This place is fantastic. The view is incredible - we made sure to be on the lanai every day at sunset and were rewarded each time. The place itself is very well provisioned with kitchen appliances, gas grill, beach gear, and even a travel guide book. Elaine and Vernon were extremely welcoming and friendly. The house is about 10-15 minutes from Kailua and is up on a hill, so a rental car was essential for us. There is definitely lots of wildlife (and tame-life - cows, chickens, and turkeys) nearby, so light sleepers should be advised. But, thankfully hosts provided ear plugs that we made use of. We would definitely come back here!
