Welcome to Alohawaii Properties by the Sea, a registered legal transient accommodations operator with license 90/BB-0013 and registration number GE-039-001-2928-01, TA-039-001-2928-01. We are delighted to share that we have been named the winner of the 2021 Best of Kailua Awards in the category of Vacation Rentals.
Our villa is located on a private beach lane within the exclusive Kailua Gardens estate and features a beautiful pool, hot tub, and Hawaiian gardens. It is equipped with air conditioning in every room, free WiFi, and a washer and dryer stocked with laundry detergent, fabric softener, and bleach. Hair dryers, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash are also provided for your convenience. A second bathroom is located by the pool and is exclusive to the unit. The outdoor area also includes a gas BBQ, bikes, boogie boards, coolers, beach chairs, mats, and towels.
The highlight of our villa is not only its stunning outdoor amenities, but also its prime location just a short walk down a private beach lane from Kailua Beach, recognized as one of the most beautiful beaches in the country. The calm waters, thanks to the coral reef just half a mile offshore, make it perfect for swimming, snorkeling, and kayaking. You can also spend hours walking along the beach, marveling at the stunning sunrise and moonrise over the ocean.

Great location, Zak was easy to communicate with and Susie and Steve were so helpful. We would stay here again.

We stayed here for 5 days and it was incredible. The house was just as described and was within walking distance of a beautiful, quiet beach as well as several places to eat. The property owners were lovely, the pool was a perfect place to unwind, and the fridge/pantry even had some things for us to use (e.g., seasonings). When we come back (the trip was that incredible), we will absolutely stay here again.

Beautiful beach a stones throw away and just a short walk to Buzz's Streakhouse which I highly recommend. Lanikia beach is just a 10 min walk up the road. The garden around the pool was amazing and the homeowners were extremely nice and responsive if we needed anything. No street noise, the only thing you hear are the birds singing.

We loved being able to walk across the street to Kailua Beach or walk to Island Snow for shave ice. It was a safe area and the owners were great. They have some fins to borrow for snorkeling, beach chairs, and coolers to use which was so nice.

We were visiting Oahu for 2 family weddings and found this wonderful oasis. The owners couldn’t have been nicer or more attentive to our needs. The location is excellent, right across the street from Kailua Beach Park. If you have plans to stay on the Windward side of Oahu, we highly recommend this property.

An awesome place right across the street from Kailua Beach. Parking in the carport was tricky but the rest of the property was perfect for us. The beds are super comfortable. The whole unit was so cute and lovely. We ran into Steve and Susie and they couldn't have been sweeter! Great place and great time!!

We did not stay here after checking in.
The good: super responsive host and beautiful pool.
The unexpected: property was hard to find and exteriors were unkempt. Turns out there appear to be many people living on site and it shows. We did not find the property inviting or welcoming. My wife did not feel safe here.
The bad: listing photos are way out of date- all furnishings are tired and need deep cleaning. The unit had been wiped down but everything about the unit itself showed wear and tear of many visitors- lots of ew factors on the cushions and floor, the unit smelled heavily of mold, shower curtain moldy, windows not cleaned and more. Cumulatively it was too much.
The really unexpected: the host disagreed with us and wanted to clean the unit up. However, there were too many items needing attention, for which a remedy would be disruptive to our five-day stay. We immediately brought this to the owner and VRBO attention and informed both that we would not stay there and they could release it for someone else if they chose. The host told us they could not issue any refund because the unit was booked throughout our stay.
Adding to the dilemma: After two days of fruitless negotiating with VRBO for assistance in finding a different place to stay and releasing the unit so the host could re-rent if they wanted (VRBO would not), we were on our own.

We stayed here with my three young children. The place is wonderful. It's clean and comfortable and the pool/courtyard area is such a treat. The location is amazing, especially going to the beach with little kids couldn't be easier. They have beach gear you can use. The owners are lovely and live in the front house if you need anything. We would love to come back.

