles, and the neighborhood dogs will howl and bark because the sirens hurt their ears, but once the sirens pass, they will stop.
The property entrance is a large driveway gate that you will need to put a code into a padlock & manually push open and close behind you every time you enter & exit the property. There are other long-term tenants & dogs on the property.
The hot water heater inside the attached yurt bathroom is a bit glitchy, sorry. It works, but needs to be reset often. The hot water is only available in the attached yurt bathroom. There is no hot water in the yurt kitchen. The hot water system is an on-demand outdoor camping propane heater, & the pilot light can be a bit finnicky. If the water does not stay hot or is not getting hot at all, please message the host immediately so we help you reset the heater & explain how to re-ignite the pilot light. There is also an outdoor shower near the laundry that has very hot water which you can use anytime.
The yurt is older & has some issues. Most screens on the windows are ripped, broken, or missing altogether. Some of the windows also do not fully close, so rain can come in through the gaps. We have clips & clamps on the fabric windows to keep them shut. The windows do not have any glass: they are made of fabric with velcro closures, so they are safe. If rain comes in through the upstairs windows, it will affect both levels with rainwater coming inside. There is also an approximately 8 foot section where the roof leaks at the wall near the front door during heavy rain. It is important that you do not put anything in that area as it will get wet! This area is left empty on purpose, so do not put belongings there or move any yurt furniture or other items there. The front burner of the stove is faulty so we have included an electric hot plate for you to use in place of this problematic burner.
If you are unfamiliar with a yurt, please note that this is a wooden deck structure with canvas fabric walls & roof. To access the second story, you will need to climb up and down a spiral staircase with narrow footspace on the steps, and it could be dangerous for children or adults with difficulty walking or climbing stairs.
The yurt is not air-tight, so there is no air conditioning available. The space can heat up quickly during warm weather, during the afternoon on sunny days, & especially in the summer & fall months. The skylight dome at the top of the yurt creates a convection which pulls heat out the top of the yurt. In order for the hot air to go out the top, you will need to open all the windows to cool the yurt down. You must close all windows every time you leave the yur, though, because there is no awning or roof over them, & if it rains, water will come in the yurt and get everything inside the yurt wet. Once you return, simply open the windows & the skylight dome will pull all the hot air out the top & bring cool air up through the floor & windows!
Being unsealed, there are spaces for geckos, lizards, flies, roaches, spiders, ants, mosquitoes, rodents, centipedes, scorpions, termites, & other critters to come in, especially if you leave food out. If you would be upset by seeing critters in your space, then please do not book this yurt. If bugs come in, they will also defecate in the unit. If you see little brown & white poops, these are gecko or lizard poops. Geckos & lizards eat the bugs, so if you see the brown/white poops, that means they are eating the bugs! Some critters also come in and hide as is their nature, like roaches, lizards, geckos, ants, etc. If these critters hide in the furniture, they can get trapped & perish, so you may see deceased critters. Our cleaner does clean the unit prior to each reservation, however, if critters are hiding in the furniture, the cleaners will not be able to find or remove them. Please remember this is a camping nature rental, & critters are part of nature.
Additionally, being essentially a tent, the space is also not weatherproof. In wind or rain events, water can come inside the yurt, especially if you do not completely close all the windows. Also, when it rains, the yard gets muddy. This is a 'nature' camping rental. If you would be upset by getting a little wet & dirty during rainy weather when it gets muddy outside, this may not be the right rental for you.
This country neighborhood also has many dogs & chickens, so please be aware that you will hear dogs & chickens during the day & night. The neighborhood dogs will bark if there is another dog or a suspicious person walking through the neighborhood. Additionally, like all dogs do everywhere, the neighborhood dogs bark & howl every time there is an emergency vehicle siren driving through town. Dogs' hearing is better than humans' so they can hear distant sirens that we cannot hear. If you would be upset by hearing neighborhood dogs barking & howling at ems sirens at night, or roosters crowing from 3 in the morning, then please do not book this yurt.
Please do not bring any animals to this property. There is an outdoor dog on property who lives in the yard who loves people but does not like other dogs. For everyone's safety, please do not bring animals to this property! Our cleaner also uses essential oils for cleaning the inside of the unit which are safe for human beings of all ages, but these essential oils are known to be toxic & fatal to dogs. The entire property including inside of this space and all outdoor areas of the property an unsafe environment for any animals of any kind to come to.
You will need to select the travel insurance when making your reservation to insure your stay & get any type of refund should your travel plans change. The host is unable to provide any refunds in the event that you need to cancel your reservation for any reason. In the event of a utility outage, the host is not responsible for any loss of utility usage or inability to access amenities including water, hot water, electricity, wifi, fans, cooking equipment, coffee maker, lights, ability to charge your devices, etc. No refunds will be issued for utility loss due to weather or other unforseen circumstances from the utility companies.
Please do not book this space if you are not comfortable spending your vacation the way we have described the experience above. By reserving this space, you agree that you have read the description in full, accept the unit "as is" and will not complain about any issues disclosed herein.
House Rules
▪︎ No animals allowed. There are animals living on the property who love all people but do not get along with unfamiliar animals they do not know. Do not bring any animals of any kind to this property as it will risk injuries & lives.
▪︎ No smoking inside, outside or anywhere on the property. Any smoking must be done off the property on the street.
▪︎ Absolutely No Electric Vehicle Charging anywhere on this property. The electric system is older and is UNSAFE for any EV charging. Do not risk lives by attempting to jerry-rig an unsafe extension cord charging port for your EV. You could start an electrical fire & kill people!

