My husband and I wanted to take a weekend trip to Kailua and Lori’s place was perfect. It’s close to the shops and beach so you can definitely drive or even walk, but it’s also the perfect distance for a bike ride so I really recommend renting some. As other reviews have said, she has two sweet dogs who are friendly and greet you whenever you walk outside, but they never come into the apartment (they’re very well trained). The space was clean and a great size for two people, with a beautiful view. It’s so relaxing to sit on the dock and watch the sunset reflect off the houses across the lake. Lori is very responsive and seems like a generally wonderful human being based on our interactions. Definitely recommend!
