We loved the house! The pictures did not give a sense of the roominess of the home, nor the extensive outdoor space. This house exceeded our expectations in those areas, as well as its proximity to the beach! We also loved the town of Kailua, which has great restaurants, and the access to the highway to get to other parts of the island, If we go back to Oahu, there is no where else we would stay. And, Misty was such a great host! She was easy to reach, and very helpful in all of her responses. Aloha!

Beautiful house and yard, so close to the beach. Amazing location. Very comfortable bed and air conditioning.

We really enjoyed our stay. The home is comfortably-decorated, with plenty of space to relax - inside and outside. The kitchen was well-stocked with equipment for cooking, so we rarely needed to eat out. We enjoyed working remotely from the dining room table and the lanai. It was nice having 3 bedrooms with 3 baths, so everyone had their own. Close to the beach

The home exceeded our expectations! Our group consisted of my husband and I, my 24 year old son and his fiancée, and my 15 year old son and his best friend. Perfect set up with basically two master suites (king beds and en suite bathrooms in both) and a room for the boys with two twin beds and attached bathroom. My sister lives in Kailua and my parents were staying in a tiny rental in nearby Lanikai. This home became the place where we could all be together for dinner or just relaxing on the gorgeous covered lanai (great for the short bouts of rain) looking out at the beautifully landscaped (and huge) yard. The size of the front/side yard was perfect for the boys to throw a football, and the fenced back yard was so private and peaceful. Large living and dining areas, good sized kitchen with everything you’d ever need and then some! Also a great grill in the back! The best part for us was the proximity to the beach... the “2 minute walk to the beach” is if you’re walking slowly! It’s a little over a minute down a beautiful access path to the most beautiful and quiet part of Kailua Beach. The house also had so many beach chairs, boogie boards, sand castle building tools, beach umbrellas, snorkel gear for kids, and beach towels! Misty was great, reminded us when to take out which trash/recycle containers and answered our questions very quickly. She even wished us a Happy Valentines Day! I cannot say enough wonderful things about this property!

This place was fantastic -- the pictures online do not do justice to the spacious, open and comfortable feeling of this home. The house is wonderfully decorated with a real traditional Kailua beach house feel, and we immediately felt right at home. We loved sitting out on the large patio to eat lunch or play cards, and the beach access path to a quieter part of the beach (between Kailua Beach Park and Kalama Beach) is just steps away. The main Kailua Beach Park entrance where Kalapawai Market is and Island Snow is across the street is definitely walkable, our older boys went exploring on their own to get some shave ice. Large front yard for the boys to throw a football around, and beautiful landscaping all around. As importantly, everyone slept well (and even with three kids we had plenty of room to spread out--our two older boys shared a room with twin beds and a TV, and the toddler had his own room; master suite was very spacious with its own large bathroom and patio--big plus that each bedroom has its own full bathroom, although parents of little ones please note no bathtubs--wasn't an issue, our toddler just got used to being hosed down with the detachable shower head!). The house was well stocked with basic supplies and a few snacks when we arrived and had tons of common area seating and dining space. The A/C (in all 3 bedrooms and in the living/dining area) worked great, even though we had some very hot days during our stay, lots of ceiling fans helped too. Laundry outside on the patio was a plus. Property manager was extremely responsive. We really settled in as our "home away from home" and missed it when we went to a Maui resort afterwards--we wished we had planned to stay longer, and definitely hope to stay here again in the future. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your wonderful house!

We had a great time. House worked out great for us. Easy walk to the beach (2 minutes). Huge front yard. Nice home. Will stay again next time we visit for sure!

The best thing about this house is it's proximity to one of the prettiest beaches on Oahu and Hawaii. The house has everything one needs for a great beach vacation. All you have to bring is a bathing suit. Everything else is there.

My husband and I just spent 4 weeks at the Kaapuni “sanctuary” and loved it. Actually, this was our third time at this property. Waking up to the birds singing and having coffee on the lanai was my idea of a perfect Hawaiian morning. We had family come to visit while we were there and the house is a perfect size and set up for 4 adults and 2 children. There are toys galore to take to the beach along with chairs and boogie boards. The kitchen is well-equipped with dishes/utensils – anything that you might want. The grill is a super one and we used it many nights that we were there. The attention to decorating detail is pretty awesome – lots of beautiful paintings and wall hangings. King beds – very comfortable – in two of the bedrooms and twin beds in the third bedroom. There are fans in all of the rooms which keep the temps comfortable. This was the first visit that I wished that there was a/c available in at least one of the rooms – not because of heat, but because we had a long spell of rainy damp weather when a/c could have provided some drying out relief – not the owners’ fault, just Mother Nature. The upside was that even when it was raining torrentially, we could sit on the lanai and stay dry and watch all the beautiful plants turn even greener than they already were! Washer/dryer/dishwasher work well. We had 2 small maintenance issues while we were there, but the property manager addressed them in a most timely way. The grounds of this home and the proximity to the beautiful beach are reason enough to spend time here. Highly recommend this property for its location, comfort, beautiful surroundings.