▪︎ No events of any kind allowed anywhere on the property.
▪︎ Quiet hours are from 10pm until 7am every night.
▪︎ Do not move the furniture around. The area near the door which is empty is empty on purpose because that is where the yurt leaks during rain. Do not rearrange our furniture or move things to the leak area where they can get wet and therefore damaged. Our cleaner is petite and the heavier furniture items like couches outweigh her. If we have to hire movers to move back the furniture, there will be a minimum $200 moving charge to move back the furniture to where it belongs, and any damages to the yurt or furniture will be charged to you as well.
- "We really enjoyed our time at this yurt. It was so peaceful. It was like staying in a very spacious treehouse and we just loved it. I really enjoyed cooking in the circular kitchen, which was well-equipped with everything we needed, nothing we didn't need. Great location close to the beach and north shore activities. The fresh mangos and avocados we got to enjoy daily from the host's organic orchards were an added bonus! We will be back!" - "We did north shore Spartan Obstacle races and the close Yurt stay added to our adventure. "

- "Really fun and unique set-up and experience. And one of the most economical options for staying on the Big Island." - "The tent was furnished with charm & comfortable; the kitchen, and the shower/toilet building are rustic and clean, well-crafted and tended to beautifully. The many outdoor sitting areas are inviting and cozy. Hearing the ocean, seeing the stars at night, and being near the farm animals is delightful and serene. I am telling everyone I know about this piece of heaven and look forward to returning soon."

We loved being around the animals, cooking in the well equipped outdoor kitchen, listening to the birds as we watched the sun come up. The owners were friendly and helpful and our glamping tent was comfortable. They even had games and beach equipment to use. I hope to go again in the future."

