Absolutely Oceanfront - 60' Waterfall Lap Pool

10/10 Excellent

"it was wonderful no complaints"

Just steps from the sand—enjoy a pool, hot tub, bikes, beach gear & more!

8/10 Good

"The location was so close to the beach which made it nice to not have to drive or find parking. Overall, the property was nice. Parking was pretty tight and difficult at times with other tenants renting in the same location, but everyone worked together to make it work. Host was responsive and professional when we reached out."

Less than 1 min walk to Kailua Beach- NUC#1990/NUC-1760

10/10 Excellent

"Hosts were so kind and amazing to work with. The location is perfect - SO close to the beach! The pool was perfect for our kids when they wanted off the beach but weren’t done swimming. As others stated, big vehicles are hard to park, we had a minivan that we parked just down the lane with no problem."

Kailua Kai/Beach Front Licensed Rental #1990/NUC-1780

10/10 Excellent

"Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: THERE WERE 7 OF US, AND THE ACCOMMODATIONS WERE GREAT.. EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT...TOP QUALITY ITEMS, BEDS WERE VERY COMFORTABLE, EVERYTHING YOU NEED IN A KITCHEN IF YOU WERE TO COOK...BEACH GEAR WAS TOP QUALITY, AND OF COURSE KAILUA BEACH IS UNFORGETTABLE...2 CARS FIT IN PARKING AREA WELL, ALTHOUGH GETTING TURNED AROUND TO HEAD OUT THE DRIVE WAS A LITTLE CHALLENGE WITH 2 CARS, BUT WE FIGURED IT OUT AND DIDN'T HAVE PROBLEMS. IF I NEED RENTAL FOR 7 OR 8 AGAIN, WOULD DEFINITELY BOOK THIS HOME. WAS AS CLOSE TO BEING "HOME" IN KAILUA AS I COULD BE."

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

10/10 Excellent

"This rental was perfect for us. We traveled with five adult kids and it was a perfect size. The guest house really allowed everyone to find individual space if needed. We loved having our own beach space and access. The houses look pretty basic from the outside but are beautifully renovated on the inside. The beach and Kailua Bay are stunningly beautiful and wonderfully uncrowded. Light sand and turquoise water. We loved walking down to the Kalapuwai Market every day. Loved being walking distance to town. Our two teen girls walked to town every day, loved the boutique shopping. The welcome basket of snacks was lovely. The games are great, we played scrabble every day! The huge television and incredibly comfortable sectional in the main house were perfect for movie nights and World Cup watching. This house is expensive, but it was well worth it and surpassed our expectations. We did ask that the foliage by the beach lanai be trimmed a little more because when sitting down we had no water view. Overall fabulous, I hope to be back."
