I loved my experience, staying at this beautiful and quiet spot. I enjoyed everything from the homemade scones to a little garden area where we were able to use the BBQ. The location was also a close walk to the beach and to the food locations in Kailua. Great value.

Great location with easy access to the beach and town. I loved having access to a garden but the mosquitos were pretty aggressive. Clean, safe, and enjoyable. Would come again.

Nice little cottage by the beach. Owners are very nice and respectful of your privacy. It’s a very lush property with lots of trees and plants so there are some bugs but they never bothered us really. Location is perfect, beach is a 5-6 minute walk and maybe 10 mins to Whole Foods. Would definitely stay again.

Paul and Rachel have a beautiful home in Kailua. The Ginger Suite was very comfortable and cozy. They’ve thought of all the little things. It has everything you need. A nice little breakfast bar, beautiful beach close by and Kailua is full of great restaurants and shops, I highly recommend!

We so enjoyed staying at this comfortable property. Being that it is located in town where we used to live made it easy to visit familiar areas (especially the local beach) and explore places we hadn’t seen before. Accommodations very cozy and inviting and ammenities to assist in our stay were great. Sorry that we didn’t get to interact with the owners more so didn’t see them before our departure so will follow up with a note once back home. We would definitely consider staying with them again.

Me and my wife spent a week here. It was amazing! The location was perfect. We were so close to the beach and so close to all of the shops and restaurants in Kailua. The room was very clean, the amenities were wonderful, and the owners were very friendly!

We are fairly frequent visitors to the islands and prefer staying in rentals over hotels but have found it more difficult to find places. We were excited to find this rental and it was perfect for the two of us. The accommodations, and the access to the property owners was fantastic. We were provided a list with suggestions for restaurants, things to see and do and local information which was super… we checked out a lot during our stay.
We appreciated the coffee bar and the first day breakfast provided - fresh fruit and scones. Having the microwave, small fridge and toaster oven was perfect for all our needs (keeping water cold as well as the few groceries we purchased from Costco to have available). The location provides easy access to the beach and to town. We walked everywhere!
We enjoyed our morning coffee and snacks in the private garden area and were thankful for the bug spray because they were biting especially in the mornings and evenings.
We will definitely keep this location in mind when we return to the islands. Great hospitality, location and accommodations.

This is a lovely property walking distance to the beach and to shops and restaurants in Kailua town. We spent a few days decompressing after a two-week trip around the islands with three grandkids and their parents. Absolutely loved the small, private courtyard, which was perfect for the two of us to enjoy breakfast and an afternoon cocktail. The hosts were awesome and made us feel so at home. We maybe chatted them up a bit much, but they were so friendly and interesting, we felt like old friends. We will definitely stay here again.

We had a fantastic stay at the Ginger Studio! The room is as described but even nicer in person with the other amenities. The property is well maintained with lots of landscaping and I loved the small fountain that blocked some of the background neighborhood noise. There is off-street parking and a really nice outdoor patio area surrounded by landscaping that makes it feel really isolated. Kailua beach is just a block and a half away, and there are boogie boards and beach mats for your use…
We walked into town several times for meals and coffee.
This was really a perfect stay for us in a perfect location. Paul and Rachel were very friendly and available without being intrusive - all of the information we needed was provided in advance, so there was no reason to contact them, but we enjoyed visiting with Paul when our paths intersected.
We will definitely be back for another stay (as soon as possible!)
