The Koolau loft is a great place to stay in Kailua. Kailua isn't too large, but the location is ideal as it's only a short walk from many restaurants, stores, etc. The hosts were incredibly responsive to all my messages, even before I booked the place. They respected our privacy but were always accessible. Although I only saw Brian once during our stay, he seemed incredibly friendly and outgoing. The space itself is just as it appears in the photos. It's very modern yet cozy and clean. Has everything you need for a great time: kitchen including pots/pans, bath/shower, TV with Netflix, board games etc. The self check-in was a breeze, and our stay couldn't have been better. Highly recommended !
