Less than 5 miles away.:
Haleiwa town is a combination of Hawaiian country charm and hippiedom. You will find Balinese goods, Brazilian bikinis, fresh leis, local art work, dress shops, black pearls, skateboard and surf shops representing the Hawaiian style and much more. Restaurants are casual and geared to early dining. The Coffee Gallery cafe serves fresh Hawaiian coffee and Celestial Foods is the place to find locally grown organics. You can also find fresh produce at The Country Market on Saturday mornings at Sunset Beach Elementary School (less than a mile away)....Our property is central to some of the most beautiful beaches in the world stretching from Haleiwa to Waimea Bay to Sunset Beach and more. Waimea Falls Park, across from the bay, is an 1800 acre nature park and you can swim to the water falls....At the top of the Park on the hill you will find Puu O Mahuka Heiau, Oahu's largest temple that covers nearly 2 acres. 'Today it is still recognized and protected as a historical landmark.'

Dance classes begin around 10:30 am, drumming class if right before. There is a ten dollar charge for the dance class.
Concerning children:
Due to the use of large panes of glass in the doors, concrete stairways, high balconies and stone ledges, the house may not be suitable for young children. However older children will find the garden delightful. On the property there are areas not yet tamed, wonderful for exploring; there is a sacred grove of gnarly old trees (beware of thorns), rocks and boulders for climbing, flowers for gazing, all alive for the imaginative. Layout of the bedrooms at the south (master suite) and north (blue suite and green room)ends of the house extends privacy. A floorplan can be viewed at www.HouseOfSacredCircles.com.
