Kailua holiday cottage

Iam so sorry it took so long to do this!! My husband and I spent 12 wonderful days in the cabana. We were greated with a friendly welcome from Gerry and gift basket from Julie. We arrived late that first night, after a long day of sight seeing, and were so blessed to come in to the cozy and comfortable cabana. Julie and Gerry had prepared a helpful binder with places to go, eat, maps, etc. Everything a nubie tourist could need. Gerry even helped us with some driving tips and a language lesson. What a blessing it was to not to have to pack beach supplies (leaves much more suitcase room for all our purchases). The beach was lovely and only a few hundred metres away! Kailua was an excellent place to come back to as it is so much more quiet that all the touristy places out there. If you needed to purchase something, it was no more than 10 min away. I have to admit, I thought all the talk about the outdoor shower was .... weird. Infact, it was the big joke with us and our friends before we left (and actually the first thing we were asked about when we got off the plane). The first time out was a bit nerve wracking (checking to make sure no one could see me in my birthday suit!) But it was, indeed,exillerating. Great way to start your day, but even better way to end it. You have to experience it to believe it. Every couple of days, we would come back to find the cabana had magically been cleaned. We didn't really get much of a chance to talk to Julie and Gerry (we were gone alot!), but the times we did, we found them to be extremely pleasant and very helpful. True Hawaiian spirit. If you're looking for a romantic get away or a place to stay out of the hubub of tourists, I would highly recomend you stay here. Being able to escape back here, at the end of a crazy, hot day, was a true blessing. Don't hesitate to stay here.
