Wonderful!

Wonderful week in Lanikai
My family loved our week stay in Lanikai. The property was perfect for the three of us. It was extremely clean and included a fully stocked kitchen. The use of the washer and dryer was a great bonus. We made heavy use of the pool during our trip. The property has a great location. It is about a 5 minute walk to the beautiful Lanikai beach. It is about a 15 minute walk to Kailua Beach...or a quick 3 minute drive. Teresa could not have been more pleasant! She made sure we had all the comforts of home, including a lovely welcome basket. She made sure we were fully informed of any activity on the property (lawn guys and what not). This was a relaxing and memorable vacation. I cannot wait to return.
Cozy, quiet, and just right
The reviews about Teresa’s kindness are right on. Very willing to be as helpful as you’d like or leave you to your own directions. Her place was easy to find and very clean. The parking was fine for the 4-door Jeep. It’s covered too, which was great during the couple of afternoon rains that occurred. I did need a 3-pt turn to get out of once or twice. No biggie whatsoever. Beats on paying resort parking costs or searching for somewhere on a road to park.
Two ceiling fans help move the air and the window ac unit near the bed cools the afternoon heat just fine. Plenty of nice utensils and cooking items, though I didn’t bother cooking (too many good places to eat near by). The pool was quite nice to come back too after a day on the beach.
Perfect Place For Our Mother/Daughter Retreat
My daughter flew into Honolulu from NZ and I, from Oregon, for a mother/daughter week. Lanikai is just outside Kahlua Town. We had no car, but the bus system is fantastic and took us everywhere ($2.75 all day pass, $2.00 senior all day pass), with the bus stop being only 1/2 block from our rental. Downtown Kailua is about 2.5 miles from the rental and has many shops/grocery stores/restaurants plus the Kailua Town beach which is hugely popular and especially busy on weekends. Arrive in Lanikai and you drive through a lovely neighborhood with beautiful homes and beach. The beach is accessed through many coves along the main road. As beach parking is more limited in the Lanikai neighborhood, the beach is busy, but less crowded. Our studio rental was part of a family home, and totally private. Teresa was a wonderful host, explaining the bus, giving restaurant recommendations, tide information. The queen bed was very comfortable, and my daughter said the daybed (with trundle) was comfortable, as well. The kitchen was well equipped. We chose to bring some prepared food back from Whole Foods so as to get on with our day, instead of cooking. The bathroom was generous in size, shower had good water pressure, and there was also a washer/dryer. Internet reception was very good, and television had many channels from which to choose. The studio had deck off the kitchen where I had my morning coffee and listened to the birds. Beach chairs were there for us, on the deck, and beach towels were also provided. The home had a lap pool (which is the feature photo of the home) surrounded by Teresa's carefully tended garden. Would we stay here again? Absolutely! We loved walking through the neighborhood and into town. My daughter was able to snorkel on the Lanikai beach. I loved waking early, walking down through the many coves, and taking photos of the sunrise. We were in paradise,, and we can't thank Teresa enough for sharing her property with us! Karen Hayes
Our Home Away From Home - Perfect Location
This rental is the perfect place to hang your hat for a stay on the island of Oahu. The best beaches on the island (Kailua and Lanikai) are a short walk or quick drive away. It is also very close to Kailua which has shopping and great restaurants. The apartment was big enough for my family of 4 with two big teenage sons! The queen bed I slept on was super comfortable. If you need something, check all of the cupboards. Teresa probably has what you need in one of them. If you go shopping, you will not be given plastic bags. Bring them from home or borrow a reusable bag from the cupboard by the door! Don't forget to check out the pool. It was a perfect little oasis to relax in. The pictures you see of the property are very accurate, and the property was clean and well maintained. Teresa was such a gracious host during our stay. We had problems with our flight and arrived very late, but Teresa still greeted us and let us know that she would catch up with us another time so we could get settled and get to sleep. The airlines made us check our carry ons and lost them, so myself and my son had no clothes. Teresa even left me some clothes to wear in case I wanted to wash the clothing I was wearing until our situation was resolved. Having the washer and dryer was awesome! Teresa checked in on us to see if there was anything else she could do and if our situation was resolved. She also gave us great recommendations for places to eat and see. I would definitely recommend this rental and stay here again if I return to Oahu. The only tip I would add is to be careful how big of a car you rent. We had a Chevy Equinox and had enough room to maneuver in and out of the parking area. We were offered a much bigger luxury SUV at our car rental because of our flight issues and I'm glad I declined it. Getting that car in and out may have been impossible. Make sure you do the Makapu'u Lighthouse Trail and then take the scenic drive down that highway and stop at all the look outs. Such beauty. Manoa Falls in Honolulu and snorkeling in Hanama Bay was also fun. Go early to these places! Eat at least once at Cinnamon's. Mahalo, Teresa.
Perfect home away from home in paradise!
Quaint, charming, affordable and has everything you need! Teresa and her family were so inviting and pleasant, this studio offers everything you could possibly want in paradise! A close walk to the beach, your own lap pool surrounding by an amazing garden and bike ride in Kailua.
Cozy studio with every thing you need!
My husband, myself and our two kids (ages 7 and 5) stayed at the studio for 8 nights. While it was slightly on the smaller size for that many people it had everything we could need! Theresa has provided not only a comfortable place to say but a place that is well stocked both in the bathroom and in the kitchen. the bathroom is huge and has a washer/dryer which is ideal. Plenty of fans and AC too. The kids slept on the daybed/trundle and loved it. The location to the beach can't be beat. We rode bikes there daily. There was plenty of nature for them to see around the property so they had fun exploring. The pool was lovely. The temperature was perfect. Really refreshing and the kids liked taking beach breaks and going to the pool. We've stayed in Lanikai three times now and I'd say Theresa's lodging was the best overall of the three. I would definitely stay here again! Also Theresa was a very attentive and available host. We had PLENTY of privacy but she was on hand if you needed anything! :) Thanks for the lovely vacation Theresa!
