Location excellent. Property met our needs for our stay. Scott was very easy to communicate with and very accomodating. Look forward to a return trip to Oahu. Property does need some deferred maintenance performed. Other than that, everything was absolutely fine. Mahalo Scott.

We stayed for the month of November 2023. Our adult daughters and their spouses joined us along with a 14 month old Grandchild. There was plenty of room for all, house was somewhat dated but absolutely comfortable and clean, the pool was superb, easy walk to the beach using provided wagons/umbrellas/chairs. Scott was an amazing host. We all had a most wonderful time.

We had a fantastic stay at Butterfly House. The home was exactly as listed. The pool was bigger than expected and very well used. There was lots of pool and beach gear available. There were even beach wagons and coolers. The walk to the beach was easy and the beach was truly the beast on the island. Not busy, clean, great for bobbing, surfing, boarding, fishing or just reading. The location of the house between Kailua town and Kaneohe with easy access to all higways was perfect. Its an easy 25 minute drive from the airport.
Our family were very comfortable and loved the charCter of the home. Many had not visited the uslands before and this introduction had them planning their return. Scott our host was friendly and responsive. His welcome tour was thorough and he insisted on helping us pack in our luggage and groceries. We will be back again. A month was too short!

This home in Kailua is located in a quiet neighborhood with a large backyard shaded by a huge monkeypod tree. Plenty of comfortable outdoor seating furniture and a wonderfully refreshing swimming pool. Off street parking and plenty of room to spread out with a well equipped kitchen if you like to stay in and prepare your own meals. Washer and dryer make this very convenient. The owner/manager lives in the area and is quick to respond to any questions or issues. Walking distance to one of the best beaches in Hawaii. Grocery stores and restaurants are nearby. We recommend this home and the owner and will book here again!

Absolutely wonderful stay for our family! Everything we remember about wonderful Kailua! The quaint and quiet town, the refreshing breeze, and the sweet serenity of the simple life! Scott met us and made checkin a breeze. Plenty of fans were provided and used on the warm days. The beach was amazing! The walk to beach does require some attention on a short stretch of road, as Scott advised. A real value for Kailua. One of the most serene experiences of our lives! If only we could afford to buy such house!

We thoroughly enjoyed our recent stay (March 2023) at this beautiful house with a nice, large backyard with pool. We got the feeling that the neighborhood is one of the best in Kailua. A short walk to Kailua beach was our morning, sunrise routine. We loved the house decor and wall landscapes. The kitchen had everything we needed. The teenager, and even we, used the beach chairs and boogie boards a lot. Our host, Scott, was very gracious and responsive to questions. We highly recommend this rental if you’re looking to stay in Kailua. A beautiful, more quiet side of Oahu - Only 25-30 minutes to Waikiki. And there were several good restaurants close by.

We loved the property! Our family stayed the month of January and would return in a heartbeat. Scott is an attentive host that was readily available with any of our questions or concerns. The home is spacious and open with a true Hawaiian decor, easily accommodating our family with space to spare. The enclosed entry invites you into the home with the calming sound of the koi pond being heard throughout the living area. The home is well equipped with all towels, linens, cooking utensils, etc. for all your needs. The real treasure is the outdoor tropical retreat with a large pool, tables, sitting pods and lots of pool and beach equipment for us to use. We enjoyed watching many spectacular sunrises on beautiful Kailua Beach which is an easy 5 minute walk from Scott's magnificent property. Don't hesitate to reserve this incredible home, you won't be disappointed. Thanks Scott for a wonderful vacation!

Scott is an awesome host. His home fit all of our needs and was everything we could have hoped for during our month stay in Hawaii. It was clean, roomy, and had more amenities than we expected. It was close to the beach, and there were chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, snorkel equipment and more for us to use. The backyard pool and yard were well maintained and enjoyed daily. We loved our time here and would definitely stay here again. Thank you, Scott, for sharing your beautiful home with us. Aloha!

I LOVED the house!!! It was perfect for our family and friends to relax, recharge and rejuvenate! The house is designed very well. Open floor plan with great energy combining indoor and outdoor living perfectly. Everything felt very tropical and lush. Screens for all the doors and windows so you can just feel and smell fresh air and all the beautiful tropical landscaping. The bedrooms open into the most beautiful backyard with a big swimming pool. Plenty of chairs in the shade or sunshine. Easy to work by the pool with good internet and watching the kids swim. Everything felt very open, spacious, and tropical. Everything we dreamed Hawaii could be! The sound of the waterfall in the coi pond was such a nice touch! I couldn’t ask for a nicer and more responsive host. Scott was great at communicating, answering any question and taking care of things quickly. The house is just a 5 minute walk to one of the most beautiful beaches. Great shopping and restaurants within a 5-10 minute drive. Parking was easy. Lots of different areas, tables, counters, etc for different people in our group to work, eat, Netflix, etc. We had plenty of bedding, towels and whatever items needed for the beach & pool. Kitchen was equipped with everything we needed for cooking. The only thing we wanted was to stay longer!
