Great location. Beautiful scenery. Perfect for the grandkids. Some of the doors could use a little WD40 but everything was really just lovely.

My family had an amazing time at Gigi’s Retreat from hours spent poolside, convenient access to the beach, and the private grass lawn (perfect for throwing a ball around). The house has just the perfect decor and amenities for small to large families. We will be sure to reserve Gigi’s Retreat on our next trip to Oahu. Also, Steven (the property manager) was very hospitable and responsive to any questions during our stay.

Beautiful house! The location was perfect for traveling with young adults/teenagers and my MIL who is 81. Great shops and places to eat close by and the walk across the yard to the beach....amazing! The home is well immaculate and cozy , pool was amazing and the landscaping inspiring. I would not hesitate to stay at this home again when visiting beautiful Oahu. You want to go out and explore (we did!) but you also can't wait to get home again and relax!

Paradise Found. Maximum Vacation Achieved.
Response from VrboOwner on 23 Oct, 2024
Love it - maximum vacation achieved (MVA) - that will be a goal of ours for all guests! Thank you for sharing,
Everything about this property was top notch. The yard was beautiful and very big for being right in the beach. The views of the ocean and neighboring mountains were incredible. The communication with the property manager was prompt and succinct. The only thing I could critique was that we had some trouble with the a/c not working in a couple of the rooms, but the property manager was on it quickly and had repair people out fast. All in all it was such a pleasant stay and we will definitely be back.

Reviewer Comments:
Gigi's Retreat was everything we could have expected plus much more! The layout of the home was perfect for us. The three bedrooms were located in separate parts of the house, which added a level of privacy, especially since each bedroom included ensuite bathrooms. The quality of kitchenware, appliances, etc. were top of the line and in ample supply. The central part of the home was composed of a large and generous "great room" where both my son and daughter could relax and entertain their children. The grounds, both oceanside and poolside, were fabulous and so well kept. The pool was a great hit with the children who also enjoyed the vast expanse of lawn, which stretched from the patio to the ocean and lovely beach. Steven, the property manager, quickly responded to the few questions we had during our stay. I would most definitely recommend this property to anyone planning a visit to Oahu.

Perfect for adults and kids! We had a total of 10 stay and plenty of room with the indoor/outdoor living. Pool, lawn and beach were the highlights. The house was a bonus, fully stocked and manager had a rapid response. Would definitely stay again! Buzz's and Nico's restaurants are super close and good!
Response from VrboOwner on 8 Apr, 2025
Thank you for the nice review and for mentioning Buzz's and NIco's - guests are always asking about dining and its good to hear it from another guest! Glad you enjoyed the home and will share those comments with the owner. Come back soon!
The property is exactly as pictured and advertised. Wonderful oceanfront location with an immense yard and private pool. Steven, the property manager, was quick to respond to any questions and provided excellent service. The kitchen was well stocked and there were plenty of beach towels for enjoying the ocean or pool. The owners obviously take great pride in this home as they should. It's a beautiful home in an amazing location. Close to town and all that Kailua has to offer.

Reviewer Comments:
would have given this property a full five rating on everything were it not for the airconditioning in one of the bedrooms not working from the beginning of our stay. The management moved quickly to fix but needed to order a part so we were without airco in this bedroom for the first half of our stay. It was something that should have been tested and known before our arrival. That said we loved everything else about the place as well as the management.
Response from VrboOwner on 1 Feb, 2026
So sorry about the bedroom air conditioner not working but glad they were able to repair for the remainder of your stay. We appreciate your comment and hope to have you back with us again soon.
