This cottage is amazing! I stayed in many good airbnb places in Kailua & Lanikai and overall this house is the best. It is spotlessly clean, feels very fresh, kitchen has all you need, very private with its own backyard and neat patio. Location is hard to beat, it is at the end of Lanikai loop which keeps it away from daily visitors, yet it is only two minutes walk to sandy entrance to the ocean so you can get in the water and swim all the way to Lanikai beach, the sea bottom is sandy all the way. You can as well have a nice ten minutes walk to the actual beach. There is also hiking trail two minutes away from the house, which leads to the top of the hill and connects with popular Pillbox over the ridge, yet you will have it all to yourself. Finally, John and Melinda are the great hosts and will help you with anything you may need during your stay. I will be back.