Escape to this Tropical North Shore Island Nature Rental Retreat! 2.5 blocks to the beach & famous surf breaks. Rental is a 2-Story Yurt with a generous 1500+ square foot open-concept floor plan. Sleeps up to 11 people. Features kitchen & full bathroom amenities. Close to historic Haleiwa town & many other gorgeous North Shore beaches & world-class surfing!
This unique 1500 square foot glamping space features 2-stories of unique living space. The 4 bedroom open concept floor plan features 6 beds, a kitchen and a bathroom attached to the yurt, and a hot outdoor shower near the front of the yurt. The first story has the kitchen, living space with 2 pull-out sofa sleepers (one double & one queen), and a separate bedroom with a queen bed. The second story has 3 open-concept bedrooms, one with a queen bed, one with a full bed, and one with a twin bed and loveseat couch. The yurt can sleep up to 11 people. Please note that there are no doors to any of the open-concept bedrooms. All bedrooms have only partition walls with open walkways between the rooms (see pictures) and no bedroom doors. The hot water in the bathroom is glitchy, sorry, but there is an additional outdoor shower available with hot water near the yurt. There is no dining room, but the bar counter top has 4 stools. Some of the fabric windows on the yurt do not close properly and the windows do not have screens. Please remember this is a yurt, so there is minimal framing, no drywall, and all rooms are connected & open, except for the bathroom which does have a closeable door. No drywall on the walls means that electrical boxes and wires are exposed, which is why we disclose that this is an unsafe space for children & infants.
This glamping yurt is located on a 2+ acre gated country estate with many mature fruit trees. You are welcome to eat from our orchards as long as you leave some fruit for others to enjoy, too. Located in a country setting with typical country sounds like dogs, roosters, road noise, & the sounds of big waves breaking during the winter! If there is an emergency, there will be sirens from the emergency vehicles, and the neighborhood dogs will howl and bark until the sirens pass.
The property entrance is a large driveway gate that you will need to put a code into a padlock & manually push open and close behind you every time you enter & exit the property. There are other long-term tenants & large dogs on the property.
The hot water heater inside the attached yurt bathroom is a bit glitchy. It works, but needs to be reset often. The hot water is only available in the attached yurt bathroom. There is no hot water in the yurt kitchen. The hot water system is an on-demand outdoor camping propane heater, & the pilot light can go out often. If the water does not stay hot or is not getting hot at all, please message the host immediately so we help you reset the heater & explain how to re-ignite the pilot light. There is also an outdoor shower near the laundry that has very hot water which you can use anytime.
The yurt is older & has some issues. Most screens on the windows are ripped, broken, or missing altogether. Some of the windows also do not fully close, so rain can come in through the gaps. We have clips & clamps on the fabric windows to keep them shut. The windows do not have any glass: they are made of fabric with velcro closures, so they are safe if broken. If rain comes in through the upstairs windows, it will affect both levels with rainwater coming inside. There is also an approximately 8 foot section where the roof leaks at the wall near the front door during heavy rain. It is important that you do not put anything in that area as it will get wet! This area is left empty on purpose, so do not put belongings there or move any yurt furniture or other items there. The front left burner of the stove is faulty so we have included an electric hot plate for you to use in place of this problematic burner.
If you are unfamiliar with a yurt, please note that this is a wooden deck structure with canvas fabric walls & roof. To access the second story, you will need to climb up and down a spiral staircase with narrow footspace on the steps, and it could be dangerous for children or adults with difficulty walking or climbing stairs.
The yurt is not air-tight, so there is no air conditioning available. The space can heat up quickly during warm weather, during the afternoon on sunny days, & especially in the summer & fall months. The skylight dome at the top of the yurt creates a convection which pulls heat out the top of the yurt. In order for the hot air to go out the top, you will need to open all the windows to cool the yurt down. You must close all windows every time you leave the yur, though, because there is no awning or roof over them, & if it rains, water will come in the yurt and get everything inside the yurt wet. Once you return, simply open the windows & the skylight dome will pull all the hot air out the top & bring cool air up through the floor & windows!
Being unsealed, there are spaces for geckos, lizards, flies, roaches, spiders, ants, mosquitoes, rodents, centipedes, scorpions, termites, & other critters to come in, especially if you leave food out. If you would be upset by seeing critters in your space, then please do not book this yurt. If bugs come in, they will also defecate in the unit. If you see little brown & white poops, these are gecko or lizard poops. Geckos & lizards eat the bugs, so if you see the brown/white poops, that means they are eating the bugs! Some critters also come in and hide as is their nature, like roaches, lizards, geckos, ants, etc. If these critters hide in the furniture, they can get trapped & perish, so you may see deceased critters. Our cleaner does clean the unit prior to each reservation, however, if critters are hiding in the furniture, the cleaners will not be able to find or remove them. Please remember this is a camping nature rental, & critters are part of nature.
Additionally, being essentially a tent, the space is also not weatherproof. In wind or rain events, water can come inside the yurt, especially if you do not completely close all the windows. Also, when it rains, the yard gets muddy. This is a 'nature' camping rental. If you would be upset by getting a little wet & dirty during rainy weather when it gets muddy outside, this may not be the right rental for you.
This country neighborhood also has many dogs & chickens, so please be aware that you will hear dogs & chickens during the day & night. The neighborhood dogs will bark if there is another dog or a suspicious person walking through the neighborhood. Additionally, like all dogs do everywhere, the neighborhood dogs bark & howl every time there is an emergency vehicle siren driving through town. Dogs' hearing is better than humans' so they can hear distant sirens that we cannot hear. If you would be upset by hearing neighborhood dogs barking & howling at ems sirens at night, or roosters crowing from 3 in the morning, then please do not book this yurt.
Please do not bring any animals to this property. There is an outdoor dog on property who lives in the yard who loves people but does not like other dogs. For everyone's safety, please do not bring animals to this property! Our cleaner also uses essential oils for cleaning the inside of the unit which are safe for human beings of all ages, but these essential oils are known to be toxic & fatal to dogs. The entire property including inside of this space and all outdoor areas of the property an unsafe environment for any animals of any kind to come to.
You will need to select the travel insurance when making your reservation to insure your stay & get any type of refund should your travel plans change. The host is unable to provide any refunds in the event that you need to cancel your reservation for any reason. In the event of a utility outage, the host is not responsible for any loss of utility usage or inability to access amenities including water, hot water, electricity, wifi, fans, cooking equipment, coffee maker, lights, ability to charge your devices, etc. No refunds will be issued for utility loss due to weather or other unforseen circumstances from the utility companies.
Please do not book this space if you are not comfortable spending your vacation the way we have described the experience above. By reserving this space, you agree that you have read the description in full, accept the unit "as is" and will not complain about any issues disclosed herein.

Do not rearrange our furniture or move things to the leak area where they can get wet and therefore damaged. Our cleaner is petite and the heavier furniture items like couches outweigh her. If we have to hire movers to move back the furniture, there will be a minimum $200 moving charge to move back the furniture to where it belongs, and any damages to the yurt or furniture will be charged to you as well.
