I can’t say enough good things about our stay! The location is incredibly close to one of the world‘s most beautiful beaches. The cottage is very adorable and beautifully appointed. The bed was very comfortable and our host. Kate made us feel welcome to the area, suggesting restaurants and making sure we had what we needed. I highly recommend staying here if you are visiting Oahu.

Perfect Vacation Cottage

It was the perfect quaint cottage for my husband and me in the perfect quiet location that was a quick 5 minute walk to Lanikai Beach and easy access to everything all over the island. It was a half mile walk to the pillbox hike. We will stay there again.

Perfect stay!

Amazing location (<5 min walk to the beach, 5 min drive into Kailua - cutest little town!!), perfectly clean cottage with everything you could need, including beach chairs and snorkel gear. Although the cottage is on Kate and Dan's property, it was incredibly private with our own private yard/patio. Bed was incredibly comfortable. I'm a picky gal when it comes to hotels/VRBOs and we honestly couldn't have been happier with our stay.

Amazing location in a peaceful neighborhood just steps from postcard-perfect, soft sand beaches. The tastefully appointed cottage has everything you could imagine needing right at hand, without being at all cluttered. It includes cookware, a decent sized fridge, comfy bed, effective AC, and overhead fans. The small private garden is great for morning yoga under the plumeria tree and a glass of wine in the evening. Kate genuinely cares about guests' comfort - there were even a few surprise treats waiting for us.

Perfect for us!

The cottage is well laid out, beautifully maintained and spotlessly clean. We loved the location in a quiet neighborhood just a short walking distance from Lanikai beach. It was very well equipped with everything we might need in the cottage and at the beach. Kate was excellent communicating us. We could not have had a better experience.

The cottage was quaint, cozy and comfortable. The hosts are gracious and have included everything their guests may need, while being available should questions arise. The cottage is clean and includes nice decorative touches, giving it a true home away from home feel. There is a lovely little garden for soaking up the pure aloha of this peaceful place. The cottage overlooks this garden that includes a manicured grassy area with surrounding tropical flowers and foliage. The hosts have included a bistro set in this private space and it is a welcoming spot to enjoy the sun and fresh air. The neighbourhood is quiet, safe and well-kept. The cottage is a short walk from the stunning, powdery white sands of Lanikai Beach. This is an excellent vacation rental that encapsulates the serenity of the location.

We spent six nights at the Lanikai Plumeria Beach Cottage. Yes, there really are Plumerias outside the window! Our stay was wonderful. Katie is an excellent host. Her communications are attentive, clear and helpful. The cottage is well-designed, equipped and furnished. It's very comfortable, compact and the photos accurately represent what you are renting. Perfect for one or two people. We will definitely stay again when our travels take us to Oahu!

Paradise Found

Perfect accommodations for a relaxing getaway. We thoroughly enjoyed this beautiful cottage and the private little yard with it's lush vegetation. We walked to the beach and to Lanikai Pillbox for a daily hike. The area is gorgeous with everything we needed. We went kayaking which was a highlight and easily organized. There were restaurants within a short drive and we found several outdoor markets while we were there. The beaches were spectacular. Kate was amazing and the cottage is beautifully appointed. I hope to return and I would absolutely recommend this cottage.

Perfect Proximity

The Lanikai cottage was perfect for our purposes, especially with its easy proximity to such a beautiful beach in such a lovely local neighborhood! We felt very welcome and at home, and even though the cottage is on the homeowner's property, we had privacy and a feeling of belonging. We loved being able to sit outside in the little garden area, especially to eat our breakfast in the mornings, and it was really wonderful being able to walk a block to the beach and not have to worry about parking. The cotttage is very well appointed, and Kate made sure we had everything we needed. We would definitely go back!

Perfect getaway for couples!!!!!

We LOVED this cottage. My wife and I came here to celebrate our 10th year anniversary and this was the perfect place to stay. Kate paid special attention to detail and we noticed. The pillbox hike is within walking distance and the sunrise is spectacular. The cottage has all the beach accessories needed and is just a short walk to the beautiful beach. There are no places to eat or convenience stores in the subdivision but Kailua is only a 2 minute drive over the bridge. We kept Kate's number and will definitely contact when we come back to Oahu.

Honeymooners

We stayed here for our Honeymoon. We couldn't have asked for a better hostess or place to stay. Super clean and everything was decorated so cute inside. Kate has literally thought of everything you'll need. Hands down the best part of the island to stay on if you want a relaxing retreat without chaos. It's a very short walk to the beach which was somewhat secluded an serene. Make sure you eat at Buzz's nearby (our favorite place to eat). We were there for close to a week and packed it in! We were able to go all over the island and explore in that amount of time. We would definitely stay there again! I'm not kidding when I say it's the perfect spot to stay! Many wonderful memories made!

Relaxing week at Lanikai Beach

As an active senior couple, we wanted a place close to the sand and with plenty of places to walk. We found it - at Lanikai Plumeria Beach Cottage! The cottage is so close to Lanikai beach, we would grab a spot in the shade to relax and read, and be able to go back and forth to the cottage for snacks and supplies. We walked the loop of homes in Lanikai many times and also nearby Kailua beach. In the morning we woke to beautiful bird songs and had coffee in the courtyard. The stars were beautiful at night and the neighborhood is very quiet. Kate and Dan are super hosts and made sure we had everything we needed! We found great restaurants nearby, including Buzz's steak house - it is about a 20 minute walk from the cottage! We relaxed, swam, walked and enjoyed every minute :)

Lived up to the reviews!

I rarely (if ever) write reviews however my wife and I attended a wedding recently and we stayed at this wonderful cottage for 5 nights. As other reviews had mentioned the distance to the beach is a five-minute walk through this very quiet neighborhood. The cottage is perfect for two people and very well thought out. My wife had actually commented that she would like the floorplans. We could not find anything lacking here in amenities. The building materials are high end and we found that the a/c unit was quiet which was important to me as I am a light sleeper. Honestly, we typically visit other islands when visiting Hawaii since I've always thought of Honolulu as very busy, now that we have discovered the other side of Oahu which is quite beautiful as is Lanikai Beach I'm certain we will return someday.
