Kailua House | MONTHLY DISCOUNT! 3Bed/2Ba House - 250 Steps to the Beach!

Experience the Serenity of 250 Steps to the Beach! MONTHLY DISCOUNT!

Welcome to Hale Makai, your gateway to an affordable slice of paradise in Kailua, Hawaii. Just a mere three houses away from the exquisite Kailua Beach, this is the ideal retreat for those looking to unwind and soak up the sun.

Nestled alongside a stunning three-mile stretch of pristine beach, Kailua is a charming town on the windward side of Oahu, often celebrated as one of the best beaches globally. With no hotels in sight, only local residents and vacation home visitors share in the beauty of our island lifestyle. Your family will cherish this authentic kama'aina experience as you savor everything that Hawaii has to offer.

This delightful three-bedroom, two-bathroom residence comfortably accommodates six guests, featuring a king bed, queen bed, and two twin beds. You can relax in the spacious living room or make use of the fully-equipped open kitchen. Enjoy meals on the large enclosed lanai or shaded patio, which features a Weber gas grill and outdoor furnishings. Our smoke-free home is thoughtfully decorated in island style for your comfort, allowing you to feel right at home while indulging in activities like barbecuing, watching movies, or strolling to the beach. Stay connected with free wireless internet access provided for your laptop, along with an initial supply of essential paper and soap products for added convenience.

The unbeatable location is one of the highlights of your stay. Each morning, step out to grab a cappuccino at the Kalapawai Market and cool down with a shave ice from Island Snow in the afternoon. Whether you're keen on renting windsurfers or kayaks or making use of the complimentary beach gear—boogie boards, sand toys, beach chairs/mats/towels, and a cooler—it's all just a short walk away from the beach, ensuring leisurely days tailored for relaxation.

When you've had your fill of beach fun, explore Kailua Town, which is less than a mile away, offering a variety of restaurants, shopping, and entertainment options. For further adventures, take a short drive to swim with dolphins at Sea Life Park, snorkel in the vibrant waters of Hanauma Bay, hike the breathtaking Ko’olau mountains, surf the famous North Shore, browse the Swap Meet at Aloha Stadium, immerse yourself in the nightlife of Honolulu, or take a leisurely stroll on Waikiki Beach.

In line with health and safety protocols, we adhere to the New Vacation Rental Clean standards from Breezeway, ensuring compliance with recommendations from CDC, WHO, and EPA.

The house is situated on a spacious lot that includes a separate one-bedroom, one-bath detached cottage currently occupied by our adult son and his dog. Rest assured, the dog will primarily be kept indoors during your visit, granting you full access to the backyard.

*Cleaning fees encompass a required mid-month cleaning service, as well as post-stay cleaning. Please note that this property requires a minimum rental period of 30 consecutive days. Rental rates are fixed and will not be adjusted based on occupancy duration. If your stay lasts less than 30 days, the house will remain unavailable for rent for the remainder of that month.

Summary: We had a wonderful stay at this property. I was in the area for work and decided to bring my family along for the holiday, and the home was a perfect fit for both. It’s a very short and easy walk to beautiful Kailua Beach, which made it incredibly convenient for daily outings. The house had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, and it truly felt like a home away from home. The owner and property manager were both extremely responsive and helpful whenever we had questions. The owner’s son and dog, who live on the property, were very friendly and welcoming while still fully respecting our privacy, which we really appreciated. Overall, this was a great experience, and we would absolutely recommend this property to anyone visiting Kailua.
