Beautiful Home
The home has a marvelous ocean view and is immaculate. The TVs are large and the furniture is very comfortable. Most importantly, the owner, Greg, is very accommodating and helpful. Our rental car battery died and he was kind enough to wait for the tow so we could make it to our luau. He was also gracious enough to return a clip my granddaughter left there. One of the best travel experiences - ever!

Every detail attended to in this beautiful home
This is a beautiful home with an upstairs living area (which allows beautiful views of the Mokulua islands out the windows and from the deck), and bedrooms downstairs. We travelled with 3 toddlers and this worked out great with lots of gear provided. Comprehensive set of beach gear also provided and the sandy part of Lanikai beach was an easy 0.7mile walk with even a wagon provided for the kids! Gregory was a wonderful detail oriented host and we were never left hanging on any issue. The deck was an amazing space for the adults to gather, cool off in the plunge pool, and take in the view (toddlers will need close supervision). As a guest you won't have control of the air conditioning system but Gregory responds instantly by text when a change is needed.

Celebration with family
The property and Host were excellent. We were very pleased with all of the accommodations, and contact with the Host. Gregory was always available for any questions and responded quickly. We enjoyed celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary with our son, daughter-in-law and 2 1/2 year old grandson. We walked about 15 minutes to the beach, Gregory had all beach equipment including a wagon and stroller, beach chairs, umbrellas and all the play toys for adults and children. We would stay at this location again and would highly reccommnend this location for complete enjoyment.

Fantastic Location!
The property was very spacious and accommodated our family of 5 very well. The view from the top floor is absolutely amazing at all times. The kitchen is very well stocked and made cooking very easy - while enjoying the wonderful Lanikai view! We appreciated the many beach and bath towels that come with the house as well as snorkeling equipment available in the garage. The house is in a really fantastic location, with various beach accessess within walking distance. We certainly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful quiet neighborhood!

Great views in Lanikai
The view from the top floor is lovely, and there is a little beach access within a few- minutes walk from the house. This property worked well for our family who wanted to revisit the Windward side of the island where parents used to live. We appreciated all the beach equipment available to us. The kitchen was very well equipped. And the linens and towels were well-stocked. Expect lots of stairs. A hose was provided to wash off sandy feet. There was also an outdoor shower at the side of the garage. Gregory wasn't sure how well it worked, but we thought it was fine. An improvement to it would be to provide some sort of screen, for when the only way to get the sand out of your shorts is to remove them. We held towels. Turns out there is no cell service in Lanikai. At Gregory's instruction, we routed calls through the WIFI in the house, but we had varying results with different phones among family members. That given, Gregory did a good job of keeping in touch with us.

Rigid rules and expectations
The property was absolutely beautiful and can accommodate 6 people comfortably. The property owner screens you before he accepts your reservation and I thought I could meet all rules but unfortunately it was very stressful to keep worrying that I would do something wrong that it took some of my pleasure away from my final week in Oahu. If you are even a couple of minutes past check out and are rushing to get out as close to 10am as possible be prepared for 4 or 5 phone calls rushing you out. With small children or teenagers it may be difficult to get out exactly at 10. He was concerned with having his cleaners wait and paying them extra but the cleaners did not arrive until 10:10. So for me the anxiety the rules caused me outweighed my pleasure and I would choose different accommodations on my next trip to Oahu.

Best Beach House
Our stay at this home was absolutely perfect! The communication with Gregory was wonderful from the start. The house is as described and in the pictures. The house provided everything that you could possibly want or need during a stay, and the AC was a huge plus! The set up of the home worked out so well for our group of six, with allowing us to be in the same home, but also not feeling like we were on top of each other. The location could not be more perfect as it is just a quick walk to the beautiful beach. We throughly enjoyed our stay, and hope to stay again soon! P.S. The view from the house is INCREDIBLE

We had a terrific time at this beautiful location! The house was neat, with all the amenities, and spacious enough for our extended family group. The views from the top floor were gorgeous. The location was great, with a 5 minute walk to the first little beach access, and a 15 minute walk to the beautiful Lanikai beach. Gregory was terrific - friendly, organized, and communicative. The snorkeling and beach supplies in the garage were a great bonus. We absolutely loved this property, it was the perfect home base for a fantastic family vacation. Highly recommended!

