'Alohilani Resort Waikiki Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Just got back yesterday. Big shout out to Jenna S., Sarah F. and Mata M. for the love. The family had a great time and it looks like we'll be going back to Alohilani next year. I wanted to stay at the Sheraton, but after this last trip, I don't think the family wants to stay anywhere else. Someone from their customer service or AI texted me daily to check on us. They answered all my questions in a text without me even having to call down to the front desk. That was super convenient. Their fitness center was cool. Not really big, but bigger than most hotel fitness centers. There's a lot of people in the morning so you'll have to wait for the machines. Other than that, it's equipped with almost every machine you'll need for your workout. Love the LongBoard Club. A bunch of amazing food and drink options. The workers were kind and friendly. Loved the Swell Pool Bar's French fries and wings (shoutout to Emily for the recommendation) it did not disappoint. Sad they got rid of the club sandwich though. Shoutout to all the poolside servers too! Although, they did get rid of a lot of poolside benches and added poolside beds instead. You have to rent the beds. It can get packed at the pool, so if you're not there early enough, good luck getting a bench. The only issues I had with this stay: 1.) We arrived at the hotel at 12pm, but they said our room wasn't ready. Technically check in was at 3pm. However, when we arrived the same time last year, they were able to accommodate an"

The Kahala Hotel & Resort

10/10 Excellent

"The Kahala is a special place. The service is amazing and it is such a relaxing environment. The rooms are beautiful and I love the bathroom with two separate vanities. The beach is calm and beautiful and you can swim there for hours. And the dolphins are just so cool"

Less than 1 min walk to Kailua Beach- NUC#1990/NUC-1760

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay in Kailua! The location was perfect, just a short distance from the beach and close to everything we needed. We really appreciated having plenty of beach gear available to borrow, which made our beach days so easy and convenient. The pool was definitely a highlight and a favorite spot to relax and enjoy the beautiful Hawaii weather! Such a great place to stay while enjoying everything Kailua has to offer. We would happily stay here again!"

Hale Oahu Lic.#1990/NUC-1777/1778 BEACHFRONT KAILUA LUXURY

10/10 Excellent

"Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: First time to Oahu and Kailua so was a little anxious on this property but it turned out perfect in all regards. Single story with additional cottage and space to spread out. AC works great in all rooms and in the cottage. I am already scheming to come back next summer. The outdoor deck is very convenient from the house with gorgeous view. Next time will request a covering over the deck as hot during the day. But it does get windy here so would need to be responsible for its use if provided."

Home had all beach equipment needed to enjoy the quick walk across the lawn to beach. Home was clean, well equipped kitchen to cook and grill, beds were all comfortable, bathrooms well stocked, and very comfortable living room areas for family to gather and talk about the day. Lastly, appreciated the quick response to my questions and warm welcome from Private Homes! We plan on returning!"

Less than a one minute walk to Kailua Beach, Pool, Bikes, BBQ, A/C, and more

10/10 Excellent

"We had the absolute best time here!! The rental is clean with everything you need to be comfortable. I love the little kitchenette, so that we could make food and not have to eat out every meal. The location was exactly what we were looking for! It was just a quick 1-2 min walk to the beach to watch the sunrise. Lanakai beach is just a few minutes away by car. Kailua is such a cute area….central to many small local shops. I love supporting local! Our host, Zak, was super nice and accommodating of our needs. Actually, all the people we met were super friendly and welcoming. This really was the best trip!"
