Absolutely loved this place hands down! As others have mentioned the photos don't quite depict just how nice it is.. inside and out. Has all the amenities one might need with an amazingly short walk to the beach! Charming surrounding neighborhood that definitely gives you the feeling that you're in Hawaii.. lush vegetation and perky prismatic flowers everywhere. Didn't interact too much with hosts because we simply didn't need to - everything was right there and precise instructions were given on what to do. As others have mentioned the street is a little busy at times but it's really not that bad at all. Loved the location in proximity to all of the Kailua dining options and pretty much anywhere else you'd like to go as the main roads and highways are just a short drive away. Would definitely stay here again and highly recommend to friends! Thank you Shari!!