No ka oi (the Best)
The rental, checkin, and checkout were all extremely efficient and open. Following the VRBO rental, Gregory’s communications were well detailed and helpful, allowing our group to plan activities in advance. Because the location was so close to the beach, we could walk over and snorkel as the changing weather permitted. Gregory also provided excellent recommendations for local hiking and dining. Checkout was a breeze. Overall we had one of our best vacations ever, and I strongly recommend this house and host. I will look forward to visiting again.

Stunning venue
Everything is top shelf here. This includes the washer, dryer, dishwasher, refrigerator, garbage disposal, and enormous 90 plus inch TV in the family room. The views of the ocean and mountains from upstairs and outdoor decks are memorable and breathtaking. The furnishings are very nice, and the decorative touches are complementary accents. We found Gregory to be a helpful, kind, informative, and gracious host. This is perhaps the best VRBO venue in Lanikai. Anytime we need a 3 bedroom venue on Oahu, we would love to return.

Mahalos Gregory! Everything was perfect and we truly appreciate you!!
Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for allowing us to stay at your beautiful house. My family and I made great memories there and we appreciate everything you have done for us during our stay! Communication was on point, the house was spotlessly clean, the kitchen fully stocked with with pots, pans, essentials along with childrens' plates/cups, beautiful decor, tons of extra blankets/pillows, towels, boogieboards, sand toys, a beach wagon to hold everything (just a short stroll to the beach), coolers, reef shoes in various sizes. The upstairs entertainment living room area had a very large tv with an endless selection of channels/movies, board games, comfortable sofas with a wrap around lanai and small pool. We loved waking up in the morning and walking out to the lanai for coffee while watching the gorgeous sunrise over the Lanikai ocean, framed by the luscious greenery and palm trees. The kitchen was amazing as I was able to cook meals for my 4yo and 7yo here and there during our stay. We would eat out most of the time because the house is within minutes of our favorite spots: Cinnamons, Mokes, Hibachi, Kalapawai, Easy 'Que, Over Easy, Uahi Grill, Kimchees just to name a few. The washer/dryer inside the house was key, as we travel very light so we were able to get in several washes to have clean clothes for ourselves and our keikis. The interior decor has beautiful and embodied the Hawaiian island vibe with the wood accents, island themed art and all the touches around the house - you could tell there was a lot of TLC into the design. Gregory has been so thorough from beginning to end. We knew exactly what to do from check-in to check-out with his well prepared property rental info. We appreciate the time and effort you have put into all details for your guests to enjoy. It made a huge difference and we are so grateful for you! Mahalos for being a big part of making this one of the most memorable trips for our ohana!

Why they chose this property

This property is located within a 3 minute walk from the beach. The home is in a very quiet location and has a very relaxed feel of not staying in the busy tourist area of Waikiki and the like. Not only is the home a spacious 2200 sq. ft. home, but it especially is nice having a central air conditioning unit throughout the house. Although the weather is fantastic in Lanikai, it is especially nice to come in doors and enjoy the comfort of a cool home with central air conditioning, which most other properties do not have.

As mentioned, if you are looking for a quiet get away with a view of the ocean and Mokulua islands, this would be ideal for you and your family. This vacation rental is best suited for those that are interested in a quiet relaxing atmosphere.

What makes this property unique

This Lanikai home is located in not only the best part of Kailua, but located in the best part of Lanikai. The home also has central air conditioning for those that prefer to spend some time taking a break from the warmer Hawaii weather. Also, the home has a magnificent view of the Mokulua islands where sunrises and moon risings can be observed while sitting at the dining table. Many of those that have experienced the home have expressed their desire to never leave or to stay a bit longer. This is a most fantastic way to experience the paradise of living in Hawaii.
