Kaneohe Bay Retreat – 2 BR / 2.5 BA | $3,900 + Utilities & GET (GET roughly $184) | Unfurnished (Except Adjustable Bed) - Great for Military

Location: Quiet... street off Lilipuna Drive overlooking Kaneohe Bay

Wake up each morning to sweeping panoramic views of Kaneohe Bay — sunrises, sailboats, and the ever-changing colors of the windward coast.

Perched high above its neighbors, this home offers the feeling of a private treehouse or mountaintop penthouse, surrounded by tropical greenery and sky. From its wrap-around lanais, you’ll look straight across the bay to MCBH Kaneohe Bay.

Highlights:

2 Bedrooms
2.5 Bathrooms (incl tub and a giant shower)
~1,800 sq ft (total space; 1 room reserved for owner storage)
Split A/C in Primary Bedroom
1 Dedicated Parking Space + Easy Street Parking
3/4 Wrap-Around Upper Lanai (600 + sq ft of outdoor living)
Large Covered Lower Lanai Below Home (~800 sq ft – great for entertaining or parking)
½-Acre Lot with Hillside Privacy and Tropical Ambiance
Pets Allowed (see terrain notes below)

This residence is part of a larger three-bedroom structure, but one bedroom is reserved for the owner’s belongings. Otherwise, you’ll enjoy the full home — a spacious living room that opens to panoramic lanais, an airy kitchen, two comfortable bedrooms, and a separate guest ½ bath.

Primary Suite: A/C unit, en suite bath, and a queen-size adjustable bed frame

Second Bedroom: Full bath just outside the door

The home comes unfurnished, except for:

Adjustable bed frame (queen)
Curved flat-screen TV + stand
Curved computer monitor


Lifestyle & Setting:

This home feels like a private penthouse hideaway — quiet, breezy, and secluded.
You’re minutes from Windward Mall, Kailua Beach, H-3, and scenic Windward Oahu hikes.


Perfect for:

Military tenants (near MCBH)

Couples seeking extra space & privacy

Two professionals sharing a home

Nature lovers who value light, air, and views

Not recommended for young children due to rock drop-offs.
Pets welcome, but owners should mind the terrain.


Owner Note:

I’m the owner and will be away for extended work projects on the mainland and abroad.
Rather than leave my home vacant, I’d prefer to rent to respectful tenants who can enjoy it as much as I do.

One room is kept for storage, but I will not visit without notice. A local friend helps manage the property.

I value clear communication and am open to multi-year arrangements for the right fit.


Outdoor Spaces:

Wrap-around lanai with panoramic bay views (800 + sq ft)
Huge covered entertainment area beneath the home (~800 sq ft)
Small yard and terraced side areas for plants or pets
Steep hillside lot providing privacy and cool breezes


What to Know For Transparency:

Steep Driveway & Stairs
One of the steepest driveways on O‘ahu! Most tenants choose to park below and walk up the roughly 90 stairs to the main level (great exercise with a rewarding view at the top).

With a strong 4WD vehicle, you could drive to the covered area beneath the house (2-car capacity), but street or lower parking is recommended.

Maintenance & Condition Notes (Reflected in Pricing):

-Some deck planks on the lanai need repair; certain sections not usable
-Interior painting recommended (but not available for Nov/Dec move-in)
-Kitchen cooktop is fully functional but visibly aged and will likely be replaced.
-Steep terrain has minor non-critical rock movement from past storms

The home remains safe and comfortable for daily living, and these details are already reflected in the rental rate.
