Would not stay again
Pros: The location across the street from Kailua Beach Park and within walking distance of magical Lanikai beach is amazing! The owners are very warm and generous with pool and beach gear. We also loved having a pool right outside the door. Cons: We saw 10-20 cockroaches per day on the counter, fridge and dish cupboards and what looked like cockroach excrement under the knife block and next to the fridge. The lack of a stove and the fact that the microwave stopped working in the middle of our stay (without much effort to fix it or provide a replacement) made the kitchen unusable for us. The screen upstairs was broken, so the only airflow came from a loud window AC unit. Windows were dirty. There is no bathroom on the first floor. To us, stairs up to the second floor didn’t seem safe for young kids. I appreciated the owner’s quick response times and sometimes creative solutions (duct taping the screen), but overall I don’t feel the pros outweighed the cons. We were disappointed to pay so much for what turned out to be not a very relaxing stay. Next time we will stay in Waikiki and plan a day trip to Kailua.
