Modern Luxury Beach House Kailua

Very spacious and clean. We were very comfortable with plenty of closets and amenities. Great to have a driveway and carport.. It’s an easy 5 minute walk to the beach. The area is quiet and peaceful.

A little warm at times with no AC but this is typical for Hawaii. The stovetop was difficult to operate and constantly showed error codes. (No instructions found) The upstairs bathroom needs some blinds or curtains.

We had a wonderful stay in this lovely house. It was equipped with almost everything we needed (a coffee grinder would have been great for our Hawaiian beans). The kitchen has plenty of pots, pans, bowls, etc to create delicious meals, if you are so inclined. The beds and pillows are comfortable and we all slept well. The beach is a short walk away and there are plenty of beach accessories like chairs, towels, snorkels, a cooler, umbrella and other things. It feels more like a loved home rather than a rental. Communication with Kay was easy and he is very responsive. We so enjoyed our stay.

The living room is quite dark with only dim recessed lighting making reading quite difficult. A table lamp or two would be a good addition.

The location is fantastic and it was very quiet. A 4 minute walk to Kalama Beach was really nice. You can also walk to shops and restaurants very easily - maybe a 10-15min walk.

We liked the location and it was adequate for our needs.

First of all, there was no place to put our luggage-they need luggage stands or somewhere to out them besides the floor which made it very difficult to access our things. We had to put them on the couch and bed and keep moving them to use the couch and bed. The bed was very soft and extremely uncomfortable. Two of the main windows which would have provided airflow through the studio were blocked off (for some privacy from the main house I would assume) and made it very stuffy inside. There was no screen door for the front door and that would have allowed for some cross air flow. The wifi never worked which was very disappointing -the only feedback from the owner on that issue was “it works when I use it”. All in all we thought it was a good location -but there is a school next to it so we are not sure how the noise level would be when school is in session. Also, the carport is right behind the studio where the bed is located so when a car pulls up from the main house it is noisy. Overall it seems a bit pricey for what you get.
