No idea this place existed until a friend suggested we rsvp spaces and spend the day bbqing and watching polo. It was the best experience. We set up three tents together, foldable tables, chairs and the bbq grill. It was so nice and cool with no bugs since the wind was blowing pretty hard. We munched our way through the entire match with our own picnic foods. The kids played on the white sand and swam on the beach. The polo match was pretty intense and there is a halftime where you can mash divots. There's a porta potty on rsvp side and trash cans. Only thing that we lacked was running water. Wish they had a hose or a faucet. Next time we bring jugs of water to help wash up after a dip in the ocean. Definitely a must for everyone!

Tiare is an A+ horseback riding instructor with tons of experience in many riding disciplines and…read moreespecially polo. They also have great horse trainers! The facility is ocean front and also offers a few coveted spaces for horse boarding which is great because you can go on a stroll afterwards and get gorgeous ocean views and sunsets after your riding lessons. They take students of all ages and experience but want you to be serious about riding. Total plus is that it's in Waialua so you get to avoid traffic any day of the week and you get that horsey community country feel. It's like taking a vacation to the Big Island for the day. Only thing is they have limited space.

North Shore Stables has a large sign at the beginning of the stable and will take you to a parking lot with no pavement. Our group had 15 people and I would say this was a perfect activity to celebrate for larger groups. Our tour guide, Brandy, was excellent in guiding us through the stable which was accompanied by large fields, feeding farm animals (goats, cattle), seeing beach views, and riding through two tracks for ATV enjoyment. The tour and tracking was about an hour. Be prepared to get dusty and dirty, but still definitely a worthwhile experience if you're looking for an activity in the northern part of Oahu. Thank you, again, Brandy and to the rest of the North Shore Stables team!

Kualoa Ranch was one of the highlights of our Hawaii trip. We booked the 2-hour UTV raptor tour,…read moreand it was such a fun way to experience the ranch's incredible scenery. The route takes you through some breathtaking landscapes, with panoramic views of the Ko'olau Mountains and the ocean. It's easy to see why so many movies and TV shows have been filmed here - every stop feels like a postcard. Along the way, our guides, Iven and Van, were knowledgeable, friendly, and always happy to answer questions while sharing stories about the ranch's history and famous filming locations. A couple tips: it gets very hot during the summer, and the trails can be quite dusty, so wear clothes you don't mind getting dirty. It's all part of the adventure! Overall, this was an unforgettable experience and one I'd highly recommend to anyone visiting Oahu. Just be sure to book your tour early, as popular time slots tend to sell out in advance.

Sonya, the owner, was patient and caring and slowly introduced Rose to her horse, calmly reassuring and explaining throughout the whole process. In no time, Rose was up and riding with Sonya and Angie (the Intern) on each side of the horse, encouraging and engaging her during the ride. Rose felt safe, confident and exhilarated - she can't wait to ride again! The horses are gentle and well cared for, the grounds are clean and neat with ample parking and the area is beautiful - the whole experience is serene and therapeutic. I highly recommend Heart Horses to all!

Prior to our vacation, I signed up all three children for surf lessons ahead of time. The process…read morewas uncomplicated, my confirmation arrived via email within minutes, and all was set. The day arrived for the lesson and the kids were super eager. After meeting their instructors, we took a short walk to the beach. Everything was explained to us. We were all on the same page as far as making sure the kids understood what they're going to do, and my apprehension was put at ease. The two older kids (ages 9 and 8) were totally having the time of their lives. They rode tandem with the instructors and were surfing as if they'd been doing this forever by the end of their session. The little one (6 years old) had a little bit of a mishap. As he paddled out to ride a wave with his instructor, he wiped out - waves all over him, surfboard in the air, exactly what I had been anguishing over. My son and his instructor both recovered. The instructor tried getting him back on the board, but he wasn't having it anymore. The instructor brought him back to us to shore. We tried coaxing him back to surf, but fear already set in. Even my daughter's instructor tried getting him on the board with them, but he refused. Nevertheless, the experience was really cool. The instructors were relaxed and patient. They gave us great photo opportunities. The best part was the two older children were inspired to go out and surf some more.

We live here and often have visitors, we thought we found our spot to bring friends but this time we were wrong. 1. When I called, they said they were short staffed so they would only be open 11-3, totally get it. It's a small business and would love to support them but thought that was weird to preface a customer with " yeah you can rent but we are barley open today" 2. When we got there Roger seemed accommodating, we rented for 2 hours, but he asked us to return closer to 3 because he had to bring guests back to their hotel. We didn't need or want the extra hour but again obliged to help a small business we had young children with us and knew they wouldn't hold interest, plus it was pretty windy for the little dudes. 3. When my husband went to bring the items back Roger was 40 minutes late! So we waited an extra hour to turn in the rentals and then an additional 40 minutes waiting on Roger. 4. Then i realized my card was charged an extra $54.00. Attempted to communicate with the business via their 2 phone numbers and email... took a week after countless voicemails etc. 5. When i finally got a call back they said they undercharged us and fixed their mistake. Fine, understood. However, a notification would have been nice since i signed for the amount upon rental agreement. I just found this whole thing so unprofessional and disorganized. I was pretty upset we had to intention of doing business here again and sending others.
