As close to the ocean as you can get in Kailua! in Kailua

The Kailua Ocean Front Hideaway is about as close as you can stay to
the ocean in Kailua. 

We have 2 separate rentals available. A 2 bedroom / 2 bath Ocean Side rental, and a 2 bedroom / 1 bath Mountain Side rental for $100 less per night. 

In our Ocean Side rental, both Bedrooms, the Kitchen, and the Living Room face out to an incredible ocean view of beautiful Kailua Bay. 

In our Mountain Side rental the Master Bedroom has a view of beautiful Kailua Bay and the other rooms have a mountain view.

On wavy days you can feel the light ocean spray as soon as you step
outside of either rental. Both rentals share the back yard/beach area so everyone can enjoy the same Ocean View from the yard and beach.

The sandy beach area in back has a "private feel" because it is not a
swimming beach (waves are too large and it is rocky) so we don't get the constant traffic of people, dogs, and parties at night, etc... It is very rare to see anything other than the beautiful view and it is always very quiet.

You can soak up the sun on your "almost private beach" and relax with
a drink while you watch the waves roll in.

Swimming is available at beautiful Kailua Beach & Lanikai Beach which are both within 10 minutes of the Hideaway.

Lanikai Beach was the #1 Beach in America according to Dr. Beach in 1996, and Kailua Beach won the same honor in 1998.

Two other very popular beaches 1/2 hour away include Hanauma Bay
which won the #1 Beach in America in 2004, and Ko Olina, which is the nicest resort beach on the island.

Be sure to also visit Turtle Cove which is a small sheltered cove 2
blocks away. This area is not really known except to local residents and there is always a bunch of Sea Turtles swimming around in the shallows. You can snorkel here or just wade in to watch the turtles. The water depth is usually
from 1 foot to 4 feet.

At night the stress melts away while you listen to the gentle sounds of the waves. A nice breeze is almost always blowing to cool the Hideaway. All bedrooms have window Air Conditioners to make sure you are always cool and comfortable. In the morning wake up to a spectacular sunrise (see photos) as
the sun pops up from the oceans horizon.

The Hideaway is at the end of a cul-de-sac, so there are no traffic sounds. Nestled between the Ocean on one side and the cul-de-sac on the other side means the Hideaway is one of the most quiet and peaceful places to stay in Kailua.

The Ocean Side features:

• 2 upstairs Ocean View bedrooms with Air Conditioning.

