We lived in this unit for 6 months and couldn't have been happier. The unit is conveniently located to shops & restaurants, walking distance to my favorite beach on the island, and nestled in a safe residential neighborhood. The apartment is clean, has everything you need, and pretty spacious. The large lanai was our favorite space. Scott is very reasonable and easy to work with. He is attentive to needs and concerns while also making you feel like the space is yours. The location was absolutely perfect for our family and we're extremely grateful to have found it! Would love to visit again some day.

Our family of 5 enjoyed our time in this home. Kailua is a great home base to enjoy Oahu. We loved being able to walk easily to the beach. The beach provided a small surf break for long boarding which was great for my kids. Kailua is also a great spot for kiteboarding. We had plenty of wind in January. Thanks Scott for all your suggestions on hikes, food and surf spots. The house was comfortable and easy to feel at home while we were there. I only wish we booked a longer stay.

My husband and I stayed in Scott’s place for a month, working the first few weeks, and joined the last week by 2 of our kids + their 2 friends. Having three comfortable bedrooms and two baths, plus a huge, comfortable main room and gorgeous lanai, allowed everyone to spread out. Scott graciously provided a beach umbrella, two snorkel sets and four boogie boards, plus coolers making for great days at the nearby beach! Scott’s place was perfectly represented. However, my expectations and failure to adequately research meant I assumed air conditioning and a pool. It has neither. Scott provided lots of effective fans, and to be fair, the ocean breezes kept the temperature quite comfortable. Adjacent to the rental, Scott has a larger rental with a pool, which was occupied long-term by a family relocating to HI. Unfortunately, their 5-year-old enjoyed screaming as her preferred method of communication, frequently in the midst of our business calls, and at 5:30 am on Christmas. Scott was a gracious, conscientious, and attentive host, as appropriate. I recommend his home as a great value in a fantastic location!

The condo was clean, excellent location close to the beach and grocery stores and spacious. The girls needed something very comfortable since they were studying online throughout the day. Scott, the owner, was very attentive and easy to communicate with and answered the emails through VRBO almost immediately. The only negative thing is there is no A/C and it was a bit warm for them since they were in the condo all day studying. At night the temperature was fine. Overall they loved the experience and lodgings.

We had 6 of our children (adults) and 8 grandchildren come to visit at different times. The unit is perfectly set up for our purpose. Scott was very accommodating , asking if everything was ok every time we saw him. What can you say about the beach which was 5 min walk and loved by everyone. Loved the town which is not touristy, it provides all your needs. There was a fair amount of traffic noise during the day but quiet at nite. Aside from the lovely beach we all enjoyed the bed on the lanai. Mahalo Scott. Aloha

We had a great time in Kailua at Scott’s house, we especially enjoyed the proximity to the beach! Thank you Scott for being a wonderful host. See you soon!

We had a great stay at this property. The location is excellent – easy access to beach, restaurants and groceries. About ½ hour from Honolulu. We had 3 couples stay there and there was plenty of room for all of us. The master bedroom suite is particularly nice. The spacious lanai is an especially nice feature. We used it a lot. The owner, Scott, was very helpful relative to the property and things to do on Oahu. Be aware that this is a second floor property so one flight of stairs.

We had an excellent stay in Kailua. The place was clean, spacious and well maintained. The location is great with easy beach access and close to restaurants and many shopping opportunities in town. Scott, the owner, was extremely helpful and easily accessible with communication. We appreciated the great advice and tips on what to do and where to go. The large lanai was great to hang out on after a day at the beach with a nice breeze blowing through. We will being going back to Kailua soon and will definitely stay at this place again! We had no issues or any downsides to this place.

Our month of January, 2018 at our "Home Away--from home" was outstanding. My wife and I enjoyed it as did our family members to joined us at various times during the month. We pass along our compliments to the rental team of Richard, Christ and Beth and owner, Scott. This rental home met our needs and wants for all of us.We thanks Chris and Beth for the quick response to our requests. It was a pleasure to be able to walk to the fine beach and we appreciate the information we received for trips we made on Oahu including the North Shore, Waikiki, Mocapuku LightHouse and others. The home we had was excellent and well cared for.. . .This was our fifth visit to Hawaii including one in 1955 when I served in the army. And it was one of the best trips if not THE best, thanks for you all. We recommend other families visit here and we thank the rental team for helping us have a memorable month. Aloha and mahalo a nui.

Excellent communication with the host, outstanding location just 5 min walk to the beach, clean and has everything you need for an extended stay. It was great for me and my three kids.

