It is really hard to pick the best part of our vacation because it was all wonderful. Although we had thought about island hopping for a day, we were glad we stayed on O Ahu since we couldn't do everything we wanted to there. My family and I enjoyed the surfing lessons we took in Waikiki Beach. We all surprised ourselves in actually standing and surfing on our surfboards. Kailua Beach was beautiful and we enjoyed walking to the beach.

My advice to someone staying at this unit would be to bring earplugs. The air condition window units in the bedroom are old and noisy. We were a bit surprise that the inside of the non-airconditioned area of the house was hotter than outside. The grill and outside table was nice for dinners.

The unit was very comfortable. However, I would recommend central air conditioning for the whole unit, as it did get very hot.. The customer service was outstanding and prompt. Kailua seemed to be a very neat community-oriented town, and a highly desirable place to stay, preferable to Kahala and Hawaii Kai, where I had stayed previously. We ran our youth basketball tournament for the third consecutive year, and we had our most successful tournament in Kaneohe and Hawaii Kai, but we need to get gyms closer to each other. In traveling around the island and visiting all areas and speaking with many locals, it does seem that Kailua is the best place to stay, which seems to be a well-kept secret from the many tourists who visit Oahu.
