About this property

Kai Lani Luxurious Ocean View Gated Community, Two Master Bedrooms near Aulani

Please visit our exceptional vacation condo in the Kai Lani gated community, a part of the beautiful Ko’olina resort. Our ground floor luxury, executive-type condo is over 1300 Sq. ft. with a full ocean view from our lanai where you can sit at night viewing the sun set over the ocean or whales breaching. You can walk directly from the lanai down a beautifully landscaped hill to a secluded cove where you can sit in the sun, snorkel during the summer, fish off the rocks, or share the sunset with your neighbors. If you walk up the hill 100 yards through the beautifully landscaped gardens you reach the Kai Lani swimming pool, hot tub, and a covered entertaining area. The condo is close enough to walk to the pool in 2 or 3 minutes but far enough away not to hear the noise.

Our condo was furnished by a well-known Honolulu decorator in a Pacific Island style with upgrades and original art work as well as ceiling fans and air conditioning in every room. Sit in the living room and watch our UHD TV, with surround sound, use the desk and do a little work (using our printer), enjoy the ocean view from all of the windows, or just sit and read a book and enjoy the breeze from the ocean through the screened door that leads to the lanai. Walk from the living room area to the dining area for a meal or just sit at the counter and have a quick drink or lunch. Preparing and serving a meal is easy in the fully furnished kitchen with like-new stainless steel appliances and granite counter tops. Plentiful cooking equipment, glassware, place-mats, napkins and napkin rings are available.

Sleep in one of our two Master bedrooms each with its own private full bath and walk in closet. (The front bedroom also has a view of the ocean.) Each bedroom has a king sized Tempurpedic bed and HD flat screen TV. All bedding along with bathroom and beach/pool towels are provided. There is also a inflatable queen sized air mattress with mattress pad and all bedding . If you are entertaining, there is an additional guest bathroom off of the living room. A full sized washer and dryer are carefully hidden off the hall. Cable, telephone, wi-fi, and internet are included.

You are welcome to use our snorkeling equipment, boogie boards (adult and child), lap boards, and beach chairs. Trash pick-up is also included twice a week.

The Kai Lani community is located within the Ko’olina resort which is on the sunny West Coast of O’ahu about 20 miles from Honolulu and 15 miles from the airport. It is known for its 4 white sands lagoons, its championship golf course designed by Ted Robinson, the Disney Aulani hotel, excellent restaurants and shopping. All are within walking distance. Since all beaches in Hawaii are public, the lagoons are wonderful for swimming and snorkeling. In addition the Paradise Cove Luau is right next door. In the evening, sitting on the lanai you can hear the drums in the background. During the day you can use their beach. The lagoon has excellent snorkeling and as yet is a relatively unknown area. You will also see several turtles and find a protected Hawaiian monk seal sleeping on the beach.

While sitting on the lanai drinking a Mai Tai, I had one of our guests remark “I don’t need to move from this spot to experience paradise, this is paradise right here.”

I keep the calendar updated; please refer to it for availability. Stays less than 14 days will be consider if the property is vacant; please contact me for details. Discounts are available for stays longer than 30 days. Contact me by clicking above.

Another fantastic stay

Our third stay at Richard’s condo in Kai Lani was nothing short of fantastic. The complex is beautifully landscaped and thoughtfully designed, creating a serene and inviting atmosphere. The pool and hot tub are pristine—a perfect way to unwind after a day at the beach.Just a short walk away is Paradise Cove, a small, picturesque beach ideal for snorkeling and safe for kids to enjoy the waves. Several other stunning coves are just minutes down the road. The location is also incredibly convenient, with restaurants, coffee shops, an ice cream shop, and various stores within a five-minute walk. Plus, a quick drive takes you to multiple grocery stores, including Costco.Richard’s condo itself is a dream. The spacious, open-concept kitchen is well-equipped, making it easy to prepare meals. Both master suites feature comfortable king-sized beds, and the tasteful decor makes the space feel like a true home away from home. We are already looking forward to our next visit!

Beautiful location

We stayed 5 weeks. The neighbors are so friendly and the beds are very comfortable. Richard supplied all the beach toys/snorkel gear we could want. It’s so nice to be able to walk to the lagoons. It was great and we would come back again in the future.

Perfect Getaway

This property is in a pristine location away from the hustle and bustle of Waikiki and nestled in Ko'Olina which has restaurants, shopping and beaches. The condo itself was bigger than expected and the sunset views are a chef's kiss as it's on the west side of the island. It's also about 3 minutes from electric beach for some good beach/snorkel days. I lovedy stay here for my wedding and honeymoon. Would stay here forever if I could!

Bucket List Trip

Overall a GREAT place to stay: view, close to activities & shopping, nice neighbors & workers, rooms, beds, and parking. Negatives were: we couldn't get very hot water, kitchen appliances need replacement (fridge & dishwasher), and living room furniture needs replacement (uncomfortable to sit in, no ottomans, we were vacuuming a couple of times daily due to feathers shedding, and we ended up putting sheets on them to avoid their scratching us). We WILL still be recommending this place to others, with the expectation that some of the items noted will be taken care of. A big thanks to the owner for all of the water gear and for buying a beach wagon for us to haul it all on. As a handicapped person, this made a HUGE difference in the amount of things I could take part in!

