They are always clean I have never seen any bugs which is usually a problem in tropical climate areas. They are a really good at providing a relaxing vacation away from the congestion and tourist traps in Honolulu. You can go to the tourist area but you have a place to retreat when the day is over. Also if you are there at the right time watching a full moon rise over the ocean is mesmerizing. Only draw back is you have to drive to other side of island for sunsets. But sunrises are breathtaking.

The big unit has a full kitchen with a dining room table, full fridge, a stove, and an oven. It has a washer and dryer, multiple beds, a TV, a huge couch, and a love seat. The big unit is very spaces, with a parking stool. If you want to park in the parking stool you need to go done the drive way which is narrow, or you can park on the road, which is really safe! The small unit has a queen or king size bed, a mini kitchen, no oven, microwave etc. It has a full size bathroom, and it accessible. I would say the small unit is for two people, ike a couple or a small family with one child. I would 100% come again! You should definitely stay here!

First off, this is more a vacation rental. This was our first trip out to Hawaii and we were…read morelooking for something on the Windward side of Oahu. I found this place while searching for bed and breakfast establishments. **Note to readers** Make sure to check for only registered lodgings, Hawaii is having issues with unregistered establishments. Checking for availability was a simple e-mail inquiry, though I could have called as well. Response was prompt and concise. Reserved room through e-mail and called to give them the credit card info. There are two units, both sectioned off from the house with private bathrooms, one with more space and a kitchen. We chose the smaller unit which was cheaper, only $75 a night for the end of January. The place is two blocks from the beach and there are two beach access points nearby. I was nervous, given the low price and my unfamiliarity with Kailua. All my fears were gone the minute I saw the place. A large bed, a private bathroom, a mini-fridge, microwave and toaster oven. Even a television with cable and room for our stuff. While not top of the line, the room was everything I expected. Barbara and her husband were gracious hosts. We had immediate answers to any questions and a nice patio with a pool at our disposal. Bottom line: if you want a nice, simple starting point for your daily excursions, check into Auntie Barbara's now. For the price and amenities offered it can't be beat. It missed four stars for only one reason: parking. The house is set back from the road down a narrow driveway flanked by a concrete wall and a fence. Parking next to the house and getting back out is a nightmare. Thankfully we were able to utilize street parking and walked down the driveway to our unit after the first day.

I can't say enough great things about them and how welcome they made me feel. From the moment I booked to, when I sadly had to leave, Pixie and Andy took every opportunity to go out of their way and ensure I had the best possible experience. From making thoughtful recommendations, to dropping off delicious snacks, they really made my experience at Lanikai Studios special. As for the location, it is ideally situated across from Lanikai Beach. It's on the end closest to Kailua which is great as it's just a short (not to mention beautiful) walk or bike ride to Kailua town. The beach access is directly across the street making it easy to enjoy the spectacular sunrises and moon rises on one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. The entire place is charming, decorated with island decor inside and out that sets the Aloha vibe. The rooms are clean, very well maintained and most have lanai or balconies. It's the perfect place to unplug, relax and enjoy the ocean. From my room I could hear the waves breaking every night. Lanikai Studios is a magical place in a spectacular location. If you have the opportunity, stay here. You won't be disappointed. It provides a more relaxing, personal and authentic experience than the mega hotels of Waikiki. Mahalo Pixie and Andy
