Comfortable, clean, helpful hosts, Great location .
10 / 10Outstanding·Feb 2026
A very well appointed spacious studio right across the street from Lanikai beach. The perfect location for the Kailua area. Spotless and Rick & Nini were the perfect hosts.
10 / 10Outstanding·Dec 2025
Lanikai is everything Waikiki is not, which makes Rick's place the perfect getaway spot. The bungalow was set up with everything the two of us needed - beach towels, umbrella, chairs, cooler, everything we needed for a day at the beach. Plus with a full size fridge, with an ice maker, a full size coffee maker (!), A hot plate and rice maker, this place makes a perfect place to spend a week. I haven't even mentioned the beach is truly steps away. We hope to make it back again one day in the near future. (I highly recommend renting from Rick.)
10 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2025
The studio is spacious and immaculately clean. Everything was in well kept or new condition. Chairs, umbrella, cooler, beach mats, towels and bodyboards were provided for trips to the beach. Rick and Nini were an excellent source of information and helped to make our trip really enjoyable. We would highly recommend them as hosts and stay here again.
