Three generations enjoyed this beautiful home with huge private heated pool and amazing views. We will treasure our time spent at Kailua Mahalo!

What an incredible property. The oceanfront views and sounds couldn't be beat. We found ourselves out on the deck most early mornings and late evenings watching the sunrises and the starry nights and listening to the waves crash on the reef. Lots of privacy and tucked away in a quiet, upscale neighborhood. The bedrooms were all well-appointed, comfortable and clean, and the open floor plan second level with panoramic windows was perfect for some down-time between adventures. Kailua's beaches, shopping and restaurants are all a few minutes away. Highly recommend this property.

Great location and loved the view!

Richard, your home was everything I expected, wanted and needed for my trip back home to Kailua. I grew up in Kailua, and wanted my grown children and their wives to see where I am from. The moment I came across the Pali and saw the Windward side I immediately felt myself take a deep breath in, then exhale and instantly relax. That feeling of peace was only enhanced by your beyond beautiful home! Tastefully decorated to compliment the natural surroundings. The property has everything you need to slip right in and feel comfortable and at home! The pool and garden are exceptionally maintained and relaxing. On the beach side of the house the tropical breezes and ocean spray are a joy to just sit and watch all day. While you cannot swim in the ocean right there, that doesn’t matter. You’re only 5 min to the sandy 3 mile Kailua beach and it’s calmer waters. The kitchen was great! I love cooking. We had everything we needed in this fully equipped kitchen. The upstairs living area with its wall of window’s provides countless hours of breathtaking scenery! The pictures on the website are just a small teaser to the real deal! Even my local friends who came over were VERY impressed. Several asked for the property ID # to look into a stay. Your caretakers, Ramon and Lianne (great people!) were very accommodating, when or if you needed them. However, you still had complete privacy. I could go on and on! I know a lot of people say this, however, I mean this from the depths of my soul, I found my Aloha spirit again while here. And I plan to carry that with me as long as possible. I can’t thank you enough for your part in that. A 5 star rating is not high enough!! My most sincere MAHALO Richard. Jacqueline May, 2022

Our family enjoyed everything about this home. We cried when we left. We hope that we can get together again and return to this special place.

This is a beautiful home with amazing views in a nice, quiet residential setting.. Rick, the owner, was extremely attentive to our needs and checked in with us on a couple of occasions to make sure our stay was going smoothly. Overall great experience! Scott Nowinski Knoxville, TN

Our family had a lovely time here. We had a 1.5 year old and it was pretty safe with keeping a close eye. The house and view are beautiful. Great location. Easy access to the highways. The beds were SO comfortable. The host and managers were great. Thank you!

This house is beautifully designed for its oceanfront location. The wide expanse of windows upstairs provides mesmerizing views and sounds of the ocean. This side faces east so you can enjoy the sunrise over the ocean every morning (often the pre-dawn glow provides more interesting colors and patterns than the actual sunrise itself). The louver windows offer a refreshing breeze off the ocean, and we never had a problem with bugs or insects. The open plan area upstairs includes the kitchen, a dining and sitting area, and a small study desk. There is also a covered lanai opposite the ocean view, which overlooks the pool in the front yard, with colorful sunsets over the mountains in the distance, and provides shelter from strong ocean winds and rain. We spent most of our time upstairs and rarely ventured downstairs except to sleep or use the pool. The landscaping is mature and beautiful and gives excellent privacy from the neighboring houses and street. The house is in a quiet residential area, which remained peaceful even during the Christmas and new year period and suited us perfectly. The pool is heated but also warmed by the sun from mid-morning to late afternoon, and is excellent for lap swimming. Kailua center is about 10-15 minutes’ drive away and has plenty of shops and restaurants. Kailua Beach is a short drive away, but you can even walk there. All in all, a wonderful place to spend a vacation. Richard the host was always prompt and helpful with his responses as we planned our trip – thank you.

We stayed for two weeks abs the house was such a big part of the Hawaii experience. I’m already looking into my next trip back. The home, home owner/manager were fabulous. Thank you for everything!!!

Great location if you love visiting Kailua and Lanikai Beaches. Amazing direct ocean front and pool.