Short stay in Kailua and GREAT location by the beach! Unit was set up well with amenities and peaceful & quiet. Enjoyed the sitting area on the porch with the pool, hot tub and lush flora. Recommend and would return!

We were SO glad to find a wonderful property on the less crowded, less busy, less touristy side of the island! The location is perfect for experiencing the Windward coast’s glorious beaches and small towns. Yet we also found it easy to get to the North Shore, Honolulu, Pearl Harbor, Diamond Head, Hanauma Bay!
You can’t get any closer to fabulous Kailua Beach! We found it to be the best beach for long beach walks because of the hard packed sand.
The unit is very accurately described in the VRBO listing. Our group of 4 adults had plenty of space for seating and spreading out our stuff. Having the second downstairs bathroom reserved for the unit was a real help! We didn’t have any issues sharing the pool, hot tub, washer/dryer with the other units. We were happy to find lots of condiments in the fridge and coffee in the pantry!
We found the owners to be charming and helpful. We enjoyed the story of the beautiful carved palm tree.
FYI, only room for one car for this unit. We parked our second car right by Kailua beach park, on the street, just across the street from the property.

Our family of five had a wonderful stay here. Location is great, pool and hot tub were very nice, and the beds are very comfortable. Nice kitchen as well. And the property owners were very nice and responsive.

We enjoyed our time. The proximity to Kailau and Laniki beach was fantastic.
Loved the pillbox hike and multiple sunrises.
Some of the shared spaces wasn’t totally clear to me but everyone was friendly and respectful.

We loved our stay in Kailua. We came to visit friends who live down the street but I'd recommend this lovely apartment to anyone visiting Hawaii. Kailua Beach is across the street and is so beautiful, and Lanikai is a short 10 min walk and even more beautiful. The pool at the apartment was a nice break for my kids to get out of the sun, and the place was easy and comfortable for our week in Hawaii. We are already planning our next trip!

This was our second stay at this wonderful property and we will be returning again. Kailua Beach is my happy place and I feel like a kama'aina staying in this comfortable spot. The apartment was well equipped, clean and comfortable and the hosts were welcoming and gracious and available for any questions. We also enjoyed meeting the other guests. Can't wait to come back! Mahalo!

Me and my family loved our stay here. Can’t beat the location, the pool is beautiful, the premises are clean and there’s everything you need to feel like it’s home away from home. The property owners are very nice and have a true aloha spirit. Will definitely be back in future years.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It was clean and very comfortable. While small, there was room for our family to enjoy being together. Parking is somewhat restricted, so most of the time we had to park across the street at Kailua Beach Park. When it rained heavily, we had to wade through the driveway to reach our car. That was the only downside to what was otherwise a most enjoyable experience.

Would have been absolutely perfect if the weather had cooperated, but rainy days in Kailua beats being back on the sunny mainland. The rain didn’t stop us from enjoying the jacuzzi and pool and from visiting various sites on Oahu. The house was an ideal size for us, with two bedrooms and two bathrooms, including one downstairs by the pool. And everything was provided for, including parking.
We only had one issue, there was no hot water for the first few days but the owners live in the front unit; they were able to remedy the situation quickly.
Thank you to the Brysons, for the wonderful hospitality! We hope to be back next year but hopefully with better weather.

The location was perfect in proximity to the beach and our friends. Communication was easy with the owners. Nice to have access to beach chairs, cooler, boogie boards, etc. Unfortunately we walked into many small bugs in the bathroom and a dead cockroach in the kitchen. We understand humidity can equate to more bugs but still not the best welcome wagon.

It had comfortable bedding, a good kitchen and all around was a great space. 5 minutes to be in the ocean and a pool on the property.

Susie and her husband were great hosts. Susie said, “Call me for anything”. The first night we went to Kailua and got lost, as our GPS did not work. She very kindly, gave us directions and stayed with us until we got back to the property. When there were issues, she did the best she could to resolve them. Kailua Beach was across the street. We will forever remember the sunrises and the turtle that swam near us as we walked the beach. The pool was lovely, surrounded by a beautiful garden.

