Location location location! Thomas’ place was just a few steps away from Kailua Beach Park which made it so easy for a family with 2 young kids to go to the beach everyday. Everything was provided from boogie boards to sand toys to an outdoor shower to rinse off. Now to the home itself. The home was perfect for a family with kids. Each room had its own air conditioning unit which was super powerful and kept the house cool when we were inside. We noticed the home was also very clean upon arrival with clean sheets beach towels etc. the kitchen was stocked with all the essentials and the rice cooker came in handy. We love that there was a patio right outside with a BBQ grill which we used a good number of times with friends from Hawaii. The unit is connected to Thomas’ home but the noise was very minimal and didn’t really notice it at all. I can’t recommend this place enough. We came because my husband often has to come to Oahu for work and we use to stay in Waikiki in nice high rise hotels but this time we decided to give a beach home a try and we are never going back to a hotel again. It was just so comfortable not having to go up and down elevators and simply using those steps to go to the beach. There is great food in Kailua and Kaneohe as well! We definitely will be coming back here again!
