Aloha and welcome to your beach house. This charming home has everything you need for your dream vacation. Bring your family and friends to unwind Island-style. Come on in and make yourself comfortable. As soon as you walk through the door the stress of everyday life will melt away.
Most of the time our Island tradewinds and ceiling fans will keep you cool. When needed, there is air-conditioning for your added comfort. Each bedroom has a tropical theme all its own. The living room even has a fireplace if you feel so inclined. The large sun room opens on to the pool area providing a perfect setting for entertaining and intimate gatherings.
Enjoy swimming in the heated custom-tiled pool or relax poolside. Shower off in the outdoor tropical bathroom. The private, peaceful garden setting will make the rest of the world disappear.
A six-foot fence wraps around the spacious front yard – ideal for playing volleyball, lawn darts, or just kicking back. Kalama Beach House is a non-smoking house, although smoking is permitted outside. It is ideally situated just across the street from one of the top-rated beaches in the world, Kailua Beach – a short walk and your toes will be digging into the white sand that stretches for miles. Stroll along the shore or take advantage of one of the many ocean activities available.
The warm turquoise-blue water awaits you! Imagine taking your cup of Kona coffee with you in the early morning to stroll the clean, quiet beach as the absolutely magnificent Hawaiian sun rises! At night, when it’s full-moon time, an experience you won’t forget is when a gigantic full moon appears to rise right up from the horizon. Only a 25-minute drive through the majestic Ko'olau Mountains to the airport, downtown Honolulu and Waikiki. Property is available for 30 day rentals.
Nearby attractions include Kualoa Ranch, Botanical Gardens, Sea Life Park, The Blow Hole, Hanauma Bay & the North Shore. Kailua Town has plenty of shopping from big-name stores to trendy boutiques, antique stores and Island-inspired gift shops that make it easy to find that special something to take home with you. A wide range of restaurants are also just minutes away offering something for everyone including the health-conscious and vegetarian appetites. Several supermarkets and the best health-food store on the Island are close by.
Showering outdoors is a perk of paradise.
VRBO Bear stayed here - 11/03/2009
After visiting the Kalama Beach House, I decided that hibernation is for the birds. Why sleep away the winter when you can experience a healthy dose of sunny paradise on Oahu? The property was steps away (less than a block) from beautiful Kailua beach and minutes away from delicious local dining. This bear did sleep, but only after days filled with Polynesian culture, sightseeing, boogie boarding, swimming, snorkeling, kayaking, hiking, and island cuisine. Speaking of food, I feasted on the delicious island treats of exotic fruits, meats, and sweets during my visit. This bear just so happens to love Spam, a local favorite.
Although the Kalama Beach House was totally comfortable and featured a refreshing salt water pool, my favorite thing about the property was the outdoor master bath. Resembling a tiki hut and hosting a rain forest shower, the master bath was a relaxing getaway that made me feel as if I were living in the jungle (without those pesky lions and tigers, of course).
I was genuinely sad to leave Oahu’s tropical setting and return to my wintery home. I will most definitely return to Hawaii and may even consider trading in my snow skis for a surf board.

We had a wonderful time. This house is perfect and in a great location. Madeline and Joe were great hosts who have thought of everything, they even found a sewing box for my mother. We hope to be back soon.

Location is everything and Joe's house has it all, and most importantly it is perfectly located within a three-minute walk from Kailua Beach. Going into town is just a short drive away. Kailua has some awesome places to shop and dine. Great size kitchen and living space, and the pool & patio to top it off.

WOW! What a place, truly paradise! I felt so free and part of Hawaii's as I showered in the outdoor cabana bathroom! Awesome, well kept property & location! I highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to experience Hawaii's natural treasures. Close to many hikes, the beach; and short walk to the market for a.m. coffee. Could not have asked for a better experience on this vacation. Truly AMAZING! Mahalo! Mahalo! Mahalo!
Owner response:Thank you Mindy and Zack you are a wonderful friend to Steve and it really shows what a good guy he is by what kind of friends he has. Aloha! Joe

My family & I spent a week at the house in December and what a great experience. It is right across the street from one of the most idyllic beaches I have ever seen and the calm waters were perfect for my 5 year old daughter. We loved the outdoor bathroom/shower and relaxing on the lanai poolside. Joe is a fantastic host who made sure we had EVERYTHING we needed, right down to beach towels/chairs, boogey boards, etc. We found it convenient to get everywhere from Honolulu to the north shore and would highly recommend this rental for families, couples or anyone looking for a stress free Hawaiian getaway.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Kalama Beach House. Joe & Madeline provided everything we needed from spices to sunscreen. The beach chairs, umbrellas, and Boogie Boards made our beach experience fabulous. The pool was perfect and there was plenty of shady seating around it. This was a great place that accommodated 2 couples and a baby comfortably. The evening breezes cooled the house and only a little bit of air conditioning needed to keep things comfortable. We didn't cook much, but the kitchen was fully stocked and allowed us to keep our options open.

To our very special friends, The most special thing about Kalama beach house, we believe it is not the fantastic location it is situated in on the most beautiful beach, nor the wonderful feeling of having our own private pool, nor all the delicious food one can cook on the outdoor BBQ grill, nor the pleasantness in being able to wake up each morning from the chirping of the sweet little birds that visit its garden, nor the tall palm tree which dance to the beautiful island breezes, but our dearest hosts who always so willing and so caring, with their heart warming smiles that can brighten up our days. Please always stay the same and we wish you many great fortunes and everything happy and sparkling for you and Madeline and your two lovely children. Big Hug!

Thanks for having us over, Madeline & Joe. It was a once in a lifetime experience. Better than we ever anticipated. Thanks for showing us the Hawaii you love...now we love it too! All our love, Tania & Stefanie Hartman One of the best things about having a vacation rental is all the wonderful people we meet. Tania is coming back with her husband to stay at our home & dog sit while we go to New Zealand!
