カイルアビーチとラニカイビーチ近くのオープンプランラッシュガーデンホーム

Perfect guests. Considerate, clean, easy-going, quiet, and obviously enjoyed themselves. We'd welcome them back anytime.

When this family stayed in our home over a year ago, the house next door was under renovation. It was supposed to be finished. Eventually it was completed. Phew! RE: The dirty self-cleaning oven. Cleaning svc. forgot to turn a switch. I offered to have them return to clean whatever the family felt was dirty. The offer was refused. For the record, we have a new cleaning service. We didn’t answer this family's letter as we don’t respond to threats. The review implies that mice & rats were in the house (there was none) & compared them to geckos, small lizards that don’t hurt people, eat insects & poop. Gecko diapers? 20 years in Hawaii & we’ve never seen 8 geckos at once inside. Possibly they were outside? Outside lights attract insects which, in turn, attract geckos. The light switch (not socket) that crackled was replaced after their departure. If they had mentioned it right away, not in a letter 2 months later, it would have been replaced then. We expect renters will notify us if something is broken so we can repair it. We asked the renter to tell us if they saw ants in the house. Our pest control service addresses such problems in between regular service. No mention of ants until we got the letter. Note: The so-called one-foot drop from kitchen to dining area is a small, 5 ½ “-step. This family booked 9 nights (not 10) & paid a package rate less than the open rate. Our cancellation policy also applies to early termination. No refund unless we book the time period left on your rental. If we book the time period left we will prorate the number of nights you have stayed at the current open nightly rate for that time period. Any balance remaining would be refunded less cleaning fees and termination fee. Construction on adjacent properties or conducted by City, County or State is not reason for termination of rental agreement, nor reason for refund of any monies. Contact with insects, rodents & geckos and/or their droppings inside or outside of the house is not reason for termination, nor reason for a refund of any of your monies. Hawaii is a tropical climate in which these creatures flourish. We make every effort to hold your interaction with these creatures at an absolute minimum including regular professional pest control. We have welcomed 250+ families over the years. Less than a handful of complaints is testimony that we are responsible, honest homeowners. Most comment on how clean & quiet and like home the house is. Our advertising is not false.

Having guests choose to stay at our home again is a huge compliment. And, it's so much fun to see them again. We hope to see this lovely family again in another couple of years. Thank you for being such great guests!

No we are not ON the beach. However, our home is an easy 10-minute walk from the nearest public beach access to world-famous Kailua Beach and similar distance to a supermarket and several restaurants and small stores. If you can walk, you can do it whether you are 4 or 84. And, the weather is almost always permitting.
