Center of Kailua Bay! Licensed Beach Front Rental #1990/NUC-1774,1775

Our family of 12 stayed here from March 4–8 and had an amazing experience. The property was exactly as described in the listing and honestly even better than the photos. The home was very clean, and the check-in and check-out process was simple and seamless with great communication from the property management team. The location on Kailua Beach was perfect, sun rises were breath taking and everything was within walking distance, including local shops and Kailua Beach Adventures rentals. We would absolutely recommend this property if visiting the Kailua, Honolulu area.Thank you for an amazing stay!

Just amazing! The privacy, the amenities, the beach access, all of it. This property is the One. Do yourself a favor and rent it. The pictures look good but dont do it justice. The yard is huge and private. The cottage is beautiful and allows for a separate home for a family/teens/etc. the gift basket ipon arrival was so thoughtful.

Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed the service and property very many little careful touches had been seen to - every necessary supply provided, thoughtful and concise instructions included for operating appliances,everything sparkling clean. When there was a little hiccup (probably user error, we couldn't figure out the DVR) they came over immediately to help us. The property was beautifully maintained with lots of little touches that were so special, tiny orchids peeking out of the bushes and artfully arranged seat groupings all over the property so that you could easily relax with friends or find a special quiet spot to read your book. The furnishings were beautiful and the kitchen had everything you could possibly need with all of the equipment in perfect condition. I have stayed in many vacation rentals. This was really one of the best.

Reviewer Comments: A few issues: The Wireless Internet was inaccessible for the first few days, which required several visits from the cable provider (Spectrum) as well as visits from the Property Mgmt Firm. Eventually the problem was identified - faulty Netgear routers - and the Spectrum Tech returning on Day 3 instead set up wireless through their native WiFi-capable modems - this solved the issue for good, but not after 3 days of hassle. Another issue were the dryers in both houses. Neither seemed to dry the towels on our first run of laundry, despite trying all different settings and temps. Technicians came onsite to resolve, and they found that some of the internal equipment was faulty or broken, requiring adjustment and replacement - they got 1 dryer working (but only with one available dryer setting) and the other was scheduled to be fixed the day we left. Finally, we had an issue with flies in the main house. Despite our best efforts to keep the doors and windows closed, many MANY flies would enter the kitchen. We believe they may have been drawn to a foul smell emanating from one corner of the kitchen (indicating a dead rodent may have been trapped in the walls), but we also noticed that the back door screens did not seal the house - rather, they left a 4 inch gap between the outer door and the screen door (plenty of room for flies to enter, which they did in droves). It's worth noting that at all times the Property Mgmt Firm maintained regular communications and immediate responses when we texted them with concerns. They did the best they could in helping us address concerns as they arose, and they also welcomed us to the beach house with a tasty bread pudding with white chocolate sauce. Overall very good handling of our concerns, but the house was somewhat less than what we expected.

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house is not in great shape for a luxury rental. No hot tub, DVD didn't work, needs a renovation. We were particularly disappointed in the concierge service. We rent a house every Christmas and this was the worse we've ever experienced. They seemed stressed out and over extended and every request was made to feel like an inconvenience.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We absolutely loved Kailuana. The rental company was easy to work with and the house was amazing. The huge yard was great for the kids and well stocked with boogie boards and beach gear. We spent most of our time on the beach just behind the house. The cottage was lovely as well. The location can't be beat - two minutes to the market or shave ice. You should stay here.

Lots to do in this quiet town.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property is well located on the beach which is hidden from view from the property due to trees in back. Kailua beach is one of the best beaches on Oahu with a smooth sandy bottom (i.e. no rocks and shells like Waikiki). The backyard is huge with room for plenty of entertaining. The property comes with a shed full of beach chairs, toys, coolers, and boards. The living room area is nice with a nice sized flat screen TV for relaxing. The kitchen is modern with nice appliances. In summary you got great location, nice place, and a beautiful uncrowded beach. Unfortunately things weren't all good. I had asked before about construction noise and was told they were unaware of any. Sure enough on most days around 7AM the neighbors next door started a ban saw and talking. The property line is only about 10 feet away from the bedroom I was at. I was on EDT time so I was mostly up by then - but don't think about sleeping past 7AM in that room. The writeup of the property says A/C but I was taken aback when I read in the full document that A/C was bedrooms only. The pictures showed an A/C unit in the living room and was glad to see that yes there was an adequate unit to cool the living room. This left only the kitchen without A/C and that could get hot. The smaller cottage did have an A/C unit for its living room also but it was broken. A smaller A/C unit was supplied but it was not sufficient to cool the room. You will invariably encounter some bugs or gekos in the house due to it being nature outside. The last annoying thing was the entrance to the beach from the property is one of the only shaded areas on the beach. This seems to be known as people flock to this one area to be. I compare it to reserving seats at a movie theater and getting there to find no one in the theater, but then someone comes up and sits right next to you and right behind you. A counter-measure to this is to go out early and place chairs in the shady spots and this seemed to work. E
