Kukui House in Kailua, Hawaii

5 / 5 Excellent

We really enjoyed our stay at the Kukui House in Kailua, Hawaii. It had everything we needed for the week we were there. It was nice the owner of the property was around as he was very helpful and friendly when I had questions on the area as where to go by bike and recommendations for eating out. The unit had a small but efficient kitchen, dining area and a nice family room space for relaxing and watching tv. It also had a small outside patio that overlooked the pool area. The bedrooms and bathroom were comfortable with clean sheets and towels and the whole unit had air conditioning. We enjoyed the swimming pool, jacuzzi and b-que area in the evening after a day at the beach which is conveniently located just across the street! This house is in the best part of Kailua as I was able to just hop on a bike (that was provided in the garage) and go into the cute little town. There were also boogie boards for our use in the garage. I would definitely recommend staying at this property!

Convenient Kailua hideaway

5 / 5 Excellent

Location could not be more perfect. Smack dab in Kailua Beach, with walkable routes to both Lanikai beach to the southeast and Kailua Town to the northwest. The shared pool and patio area was nice. Steve was super friendly and shared nice insights into the neighborhood. Parking is a little squished, but there isn’t an issue parking in the public areas (at least at night - maybe not so much during the day). The fridge and microwave were very handy, and plenty of great food nearby so no need for kitchen really.

Awesome Beachside Cottage Located Just Steps Away From Kailua Beach

A perfectly quiet beach escape!

5 / 5 Excellent

Do I need to be honest? If so, this place will book up and I won’t be able to rebook... because I would in a heartbeat. Herman’s place is perfect for those looking to get away from the tourist area and are seeking a local/residential feel. Quiet. Quaint. And in my humble opinion, best beach on the island. Kailua bay was clean, soft sand, and calm waves, perfect for my 2 little guys (1 and 4 years). The beach was steps away, which for parents, this is a must for ease of enjoying a beach day with little kids. Another must (especially with littles) is feeling like you’re staying in a clean place. I must comment on how exceptionally clean Herman’s place was. I didn’t have to worry one bit about the baby crawling or baby proofing in general. The yard and home is well contained and maintained. It made my week much more worry free and relaxing. Herman’s place took great care of us. The attention to detail was noticed and we were very satisfied. We hope to return again one day!

There are 2 units built above the main house where the owners live. We stayed in the studio unit which had 2 decks, one overlooking the ocean; the other a lovely lap pool accessible to guests. The kitchen is outfitted to prepare simple meals. We would happily stay here again.

Great trip

5 / 5 Excellent

You cannot beat this location. You are steps away from one beautiful beach and 1/2 mile walk from another. The unit is small but it has everything you need, and it worked well for our family of four. Bob was extremely responsive and helpful. Would definitely stay here again.