Paradise

Four adults all over 60 celebrating my brother and sister-in-law's retirement. The condo was perfect for the four of us. Having two beautiful master suites (really comfy king beds!) was lovely. The bathrooms are huge and luxurious. The kitchen had everything we needed to make nice meals and eat in occasionally. We spent a huge amount of time on the lanai because of the gorgeous ocean view. A real bonus is the decor and artwork in the condo. The second bonus is the location. We walked down to the beach we viewed from the lanai every night for the sunset. There is also a cove beach with amazing snorkeling that is completely walkable, about a 1/4 mile away. We saw over a dozen different types of fish as well as swam with a sea turtle and watched over a sleeping monk seal on that beach. Honolulu, the North Shore and eastern shore of the island are all very accessible by car. Within Ko'olina itself are shops, tons of restaurants, luaus and just about everything you need. It really was a perfect vacation. Thank you, Richard!

Our second stay in paradise

We were lucky enough to stay in Richard’s condo for a second time. The complex, Kai Lani, is beautifully landscaped and laid out. The pool and hot tub are clean and a fun place to relax after a day at the beach. A quick 3 minute walk away is Paradise Cove, a small beach where you can snorkel and kids can swim safely in the waves. You will find three other coves a few minutes down the road. There is a strip mall a five minute walk away with restaurants, coffee shops, an ice cream store and stores. Richard’s condo is well equipped with a large open concept kitchen. There are two master bedroom suites with comfortable king sized beds. The decor is tasteful and feel like your second (dream) home. We cannot wait to return and have already inquired about our next stay!

Loved this condo. Easy contact free check-in. Location to many things was a plus - walking distance to Paradise Cove Beach, the Lagoons of Ko'Olina, and many restaurant choices. Driving anywhere on the island was easily accessible for half-day & full-day adventures. The pool area with shared gas grills was an immaculate space. So many friendly folk to share daily adventures with. Can't wait to come back and stay in this condo again soon!!

Wonderful Private Get-Away

This is our 2nd time renting Richard's property. I have relatives in O'ahu and we go back to the islands a lot. My husband and I just love his condo. The Thai/Asian decor is so beautiful. Everything feels so spacious, especially for two people! And I love the kitchen, filled with all the emenities! And you are provided with your designated parking space as well. Driving to Waikiki is about a 45 minute drive. There is so much to see on the island, depending on what you want to do. You can drive/walk to the Aulani and Ko'Olina resorts. Lots of restaurants within the Ko'Olina area. There are several lagoons and they fill up quickly. Next to Paradise Cove Luau (great luau) is a small beach called Paradise Cove. Really nice for swimming, snorkeling. You can ask the condo manager if he has a beach wagon to rent and you can walk to the cove. I believe your vaction rental makes your vacation stay even more pleasurable! Ko'Olina - Kai Lani Estates gated condos is its own paradise in itself. We will return for sure! Mahalo nui loa, Richard!!!

Amazing Appartment - Highly recommend

Richards appartment is very beautifully furnished and equipped (everything - really EVERYTHING you need, is there). It is nicer and a little bigger than it appears on the pictures. The view towards the ocean was the best. Only one word about Kai Lani community: A lot of things that are normal for us in Europe (smoking OUTDOORS, hanging towels outside to dry, etc.) are not allowed in this community for some very strange reasons. You should be aware that (especially as someone coming from Europe) you will not have the freedom you are used to from home.

Our best time ever in O'ahu! Staying at Kai Lani at Richard's 'Kapolei' townhouse was wonderful.

Craig and I had the most fabulous time in O'ahu and a lot of it had to do with staying at Richard's "Kapolei" townhouse. Perfect location, incredible decor, comfy beds, awesome kitchen with all of its amenities, big bathrooms, washer/dryer, WIFI, a TV in each bedroom and living room (lots of channels!!!), great beaches close by within the Ko'olina area, great pool and BBQ area, beautiful sunsets, warm weather and sunshine...we could not ask for more! Oh, and spending time around the island was awesome, too. We just loved coming back to Kai Lani at the end of the day for happy hour and making great island recipes or exploring the nearby resorts for food and entertainment. We will definitely come back.

About the host

Hosted by Richard Kitchener

Host profile image
I am a retired professor who currently make my permanent home in Colorado. I love the Colorado mountains, but fell in love with Kai Lani and the view from the lanai.

Why they chose this property

I have stayed in several Kai Lani units and other resorts at Ko'olina. This condo by-far was the most beautifully decorated and cared for. We bought it from the original owner who decorated it with loving care but was unable to use it much in the last few years. The art work, furnishings, and appliances appeared as if the unit was new. In addition, it is one of the few low density, two story condo areas on O'ahu and in Ko'olina. The grounds are truly unique as well as quiet.

What makes this property unique

The view from the lanai is breath taking and we can walk to the secluded lagoon in a few minutes. Being on the west side of O'ahu the sunset can be viewed from the lanai almost year round. Because the unit is on ground floor so you can walk directly out on to the lovely lawn area which is a wonderful area for children to play. Each bedroom is part of suit with its own full bath including a separate shower and tub. Bedrooms and baths are decorated with an island theme. The bedrooms are large and each has a king sized Tempurpedic bed. The grounds are surprisingly quiet. Since each building only has four units and they are well spaced apart, they are also very private.
