We couldn't have asked for a better place! David and Sarah exceeded our expectations and we were pleasantly surprised by the additional amenities that weren't listed such as plastic plate/bowls/silverware for children, a bed rail to make sure our son didn't fall off of the bed, floaties to help my daughter feel safe in the ocean, multiple beach towels, etc. We were so happy with our stay and will definitely be staying here again the next time we travel to Hawaii! You won't be disappointed!

Great stay in Kailua, away from the hustle and bustle of Waikiki. Close to our favorite beaches - Kailua (beautiful! And great for kayaking) and bellows (fun boogie boarding). The hosts live behind the property and were readily available to offer recommendations and what activity to plan for which day and give insider tips on hikes and beaches. They have a stocked kitchen to include a pantry with the basics to get you started before you grocery shop. My husband and I stayed there with our two boys and my parents - there was enough room so we all had our own space. Additional plus’s: We fought over use of the massage chair after hikes :) they had lots of beach gear for us to use - chairs, umbrella, snorkel gear, boogie boards, great perk! we also rented kayaks from them - great price and they helped deliver them to the beach. The hosts were also very accommodating with an early check in and late check out.

Fabulous property! The owners are incredibly kind and helpful. We did not have any issues while we were there, but I am sure if we had they would have been available immediately to help. We are a family with 7 kids and the house fit us well. The owners provided an air mattress and portable crib which was really helpful. They also have beach toys, coolers, beach towels, kids life vests and a really large washer and dryer. The house is near a small shopping area with groceries and some restaurants. The local beaches are nice too. Each room has a wall ac unit and there are two units in the living room - these worked really well the keep the home cool. We would not hesitate to stay here again!

Our family group (8 adults) enjoyed a very pleasant one week stay in this well stocked Kailua Home. Our hosts provided everything required for our stay, including beach towels and sand chairs. The home is conveniently located and close to Safeway Market, shopping, restaurants and the beaches of Kailua, Bellows AFB and Waimanalo. It is only about a 20 minute drive over the Pali Highway to Waikiki and about the same time via the H3 to the Aiea area of the Island (Aloha Bowl Swap Meet, Aiea Bowling Alley Restaurant, Pearl Harbor, etc.). We are currently spending our second week in a Waikiki Condo (which has it's own advantages), but we had way more room to stretch out and relax in Kailua. We really enjoyed the change of pace and relaxed vibe on this side of the Island. Our hosts live on the back side of the property and offered to help with anything we needed, but were not intrusive. The house has a carport that accommodated our two vehicles and there was additional street parking. The only thing that we would suggest is an air mattress or more level sleeping surface in the Living Room Area. The futon pull out was very uneven and uncomfortable according to my son & his girlfriend, who used it. The beds in the bedrooms were very comfortable.
We would definitely consider renting this home again. We have been visiting the Islands every January for many years and this was one of the most convenient and comfortable accommodations we have experienced.
Thank You!
