The Kahala Hotel & Resort

10/10 Excellent

"It was a very relaxing experience. Enjoyed watching the dolphins. Restaurants were exquisite and excellent. Pool and beach were fantastic and enjoyed them immensely. It is definitely a 5 star hotel and resort. Well worth the cost."

PRIVATE BEACHFRONT RENTAL

10/10 Excellent

"Peaceful beach front unit! We thoroughly enjoyed our 7 nights in Kailua at this beautiful little studio. It was private and very quiet. The unit is perfect for two people. There’s a cute little dining table in the bedroom/living room where you can sit and look out the window and see the ocean. The “kitchen “ is connected to the powder room , but the way it’s arranged it seems like a totally separate space. There’s a refrigerator, microwave, keurig one cup coffee maker, and even a toaster. Parking was never a problem. Shari is wonderful! We arrived a bit early, but was she was very accommodating and allowed us to leave our luggage in the room even though it wasn’t fully prepared. We were welcomed with a gift of cookies upon our check in. Sheri texted us once to make sure that everything was okay. Although she is present on the property, we never saw her until our last evening while we were sitting outside enjoying the view. We’ve stayed at other rentals in Kailua and Kaneohe over the past 20 years and definitely will be returning back. I give it 5 ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for location, cleanliness, comfort, amenities, peaceful, safe, view, hospitality, and aloha! It’s not fancy, but it’s exactly what you would expect from being just steps away from the beach. Thank you for sharing your lovely space with us, Shari! We visit every year and look forward to many more beautiful Kailua sunrises & sunsets! Jessica & Frank"

10/10 Excellent

"We loved the beach access and the fact that they have beach chairs, boards, etc., in the carport area for guests' use. The house was clean, and the owners were very clear in their expectations for a great stay."

La Bella’s Bed & Breakfast-Honu (Turtle) Suite-Walk to beach-In Kailua (O’ahu)

10/10 Excellent

"I had a wonderful stay. Gabriel and Shannon were friendly and accommodating. The ten minute walk to the beach was wonderful. Super comfy bed, cold AC, and breakfast too. I’ll definitely be back! Thank you, both."

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

10/10 Excellent

"Hosts were so kind and amazing to work with. The location is perfect - SO close to the beach! The pool was perfect for our kids when they wanted off the beach but weren’t done swimming. As others stated, big vehicles are hard to park, we had a minivan that we parked just down the lane with no problem."

Kailua Kai/Beach Front Licensed Rental #1990/NUC-1780

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: THERE WERE 7 OF US, AND THE ACCOMMODATIONS WERE GREAT.. EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT...TOP QUALITY ITEMS, BEDS WERE VERY COMFORTABLE, EVERYTHING YOU NEED IN A KITCHEN IF YOU WERE TO COOK...BEACH GEAR WAS TOP QUALITY, AND OF COURSE KAILUA BEACH IS UNFORGETTABLE...2 CARS FIT IN PARKING AREA WELL, ALTHOUGH GETTING TURNED AROUND TO HEAD OUT THE DRIVE WAS A LITTLE CHALLENGE WITH 2 CARS, BUT WE FIGURED IT OUT AND DIDN'T HAVE PROBLEMS. IF I NEED RENTAL FOR 7 OR 8 AGAIN, WOULD DEFINITELY BOOK THIS HOME. WAS AS CLOSE TO BEING "HOME" IN KAILUA AS I COULD BE."

Perfect Kailua Vacation at Ka Hale Lai-House of Serenity-pool and spa.

8/10 Good

"I rented this property for a big family group vacation and there were many things to love and a few to improve. We absolutely loved the property layout with the number of bedrooms, the separate primary bedroom suite, pool, hot tub, plumeria trees and quiet neighborhood. The property was obviously a former converted family home and it felt updated but still retro in a charming way. It’s a beautiful place with lots of room to hang out communally and relax. What needs improvement are the amenities and some details that should be addressed considering the cost of the place. Note that some of these things were eventually resolved after communication with the host and that was appreciated. However, other things are just fundamental features that I recommend the host invests in for future groups. The resolved items were a lack of sufficient toilet paper, paper towels & laundry pods for the week long stay. The unresolved items were the over flowing trash that wasn’t picked up as scheduled, old stained pillows (inside the covers) & old stained carpet in the living room, as well as a missing toilet paper dispenser in one bathroom. There also wasn’t a coffee grinder or many functional kitchen tools like a full set of measuring spoons, a working ice dispenser & decent chopping knives. One exterior kitchen door also doesn’t lock. I think the host could fix all these things with a minimal investment and for the price they owe it to renters."

Center of Kailua Bay! Licensed Beach Front Rental #1990/NUC-1774,1775

10/10 Excellent

"This rental was perfect for us. We traveled with five adult kids and it was a perfect size. The guest house really allowed everyone to find individual space if needed. We loved having our own beach space and access. The houses look pretty basic from the outside but are beautifully renovated on the inside. The beach and Kailua Bay are stunningly beautiful and wonderfully uncrowded. Light sand and turquoise water. We loved walking down to the Kalapuwai Market every day. Loved being walking distance to town. Our two teen girls walked to town every day, loved the boutique shopping. The welcome basket of snacks was lovely. The games are great, we played scrabble every day! The huge television and incredibly comfortable sectional in the main house were perfect for movie nights and World Cup watching. This house is expensive, but it was well worth it and surpassed our expectations. We did ask that the foliage by the beach lanai be trimmed a little more because when sitting down we had no water view. Overall fabulous, I hope to be back."
