Monthly Rentals in Waimanalo

Staying at Karibu Cottage was a highlight of our trip to Hawaii. The living space was comfortable, modern and very well- equipped. We were welcomed with a nicely stocked refrigerator. The unit had delightful cross breezes with loads of natural light, and the bed was excellent. It had a great lanai, a fully private entrance and yard with a gas grill, complete beach equipment, and a designated parking spot. John was very helpful and quickly responsive to a few questions we had at arrival and about media access. The location enabled us to get up for sunrise over the Mōkūlua most mornings after a very short walk. Kailua town and its farmer’s market, grocery stores and great restaurants ( Buzz’s, Paia Fish House) are a short drive away. While we only had the pleasure of meeting them once during our stay, it is clear that Melinda and John put a lot of thought and care into the space and we are very appreciative. We would love to make a return visit! Sunrises here are gorgeous!

Krista’s place looked good in photos, but I had one concern. I’m not a fan of pull-out beds; they’re usually uncomfortable with thin mattresses. But I read a review saying the bed was comfortable so I gave it a try. And I’m glad I did. The bed was solid and comfortable. The room was clean, quiet and private. It had everything you would need. Fine for one person. Maybe a bit tight for two, unless you were newlyweds. All in all, a great place in a nice, convenient location, near beaches, restaurants, Costco, supermarket. Would stay again.

Staying at Neal’s place was absolutely amazing! Both Neal and Kristin were incredibly kind and friendly, and gave great recommendations for things to do. The space was clean, and the outdoor spaces were beautiful. If staying here I would keep in mind that you are in very close quarters with the family (sharing the washer and dryer as well as some outdoor spaces). This allowed for access to some great amenities, and is a plus for making connections and getting local recommendations. I would not suggest this for someone who needs complete privacy and does not want to be around kids/dogs (we personally loved this aspect of our stay but know it is not for everyone). Thank you Neal and Kristin for a wonderful stay!

So very clean and well stocked with all necessities Lisa communicated regularly and very quickly but really we had little reason to bother her because everything was just about perfect. Stay here if you have the chance !
