The condo was an excellent home away from home for our 30-day stay in August 2025. Located in Ko Olina, you have Secret Beach 100 yards away and the lagoons and restaurants within a short walk. More restaurants, shops and grocery stores are just a 10 min drive away in Kapolei.The kitchen was well equipped for preparing just about any meal you desire. The lanai is perfect for breakfast in the morning and sunset drinks in the evening. The layout as two masters is really conducive to two couples. Richard has provided so many beach chairs, snorkeling gear and boogie boards - even a wagon to get it all to the beach. We would definitely recommend this place to friends and family.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time in O’ahu at Kai Lani Estates from July 1-July 31. The condo was wonderful! The kitchen was so much fun to cook. There were spices and seasonings to choose from. Lots of pots and pans. The two master bedrooms were great with a powder room as well. Restaurants and shops close by. Not to mention the restaurants and bars in the hotels. Ask about the Beach and Sports Club where you can work out at the fitness center, paddle board, and so many activities! The rest of the island was complete magic! Make your magic by enjoying the culture, the activities around the island, Waikiki, north shore, and so much more!
Our third stay at Richard’s condo in Kai Lani was nothing short of fantastic. The complex is beautifully landscaped and thoughtfully designed, creating a serene and inviting atmosphere. The pool and hot tub are pristine—a perfect way to unwind after a day at the beach.Just a short walk away is Paradise Cove, a small, picturesque beach ideal for snorkeling and safe for kids to enjoy the waves. Several other stunning coves are just minutes down the road. The location is also incredibly convenient, with restaurants, coffee shops, an ice cream shop, and various stores within a five-minute walk. Plus, a quick drive takes you to multiple grocery stores, including Costco.Richard’s condo itself is a dream. The spacious, open-concept kitchen is well-equipped, making it easy to prepare meals. Both master suites feature comfortable king-sized beds, and the tasteful decor makes the space feel like a true home away from home. We are already looking forward to our next visit!
We stayed 5 weeks. The neighbors are so friendly and the beds are very comfortable. Richard supplied all the beach toys/snorkel gear we could want. It’s so nice to be able to walk to the lagoons. It was great and we would come back again in the future.
This property is in a pristine location away from the hustle and bustle of Waikiki and nestled in Ko'Olina which has restaurants, shopping and beaches. The condo itself was bigger than expected and the sunset views are a chef's kiss as it's on the west side of the island. It's also about 3 minutes from electric beach for some good beach/snorkel days. I lovedy stay here for my wedding and honeymoon. Would stay here forever if I could!
Overall a GREAT place to stay: view, close to activities & shopping, nice neighbors & workers, rooms, beds, and parking. Negatives were: we couldn't get very hot water, kitchen appliances need replacement (fridge & dishwasher), and living room furniture needs replacement (uncomfortable to sit in, no ottomans, we were vacuuming a couple of times daily due to feathers shedding, and we ended up putting sheets on them to avoid their scratching us). We WILL still be recommending this place to others, with the expectation that some of the items noted will be taken care of. A big thanks to the owner for all of the water gear and for buying a beach wagon for us to haul it all on. As a handicapped person, this made a HUGE difference in the amount of things I could take part in!
Four adults all over 60 celebrating my brother and sister-in-law's retirement. The condo was perfect for the four of us. Having two beautiful master suites (really comfy king beds!) was lovely. The bathrooms are huge and luxurious. The kitchen had everything we needed to make nice meals and eat in occasionally. We spent a huge amount of time on the lanai because of the gorgeous ocean view. A real bonus is the decor and artwork in the condo. The second bonus is the location. We walked down to the beach we viewed from the lanai every night for the sunset. There is also a cove beach with amazing snorkeling that is completely walkable, about a 1/4 mile away. We saw over a dozen different types of fish as well as swam with a sea turtle and watched over a sleeping monk seal on that beach. Honolulu, the North Shore and eastern shore of the island are all very accessible by car. Within Ko'olina itself are shops, tons of restaurants, luaus and just about everything you need. It really was a perfect vacation. Thank you, Richard!
We were lucky enough to stay in Richard’s condo for a second time. The complex, Kai Lani, is beautifully landscaped and laid out. The pool and hot tub are clean and a fun place to relax after a day at the beach. A quick 3 minute walk away is Paradise Cove, a small beach where you can snorkel and kids can swim safely in the waves. You will find three other coves a few minutes down the road. There is a strip mall a five minute walk away with restaurants, coffee shops, an ice cream store and stores. Richard’s condo is well equipped with a large open concept kitchen. There are two master bedroom suites with comfortable king sized beds. The decor is tasteful and feel like your second (dream) home. We cannot wait to return and have already inquired about our next stay!
As advertised, this property is beautiful and a perfect location allowing for rest and relaxation. If you get the opportunity to stay at this site, you will not be disappointed! Property owner and manager are very attentive/responsive. We hope to return! Mahalo!
The condo was well supplied with everything; furnished comfortably; artfully decorated and beautifully located within walking distance of beaches, shopping and dining. We loved the condo and Ko Olina!
