Sep 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy A Slice of Paradise in Kailua!My wife and I spent an entire month at this incredible plantation-style house, and it exceeded all our expectations. The location is absolutely perfect, just a stone's throw from what we believe is one of the best beaches in the United States.We nicknamed it "The Plantation House" for its magnificent wrap-around lanai on the second floor. This porch, complete with rocking chairs, was our favorite spot to enjoy breathtaking views of Kailua Beach and spectacular sunsets every single night. We even had a front-row seat for the Marine base airshow!The trade winds flowing through the house provided natural and blissful cooling. The downstairs 'Ohana was fabulous for our guests, and we were blown away by how well the house was stocked. From beach toys, canoes, and paddleboards to surfboards and every supply you could need, they have thought of everything.Lastly, the hosts, Virginia and Dan, were wonderful. They were attentive and handled any request promptly. Dan even kindly took our trash and recyclables out on the scheduled days—a touch above and beyond that we truly appreciated. The ample trash and recycling bins were also a very practical plus.We cannot recommend this property highly enough for a wonderful and complete Kailua vacation. We would return in a heartbeat. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ef243714-3317-4c80-9b9f-c0a3b93821a4-1757336051219.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d6f50e7a-808d-4c19-8d3d-a59c19088590-1757336051440.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6ccae0ed-b9e1-49f4-b7c2-5b2ca87b588e-1757336052044.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Robert F M.

Jan 6, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Phenomenal house and location We had an extended family vacation consisting of kids, parents, and grandparents. This property cannot be beat. The house, the views, and the location are simply spectacular. The house is such high quality and luxurious but comfortable and homey too. Lots of spaces to gather together, or get away for some quiet time. The house is well appointed in all the key areas..kitchen, dining, garage, laundry, bathrooms. The hosts have literally thought of everything, from the rockers on the front of the wrap around porch to enjoy the beautiful views, to the assortment of water toys, chairs, towels, coolers, etc, to enjoy the beaches, to the assortment of kitchen appliances, tools, spices and condiments on hand. The location of the house is amazing, steps from the beach with beautiful views from the house. But besides that, the town of Kailua is an awesome place to be if you want to be far enough from the crowds of Waikiki but still close enough to visit when you want. There were just so many nice touches within the property that I’m unable to mention them all. But worth noting, after a long day of travel, we dreaded having to jump out of bed to get groceries b4 having a morning cup of coffee. To our surprise they had everything we needed to have our morning coffee before heading out. We will definitely be back and look forward to staying at this property again! ##### Melodie B.

Many times when you look at a listing, the photos online look better than when you actually arrive. However, in this case, the photos online looked amazing and seeing them in person completely exceeded our expectations. The home was wonderful and the views. . . the views were breathtaking. We were so close to the beach, we woke up to the sounds of the waves crashing and went to sleep at night with the sounds of waves crashing. We absolutely loved staying at this home and the amenities that were available for our use. It really added to our experience. I also have to mention how impressed I was with Virginia our host. Prior to our arrival we were communicating about when our flights were coming in and she was so gracious to allow us an earlier check-in which made it so much more comfortable than driving around with our luggage waiting for our check-in time. Not to mention, she was there at the house to make sure we were able to get into the home without an issue and gave us a personal tour of the home to ensure we had everything we needed and showed us where everything was located. This personal touch and attention really stood out and impressed us. Finally when it came to checking out, our flight was later in the day and Virginia was again gracious to allow us a later than planned check out so that we could spend one last morning at the most beautiful beach that is in front of the home.

The home was very well maintained and totally stocked with basic pantry items making cooking and enjoying the beach a breeze. We loved our stay, thank you! ##### Hallie W.

Everything about the home and the neighborhood makes you feel like you are part of the local culture from the first day. And, of course, the owner makes a big difference, being attentive and helpful while still ensuring you have the privacy and relaxation you came for. Thank you for a fantastic vacation. ##### William M. Stayed 31 nights in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sarah B.

The teenagers tried out all the beach and ocean equipment which is saying a lot considering how much gear was available. Beautiful ocean views any time of day. Kailua is just the right size, plenty of stores but laid back and not too big for getting around. The Sunday farmers market was great for fruits and vegetables. The owners were welcoming and helpful. We're already talking about our next trip staying here. ##### Sarah B.

The home is spacious and clean and well stocked with anything you might need including bikes, surf boards, boogie boards, SUPs, kayaks, snorkel gear and more. Virginia and Dan were wonderful to work with. Highly recommend!! Oh... did I mention the view? WOW!! ##### Mia M.

Very comfortable, roomy true beach house, well provisioned. More than enough beach toys, chairs, towels, etc. for all to enjoy. Perfect place for us to celebrate a special birthday that included 7 adults and a 15 month old. Dan and Virginia are most gracious and accommodating owners/hosts,. There was some construction on a house next door but it in no way interfered with our stay. The only regret we have is that the week of our stay went by way tooo quickly. ##### Philip M.

Dec 9, 2008 #### Guestbook Comment We've stayed here twice and can't wait to go back! The house is perfect: beautiful casual decor, gorgeous views, and all the beach gear you could ask for. The house is perfect for families. We've stayed here with kids ranging from age 1 to 9\. Dan and Kat have made every effort to accommodate our needs. The beach right outside the door is wonderful-great bodysurfing and boogieboarding. I am running out of superlatives to describe this place. It is truly magical! ##### otvG9QuG9/2XVkUdRZKM+VGLbYtpyIrrs6Wi8/wumOaTz5EHDYV1/VizA6B/1ZoERXgePgpTzbYqaBRRtJeSYlQ+6PVCnNxD4X+c o.

