My family has been renting properties from them since the mid 80's. They are always relaxing and comfortable spaces. Easy rental process. Full kitchens so you can cook some of your own meals also plenty of close dining options if you don't want to cook. Zippys is a favorite. Is great to start morning on the beach if swimming in ocean is desired there is a lifeguard tower and swimming area. 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.

We absolutely loved our time at Kailua Beach Properties. The location of their properties are second to none. The beach is literally in your back yard and you are close to everything that the town has to offer. The properties themselves were clean and had amenities that would allow multiple people to cook and mitigate some of the vacation costs of food. Lastly, I can't say enough about the management team. They are a local company who truly care about their guests. They went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and welcome while in Hawaii. I would recommend this property to anyone.

We had 7 units rented through Pat's and our experience was great! The houses are in a great location for plenty of beach time and downtown access. Walking distance to some of the best beaches in the world! The houses were stocked with plenty of towels for the 11 days we were all here. Convenient laundry access for each house and enough supplies to make meals many nights. Wonderful trip and accommodations!

well let me see you know where do I start... first of all we stayed at Cottage 28, which has been upgraded from the pictures they show on their website. The attitude and customer service style of the management left something to be desired. they're cold and don't seem to care. we were told that when we arrived we would receive a welcome packet. once they received the deposit from me, I then received a letter in my email stating that we had to tell them exactly when we were coming into Kailua because they might not be home...well we never received the Welcome Packet all she told us to do is go to the business address and there would be a key there. there was no welcome packet there along with the key explaining things to us...except there is a book inside the property when you get there that's pretty like much like a manual of all these rules and regulations that you need to follow. sweeping and mopping and basically they want everything perfect by the time you leave or they say they will charge a $100 cleaning fee which is for excessive cleaning apparently. well ever since we got there we followed every single rule, and on the second night that we were here two huge, and I mean 3 inch long cockroaches were climbing up the walls. my husband saw them and we had to chase them down and kill them. we were freaked out definitely we called the management and left a message and told them that we think they need to spray. obviously a property that keeps it will sprayed for pests would not have these problems because where I live in my apartment building at home they spray once a week, and I never see any bugs there. so after calling her that night we never received a phone call or anything. my husband was very upset about it and I called her to discuss it with her and she said oh well we sprayed and we don't understand what you want. a few hours later after speaking to her 2 more huge 3 inch bugs came through the front door again. out when we very first walked in this property it leaves a pretty nice impression but to be honest with you I mean the furnishings are kinda second rate for the price you pay. another thing that was unattractive was the gross looking tree in the front yard. You can tell that it was updated but its really not fully restored because we looked on the walls and cracks in the walls, and one of the outlets is separated from the wall, and pretty much the whole time that we were here in addition to the other bugs ants were running rampant everywhere and we couldn't throw anything in the trash can, even if we rinse it just because the ants are getting in there, and since we never received the Welcome Packet we were never told where the washer and dryer were, and on top of it all the fridgerator has rust stains all over it and its old and it condensates it doesn't keep food cold unless on super cold and then it freezes things. and when you come on a vacation you don't want to follow a strict set of rules. when you stay in a hotel room there is no kitchenette you eat at a restaurant when you stay in a place with a kitchenette it should have a dishwasher and working fridgerator, and there should be a dishwasher. basically all these things are small things until the cockroaches came and that pretty much ruined it for us. management was very dry about the whole thing and pretty much didn't seem to care about it. when you have a property you need to upgrade it to the full extent including weather stripping on the doors which ours didn't have. and another basic thing it didn't have was an air conditioner when we first came in there were two fans sitting on chairs with all the windows closed it was hot in here. we had to keep all the windows in all the rooms open all the time, just for it to be comfortable. the one thing it did have was up graded windows with nice screens. everybody else seems to just love this company and they are a good value but not much else. if you want to have a pleasant stay don't come here.

What a treasure! Post-COVID family reunion We stayed in unit #9. It's nothing fancy but perfect for a relaxed Hawaiian vacation. It was comfortable and clean. Watch sunrise, sunset, or enjoy the beach anytime in between... Only a very short walk to the most beautiful beach in Hawaii . Kids and grandkids alike had the best time!The property manager, Angela, was wonderful to work with. We've already made reservations for next year.

We have stayed at two Kailua beach properties so far from November 2020 thru February 2021, and we loved everything about them. Loved each well equipped unique unit, loved their locations just steps from Kailua park and beach, and loved that the units were clean. Best of all, Angela (Kailua Beach Properties manager) is the absolute best. When we had to extend our stay or needed to change our stay in the last minute, she worked with us and found places for us within our price range. We are now happy to be returning to Kailua beach property units for a week in May 2021 to revisit family, after being happily adrift in the big island and Kauai. Once again, at the last minute, Angela was able to find accommodations for us in May, and again steps from the beach. Will return in the fall and plan to stay with them again and again. Thank you Angela for your patience and helping to make our stay in Oahu so lovely and safe.

My family has been renting from Pat's for many years, and this is my second time personally renting from them. Most recently I spent two weeks in Property #7, and we were very happy with our stay. The house was simple, but clean and well maintained.Pros:- Very short walk to the beach. Also quite close to the local kayak/board rental shop, some restaurants, shave ice, etc.- Kitchen had all the dishes and utensils we needed- Lots of beach towels and a number of kids' beach toys- There was a safe for our valuables- Lockbox provided for late night checkinCons:- House is on a moderately busy street. Our first couple of times going to the beach were a bit nerve-wracking with the little kids. We felt a lot safer once we started cutting across the grass of the house next door (another Pat's rental).- WiFi doesn't extend throughout house; looks like it's being shared with next door, and isn't a strong enough signal. Works fine in the living room, though, and has reasonable speeds.- Clothes line needs repairs. While we were there only one string was left, and it broke. Also, the sprinklers come on every morning right underneath the line, getting the drying clothes wet again.- Beds are quite high, and all rooms have tile floors. Several times we had kids falling out of bed. There were lots of spare pillows available, though, which we put beside the beds.Other notes to help set expectations:- No air conditioning. I didn't expect AC, but some might be surprised. That said, there were lots of fans available, which help on the really hot days. And really, it's Hawaii, you should expect to be hot.- No dishwasher. Again, this wasn't expected, but it would have been a pleasant surprise if there had been one.Despite the minor issues noted above, we were happy with the house and I would definitely stay there again.

Cottage 23 was everything we wanted in a Kailua beach cottage: it was clean, well-maintained, and felt very low-key-Kailua in its layout and furnishings; one of the best beaches on Oahu was across the street; Kalapawai Market and Island Snow were a short walk away; and the folks who run the company, especially Angela O'Malley Reed, were friendly, helpful, and super responsive to our needs. I will definitely recommend this place to all my visiting friends.