The moment Lianne and Ramon greeted us the first day at the house with a warm welcome we knew this was going to be a special trip. Their support throughout the stay and recommendations were spectacular! The house was perfect in every way and the views were stunning. Very comfortable beds, house had all the supplies needed for cooking, grilling, swimming, and beach activities. Sitting on the deck overlooking the water whether day or night is something I wish I had for a lifetime. It was so relaxing to be here and thank you for letting us enjoy your beautiful beachfront residence. Thank you!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this charming property wrapped in views of the wild ocean. I miss the sound and sensation of the wind blowing through the louvers. The sensation is unreal, and It never got old. It was the perfect amount of space for 3 adults and 2 younger children. The location is stellar for quick trips to the store and places to eat, as well as a very short drive from Kailua. You can take a short walk along the rocks, accessible through the back. When the tide is low, the tide pools are teeming with sea life, including crabs, but you must wear appropriate shoes - the rocks are slippery and sharp (I didn't let my kids do this). Richard was very communicative, as were Lianne and Ramon, who gave us helpful tips whenever we asked. Richard is also very open to feedback, instead of being defensive, which is much appreciated. Parking is a problem on weekends for Lanikai Beach because no weekday street parking permitted, so plan on going there during the week. If you're sensitive to noise, the birds are mating in the bushes March/April (as soon as the sun goes down) and their moaning does get loud at times (no one else was bothered by it - I'm very sensitive to noise). We all burst out laughing at dinner that first night because a few were making the most comical sounds we had never heard from birds before. I used ear plugs and shut the master windows and was able to manage (the ocean and wind drown out the sounds). Thank you for a wonderful stay! We hope to be back one day.

The property is bang on waterfront with amazing 180 degree view of the ocean from the living area. The next best thing was a large swimming pool on the property. It was big enough for doing laps and was regularly cleaned.The property managers Ramon/Lianne were very warm and super helpful.The kitchen is well equipped and large so easy for multiple people to work. The kitchen/living area faces east and has a gorgeous view of sunrise in the morning, similarly the lanai looks over the swimming pool and then over the distant mountains where the sun sets.The bedrooms and also good size and have all the provisions.Overall the stay was simply amazing and the home is the best one we have ever stayed.

Views are extraordinary. Very windy. Lovely pool. Well equipped. Beds are superb. Some sliders are not able to open due to salt air corrosion. Kitchen sink fixtures need to be tightened or replaced. Five minute drive to the beach which is beautiful.

We (group of childhood friends, all turning 50 this year) had the pleasure of staying for 8 days at Richard's beautiful Kailua home. As you might imagine, this trip was planned over many months, even years, and this property did not disappoint. First, what a location! Waking up each day to that spectacular view was worth the trip alone! Further, the neighbourhood was lovely--friendly (neighbours were helping us with our recycling!) and peaceful. The front-side patio facing the beach was a perfect spot to both start the day at sunrise, and end the day at dusk/dark. Many a morning coffee and evening cocktail were consumed there. We LOVED the local nesting birds (honestly, the first night, we thought it was kids on the beach pretending to be ghosts). They were the source of much amusement and laughter the entire week. Second, the house itself is outstanding--spacious, open-design, functional, and fun. Having three full bathrooms (all with shower and tub) was a godsend, and the bedrooms all had tons of closet/storage space, hangers, etc. It was so easy to have everything stored and away, which always makes for a calmer stay anywhere. Third, the amenities were great--modern oven/stove, fridge, and appliances; built in sound-system; air-conditioning throughout; lots of dishes, cooking supplies, etc.; shampoo/conditioner/bath gel in all bathrooms; lots of towels; washer/dryer; TVs/Blu-Ray players; loungers, chairs, and pool toys; and SUPER COMFY BEDS that we all now covet! We all slept great. Fourth, the caretakers, Lianne and Ramon, were very responsive to any questions and couldn't have been more helpful, especially on our departure day when schedules went a bit sideways. Similarly, Richard was super-pronto in returning any and all emails. Finally, that pool! Some of us *cough cough* became quite attached to that pool. Being able to lounge around, just us, swim, play music, eat, drink, laugh ... it was everything we wanted and needed for our Hawaii 5-O. Thank you so much, Richard, Lianne, and Ramon! You made our once-in-a-lifetime Hawaii 5-O trip one to remember!