Quotes from Vacation Renters

Aloha,
Thank you for a wonderful place to vacation. We thoroughly enjoyed
our time at the Ocean Front Hideaway. It was relaxing and just what we wanted. We will highly recommend your vacation rental to others who are seeking a quiet and restful vacation, yet a place close to lots of activities if that
is what they are looking for. Thanks again.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
We love this place! It is awesome to have so many commodities (ie
TV/DVD/Ipod Charging Alarm Clocks, Kitchen Supplies) It is so nice & was an amazing place for us to say.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks so much for everything. We felt so welcome with the fruit &
goodies. Nice touch. We really enjoyed staying here. It was perfect for the kids. Thanks again, your the best hosts ever!
--------------------------------------------------------------------
....Just what we wanted. It would appear that we might be frequent
visitors to Oahu. Should that be the case, we would be pleased to stay again at the Hideaway. We found the home to be tasteful and quiet and orderly and in a good location. We felt the price was one we could afford as relatively frequent visitors. And we miss the sound of the surf crashing already. Thanks again.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
We had a great time here. The kids really enjoyed playing on the
beach and meeting the others in the neighborhood. The extras (beach chairs, snorkel gear, mats, coolers) came in handy and saved us additional money. We intend on returning. Thanks again
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Very nice place. Lots of amenities provided like beach mats, snorkel
gear, chairs, bikes, boogie boards, etc. We hope to try the Oceanview apartment next time!
--------------------------------------------------------------------
This is a very nice and functional property. It is a few steps from a
small, beautiful beach. And, it has great access to nearby grocery stores and restaurants. Ideal for families with children.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Very nice accomodations, right on the oceanfront. Clean and
comfortable. I would love to come back here on a return visit.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Beautiful area - loved hearing the waves at night!! Great swimming
beach very close by. With so much traffic at other areas of the island, Kailua was a nice "escape".
--------------------------------------------------------------------
We've got a very positive comment from our client, who stayed at your
house for 4 nights. Their satisfaction research says your house was ranked as 4 (4 is the best, 1 is the worst) and they mentioned that your house was well cleaned. They also mentioned you are very nice and kind so that
they could relax and make themselves at home. Thank you very much for
taking care of our client very well. We hope our future client will feel the way they do.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The Oceanside cottage was wonderful! Loved hearing the waves, thanks
for the wonderful time.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
We really enjoyed our stay at the Beach House. We were greeted with
fresh fruit on the table, and snacks in the kitchen. We really liked the personal touch. Everything we could possible need was at our disposal! Thanks so much.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
I am home now and wanted to drop you a note saying thank you. Your
rentals were everything and more. The attention to details and the turn key aspect of the house really made the week easy for us. The kitchen was completely stocked with everything we needed to cook. The beds were really comfortable. Having a washer helped keep towels for everyone. We ended up having 10 people which is a large crowd for any house.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Location was amazing - right up against the water. Owners provided
all the essentials including hair dryer, iron/ironing board, beach necessities, kitchen supplies, guide books, etc. Overall, it was a nice place with a great beachfront location and the owners seemed to go out of their way to make
sure you had everything you'd need during your stay.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Nice place would stay again and try the oceanside next time. The
place had everything we needed thanks again.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Hideway Ocean side unit.
My 5 year old boys made instant friends with the kids on the col de sac where the house is located. The tidepools out the back door were wonderful for exploring. I enjoyed sleeping and waking to the sound of the surf and
moon and sun rise. The location is very convenient to grocery shopping and short drive to some of the best beaches. The kitchen is well supplied, there are plenty of towels, beach gear, etc. A very comfortable place to stay. Aloha!
--------------------------------------------------------------------
If you're looking for a place away from the hustle and bustle of
Waikiki, this is it. The sound of the ocean waves will put you right to sleep at night, and you'll awaken with a beautiful sunrise over the ocean right outside your bedroom window. We were pleasantly surprised to have found this
rental, and would definately reccommend it to anyone wanting to stay
on the windward side of Oahu.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
A lovely place. Beautiful location by the sea. Very well equipped and
we were especially pleased to have use of a computer.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The accommodations were very nice lots of towels and beach equipment
available. Every morning we walked to Turtle Cove and watched the turtles swim around. Also, it was nice to sit on the beach drink our coffee and watch the sun rise. We really enjoyed staying on this windward side of the
island and all of the peace and quiet. It was definately a wonderful
peaceful vacation and Kailua beach is so beautiful.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
This was a very nice stay, right on the beach, away from the hustle
and bustle of Waikiki. We would recommend staying in a house rental for any future travel...Much better than a Hotel.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The part of my trip I would definitely recommend to others is Turtle
Cove. I wish we had gone when we first got to the rental.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Very good location. a little smaller than I had anticipated but with the small computer room attached to the living room that more than accomodated for the size. The neighborhood was very nice and quiet with shops/restaurants very close.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Thank you so much for the use of the Hideaway. It was very well stocked. We made use of the boogie boards, snorkeling equipment, washer & dryer, and grill. Of course we enjoyed the sound of the waves crashing on the shore.
Many times we went to Turtle Cove & got to see Turtles. The DVD's and
books about Hawaii helped make our decisions on what to do, since we had no prior plan. We are Air Force retired and were totally blessed when we found out the Marine Base was so close. Again our stay here we comfortable and very relaxing. We hope someday to return. Again, thank you very much. PS. Computer use was great also!!
--------------------------------------------------------------------
I just wanted to drop you a note to thank you for our stay in Kailua. We absolutely loved your place and the surrounding area. The view from your house was incredible! My only complaint is that I wish we could have stayed longer but we still had to more islands to visit and only 2 weeks to do it.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks Bryn this was a great place to stay it was clean and perfect for us. We love it here and whish our stay on the island was all in this spot. We are on to Kauai today.Thanks again and we recommend this home to anyone.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Our family enjoyed most of all the quiet ambience of the rental and the magnificent view of the ocean. The unit was clean, and we also enjoyed the small computer room and the computer access. The rental arrangements and the directions were excellent. Our older daughter was on crutches with a
recently repaired broken leg, and the downstairs fold-out sofa was perfect. The wonderful ocean breezes and the great view were marvelous. We want to return for a longer time in the future.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The unit was clean, well appointed, and the location is very good, a residential neighbourhood, quiet, little trafic, safe and the best part is the close proximity
to the beach. Our baby grandaughter loved playing in the yard and the small tidal pools. We had a great time. Thank you.
