Great Family Retreat

The house, location, amenities made this home a home away from home. The backyard is a family oasis for all ages and enough space to have some quiet time if needed. We hope to visit again soon!

Fabulous vacay

The house and the grounds more than lived up to the pictures. The location was close to everything. The house was stocked with everything we needed and more. I wouldn’t give it just 5 stars but 100 if I could.

Perfect for our family, including five adults and three teen girls.

Very convenient location to beautiful beaches, restaurants and shopping. We were in Kailua for two of our teens gymnastic competition. The pool was a bit cool but the girls made great use of it every day. And the hot tub was wonderful after long days. The house was very well stocked.

Large family home in Kailua

Our family of seven enjoyed our weeklong stay at this beautiful home in a residential area of Kailua. Beds were comfy. Kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals. Safeway market was walking distance for supplies. The backyard has a lively pool and spa. There’s a beautiful beach a 20 minute walk from the house and the town of Kailua is a short drive. Beach towels & chairs were provided too. Highly recommend staying at this wonderful home..

Hawaii Family vacation

This house was exactly as described and more. We were in Hawaii as a family for my brother-in-law retirement from Marine Corps. This house allowed us a space to hang out as a family - grill, use pool and hot tub but also a good spot to hit many attractions -Waikiki, Sandy beach, diamond head and more. Kitchen , bedrooms and bath rooms are also very nice. It was a great place to stay - Wow!

Beautiful home

The pictures are accurate. There's a large pool, and a hot tub on the property, with a large yard for playing games in - with privacy from the road / neighbors. There's an outdoor seating area to play games and watch TV. The master suite is separate from the 'main' house - which is also nice. 4 spacious bedrooms, and a nice kitchen. The location is nice as well, you're pretty close to a bunch of restaurants, Target, Safeway, etc. Highly recommended!

Wonderful Family Reunion

This was a wonderful space for my family to reunite for a celebration of life. Cousins, aunties and uncles from all over were able to join us for an evening in a beautiful and comfortable space. We enjoyed quiet time with our adult children on the lanai and by the pool on a surprisingly quiet street. Thank you

Great stay for our first Hawaiian visit

House is as advertised, in a very nice residential neighborhood. Amenities were very close by. Chris and Sara were wonderful hosts, answered our questions promptly prior to booking and made themselves available if we had issues (we didn't). If I had to mention anything, the second shower in the house was a little small but we had two other bathrooms so not a deal breaker by any means. If I'm ever in Oahu I will definitely try to book this property again! Thanks Chris & Sara for your hospitality!

Amazing location and Property.

Fantastic place for family and friends to gather! Property is really amazing; accommodations, gathering space, pool, backyard, distance to beach and other daily needs could not be better. We were a bit worried about the big road behind the house but this was not an issue what so ever. The only thing I would comment on is the overall cleanliness and specifically the kitchen. At this price level we expected something better! Kitchen is equipped OK’ish but very messy and not clean. Would not take much to get this property to a very impressive level all around.

Peaceful retreat

We stayed with our 4 kids (6-12 years) & my parents. We appreciated the pool & hot tub, backyard with avocado & plumeria trees, space to spread out or gather. Nice neighborhood & location, away from the busy of Honolulu. Kitchen well-stocked. Host responsive when sheets didn’t fit correctly. Downsides - some beds/bedding could be updated. Pool very cold (kids braved it, but hard for adults) - though admittedly we were there in December. Overall, great stay. Lovely home.

Lovely home, lovely time

We truly enjoyed our visit this past week. Though our visit was a celebration of life and not the happiest of times it was wonderful to come together as a family. Chris and Sara's home is truly beautiful and peaceful. We had a delightful time. Chris made himself available to us via phone when we called regarding our not locating the broom. We feel terrible for leaving the floor dirty after 5 days but we never could locate the broom. There were a few ants in the kitchen and the Keurig, but we quickly solved the problem by placing all the food in the refrigerator and not using the Keurig and buying a can of spray which we left behind for the next guests.