This is a great spot - Suzy was great to communicate with and took care of us!
It's nice to have a pool in a secluded backyard.
Clean, well cared for - highly recommend this place for an "in the neighborhood" quiet stay!

We had a great time and would love to visit and stay here again! The location was perfect, across from Kailua Beach. The property had everything the four of us needed including a kitchen, washer/dryer, A/C, ceiling fans and a pool! Zak was friendly, responsive and accommodating.

My 15 year old son and I had a wonderful time visiting for six nights at this lovely rental. It was just as described, very clean and well stocked with all of the items we needed, and that were included on the property description. The location could not have been better. We loved walking down to the Kawaipalua market, to the beach and to Buzz”s steakhouse, all of which were excellent. We also did a guided kayak tour out to the Moke islands with Kailua Beach Adventures. They were fantastic. The Lanakai Pillbox hike is close enough that I walked over to the trail head and up to the top one afternoon just before sunset for spectacular views. We saw some of the other people staying at the units coming and going and enjoyed talking to another mom and her son at the pool one day, but it was not intrusive at all. Zak was on site as well, and when we ran into him was very accommodating and helpful with questions. He was also very responsive bith before and during our visit via text. I would highly recommend the spot, and if we come back to Oahu we would certainly stay there again.

Cockroach infested condo!!! Save yourself the time, money, hassle, and most of all save your health!
This condo is infested with cockroaches big and small! The cockroaches were everywhere: in the kitchen, dinning room, bedrooms, bathrooms, in the cupboards and drawers of kitchen and closet of bedroom, on the furniture and on the curtains.
Owner, Zak, was notified and he downplayed the situation and was completely dismissive. He said it was a “little bug problem” and offered to spray. Cockroaches are a health hazard and this was definitely an infestation that needed fumigation..not a few ants that marched in and not even 1 or 2 cockroaches.. there were hundreds! And, one ended up on our friend’s face while he was sleeping! Owner, Zak, refused to relocate us at his expense and refused to give us a refund! VRBO, was of no help at all as well. I spent an entire day of multiple calls and talking with multiple VRBO representatives going back and forth on the phone to no avail! They said the cockroaches were not big enough even though I sent them videos and pictures of the adult, medium, and small sized cockroaches.
Because of this unhealthy environment, we told Zak that we were leaving and he still refused a refund. We paid for and checked in to a hotel downtown because no other condos were available on short notice. The next day Zak refunded 3/5 nights cost but did not take responsibility for the fraudulent claims about this condo.
Save your health and money!!!

Our family had an excellent time in Kailua. We really enjoyed the close proximity to the beach and the location overall. We utilized the beach chairs, boogie boards, and sand toys daily. The space and amenities are shared with two other rental units and the owners who live on site. Parking is tight but manageable as long as you are considerate of the other guests.
The rental provided all the kitchen/bathroom/bedroom amenities we needed, and when we needed something the host was quick to respond. Overall, things were well worn and in need of basic maintenance and minor repair: the windows were pretty difficult to open/close, mini blinds were dirty, the bathroom door needs to be replaced, the beach chairs are falling apart, the boogie boards are peeling apart. A minimal investment in the replacement of some goods and maintenance would go a long way to improving the overall quality of the property.
As is to be expected in this climate, there are lots of critters inside and outside the residence. Every time we opened the dishwasher we were greeted with several roaches, as well as inside many of the kitchen cabinets. If you can’t tolerate critters, this might not be the place for you.
The pool and hot tub were used by my family frequently, and provided an excellent alternative activity from the beach. We enjoyed our vacation immensely and would happily return!

Would definitely stay again- excellent location literally across the street from one of the top 3 beaches in Oahu, and down the street from another top 3 Oahu beach.

Wonderful, considerate hosts! Very helpful with local suggestions! Our only issue was with the parking, as it is very, very tight on-site but it was easy enough to park across the street. Will come back again for sure!

