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! ##### Shane T.

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 ##### Mark W.

Owner sent us great instructions on how to arrive at property. Upon arrival we had our own door code (no key to worry about) the room was above the owners living quarters. They were quiet and to themselves. Room was very clean, nicely arranged and very welcoming. The only thing that wasn't accurate was we were on the inside portion of the Rental. The ocean view was obstructed by the house. However about 25 steps would take you to the ocean for the beautiful sunrises. ##### Jeff J.

Janet Gibbs Arrival date April 20, 2015 What a nice place! My boyfriend and I stayed here last minute--we had made no reservations ahead of our arrival date. Luckily we found this amazing rental in Kailua with spectacular location. The house is right in front of the ocean and although we stayed in the mountain view room, it had a really nice view of the ocean from one of the balconies. The other one faced the mountains/neighborhood and overlooked a fabulous pool with waterfalls. We had a blast using the pool and bbq at night--so beautiful under the stars. We'd love to come back someday. ##### janet g. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Allison R. Jul 31, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect getaway! Our stay was so lovely! The house was exactly as described, check in and check out was easy, and our hostess was wonderful. We were provided everything we could have wanted- beach and bath towels, a beach umbrella, kitchen appliances and dishes, etc. The king bed was incredibly comfortable, and my daughter said the bed she slept in up in the loft was also comfortable. We loved the pool and close ocean access, and the nearby cove ended up being my daughter's favorite place we went swimming. I read in the previous reviews that some people had problems figuring out how the air conditioning worked, but it was very self-explanatory- there are two units, and with both on it actually got so cold that I would end up turning one off after it cooled off. The Kailua area is quiet and close to beautiful beaches, a botanical garden, and lots of attractions. If we come back to O'ahu, I would definitely stay in this unit again! ##### Allison R.

It didn’t really have any ventilation - most of the windows don’t open - so it could feel stifling. I tried to leave the AC’s fan running (without the chiller running) just to keep air moving, but I think the hosts turned it off. Anyway, it does have an AC, so you can cool off nicely at night, but that negates the whole “hear the waves crashing on the rocks” thing. If the air could move through there, four stars. Absent that, this is a perfectly adequate rental for a stay in the Kailua area. ##### Nick C.

The ocean crashing on the lava shelf just in front of the house is nothing short of spectacular, any time of day. We stayed in the mountain view suite, but you can still see the ocean from the balconies. The pool water is very pleasant, soft, and refreshing and you can sit under the waterfalls. The bed is firm, but comfortable, the pillows are supportive. My teenage son loved the loft and spent almost his whole time up there. Very pleasant crossbreeze and the air conditioner helped to cool down the room after the place had been locked up. But after that, we didn't need it. The walk-in closet doubles as a dressing room. The place is very light, clean, and airy. If you need it dark to be able to sleep in, bring a mask. A boogie board, snorkel and fins are provided as well as towels, beach chairs and an umbrella. The owners are very helpful and allow you to use their washer/dryer in the garage, which is great. We'll be staying there again for sure. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Paniolo Greens At Waikoloa](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Paniolo-Greens-At-Waikoloa.h599417.Hotel-Information) > > [Club Wyndham Bali Hai Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Princeville-Hotels-Club-Wyndham-Bali-Hai-Villas.h1744108.Hotel-Information) > > [Waimea Plantation Cottages, a Coast Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Waimea-Hotels-Waimea-Plantation-Cottages.h52880.Hotel-Information) > > [OUTRIGGER Kauaʻi Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Lihue-Hotels-OUTRIGGER-Kauai-Beach-Resort-Spa.h583022.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Waikoloa Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Hilton-Waikoloa-Village.h19640.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Ocean Tower Waikoloa Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Ocean-Tower-By-Hilton-Grand-Vacations.h28763131.Hotel-Information) > > [Waikoloa Beach Marriott Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Waikoloa-Beach-Marriott-Resort-Spa.h22600.Hotel-Information) > > [Sugar Beach Resort - Maui Condo & Home](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Sugar-Beach-Resort-Maui-Condo-Home.h101695.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Resort Lanai](https://www.expedia.ca/Lanai-City-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Resort-Lanai.h2980.Hotel-Information) > > [Mauna Kea Beach Hotel, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamuela-Hotels-Mauna-Kea-Beach-Hotel.h34873.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Kauai Wailua Bay, HI](https://www.expedia.ca/Lihue-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Kauai-Wailua-Bay.h25719.Hotel-Information) > > [Hana-Maui Resort, a Destination by Hyatt Residence](https://www.expedia.ca/Hana-Hotels-Hana-Maui-Resort.h933.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Hapuna Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamuela-Hotels-The-Westin-Hapuna-Beach-Resort.h34872.Hotel-Information) > > [The Royal Sonesta Kaua'i Resort Lihue](https://www.expedia.ca/Lihue-Hotels-Royal-Sonesta-Kauai-Resort-Lihue.h8373.Hotel-Information) > > [Maui Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kahului-Hotels-Maui-Beach-Hotel.h18554.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Kings’ Land Waikoloa](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Kings-Land-By-Hilton-Grand-Vacations.h2303745.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Orchid](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamuela-Hotels-Fairmont-Orchid.h25190.Hotel-Information) > > [Castle Kama'ole Sands](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Castle-Kamaole-Sands.h21083.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairway Villas Waikoloa by OUTRIGGER](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Fairway-Villas-Waikoloa-By-OUTRIGGER.h914142.Hotel-Information) > > [Maui Beach Vacation Club](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Maui-Beach-Vacation-Club.h2457.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott's Kaua'i Beach Club](https://www.expedia.ca/Lihue-Hotels-Marriotts-Kauai-Beach-Club.h1767377.Hotel-Information) > > [Maui Kamaole - Maui Condo & Home](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Maui-Kamaole-Maui-Condo-Home.h101693.Hotel-Information) > > [Lahaina Shores](https://www.expedia.ca/Lahaina-Hotels-Lahaina-Shores-Beach-Resort.h84901.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Maui Bay Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Maui-Bay-Villas-By-Hilton-Grand-Vacations.h3001.Hotel-Information) > > [Aston Maui Hill](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Aston-Maui-Hill.h24554.Hotel-Information) > > [Mauna Lani, Auberge Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamuela-Hotels-Mauna-Lani.h426160.Hotel-Information) > > [Courtyard by Marriott Oahu North Shore](https://www.expedia.ca/Laie-Hotels-Courtyard-By-Marriott-Oahu-North-Shore.h9727677.Hotel-Information) > > [Maui Coast Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Maui-Coast-Hotel.h28645.Hotel-Information) > > [Aston at the Maui Banyan](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Aston-At-The-Maui-Banyan.h22568.Hotel-Information) > > [Hanalei Bay Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Princeville-Hotels-Hanalei-Bay-Resort.h460385.Hotel-Information)