We had a fantastic vacation at this rental. It is very clean and spacious and the lanai gives you a great outdoor space any time of day. The area is breezy which is really nice for sleeping. We had a short walk to the most amazing Kailua Beach. Sand is beautiful and the ocean is warm. There is a grocery store a two minute drive from the rental and we were only 30 minutes to Honolulu. The boulevard this rental is located on has some traffic but it is not too noisy, just makes you feel like you are a local. I would stay at this rental again the owner was helpful and we had access to boogie boards and chairs to the beach. Just lovely.

We absolutely loved this quiet neighborhood property with its 5 minute walk to the beach. The owner supplied us with all the beach gear we needed. He was helpful with all of our questions and requests--allowing us to truly make the most of our stay in Kailua. We were able to easily drive to numerous adventurous hikes, easier walks, serene beaches, places to eat and shop, Waikiki, and the North Shore for activities. I couldn't believe that the property supplied everything we needed with the exception of food and personal supplies. Laundry facilities were very convenient. The property layout was incredibly spacious for our group of 6. The 3 bedrooms and 2 baths made it convenient and private. The kitchen and gathering room was a great space with a very large couch. We loved our personal lanai to eat out on and see the views. My husband was initially worried about no a/c, but the windows did a great job of keeping the place cool and comfortable. It was evident that the place was new and in immaculate condition. We would definitely stay here again!! Thanks for your hospitality.

Best location. 5 min walk to the beautiful beach. House is nice n clean. Big kitchen was plus for family gathering.

Our family of 5 stayed at Kailua Mountain View for Christmas vacation this year. The rental was just the right size for us. All the kids had their own beds and a nice bathroom to share. We had a spacious master bedroom with a good sized bathroom. Everything we needed to enjoy the beach was ready for us... towels, mats, boogie boards, etc. The walk to the beach was easy! We even spotted the Presidential Motorcade several times on our daily walks. The rental was comfortable, clean, and a perfect location for us. Thank you for helping make our stay in Kailua so nice.

We met the owners they are very nice, the house is very nice and close to the beach. The only downside is the street it's on is quite busy even at night.

This condo is nice, well maintained and good ventilation, as other reviewers have mentioned. We stayed in Oct, when the weather was both hot and humid and rainy. There is no A/C, so being on the second floor and having the ventilation from the sliding doors in the kitchen and master bedroom were key to keeping cool, especially at night. The owner is on site, in case there are any issues. Beth and Richard were very professional, courteous and welcoming, over email before our arrival and upon arrival. We stayed with five people; four adults and one child -- which seemed about the max that the condo could have. The kitchen is great if you need to cook while on your trip -- nearly completely stocked with all that you'll require (plates, bowls, cups, glasses, utensils, pots, pans, etc.) which worked well for us with a young child. Location is a bit noisy with street traffic at most hours on Kalaheo. But in the rear bedrooms of the condo, you don't hear the traffic at night. Close to the grocery store and overall a nice place to stay in Kailua.

Our recent stay at this VRBO was great. Our email exchange with Richard prior to our arrival was courteous and informative and we really appreciated that the owners were able to help us with our unexpected change of schedule. Our check in on arrival with Beth was lovely. She made sure we felt right at home and very welcome. The house is well maintained, well ventilated and very well located close to the beach and not far from the supermarket. It's perfect for a relaxing home away from home holiday in lovely Kailua.

This VRBO is perfect. It sits on a gorgeous piece of tropical property a short walk to Kailua Beach. The master bedroom and spacious bath are in a space of their own and open to the lanai. The other two bedrooms are spacious with new beds and bedding. All new furniture, plantation blinds, lots of windows to create plenty of cross breezes. Clean, comfortable, and convenient. We loved this place for the walks on the beach and living in a nice neighborhood instead of fighting the hustle, bustle, crowds of Honolulu and Waikiki. You are among locals, not tourists. Some street noise but quiet at night and easy to ignore in the day. The living/dining/kitchen is one room, keeping getting together convenient and inclusive. Plenty of separation and privacy between bedrooms for alone time. The well designed layout of the house sits above the large garage and the main house is also a VRBO. However, entrances are all separate and your privacy is intact. We would definitely stay here again. I would not recommend this VRBO for a party group out of respect for the neighbors but perfect for adults and families who are in Hawaii to enjoy nature, the outdoors, and relaxing. It was perfect for us - 2 couples and 1 single person. The persons managing the property were so friendly and gracious as we prepared for our stay but left us alone once we were situated. However, they were only a phone call away if we needed them, which we didn't. Great restaurants in town, spent mornings walking on the beach, kayaking in Kailua Bay, and driving over the hill to Pearl Harbor for family get-togethers. Very convenient to stay here and access all parts of the island, easily avoiding the traffic around Honolulu.
