Great fit for us!
We were two adults plus a 20-lb dog, stayed for a month and combined vacationing with a bit of remote work. The place is located on a wonderfully quiet neighborhood street a 10-15 min walk to the beach, also a small store and couple of restaurants. Owner is nearly always onsite if you have any issues (we did not). Enjoyed our stay!

Incredible Hawaii vacation
Our host is incredibly kind and warming with an abundance of local knowledge. The property is extremely well appointed with grill, stove burners, small oven, full fridge, great quality plates and flatware. The beds are very comfortable The beach is very close So many wonderful restaurants to enjoy your favorite “worldly” meals I am thoroughly impressed with how the owner is constantly grooming the beautiful yard and landscaping and maintaining clean and safe walkways A+ rating!

Great Place at a great price!
This place is only 1 mile from Kailua Beach - I rented a bike and went to the beach,the park, shopping and dining - all within 2 miles. Clean, quiet. and roomy. Owner has dogs that are friendly and well-trained & I didn't even see them untilI was leaving. This is my second stay here and I will definitely be back!

Lovely small 2 bedroom
This is a lovely little two bedroom apartment with one bathroom. The first thing I have to say is it the host is an incredibly wonderful man, and very helpful with everything concerning the apartment and even my flat tires! The air conditioning unit is only in the small bedroom, but most of the time you don’t need an air conditioner the overhead fans usually suffice. The owner has two wonderful dogs and it is pet friendly. His border collie got used to coming to me for treats as I would come home from my families visit and my little teacup poodle of 5 pounds Would try to avoid her! The border collie, and his Rottweiler are very gentle, lovely dogs and they don’t bother you they don’t bother anybody. It’s a short distance from everything including the beach and I can’t say enough wonderful things about the owner.

Great place close to the beach!
We stayed at this unit for 5 nights. It is exactly as described. We arrived late at night but Leonard had provided us with specific directions and instructions for the unit so we walked right in. The 2 beds are nice and comfortable. There are lots of windows to open to get a cross breeze through the unit so there was no need for the AC unit at all. Plenty of beach accessories were available for our use. It would be nice if the beach towels were in the unit. We had to ask for them. Washer and dryer were a greatly appreciated and nice machines. Detergent was even provided. We only heard the dogs bark a few times in the morning but it was never an issue. The yard is beautifully manicured with lots of trees and plants. Easy access to Kailua beach for your morning walk in the sand or your day at the beach. A vehicle is recommended as it is a few blocks to the stores and shops. It is very quiet and peaceful in Kailua. Away from the busy streets of Waikiki! Easy to get around in and lots to see and do within a short drive. We had to make some changes to our dates and Leonard was more than helpful and happy to do it. We would definitely stay at Leonard's place again!

Worst VRBO Experience
I find Tradewind bungalow is not being kept safe, clean and updated to provide positive experience for its guests. - The floor mat at the extrance is so old and dingy that I avoid touching my feet on it when I enter the front door. - The big screen tv are simply left standing on tall shelving which could be tipped over by any capable toddler. - glass sliding door is cracked and broken and masking tape and paint was used to "repair" it. It is a hazard to my toddler. - the owner has 5 Rottweilers kept in two seperate cages. they growl and bark viciously at each other and at us when we return from the beach. I can't believe previous reviewer said the dogs are cuddly, that was back in 2012, with 4 dogs. - finally my biggest complaints is that the property owner uses the same washer and dryer to washes guest sheet, bedding and towels as the dog's bedding. It's only after did my load of laundry and I saw bunches and bunches of black dog hair stuck to the washer door that made me realize we have been using sheets and towels that's been washed with dog beddings. It is simply unacceptable and unhigenic and disgusting to anyone.

Relaxing vacation
We felt we were at home! Spacious bungalow. Nice shower(no bath tub). Was cool indoors with just the fans running even with 30C temps outside. Owner very accommodating. Willing to replace any item in disrepair. Was able to create great meals with the bar fridge, two burner elements, and griddle. Beds were very comfy. 1km walk to beach. Lots of beach chairs, etc. 250m walk to bus stop; #67 takes you to Mall in Waikiki which is a short walk from the Hawaiian Hilton Village.

Absolutely wonderful
The property and homeowner (Leonard) were absolutely wonderful. Everything was clean, cozy, and comfortable. Leonard was a delight to talk to. We were a 7 minute walk to the beautiful Kailua beach and 5 minutes from shopping, grocery stores, and tasty treats. About 30 minutes from all the "big to-do's" on the island. Would definitely recommend.

Prefect
This place couldn’t have been more prefect! It’s located on a small cul-te-sac, with no traffic, 1/4 mile south of town, and the beaches are less than 3 minutes away. The rental has everything you need for the beach. I was initially worried about the little kitchen, especially the size of the refrigerator, as I love to cook, even on vacation. But it worked out perfectly. I had plenty of room for my culinary supplies. And Leonard was a gracious host. Accommodating in every way!

Kailua Family Vacation
Had a great stay in Kailua - much more relaxed than Honolulu. Apartment has kitchen as well as beach chairs, cooler and bodyboards to borrow which is super helpful. Parking easy out front. Leonard was great to meet and is very helpful. Great location - short drive to beautiful beaches and hikes, and a nice variety of restaurants in town. Hit Foodland for over a dozen Poke flavors! 30min drive to Waikiki, a bit over an hour to North Shore. Check out the Poi Factory and Nico's restaurants, plus the Toa Luau and Matsumoto's Shaved Ice in Haleiwa. For hikes: Makapu'u Lighthouse, Lanikai Pillbox and Diamond Head Crater all are a good workout with awesome trails and views.
