Nice place. Upper loft suitable for kids who want to climb a ladder to get to it. TV remote batteries had to be replaced. No garbage bags that fit the kitchen can. Owner very helpful but contact limited to VRBO messaging. Very nice pool. Parking a little tight. Wouldnot hesitate to stay there again.

Amazing Oceanfront Stay

Everything about our stay here was perfect. All of the necessary information was timely provided ahead of check-in and getting into the apartment could not have been easier. We had been in Honolulu for business for a couple of days and this location was such a welcome reprieve to the earlier crowds. The apartment was incredibly comfortable, very clean, and had everything we needed to prepare a breakfast and coffee in the morning. We absolutely loved sitting at the table on the landing and watching the waves crash against the seawall. Also had an amazing early morning walk along the water watching the sunrise. We didn't get a chance to use the pool, but the space looked beautiful and welcoming. I would absolutely stay here again!

Great place

This is a lovely property in a lovely quiet location. The place is super clean and the owners are very kind. It has a very comfortable king bed and my teenager slept up in the loft. It has 2 balconies, one facing the ocean. The home is just steps from a private ocean side area. Because of the rocks you can't get into the water here but there is plenty of sand to relax in. Town is just 10 minutes away.

Quiet, safe, centrally located neighborhood

This upstairs room was spacious for a couple or small family. The bathroom is upscale with a bidet and huge shower. There is a lap pool that is just right for aquaerobic stretching or, of course, doing laps. Stores and lovely beaches are within walking distance. Right out back is a very nice walk around the bay; wonderful tide pools and scenery.

Kailua Trip

Property is in excellent shape and has an amazing pool.The landlord was very responsiveThis unit IS NOT ocean front like the add states- It faces the mountains and is in the back of the house. . It is close to the Ocean however and has one deck with an ocean view.The unit is upstairs and there are 12-15 stairs you have to lug your suitcase up. Not a huge deal- but requires some effort.The neighborhood is nice. The only downside is you have to drive 2 miles to Kailua Beach park and the parking was very tight due to road construction around park.This will probably improve once construction is done.Overall a very nice place to stay

Worth the splurge!

I was hoping for comfortable, and I got it. The bed is firm and comfy for my spinal injuries. The pool was wonderful, easy to get in and out of, and the surrounding grounds make for a private experience. Easy access to the shoreline. My only suggestions: 1. A shelf of sorts in the shower for shower products. 2. A toilet paper holder that is easy to reach. Both are only personal to me because I'm having spinal issues right now, so that's it. Most other guests wouldn't notice these things. Our host was super friendly, and the cats were cute. I hope to stay again some day. Mahalo!

A Little Slice of Heaven!

Beautiful property with a beautiful pool and great location! Super quiet residential neighborhood and awesome owner! When you leave your unit a super short walk along the house opens to the Pacific; stunning! There’s a longer walk when you turn right along the coast. Loved everything about it 😁

Quiet Kailua Getaway

This place had everything we needed. It was clean, the shower worked great and the AC worked even better. It’s tucked away in the edge of Kailua, in a nice & quiet neighborhood. We found it fairly easy to get from our place to all the attractions we wanted to see in Kailua and Lanikai.

Delightful Ocean Breezes

We had a wonderful time in this beautiful property. We stayed in the ocean-side unit and our son and daughter-in-law stayed in the pool-view unit. It was perfect for our family. The lap pool was refreshing and lovely. The host was fabulous to communicate with and extremely helpful. We would absolutely stay again!

beautiful space

we really enjoyed our time here. it was comfortably and luxurious. the bathroom is top notch. other notable things: the shore just outside is rocky (not suitable for swimming) and we didn’t see much tide pooling besides a ton of crabs scurrying away. the pool is great, but half looks into the owners’ living room so we stuck to the other half. doing laundry requires coordination with the owner. there are two decks: a sitting area next to the entrance, the other overlooks the pool and has the mountain view, but is next to the external AC unit. the house is about a mile away from any restaurant or activity.

Fantastic week in Kailua

My nephew and I enjoyed the Mountain View room immensely. Tom and Lucinda were delightful and everything went beautifully. We loved the two lanais and the view of mountains and ocean from the loft. Proximity to family we were visiting was fantastic and the neighborhood is quiet with great walking and access to shopping and ocean front as well as a convenient base for day trips. We loved the shower and everything was comfortable and worked wonderfully. Ocean breezes and the pool kept us cool as well

Great Stay on the Windward Side of Oahu

The unit was very clean and well stocked with amenities - plenty of clean towels, soap/shampoo, as well as spices, seasoning, and cooking oil. Had everything we needed for our stay. The location is perfect! At the end of a no-outlet road in a very pleasant, quiet neighborhood. Quick and easy access to the base at K-Bay, as well as to Kailua Town and highways to explore other parts of the island. It was so nice to sleep to the sound of the crashing waves. Would highly recommend this unit and this Host. Top marks.
