Lanikai Hillside Cozy Cottage with Spectacular Ocean View with Mokulua Islands.

We are a family of four with 2 kids under the age of 13 and couldn't have had a better experience. The house is about as convenient to both Lanikai and Kailua as you can get, easy walk or bike to both. It is a perfect combination of relaxed decor, cleanliness and amenities. Everything you need for the beach and day to day living is there, readily available and works. It's an easy place to relax in and be comfortable. The view is fantastic. Noni is the best and the best combination of hosts, warm, receptive and prompt in answering questions. Hands down one of the best stays we've had and wouldnt hesitate to stay again.

Location, location, location. If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of a big city like Honolulu and looking to stay more like a local I totally recommend Noni’s apartment. It’s a detached apartment from the main house and please note the owner and other guests maybe occupying the other listings during your stay. It is backed up on a quiet street at a dead end sitting pretty on top of the hill so the views are fantastic of the mokes and ocean! If you’re one to cook on vacation and looking for a full kitchen this place may not be for you as I found it trying to cook off of one inductor however, it’s a marginal trade off because having a washer and dryer on site was key for me. I stayed for the entire month of Oct 2021 and I have to say the tradewinds kept the place cool at night. On the days where a breeze wasn’t so bountiful it was a bit warm during the day but, nothing to complain about. Complete walking distance to the beach as noted and the Lanikai pill boxes. Beach was only 6-7 min walk if that. I walk pretty fast though. One key factor and a huge plus was having full access to park my rental car in the garage! I would totally recommend this place to any couples who are looking for a private get away who really don’t plan on cooking that much. I had a great stay and thank you kindly.

Excellent

Noni’a cozy cottage offered perfect views of the Mokulua Islands off Lanikai Beach from sunrise of sunset. As promised, it was an easy walk downhill to both Lanikai and Kailua beaches—which were spectacular for swimming, snorkeling and kayaking—and walking. The bedrooms are separated by only a sliding partition, so if four people, best they be close friends, as we were. We took advantage of Noni’s Oahu knowledge to find excellent, less touristic restaurants in Honolulu—as well as great beaches for snorkeling. Local favorite, Buzz’s Steakhouse, across from Kailua Beach, earned several meals.

Had a wonderful stay at our cottage. Noni made our stay as comfortable as could be. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful scenic getaway.

Lanikai , beautiful house with great view. Walking distance to the beach. Everything well taken care of by the host. We loved it!

Llllloved... the cottage, 7 min walk and you have your toes in the sand at one of the most beautiful and tranquil beach on Oahu. Noni, the owner is prompt to answer any question, charming and very discreet. Loved the residential neighbourhood. Close to Kailua for Whole Foods, groceries, drugstore , Target etc...The cottage itself is very clean and cute, beds are comfy, towels and linens are nice and plentiful. We were 3 but could have easily been 4. This cottage is a gem .

This was our 19th visit to this side of Oahu, and also our best. Everything was as promised. The view is unbelievable. The unit was clean and perfect for 4 people. The location is also perfect. Easy access to Lanikai Beach and Kailua Beach. Took the kayak out to the Mokulua Islands, an experience of a lifetime. Snorkling on Lanikai beach yielded turtles and lots of colorful fish. Noni is the perfect host - friendly and available when needed. We're coming back! I recommend renting bicycles to avoid parking hassles at the beaches.

I love Lanikai, and I love this rental!

Wonderful, quiet place! Close walks to both beaches and market if need be. Noni was a welcoming host and her place had just what we needed! My husband was worried with no air conditioning, but there was always a breeze and it was so peaceful. We didn’t even touch the touch the TV and enjoyed the peace and quiet. Thank you Noni and if we make it back to Hawaii we will definitely stay here again!
