Kailua reviews

Guest Rating:

The best restaurant in Kailua is "Pinky's" (in our opinion). The best things about the unit we rented are location, cleanliness, friendly folks in the town of Kailua. The best guidebook for Oahu is "Oahu Revealed", by Wizard Publications.

Enjoyed the open layout of the house. If you have little kids, they'll enjoy the large backyard and the great access to the beach. At first, I was searching and searching for that 5th bedroom. Alas! There it was apart from all the action. It was actually a great room for my parents.

I hate to admit it, but I liked L&L and Giovanni's shrim shack near Sunset.

Great house, we all really enjoyed our stay. We really liked walking to the beach, and along the beach. The proximity to the town and other island attractions was great.
I would recommend this house to anyone!

This unit was lovely, exceptionally clean and beautifully decorated. The yard looked manicured. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and appreciated the little extras that were provided in the house. Our customer service was all that we expected and Verena was very accomodating and thoughtful. We are all three originally from Honolulu and live on the mainland. It was a return trip for us and we thought it would be fun to stay in Kailua and get away from busy Honolulu. Our expectations were met. We enjoyed Buzz's restaurant very much. Loved the beach access and spent relaxing time there with some wonderful photos. We drove to Lanikai beach and have great pictures of that area. We would highly recommend this unit to friends. The only negative was the street noise of which you have no control. We loved the outdoor plants and fence blocking us from seeing the traffic. Our drive along the north shore was definitely a high light. We stopped and had fresh shrimp along the way and hit Ted's bakery on the way back to try their chocolate haupia. All in all it was just a wonderful trip. We had fun shopping in some of Kailua's gift stores and returned with many treasures. Enjoyed delicious malasadas and sweet bread at Agnes' bakery in Kailua. The three of us, two sisters and a cousin have wonderful memories to share with our families and friends.

we have been home from our visit to hawaii for about one week & we have some very clear & sweet memories of our stay at two duck inn. a high point of our visit was the affability of our "landlord & landlady", marty and gay. they were extremely pleasant. we looked forward to our morning coffee at the pool. it was so quiet and beautiful there. we loved just listening to the birds & gazing at the pristine garden. the "floating chairs" in the pool were an added bonus . . . so relaxing. it was great to be able to walk to the quiet, white-sand beach that was only two blocks away. we gave this rental 4 stars mainly because of marty & gay, the pool area, the beach equipment available, & a comfortable bed. our only negative report of this unit was THE DECREPIT WINDOW AIR CONDITIONER. even in april this studio apartment was 90 degrees inside. we sincerely hope they replace it with a larger unit before our next visit.

The studio was comfortable, quiet, and privately accessible. Audry was personable, friendly, and kind enough to help us locate a PCA Presbyterian Church nearby, which we enjoyed. After four nights at the Hilton Beach Resort, we enjoyed the peace and slower pace.

The hosts were very gracious and the unit was convenient for visiting my son stationed at Kaneohe Bay.

Our accommodations were beautiful with full amenities. We loved the grounds, the pool and the house. The cross breeze throughout the house was wonderful in that no matter how hot and humid it was outside, the house maintained a constant temperature throughout. The crash of the surf could be heard from the master bedroom which was a bonus. This house is well appointed and I highly recommend it.

The owner was great to work with and very helpful with information on local attractions! The house was a little further from the beach than indicated, but it was not a problem.
