Lovely Private Kailua Cottage

Excellent stay! Great, clean space. Really loved the outdoor shower and seating area. All the beach accessories you need to enjoy beautiful Laniaki and Kailua beaches. Loved the convenience of walking to restaurants and shops. Awesome, highly responsive hosts. Wouldn’t change a thing and would definitly rebook if back in the area.

The cottage was very comfortable and convenient for our stay in Kailua. Many thanks to Tobi and Yvonne for their great hospitality! They thought of everything to make our stay as comfortable as possible. We definitely want to stay again on our next visit to Kailua. 🌺

Gracious host. Very welcoming. Very comfortable lodging in a central location convenient to the beach and vibrant town of Kailua.

The rental was wonderful in every way you can think of. The inside was clean, modern, air-conditioned, and had plenty of space for the 3 adults in our group. The kitchen was basically fully stocked with pots/pans and most major appliances (toaster, coffee maker, blender, kettle, etc.). They really included everything you could think of, even a couple of umbrellas for any larger bouts of rain when you plan to go for a walk. Tobi was thorough with messaging and didn't interrupt the vacation, but was quick to respond to the few messages I sent him and was available in person if we needed anything at the drop of a hat. 7 minute walk to the major shopping center and restaurants, 15 minute walk to the beach (an Island Snow shave ice in both directions), and everything on the island within about 1hr 30min at max. We enjoyed our stay immensely and will not hesitate to rent this space again next time we're on Oahu.

Tobi and Yvonne were the perfect hosts. We thoroughly enjoyed our 8 day stay in their magnificent cottage. It was the perfect place within proximity to everything in Kailua. The only beach items we needed were our bathing suits, they provided everything else. They even did a little something for me on my birthday. When I return I want to stay at their cottage again!

Beautiful, comfortable cottage in Kailua town. Wonderful accommodations! Very clean and equipped with all one would need to have a great stay. Manager very friendly and attentive. Enjoyed our stay!! Would stay there, again!

Tobi and Ivonne’s place was the best VRBO we have ever stayed in. The location, cleanliness, well equipped home was wonderful. We will definitely return and have suggested their place to family and friends.

Extremely clean, modern, comfortable cottage with all the comforts of home! By far one of the best rentals that we have stayed in. The hosts, Tobi and Yvonne were very welcoming. Communication was great throughout the whole process. They made sure we had everything we needed beyond the amenities offered!

Tobi and Yvonne were very friendly and responsive hosts. The apartment was squeeky clean and nicely furnished. It's only 15 minutes walk to the beach and near a lot of retail shopping, but is also quiet. Tobi and Yvonne have a lot of supplies available for beach and town activities, including chairs, bicycles, towels, etc. The check-in and check-out process is highly automated and there is an "Alexa" in the apartment which can answer most of your apartment questions. Tobi works next to the property (ask to see his recording studio!).

What a pleasant find. A quiet enjoyable cottage. Really appreciated the beach supplies. Wish we had planned to stay longer and hope to come back one day.

Tobi's cottage was perfect for our family! His communications were timed right and had lots of local information about places to eat, get groceries, etc. He was available via messages and was prompt with his responses. The unit was spacious and well appointed. As rental owners, we notice details, and Tobi had them all covered, and then some. We used the bikes to ride to the farmers market, goggles for ocean exploring and the washer and dryer to keep our bags light. Tobi is onsite, so anything we needed, he was right there. We broke a glass and lost a towel, and he was reasonable and kind about it when we told him. We even extended our stay and he was easy to work with and incredibly accommodating! This place is super close to shopping and food, as well as the beach. Parking was free and easy on property. This will be our go-to place for our Oahu stays! Thanks Tobi and Yvonne!!

We enjoyed our stay immensely.

Everything in earlier reviews is spot on. The cottage is all new, very clean and comfortable. We stayed for ten nights and felt right at home. Quiet for sleeping but you couldn’t beat the location for ease of access to great restaurants and grocery stores. Plus the beach is a five minute bike ride (bikes provided) or 15 minute stroll. Tobi is super easy to communicate with and full of great recommendations. Definitely recommend!

This property is so well thought out and beautifully decorated. The bed is extremely comfortable, and the living room space is great for hanging out. Excellent location, easy walk to both the beach and town and the hosts had lots of great suggestions. The bikes and beach chairs came in very handy. We would stay again!

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay at Toby's very recently remodeled guest house. Location is great -- about 15 minute walk to Kailua beach, and 10 minutes from restaurants, brew pubs, groceries, and great breakfast and coffee places. Toby has set up the place with all the conveniences needed, whether that is a bike cruiser, or beach chairs, or micro fiber beach towels, or sitting in the patio garden sipping wine in the evening or coffee in the morning. It was very quiet while we there in the evenings, and the bed is super comfortable - we slept really well. We didn't think we'd need the mini-split AC units - there are two - but they came in handy. At your moment of need, Toby has it set up so whatever that need is, it's at the ready. We loved it and will be back!

We loved our stay at this perfectly appointed 1 bedroom apt. The hosts were very gracious and responsive to any needs or questions we had. The space is very clean, organized and was the perfect amount of space for my husband, myself, and our young children. The location is very close to great shopping in Kailua and the beach. Completely walkable location. Most impressive was despite being close to the main street, there is literally zero noise here. Cant wait to come back again!

Tobi and Yvonne the rental hosts were great! To start we were traveling with an infant and they let us check in early so we could get her situated. The cottage was very clean, updated and comfortable with all the amenities and more. Great location and very welcoming couple. We definitely will be back.
