Access the Pu'u Hapapa trail from KoleKole Pass. Trailhead up to Pu'u Hapapa is not marked, but it's easy to spot on the left side of the field clearing just before the KoleKole lookout. The short but steep climb up is worth it.
Short climb to Upper Makua Caves is worth the trek to the northwest part of Oahu. Park in lot just past mile marker 17 off of Farrington Highway. Trailhead is right next to the speed limit sign across the street.

Condo worked out great. Great location right on the beach, clean and well stocked. On-site management (Kim) was very responsive whenever we had questions. The homeless camps in the area were a bit of a downer but all n all a great stay.

Ka Makana Ali'i - The Center for West Oahu
Even though this beach is a little tricky to get to because it's on the same location as the Paradise Cove Luau, it's actually open to the public! But while you're at it, might as well go to the Paradise Cove Luau. It was my first luau, and was worth every moment. #LifeAtExpedia

Ko Olina Golf Club

Enjoy a round of golf in Ko ʻOlina at Ko Olina Golf Club. Wander through the beautiful beaches and seaside in this family-friendly area.

Ko Olina Golf Club
Ko Olina is my favorite golf course on the island. Nice driving range available to practice before you play. The greens and fairwarys are always well maintained and enjoyable. There are fabulous water features that make some holes more challenging and fun. All golf carts come with a GPS and water bottles. The pro shop staff are very helpful and friendly. The pro shop has everything you need in case you forgot something or want to go home with something with a cute ladybug logo. Don't forget Roy's at the 19th hole! Great place to relax with good food and drinks after a day of golfing heaven ⛳

Kunia Camp is a step back in time. It's a historic plantation village with the vast majority of its houses intact. A lot of the homes are not in good shape but Kunia is still a working agricultural community. Nothing Disney about this place.
