I rarely leave rave reviews, but Brooke’s place deserves it. Perfect location—literally minutes away (walking!) to Lanikai Beach, which, after having explored most of Maui and Oahu, is one of the most gorgeous beaches in Hawaii. The location alone is worth it, esp when parking fills up on the weekends. Also, Kailua is such a cute town, you’re a 25min walk or 8min drive to the main downtown area. About 25min drive to Honolulu, too.
Amenities wise, also can’t be beat. A hose outside to wash off sand, chairs and beach towels to use, a washer and dried (shared, and outside) stocked with detergent, she has it all. Inside, the AC worked perfect, there’s two units between the bedroom and pull out sofa. Shower is updated, hot, and good pressure. SmartTV also in the main living area. Parking is tight, as described, but not impossible—again, free, reliable parking is a huge perk. It’s also near the house, not on the street!
Brooke was incredibly communicative, sharing ideas of what to do, where to eat, etc and also checking in given we had a longer stay.
All together, a really great stay. Highly, highly recommend
