I loved the follow up and intro to the home by Verana. I loved that at night it was quiet and peaceful and the ability to walk out on the beach. we also loved the stadium seating and watched the sunrises from there in the morning. We love Cinnamon's and Boots and Keemo. We will back next year.

Guests' comments from Kalaka on the Beach guest book "Walked through the door & thought "we've died & gone to heaven!" Nothing better than to have the ocean wind blowing through your beautiful home & hearing the waves Our first vacation since '93 (sad huh?!?) & it was worth the wait! Thank you! Thank you! For sharing your paradise getaway with our family! Mahalo, James, Kathy, Randy & Melani Simmons June 19-29, 2009"

"A fantastic "first" beach house experience what a way to celebrate Isabel's first birthday! The house is perfect with open spaces, breeze, sun, pool, views, comfort all around. Could get really accustomed to this life style & hope that our group can do this again soon! Tims/Grzebik August 22, 2010"

The house is a beautiful vintage Hawaii home with all the ammenties, very clean. The cool breeze is constant and welcome in the summer heat. We enjoyed our stay very much. I have recommended that a gas grill be purchased for the house, as there is only a briquette grill and if it is raining you are out of luck. Some bicycles would be a plus also.

The proximity to the beach was great. I also liked the house it was quite charming. The sunsets were great and the morning walks on the beach were relaxing.

What a perfect beach vacation house. Kalaka on the Beach has a very relaxing feel, lots of room and everything we needed. We were there during an exceptionally windy week, so the ocean wasn't as calm as normal, but still wonderful. The house was very clean and comfortable. We loved using the pool and jacuzzi. Due to all of the open doorways, I wouldn't recommend this house to families with small children. We also didn't find the gas grill that was listed as an amenity. Other than that, absolutely PERFECT!!!

Great House - lots of room. Very old Hawaii style. Great patio and backyard and of course excellent beach. We loved it.

Terry R., Boulder, CO, 7.8.06

Enjoyed the stay. Having the beach right in the backyard is great. The house is big enough, the kitchen is fine, but the pool leaves something to be desired. All in all a fun stay.

Don C., Applegate, California, 6.25.06

What a wonderful house. Every need was anticipated. Clean, well appointed and fun for the whole family.

Kalake on the Beach was wonderful. The layout and location were superb! We loved the open air feeling of the home and all the wonderful ammenities. We absolutely loved the home! Our only concerns were the construction work next door began very early in the morning and awoke our guests. Also, we had a problem with someone hitting out rental car and not leaving a note. The damage was extensive and will cost us much in repair.

The house was beautiful and quiet, the linens and dishes clean. The yard to the beach was big and great for the kids. We were disappointed with the ants in the kitchen and the cockroaches everywhere (at least a dozen in our one week) - understanding that in a tropical place there are cockroaches was mixed with the feeling that no other place we have stayed (also beach front)have we experienced cockroaches... we deemed my husband "the cockroach killer" and his book showed the wear of many battles. I got stuck on ant patrol as they were fast and furious. They came and treated but they were back in 12 hours.

Comment by Owner/Manager:

The house is very well kept and regularly treated for pests.

We loved our stay. The house was much nicer than we expected. It is gracious, well planned and very convenient. The setting is gorgeous. We found the neighborhood very quiet while close to everything.

Mrs. Mahnaz N., Pacific Palisades, CA, 4.6.05

We had a wonderful stay! The back yard and beach were just breathtaking. We will be back someday!!
