We've stayed at this property four times now. It exceeds all expectations. Virginia and Dan are attentive, thoughtful hosts who stock the house with everything you need for a beach vacation -- from a well-stocked kitchen to tons of beach and water toys to ample towels and sunscreen. The view from the living room is hard to beat. We can't wait to return. Thank you, Virginia and Dan once again!

Our 3 generation family group had a wonderful time. The house is equipped with everything you need for a fun beach vacation. We loved if and will return if we can.

The best

I have stayed at many rental homes in Kailua but this one was the best!! The home is spacious and clean and well stocked with anything you might need including bikes, surf boards, boogie boards, SUPs, kayaks, snorkel gear and more. Virginia and Dan were wonderful to work with. Highly recommend!! Oh... did I mention the view? WOW!!

Thank you for an amazing stay in an amazing location. Perfect place to “shelter in place” for our spring break. The amount of games, equipment, and cooking supplies blew us away.

The location of this house could not be more perfect! It was beyond expectation in its cleanliness, amenities, and convenience. Everything you could possibly want for your vacation was right there. Dan and Virginia have thought of every detail to make you comfortable. This house is a big slice of paradise and we recommend it highly to anyone who wants to be on Oahu, but not in Honolulu. Kailua is a great vacation spot and this house is all you could ever ask for!

Lovely property directly on the beach. Well equipped for water sports. Owners were very easy to deal with.

You really cannot find a better location on Oahu. Everything about the home and the neighborhood makes you feel like you are part of the local culture from the first day. And, of course, the owner makes a big difference, being attentive and helpful while still ensuring you have the privacy and relaxation you came for. Thank you for a fantastic vacation.

Everything you needed was there. The view was amazing. Our biggest problem was dealing with HomeAways billing they were having a hard time splitting up credit card payments.

This is an an amazing property location with simple access to Kailua town, Honolulu, and anywhere on the island. Kailua Beach is unsurpassed and this house sits as close to the beach as any house and about in the middle of the 2.5 mile sand beach. The house fits the beach well. It is designed as a beach house and looks good from the beach and fits with and is furnished well to reflect Hawaii and beach living. Enjoy incredible 180 degree views from the upstairs lanai that will take your breath away. A wide lanai with loungers and rockers so you can sit and enjoy the ocean all day and night. Also a upstairs lanai teak outdoor table for BBQ and relaxing. The owner's hobby is orchids and there are lots of beautiful plants spread inside the rooms. The yard is well landscaped and supplied with teak lounger's, teak picnic tables/chairs, umbrellas, and tiki lights. The wonderfully soft lawn leads directly to the beach. Outdoor hot & cold shower, coconut trees, and lots of plants. Ground floor master bedroom and upstairs master, queen, and twin bedrooms give lots of privacy and yet will bring your family together with the best of fun. Everything is 1st Class. Dishes, towels, bedding, supplies, beach accessories, yard toys, landscaping and more. Nothing has been overlooked or forgotten and everything was in good condition and ready for use. Thank you so much for sharing. The only thing you didn't do...make our week long enough.

This home was perfect for our 3 generation family! The teenagers tried out all the beach and ocean equipment which is saying a lot considering how much gear was available. Beautiful ocean views any time of day. Kailua is just the right size, plenty of stores but laid back and not too big for getting around. The Sunday farmers market was great for fruits and vegetables. The owners were welcoming and helpful. We're already talking about our next trip staying here.

Incredible views, beach just a few steps away, huge yard. Very comfortable, roomy true beach house, well provisioned. More than enough beach toys, chairs, towels, etc. for all to enjoy. Perfect place for us to celebrate a special birthday that included 7 adults and a 15 month old. Dan and Virginia are most gracious and accommodating owners/hosts,. There was some construction on a house next door but it in no way interfered with our stay. The only regret we have is that the week of our stay went by way tooo quickly.

This is the ideal location if you are looking for a Hawaiian house vacation. It is on an all sand beach that extends for miles in both directions. A breeze that keeps the bugs away and the temperature comfortable. Walking distance to groceries (Whole Foods and Foodland). As well as Island Snow for shave ice - an absolute must. The house is surprisingly well stocked. First aid kit, outdoor shower, laundry soap, beach towels, beach toys. They had two air mattresses for the 2 & 4 year olds. Plenty of books for them too. Oh, and instructions for opening coconuts from coconut trees on property. That was great fun for the 4 year old to see. There is a house being built next door. During our ten day stay the noise was bothersome for a short period one afternoon. It did not impact our vacation at all. Our thanks to Dan, the owner, for a family vacation we will always treasure. Aloha!

