The cottage was homey, airy, and well appointed. It’s in a quiet neighborhood with a secure gate. It takes only a few minutes to walk to Kailua beach, which is surprisingly uncrowded and peaceful. The town center is a long walk or 5 minute drive away.
Matthew and Lisa were incredibly kind and welcoming. We were greeted by Lisa, Ella, and their dog Roxy, and immediately felt welcome. They loaned us their beach umbrella, beach towels, and beach mats, and even offered to do a load of laundry since we booked a long stay. They definitely have this host thing down!
