This place is perfect if you are looking for an Aloha getaway. Kailua is a great location for more local vibes. Loris home is walking distance to town with local food and shops. Also located near the beach, even on the weekend the beach was not very crowded. I have stayed in the Waikiki area which is great if you want a busy vacation. This stay my wife and I wanted a slower vacation with some quiet quality time together. We did venture north from some activities such as a visit to the Polynesian cultural center. Would recommend this location and staying with Lori to anyone.
