Wow! Home just steps from the Beach with Private Salt Water Pool

Lovely home complete with all of the essentials. It is adequate for large group of family members (8 to 10). It is clean, neat, and right next to the beach (about 40 steps). Location is close to town and convenient to many grocery stores and lots of other wonderful shopping. The Hosts, Barbara and Harry, have provided an inspirational Hawaiian Paradise.

We loved our stay in this beautiful home. It was perfect for our multigenerational family. Every need was met for all age. Nothing was missing from Beach supplies to House comforts. Also Misty was a wonderful property manager and available when needed for questions, suggestions, or problem solving. (She even came when we accidentally caused the problem.) We have stayed in Hawaii numerous times before and this was the best beach we have ever stayed on. I would highly recommend this House to anyone looking for a GREAT vacation!

Our family celebrated Christmas and New Year’s on the sandy beach in Kailua . We enjoy spending time together . Our days were full of water activities and hikes . The house location is terrific for both water access and hiking as well as easy access to the town for food shopping and restaurants. The beach is accessed within 2 minutes by a sandy path that runs along the outside wall of house . The beach is safe for all ages with easy entrance to the water . Our daughter found a coral reef a short paddle away from the shore and was able to see turtles and eels as well as many fish . The house is comfortable, clean and has good space . It has a large master bedroom with a lovely outdoor sitting area facing the garden , an older master bathroom that could use updating but is still very functional. The other 2 main bedrooms have comfortable beds and good bathrooms . The den ( off the kitchen)has a comfortable Murphy bed and a day bed . Our 3 grandchildren shared that room . It is large with the washer/dryer area off of this room . There were plenty of pool towels available ….greatly appreciated! The small guest room attached to the garage is a few steps from the den . It is completely separate to the house . It has a queen bed and it’s own bathroom . It’s lovely . Our 16 year old grandson stayed there and loved his privacy. The pool is large , well maintained and has a very strong pool cover for security . We covered the pool as soon as the last person emerged . There is a small hot tub available off the pool . The combination of beach and pool was terrific for our family holiday in Hawaii. There were some inadequacies in the kitchen area such as a lack of wine glasses or cookie sheets etc but I contacted Misty and she took responsibility. Misty was an amazing communicator. She responds to your requests within minutes ! We met the owner Harry who showed us the house and explained the expectations for the rental . We are responsible renters who respect and follow the rules . Everyone was very friendly . We felt safe ! There is a gated parking for 3 cars and a fence around the whole property to secure the area . Our holiday was a fun one for our family . We , the grandparents , brought our daughters and their families to Kailua for a memorable holiday . All agrees that it was magical !

Location was fantastic! Just a one house walk to the beach! The pool was beautiful and great for the kids! A mile from Kailua Town. The house was big and spacious enough for all us. The cottage is adorable! Just a fantastic rental! Misty and Donna were there to answer any questions immediately, thank you. Thank you, Barbara and Harry for a wonderful house, a super fun month vacation and for the best seats in the house for the 4th of July fireworks! Penny and Jeff M.

Our family (parents, grandparents, and 3 kids between ages 7-11) had a wonderful two-week stay at this property in March-April 2022. The location in Kailua is amazing, right next to an incredible sandy beach which is safe for kids to swim in (though occasionally a bit windy, this being the windward side of Oahu). A highlight for us was witnessing gorgeous sunrises every morning, easy to get up for early during the trip due to jet lag. The house is dated but clean, great size and very comfortable for a large family. We found it had everything we needed. It’s quirky interior and exterior decorations are something we will remember fondly, even though we typically would expect a more modern design style in this price range. The highlight of the property is its outdoor living space, and especially its swimming pool. The kids just adored the pool and spent hours in it every day. It is clean, very well maintained, and comes with excellent solar heating set up. It is a salt water pool. The property is well protected, so even on an occasional windy day, it was calm and peaceful by the pool. In addition to the pool, there are also great sitting areas outside all around the house, great for getting comfy with a good book. The check-in and check-out process was easy as pie, and Misty, the host, was always available by text or phone. The property is a short walk from Kailua Market, Bob’s Pizza and Island Snow shave ice, all great places to visit. You can also rent kayaks at Kailua Adventures next to Island Snow for a great day trip. Finally, if you are into sports such as soccer or baseball, there is a great public park with night lighting a 5 minute walk to the southwest of the property, next to a Kailua Intermediate School. I believe there are tennis and basketball courts as well as a skate park in that same area. Overall, I would highly recommend a stay at this property and we hope to visit it again in the future!

The property was very private and was just the right size for our extended family of 10. The beach access was very nice and the kids loved using the boogy boards provided. Traveled all over the island with a rental car for a fantastic 10 day vacation!

This is one of the best located properties on Kailua Beach. Easy access to everything. Especially our favorite beach in the world and only 30 minutes from the airport. If I were going to live in it for a long period there would be a few things I would want upgrade. We loved it. I think I only wore shoes 1 day over the two week stay.

The place was amazing. Just steps away from the beach. The house is supplied with all you need! The pool was also a great addition. The property manager was great to work with!

We loved our stay at this property. It has a private gate to access the beautiful kailua beach. The kids loved the swimming pool and all the pool toys. Plenty of space for our group of 10. Property manager Misty was super responsive and helpful. Property was clean, it was a bit dated but we didn’t mind.

Unbeatable location—maybe 75 yards sandy walkway to the beautiful beach; big private pool for family fun. The house is big and comfortable; kinda worn in a beachy Hawaiian way, but it works awfully well for a multigenerational family vacation.
