Barber's Point and ITT and Beach Cottages

"Very much enjoyed our stay here, we was right on the beach and my grandson loved waking up to beach every morning. The only thing I didn't like was there was only 1 gate key which made it hard to get in amd out at time's."

"The cottage we stayed in was 1702 and it's only steps from the beach! Amazing to be that close! No problems checking in etc. The cottage is clean, nice updated kitchen, plenty of towels, plus the washer/dryer is super handy. The sofa & other living room furniture is close to needing to be replaced just due to lots of usage but we didn't sit inside very much so it wasn't an issue. The cottages are in a remote area that is super dark at night driving out there, but there is a gate to the entrance which is nice. We very much enjoyed shopping & eating in the Kapolei area - tons of variety and options."

"For the most part, things are good. Location is fairly private but a bit too close to industrial stuff. The cabin interior is OK. The one drawback is that there is only one bathroom, and the sink has no vanity/countertop space. The beach is beautiful, however, not conducive to swimming because of all the rocks and the steep bank."

"Be aware that there is no option to check-in on a Saturday for any of the beach cottages. If you arrive on Oahu on Saturday, you have to stay elsewhere for the first night. It’s unfortunate that check-in cannot somehow be coordinated somewhere on Barbers Point on a Saturday."

"Your OCEANFRONT tranquil, fully stocked, beach cottage! **Extremely affordable, well maintained, MWR employees emulating the Aloha spirit, personable maintenance staff, quiet, tranquil, generous space (sq. footage)** Date of stay: 15-21DEC 2023 Advanced booking; 6 months Unit: 1778A, Nimitz Cove cottage Rates: approximately $150/night with DOD ID Guest count: 2 adults and 2 children Kitchen: Fully stocked Bedrooms/Bath: 2/1 full Linen & Towels: ample Other: 1 washer, 1 dryer great quality; BBQ; dedicated picnic tables; dedicated (2) lawn chairs; wifi present but fast (you’re there for vacation and R&R- detach from society!); TV (1 living room with cable only) I was born and raised on the island of O’ahu, in Makakilo (about 15 mins up the mountain) and I had never stayed here! I am glad that my family and I experienced this together. You can see diamond head/Honolulu from your back porch and immediate walk/access to the beach from the cottage. Less than 1 min walk to your oceanfront access. Growing up, we always came to the public access portion of white plains- which is about a 5-10 min walk from your cottage. The terrain surrounding your cottage is compacted and accessible for those with a wheelchair. However, there is no ramp to access the cottage for those who require it. Our family of 4 truly enjoyed our stay here. We have zero complaints! We were able to detach from society without being significantly far from the essentials and west side activities. We will be returning here for all of our return trip home vacations; you won’t find anything else comparable for the location, price point, and convenience factors. Thank you, MWR staff for all of your hospitality!"
