This is a great option for an inexpensive studio apartment in a location that is a very short drive or medium to long walk to Kailua town or the beach. Allison is quick to respond which makes things easier when checking in or looking for something in the apartment. We had a small issue with our stay, but Allison's responsiveness made it a non-issue and resolved very quickly. Another big perk is Allison provided beach chairs, beach umbrella, beach towels, snorkel gear and coolers which makes going to the beach that much more convenient and enjoyable.
The location and price are great. The apartment is simple and truly a studio with own entrance as part of a cute neighborhood house. Allison provides some local tips and restaurant favorites which was also helpful. There is a dog in the owner portion of the home which did not bother us (dog lovers) and barked pretty infrequently so shouldn't bother anyone.