Grandparents can sit on the veranda and read and watch/take pictures of kids and grand children enjoying the beach and the ocean. Good beds and furniture and the kitchen is very well equipped and stocked. Lots of beach/ocean and other toys and equipment. If you enjoy cooking and don't like the cost/hassle/long waits of eating out in Hawaii, go to Whole Foods up the street to shop or pick up something at the Deli. Dan was very attentive. We took side trips to the Polynesian Cultural Center, Dole Plantation, and the North Shore. Stop at Kua Aina for a great hamburger while at the North Shore and snorkel at Shark's Cove. ##### Ron H.

Dan and Virginia's beautiful home in Kailua was perfect in every way for our family vacation. Eight of us (parents and young adults) enjoyed all the amenities that came with house: great kitchen, every water toy you could want (SUPs, surf boards, kayaks, boogie boards, etc), lawn games, bikes, coolers, hats, rash guards, sun screen, sand chairs, beach towels, grill... you name it! We ate most of our meals at the house and enjoyed cooking together in the well-stocked kitchen (all the spices, utensils and dishes we needed) and loved spending time on the beautiful wrap-around porch, perfect lawn and - best of all - the amazing, beautiful and quiet beach just steps from our back door. The 4th of July fireworks right over our beach were an amazing bonus to the wonderful week we spent together. Couldn't have asked for a better location - easy walks or bike rides into town (and shave ice!) - and the gorgeous beach to look at and enjoy 24/7\. Dan and Virginia were perfect hosts and were very helpful before and during our stay. A wonderful vacation that our family will never forget! Mahalo! ##### Marilyn W.

Dan and Virginia were stellar hosts, made sure we had everything we needed, and provided us with a perfect setting to rest, relax, and recharge at the end of summer. There is truly every outdoor toy anyone could need, all indoor conveniences too, and the location can’t be beat. Plenty of space for our large family to spread out. We will miss sipping coffee while enjoying the sunrise over the ocean and our daily boogie boarding with our kids. If you have the opportunity to stay here, you will not regret it. We hope to be back ourselves. ##### Kathryn Ann F. Stayed 14 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kristine L.

The location and views can't be beat, the house is appointed for anything you could want at the the beach, and the hosts were communicative and easy to work with from start to finish. We even cooked Thanksgiving dinner in the house - often a challenge in a rental! - and the kitchen has everything we needed and more! Overall, our time in Kailua was incredible and made all the better for staying in this beautiful home. We will absolutely be back! ##### Kristine L.

Nov 3, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beachside Perfection I can’t imagine a better place to vacation on Oahu. Kailua is a charming town on the Windward side of Oahu a world away from the madhouse of Waikiki, but with everything you could want or need available. The property is exceptional in every way. Located on gorgeous Kailua Beach, this home is equipped with every beach toy, ( even kites to take advantage of the trade winds ) yard games, and has a manicured tropical garden with lounge and beach chairs, tables and a charming swing for two. The house is immaculate, and provisioned with absolutely everything you could possibly need. And the wraparound lanai with the rocking chairs positioned to view sunrises, moon over the Bay, and the daily beach walkers— heaven! The hosts, Virginia and Dan, are very responsive and accommodating. If there were 10 stars available to rate this exceptional home, I would give it 11! We can’t wait to return to our new “happy place”. ##### Lynn H. Stayed 13 nights in Oct 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anna W.

Virginia and Dan are attentive, thoughtful hosts who stock the house with everything you need for a beach vacation -- from a well-stocked kitchen to tons of beach and water toys to ample towels and sunscreen. The view from the living room is hard to beat. We can't wait to return. Thank you, Virginia and Dan once again! ##### Anna W.

In Every Way. Kailua Beach, Beach Access, Privacy, Views, Accessories This is an an amazing property location with simple access to Kailua town, Honolulu, and anywhere on the island. Kailua Beach is unsurpassed and this house sits as close to the beach as any house and about in the middle of the 2.5 mile sand beach. The house fits the beach well. It is designed as a beach house and looks good from the beach and fits with and is furnished well to reflect Hawaii and beach living. Enjoy incredible 180 degree views from the upstairs lanai that will take your breath away. A wide lanai with loungers and rockers so you can sit and enjoy the ocean all day and night. Also a upstairs lanai teak outdoor table for BBQ and relaxing. The owner's hobby is orchids and there are lots of beautiful plants spread inside the rooms. The yard is well landscaped and supplied with teak lounger's, teak picnic tables/chairs, umbrellas, and tiki lights. The wonderfully soft lawn leads directly to the beach. Outdoor hot & cold shower, coconut trees, and lots of plants. Ground floor master bedroom and upstairs master, queen, and twin bedrooms give lots of privacy and yet will bring your family together with the best of fun. Everything is 1st Class. Dishes, towels, bedding, supplies, beach accessories, yard toys, landscaping and more. Nothing has been overlooked or forgotten and everything was in good condition and ready for use. Thank you so much for sharing. The only thing you didn't do...make our week long enough. ##### Daniel D.
