Great neighborhood, steps to gorgeous beach, go back and forth all day. Beach is full of families and lots of space, quiet and peaceful on the beach.Kailua beach is the most beautiful beach on the island, it was never crowded, and very clean. Minutes drive from house to good restaurants and a Whole Foods store, shopping, etc. ,very convenient .We loved the location. Safe neighborhood. Hear the waves from your bedroom. Nice back yard with beautiful landscaping and fragrant blooming plumeria, well kept. My only complaint is that the next door neighbor is right on top of you just behind the fence, and she is VERY loud. Not sure why but she plays music loudly, sits on her back porch , singing, talking on the phone and being generally very loud. I could hear her every word from my bedroom window and was actually woken up by her talking in the morning. We were at the mercy of her music selection.I was amazed that one person could be so loud and obnoxious. I almost felt like she was doing it on purpose!!! Other than that the house was great, with all amenities (no A/C, which means you have to keep windows open, hence hearing neighbor's every word) Very clean , well kept and classy. A bit pricy for not being directly on the beach I think.Unfortunately I probably wouldn't
rent the house again due to the noise obtrusion. I was happy to leave and return to my own quite home, but left the beach behind reluctantly.
