The check in process was quick and easy. The place was nice and clean and the location is perfect. We wanted a change of pace from Waikiki and Kailua was just what we were looking for. The beach is a 10 minute walk away. You can stop by Kalapawai Market and pick up some snacks and drinks along the way. There’s also some great eats in town. Kalapawai Cafe was our favorite. There’s a Foodland for your grocery / Poke needs. There’s also Lanikai brewing if you want to grab some new badges on Untappd. We also picked up some amazing chocolate souvenirs from Manoa chocolate. There’s also great hiking close by like the Lanikai Pillbox or Olomana Ridge Trail.
