15% off for monthly reservations! Fantastic View, Immaculate, Beautiful,Peaceful

Enjoy gorgeous unobstructed ocean, marina & mountain views from our beautiful newly built guest house. Located on the ridge, in a safe, quiet and upscale neighborhood in Hawaii Kai, East Honolulu, just around the corner from famous Hanauma Bay, Halona Blow Hole, spectacular Sandy Beach and more! Sea Life Park, Makapuu Beach and Waimanalo Beach are all about 10 minutes away.

This beautifully appointed open concept residence, is light, airy, pleasant, peaceful and immaculate! A private entrance takes you through a cozy garden, down a few steps, to a welcoming deck and your front door. As soon as you come in, you can enjoy the fantastic view that you can admire from almost every room! With a complete kitchen with gas stove and oven, a full size refrigerator, and long granite counter-tops; you can cook as much or as little as you like. We have a tall dining table set where you can sit and marvel at the view while you enjoy your meals. In front of a big window, you will find a nice area that you could use as a desk. The breezy open concept living room area includes a sleeper sofa, coffee table, armchairs and TV.

The main bedroom has gorgeous views as well! You can watch the sunrise as well as the moonrise from your comfortable queen size bed. Although there is always a nice breeze, there is a ceiling fan for your comfort as well as an air conditioner unit. This bedroom is separated from the main living area by a half wall to maximize view and airflow.

The second bedroom also has a comfortable queen size bed and an air conditioner unit. This bedroom is perfect for those who prefer to sleep in a darker room, its window doesn't offer a view but lets in the fresh air, and this room offers more privacy with a door that separates it from the main living area.

High quality, white, 100% cotton linens are used for all beds.

The bathroom is super clean, large and convenient. The shower has great water pressure and hot water. A clean set of 100% cotton towels is also supplied for every guest.

An efficient washer and dryer unit for your own use is also inside the guest house.

This vacation retreat is equipped with high quality 100% cotton linens, towels, cookware, china, silverware, and more. Even boogie boards, snorkel sets, beach umbrella, beach towels and beach chairs! We have even installed a hotel style safe for your peace of mind.

Free WiFi! Fast and reliable wireless internet, digital cable TV service with DVR allows you to record, pause, and play your favorite movies and shows, and a pivoting 47' smart TV that lets you watch from the living area and bedroom.

Free street parking is available right in the front of the house.
Hawaii Kai has something for everyone: beaches, parks, lots of ocean activities, fun hikes of different levels, a great variety of restaurants, movie theaters and shopping. Farmer's markets, supermarkets, beauty salons, gyms, various services, and even Costco are all within 5 minutes. You can be in the hustle and bustle of Waikiki in 20 minutes and at the airport in 40 minutes.

You will love staying at our guest house! It is peaceful, private, immaculate, and just beautiful! My husband, daughter and I live in the main house.

This property is amazing! Private entrance with breathtaking views! The location is 10 minutes outside of the hustle of Honolulu and Waikiki. Claudia was very friendly and informative. She gave us a restaurant suggestion (Roy's) our first night. It was top rate! We made reservations for our last night as well. Thank you for a lovely landing spot after our long days of exploring Oahu.

Stay in Hawaii Kai
We had such a great stay here! Claudia went above and beyond for us. She helped us with anything we needed and checked in to make sure things were going well. We really can't thank her enough! The place is clean, the view is great, and it is very quiet! The area is nice as it is away from the hustle and bustle of the city, but still an easy drive to most things. I can't recommend staying here enough. Thank you Claudia!

Best Rental and Location on Oahu
I have been to Oahu 5 times … The location of this property cannot be beat. It is out of the tourism of Waikiki, but still close enough if you want to visit. So many nice beaches within a few minutes drive (including Hanauma Bay, Makapu, Blow Hole, Sandy and Lanakai/Kailua, etc). The drive to the North Shore from this location isn’t that bad either. Also, good food and shopping centers close by (including Costco). Koko crater is staring at you out the window from the rental and it is such a wonderful hike (amazing views from the top). Again, best location available if you are into exploring the island. The rental itself is clean and wonderful. Private entrance with the best view of the ocean and Koko crater (sunrise is amazing)! Beach towels, chairs/umbrella, snorkel gear for use was an added bonus! We will definitely come again to this rental (no reason to look anywhere else on Oahu)! My kids are already asking to go back … they say no more Disney, only Hawaii, and it is mainly due to our stay at this rental! Such a wonderful time!! Thank you Claudia and Kevin for being wonderful hosts and available/responsive for any questions we had about the area!! Michael TN

Lovely stay with stunning views!
I was in Oahu for Thanksgiving with my daughters (22 & 16) and I could not be happier to have found this place on VRBO. The location was perfect for us, away from the hustle and bustle of Waikiki and in a very quiet residential neighborhood. The apartment itself slept the 3 of us very comfortably and had all the necessary items to cook a full thanksgiving dinner. I would definitely stay here again and strongly recommend it to small families or couples.

Hawaii Kai Guest House
My girlfriend Elizabeth and I had a wonderful vacation at Claudia and Ken's Hawaii Kai Guess House! The panoramic view from the many windows is fabulous! The unit is super clean with very nice furniture and the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed for cooking most of our own meals during our 10 day stay. The bathroom also has a nice collection of toiletries is case you forgot to pack an item. As weather was windy and overcast we took day excursions. The location was perfect for driving from one end of the island to the other. Claudia was a very informative tour guide. There is plenty to see and do on Oahu. The WiFi and TV reception is very good. The washer and dryer were handy and the linens were luxiurious! We highly recommend this apartment for a relaxing vacation!! Aloha

Wonderful ocean views!
Claudia's vacation rental is wonderful! The minute we stepped into the unit we knew we had found an exceptional place, probably the nicest we have rented in the five years we have been visiting Oahu. The unit is sparkling clean, quiet, and airy with views of Koko Head crater and the ocean. Even Maui is visible on a clear day! Attention was given to details like the quality linens and kitchenware. Even a couple beach chairs, an umbrella and snorkel gear were available for our trips to nearby beaches or Hanauma Bay. We had finally found a quiet retreat for our extended stay; a cosy spot to curl up with a book or to cook an evening meal after a day at the beach or hiking. In short, this unit met all our needs. Check in and check out was easy and our hostess frequently inquired if there was anything we needed. Don't hesitate to consider this lovely rental! We hope to come back soon!
