Expect to feel at home right away. Having a carport to park under with the hot weather was a nice feature. The place is so spacious and the kitchen / dining area was very relaxing. We felt at ease preparing food and hanging out after our adventures during the day. We appreciated the extra touches like beach gear. Great location close to the beaches and downtown Kailua, while being in a quiet residential neighborhood. We plan on staying longer the next time we visit!
