We are nestled in the lush tropical area of Kaneohe Hawaii on the main island of Oahu overlooking beautiful Kaneohe Bay.  We are centrally located to beaches, attractions, and shopping.  Our location is key to your enjoyment experience.  The north shore surfing area of Haleiwa is a short drive to the north and Honolulu and Waikiki are a short drive to the south. 

Central to our location is the world famous Kailua Beach and several state parks.  Also close by are the Pali Lookout, Valley of the Temples, Polynesian Cultural Center, fantastic dining (luxury or casual) and several spots offering incredible, diving, snorkeling, hiking, biking and kayaking.  The drive on the Kam [Kamehameha] Highway from our location to either the north or south offers some of the most breathtaking views in the world.

We help our guest find the right places, be they are on the beaten path, or off the beaten path, we'll help you experience Hawaii touring in a most pleasurable way.  You'll know the hot spots, the cool spots, and the secret spots, sometimes, all in one day.  You're friends and family will want you to tell them where to go when they come to Hawaii, that's how much you will know after a stay with Bay View Retreats...

Bay View Retreats is very conveniently located, yet off the beaten path and in a tranquil and peaceful setting.  You can travel like a tourist, or at Bay View Retreats you can feel like a local.
