Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We wanted a quiet area in Oahu, away from the crowds of Waikiki. The Lanikai/Kailua area was a great place to stay that wasn’t too far away from Honolulu when we had activities there. This studio is in a quiet residential neighborhood. The studio itself is a bit dated, but it’s a quaint place. Janice, the homeowner, personalized some nice details, which was really nice. Breakfast baked goods, fruit, and snacks lasted us for most of the week. It was an enjoyable stay on Oahu.

Oahu heaven

A great stay, beautiful location and reasonable price. It was quiet and private. The owner was very responsive to a request for more pillows. The decor is alittle dated but not in a distracting way. All in all, a great place to stay!

Paradise

Lanikai is truly one of the most beautiful places on Earth, and Hawai'i's Hidden Hideaway and its host, Janice, are absolute treasures. We definitely plan on returning, and would recommend this property to anyone wanting a peaceful and private stay within walking distance of one of the top beaches in the world, and easy access to all the inland and coastal sights on O'ahu.

Great place

This place is so cute and quiet. After a long day playing tourist it was so nice to come back to this clean, quiet studio. The extra touches were great. Waking up to the birds every morning was so special. I love this place.

Dream getaway

A short walk to amazing sunrises every morning followed by hours of sunshine and walks in calm clear water along the shoreline taking in the breathtaking scenery with nearly not a soul in sight.

Perfect place to stay in Kailua!

We wanted to stay in Kailua because of Lanikai beach and this was just a short walk away—so perfect!! The place was super cute, we got the room with the hot tub and we got a lot of use out of it!! Also, I wasn’t expecting the amount of snacks, drinks, and breakfast items in our unit when we arrived! It was super generous and delicious stuff!!! Thank you very much for the wonderful place to stay.

Janice, the host, thought of all the little necessities. We basically needed our clothes. We were there for a quiet get away and that is exactly what we got. Very serene!

Absolutely fabulous!

Hawaiis Hidden Hideaway is a real gem! Clean, comfortable and with every amenity you can think of to make your stay as comfortable as your home. We found our suite to be so relaxing and quiet and our host was a wealth of information and an inspiration to boot! We will definitely be back. Thank you Janice!

end of trip

Could not have asked for a better location! We typically begin our holidays in busier island areas then end somewhere more relaxed. This BnB worked great for us. The breakfasts made it possible for us to get our days started early. And the beach equipment was appreciated and in really good condition. Even without the tradewinds, we didn't need the a/c, fans kept us comfortable.

Lovely studio!

The location is incredible, just a short walk to beautiful Lanikai beach! There was a bit of confusion about which place we were staying in but once we were there it was clear. We were in a studio with twin beds and a small kitchenette. there was a nice sitting area for breakfast. Our lovely host Janice provided everything we needed for our beach outings and more food than we could eat! A big thank you to Janice!

Lanikai Hideaway

A fabulous location - close to beach, golf courses, activities/adventures, restaurants and more. Our accommodations included a private hot tub on a deck with wonderful landscaping, sun and coastal breeze that created a wonderful ambiance. Janice, the B&B host provided an abundance of goodies and personalized treats. The kitchenette was well equipped and the bedroom and bathroom spacious and accurately described.

I was convinced by the previous reviews and ratings that this place would be great. Unfortunately, it is now a bait and switch. They will assign you whatever room they want to each guest. And given the cancelation policy, you will be stuck with it. A two room suite with hot tub is the same cost as the studios, and guests have no control over which room they are assigned. Also, there is no breakfast. You will not be greeted by anyone, just given different phone numbers of people to contact if you need anything. It's not a bed and breakfast at all.