This place was an amazing place to stay just across the street from the beach! The owners live next door and gave us some great advice on different local spots and places to eat. Would definitely rent this place again! Not a criticism, but rather a PSA for future guests: the parking is very limited and tight so keep that in mind when renting a larger vehicle. I would say this has been the best VRBO we've been in!

I spent years as an analytic auditor - so you are getting frank and open feedback.
Location: 5/5: Most EXCELLENT!
The location of the Kukui House was perfect, steps to a fantastic beach and a short walk to Buzz’z steak house.
Our Suite 3/5: AVERAGE, at best.
There are some good qualities as follows:
Towels and linen was good
Soap / shampoo / dish soap supplied
Great high quality TV and streaming services
All kitchen small appliances are supplied and worked - although the toaster needs repair (missing handle)
Great to have a USB charging port in the master bedroom
The AC worked well - we only used it in our bedroom
Great to have an ice maker in the fridge
Suite is very spacious
Ceiling fans worked great
The small outside deck off our suite is fantastic with great furniture
Opportunities for improvement:
The living / dining room was quite dusty when we arrived - the table tops and counters needed a good wipe down.
All the interior furniture in the suite is dated and worn - definitely time for an upgrade. Couch in the TV area is torn and with little support left in the cushions
Pool area was not clean, outdoor furniture was dirty, pool water was dirty, pool deck definitely needed a pressure wash and vegetation needed trimming
Motion detector that turns on the light in the garage was sketchy at best. When we pulled our car into a very dark garage it was a bit creepy, not knowing who could be lurking in the darkness. Sometimes it worked, mostly it did not.
The bathroom door needs replacing as the back of the door was peeling badly. The toilet seat needs to be replaced - urine stains under the seat
The complete premises was advertised as non smoking ( one reason why we chose it) - and yet the two guests from the suite directly below us (from S Dakota) were smoking every day by the pool (even after we asked them not to smoke by the pool area).
The kitchen fridge compressor kicks in really loud at times
Bed in master room should not be against the wall- not easy to get in and out for two people.
Carpet in the living room is curled up - tripping hazard.
Beach chairs are mostly old and tired. Too much junk in the garage - for a rental space, it is a tad junky. Garbage cans good, personal beer and booze bottle collections, maybe not.
Windows screens all need repair and cleaning
The windows are dirty - many do not open
Dishwashing drain rack in the kitchen needs to be replaced
Thanks, Pat

There are many pros and cons about our stay. The location was amazing. Close to the beach. Plenty of space in the living quarters. The unit was not the cleanest. It was pretty dusty which caused a lot of allergies for us Michigan folks. Lots of pillows to use which was nice however no extra blankets which on the cooler nights would have been nice not to mention some people like them just for comfort. There are a lot of rules about extra guest which the hosts were great about our family coming over to visit which is the whole reason we came to Hawaii was to visit family. We were not there to do the whole TOURIST thing. We did not see many of our other co renters often nor did they use the pool or hot tub so nor really sure why the kids with us were not allowed to use it when the other guest was clearly gone for the day and no one else used it at all. The pool was only cleaned by us as well even though we only used it the day the owners said the kids could use it. The parking on property is TERRIBLE!!!!!!! Just an FYI. If you do not need to bring a vehicle DON'T. If you are driving it is a nightmare trying to get out of your car. So, thankful my husband was such a good sport about it. The owners were on property the whole time. It is the first time I have ever rented a property hand did not have complete privacy. They do live in the house in front of the rental, so it was very uncomfortable to feel you did not have privacy for our two weeks stay. They were very polite if they ever needed anything, however. Just awkward having them around our whole two week visit. For the price we paid to stay there, We should have just rented a whole house for a month.

This property was perfect for our needs. Spacious and comfortable. Beautiful Kailua Beach is right across the street, safe neighborhood, and a quick drive to Honolulu. The wild roosters crowing were a surprise the first morning but we got used to it. It was lovely waking up to the other birds singing. It felt like we were in a rain forest!
The property managers were more than hospitable. They made us feel at home.
