"We had the absolute best time here!! The rental is clean with everything you need to be comfortable. I love the little kitchenette, so that we could make food and not have to eat out every meal. The location was exactly what we were looking for! It was just a quick 1-2 min walk to the beach to watch the sunrise. Lanakai beach is just a few minutes away by car. Kailua is such a cute area….central to many small local shops. I love supporting local! Our host, Zak, was super nice and accommodating of our needs. Actually, all the people we met were super friendly and welcoming. This really was the best trip!"