Went for 7 nights in late March '19 from the east coast US. This is an EXCELLENT home for a big family vacation. 2 separate living areas are very helpful for times when sleeping children or whoever need some space. Wait until you see the view from the upstairs living area. Took our breath away when seeing the electric blue-green water and 180 deg view of the bay and Mokes for the first time (and each time after). It really is a spectacular view that never gets old. The home is stocked to the brim with all the items you need on vacation. Just show up with your own clothes, shop for food upon arrival, and everything else is there already. Little things like stacks of to-go coffee cups with lids, paper plates, solo cups, laundry detergent, dryer sheets, coffee filters, etc. are all there waiting for you. There are like 10 sun hats, spare sunglasses and headstraps, sun lotions, dozens and dozens of bath and beach towels, etc. The 3 kits, 3 SUPs, 6 boogie and 2 surf boards, 5 water shoe sets, 6 snorkel mask sets, 6 Kayaks and even 3 or 4 WET SUITS are all right there for your enjoyment. 4 Bikes there as well to ride into town just 4 or 5 blocks away. The owners and this place are impressive in every way. Has a well manicured grass yard around the house which is great for lounging when done with the beach for the day. Outdoor shower (no walls/curtain) also is nice to have for sandy bodies and feet. We will book this home again if we return to Oahu. It is a perfect vacation home. Only reason 4.5 not 5 stars is we weren't told there is home construction taking place directly next door (remember the open windows all the time since no A/C - which is not needed at all FYI). WITH THAT SAID it seemed like a genuine mistake and the owner made amends, was very responsive to the situation, acknowledged fault right away and took care of us. Everything turned out fine/great. Any other minor questions/issues we had were addressed immediately. I would highly recommend this owner, house, location, everything. It is 5 star in every way as long as you don't required marble bathrooms and such. I like a place you can come in a little dirty from playing and feel comfortable - not worried that you are messing it up. We loved it. I don't know how else to word it any better. Thanks Dan and thanks Kailua. We fell in love.

This was our third time staying at Dan and Virginia’s beautiful Kailua home, and hopefully not our last. The location is extraordinary - right on one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. Dan and Virginia outfit the house with everything all ages need to have fun from lawn games to boogie boards to board games. And they are wonderful owners who take great pride and care of their home. Thanks, Dan and Virginia! The Whites et al

We had an amazing time here. The location is great. Set on a picturesque white sand beach where the kids played and seam for hours and adults took long walks. The waves are perfect for boogie boarding and the house came stocked with every equipment imaginable. When the kids got bored of being on the beach, we walked back to the house and enjoyed the soft grass yard with games, loungers, etc. Daniel and Virginia were wonderful hosts. Aside from giving us plenty of recommendations, they went above and beyond to make sure everything was in working order. We can’t wait to come back next year. This place is really special.

Beautiful house! Great views and so well appointed! Everything you can possibly need is there! Hope to return!

What a fantastic location and home. Everything and more you expect when staying in a beach front house. Every detail is considered every amenity is right there for your comfort. The house is meticulously cleaned and maintained. My stay was two people there is absolutely plenty of room for 8 very comfortably, plenty of linens, house towels and beach towels. Washer and dry both very efficient should you need. There's even an electric car charger!! For a fun family trip, plenty of entertaining room, or for a romantic getaway this is the place. The beach is about 30 yards away, enjoy your morning coffee on the lenai rocking in a rocking chair watch the sun rise listening to the waves. This was truly an amazing stay. definitely strongly recommend and encourage you to stay here! I know I will stay again on my next visit! Thank you Dudden Family!!

Dan and Virginia's beautiful home in Kailua was perfect in every way for our family vacation. Eight of us (parents and young adults) enjoyed all the amenities that came with house: great kitchen, every water toy you could want (SUPs, surf boards, kayaks, boogie boards, etc), lawn games, bikes, coolers, hats, rash guards, sun screen, sand chairs, beach towels, grill... you name it! We ate most of our meals at the house and enjoyed cooking together in the well-stocked kitchen (all the spices, utensils and dishes we needed) and loved spending time on the beautiful wrap-around porch, perfect lawn and - best of all - the amazing, beautiful and quiet beach just steps from our back door. The 4th of July fireworks right over our beach were an amazing bonus to the wonderful week we spent together. Couldn't have asked for a better location - easy walks or bike rides into town (and shave ice!) - and the gorgeous beach to look at and enjoy 24/7. Dan and Virginia were perfect hosts and were very helpful before and during our stay. A wonderful vacation that our family will never forget! Mahalo!

Our party is two couples plus on two year old child. We were looking for the perfect relaxed beach house with lots of space, and we found it! Dan's house is right on the beach in the best part of Kailua, just a short walk along the sand from the beach park. The house is equipped with everything you could need for your stay including boards, bikes, kayaks and more. Dan was very helpful before and throughout our trip, just a phone call or message away with local tips. We had a very special holiday that will be remembered for a long time!

We loved this home! It was perfectly stocked and suited for our family's 10 day vacation. The home was very well maintained and totally stocked with basic pantry items making cooking and enjoying the beach a breeze. We loved our stay, thank you!

We (four adults and four children) had a wonderful vacation. The house is located on a lovely stretch of the beach--practically empty, but within walking distance of the main beach and the all-important shave ice store. The waves were perfect for boogie-boarding and the porch perfect for watching the sun rise. The house was stocked with two of everything we needed, along with kayaks, boogie boards, games, bicycles, extra rash guards, and loads more. When we expressed interest in volleyball, Dan bought a set! Our only complaint was that we couldn't stay longer... But we'll be back as soon as we can.

We could have not asked for more….the house,neighbors,beach toys and that exquisite beach. Thank you Dan and Virginia for sharing your amazing vacation home with us. Kailua is the perfect spot to relax and unwind . We will be back next year…….Much Aloha

We had a great week at this beautiful home. The location, the beach, the Island, and the home owners were fantastic! We enjoyed how well stocked the house was - from beach toys to kitchen utensils. It was very easy for us to relax, enjoy the gorgeous views, and feel like we were at home. We are definitely planning on coming back. Thank you Dan!
