Perfection! This is my fourth time staying in Kailua and I have to say, this Airbnb was the best of the best. Conveniently located with all the amenities you could need: luxe beach chairs, cooler and beach towels; kitchen essentials including details like tiki glasses for Mai Tais and plastic wine glasses. It's steps to the beach with easy parking, next door to a casual breakfast/lunch cafe/convenience store (grab a bagel, fresh fruit, and a latte to enjoy in your private garden), and across the street from President Obama's favorite shave ice spot.

We stayed over the 4th of July weekend and were dazzled by the fireworks over the water (and didn't have to drive or fight crowds -- just strolled on over and picked a spot on the beach). I also came down with a rough cold the first day, so the bonus sunroom was a great place for me to quarantine myself and enjoy the view for a couple days until I was fit to go outside.

Cheri was such a great host -- as were her cats and chicken! We were greeted upon arrival with a fabulous basket of goodies: delicious pineapple, three little bananas fresh from her tree, coffee, and macadamia nuts. Goodness, I could go on (and I have).

Thanks again, Cheri!
