Melissa’s place is an amazing location in the Kailua/Lanikai area. Despite being only a short walk from the beach, the house and room are very tranquil because you go up some stairs away from the street to get there. She has 3 very adorable cats, but the place is still sparkling clean. The only potential issue is with parking if you rent a car, but Melissa will work with you and help you to figure out where to park nearby. (Don’t park somewhere if you’re not sure if it’s an actual parking spot - you could get a ticket/towed!)