My wife and I flew in from Australia with our son and spent a week at Kaimalino Kai with my mother and grandmother. It is such an amazing house. Great location with stunning views, a beautiful heated pool, tons of room and very comfortable furnishings. The kitchen is extremely well stocked with cookware, plates and cutlery so meals at home were convenient for us. Laundry was also easy as the house has a large washer and dryer. Probably the best holiday home we’ve ever rented, seems like they’ve thought of everything that someone would or could need. The pictures don’t do the house justice, it’s absolutely stunning! Can’t recommend it enough for a small family getaway. Considering we ranged in age from 18 months to 80 years old, and we all were comfortable and super happy with everything the house had to offer, pretty much says it all. Richard the owner was a pleasure to deal with, as was Ramon and Lianne the property managers. Really hope we can come back for another holiday, Thanks for everything!

The property was lovely. Everything was how it was described. The views are fabulous from the living room area and the windows can be opened to listen to the ocean. The location is great just 5-10 min from beaches, restaurants and shopping. We especially enjoyed cooling off in the pool at the end of the day. Our only negatives were the neighbor’s home next door looked in dis repair. This was very distracting compared to all the nice homes in the neighborhood. Also every night we heard some type of bird “crying” all night long. But despite these things we loved the home and would definitely stay again.

We have just returned from 10 days at this lovely home - It is beautiful but comfortable everyone from age 3 to 73 loved our stay - the view is of course fabulous the gardens lovely the pool perfect for all - we did use the bikes but once out of this great neighborhood the traffic is intense- we also had perfect weather bright/sunny - the ground staff very polite/prompt and helpful- it was a great stay I would hope to be back it was a privilege to stay here - Thanks to all who made this possible - the Minnesota Harts

The house is wonderful! Inviting, well-maintained, and very comfortable! I cannot imagine a more perfect place to experience the overwhelming beauty of the vast Pacific. The views of sea and sky...especially at sunrise...are indescribable and unforgettable.

You never really know for sure what you are getting when you book a place online. I had to travel to Honolulu for a meeting and my wife and I decided that this would be a great time to have a family vacation. We had debated between staying in Honolulu for the week following the meeting, but then decided to go off the beaten path. We wanted oceanfront and pool with our property and decided on Kaimalino Kai! It not disappoint from the moment we walked in. The lower level featured all the bedrooms (3) and two full baths (although one of the bath/showers was out of order most of the week) and a nice family room. There was also access to the beachfront deck and the beach. The master suite and bathroom were stunning. You can't really prepare yourself for what greets you at the top of the steps on the second floor. The wall of windows and the panoramic view of the ocean were unbelievable. This level was a combo of family room, dining room and kitchen. There was another full bath here and a beautiful lanai on the side of the house opposite the ocean. The place had everything we needed and more. We loved the pool, especially our 11 month old grandson. The location in Kailua was on the eastern end of Oahu, but had everything we needed close by and we were able to get the all the "must see" tourist stuff in less that an hour. It would have been shorter if H-3 had not been closed everyday. Our only complaints were the lack of the first floor shower (with 6 people we needed it) and that the AC was out of commission on the second floor for almost the entire week. This floor got very warm once the sun came up. We would recommend this property to anyone looking to be away from the hustle and headaches of Honolulu and Waikiki.

We recently returned from our 5th stay at this fabulous house in Kailua. We fell in love with the view and the sound of the waves on our first stay. The house is beautifully decorated and has everything you need to make you feel as comfortable as if you were in your own home. We enjoy the local restaurants as well as cooking our meals and enjoying the stunning view as we dine. The owner, Richard, and the managers, Lianne and Ramon, are very attentive to any requests or questions we have. We have stayed here with our adult children and with our retired friends. The house appeals to all age groups. We plan on returning next year and hopefully for many more years to come. Jane G
