With access to the world-famous Kailua Beach and its turquoise waters being just four houses away and shops, restaurants and grocery nearby, the location of Helen's Beach House could not be more ideal. The exterior maintains a modest aesthetic, but this only serves as a cover of sorts for how tastefully designed and decorated the interior of this five-bedroom, five-bathroom vacation home that sleeps up to 12.
Though each bedroom has its own aesthetic slant, style and design, what unifies them all is their attention to detail and the obvious effort to make each a comfortable tropical nest for any and all who are lucky enough to occupy them. Bedrooms have their own wall air conditioning, they all have en suite bathrooms, some with dual sinks and sleek granite flooring.
The common areas of this 4500 sq ft. house include two spacious living areas and two adjoining kitchens. Highlights of common areas include multiple ceilings beams, fine hardwood floors, marble countertops and numerous floor to ceiling windows and sliding doors with lanai and pool access allowing plenty of natural sunlight to brighten the interior.
The exterior boasts a spacious patio with gazebo and BBQ area outlining a private, tiled pool... so many options for fun in the sun.
When venturing off-property, nearby Kailua and Kailua Beach offer several vacations' worth of activities for all types from the adventurous to easy going. Activities include tennis, snorkeling/diving, surfing, world-class wind-surfing, kayaking, hiking, horseback riding or golf while leisure time cab be spent shopping, visiting a health/beauty spa, catching a movie or taking in copious historical, cultural and outright beautiful sights Oahu has to offer.

This was the third time our family has stayed at Helen’s Beach House in Kailua, HI. We have a large family, which is why we have continued to stay at this rental; it is spacious enough to accommodate all of us. However, over the years, we have “sadly” noticed that the house has fallen into disrepair. There were several issues that needed to be fixed since the last time we stayed here that still have not been addressed. Furthermore, with our recent stay, we were not informed about some of the problems with the rental until about 48 hours before our arrival. This is quite disappointing because the rental is in a great location, and the house itself has such potential. Unless necessary work and repairs are made, our family will be looking for another rental house for our next trip. PROS: Great location; each bedroom has its own bathroom; 2 minute walk to beach; private pool; two kitchens and two family rooms; can park 5 cars. CONS: In desperate need of maintenance (lighting, appliances, floors, A/C units, plumbing, pool care, sliding doors [do not safely lock], door handles are corroding, windows: need cleaning and/or replacing, all kitchen cabinets: need a deep and thorough cleaning). Sadly, no pride of ownership.

The house is beautiful. It could use some updates but the good of the whole house makes up for that. We had 12 in our family and it was so big we didn’t feel cramped. I love, love that every room has its own full bathroom. The pool could use some upgrading but again it was perfect for us. It was equipped with everything we needed except, it should have at least 2 sets of bath towels for each person. I have found thee house that I will stay in again and again. Thank you Tiffany for your Hawaiian hospitality.

Wonderful. All 11 of use had our own space. Not having experienced this type of rental, didn't know what to expect and was pleasantly surprised. There were a few items that I found either missing (napkins and inside broom) or in short supply ( paper towels, toilet paper, & dish drying towels) we borrowed from all kitchens to supplement. Also, the small bathroom's shower curtain was dirty and no bathmat. These items seem small, but would have made the experience even better.

I came with 8 other friends for a birthday trip, it was about 9 days. The size of the house, and the convenience were impeccable. The pool and distance tot he beach was incredible - the experience was just, made our vacation better. Also Tristen our host was so easy to communicate with and very thoughtful :)

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed the spaciousness of the beach house and with all the amenities provided. The swimming pool was a great asset for all of us, especially the children. The weather was very unusually muggy due to the hurricanes passing near our island. However it was real nice to have this beach house for our large family. Kiri, the manager was excellent in showing me around and explained everything about the house. She quickly responded with a plumber to repair a leaking toilet; glad there were other bathrooms in the house.

Everything about our stay at Helen's Beach House was wonderful - from the friendliness and courtesy upon our [early] arrival to communications throughout our stay to our departure. The house was perfect for our four families celebrating a milestone birthday. Mornings, afternoons, and evenings spent at the beach (a short walk down the lane and through the private gate) - none of us wanted to leave.

Wonderful location, wonderful house, wonderful help. Need any more words? Asked for a rice cooker, and voila! We (a group of 13) really appreciated Tristen for her help throughout our stay. I would surely rent this house again. Thank you again Tristen!

We had 8 adults and four children at this home. There was plenty of space and amenities. The pool and the location to the beach are the main attractions.

We had the most wonderful stay at this property in Jan 2022. Chiyoshi was so helpful, providing clear arrival instructions, answering texts promptly and just in general was lovely to communicate with. The house is the perfect space for a big family — plenty of room to be together, but also separate spaces for those who prefer quiet time. It's well appointed with kitchen items, basic toiletries, beach chairs and boogie boards. The proximity to the beach is fantastic, and the pool got plenty of use too. Would absolutely stay here again!

The accommodations, location and management by Chiyoshi for this Hawai`i Life Vacations rental are outstanding making our stay truly memorable. We are residents of Hawaii who are most thankful for having our `ohana (11 family members from afar) come together at this home located within minutes of Kailua beach and town that more than adequately met our needs to Ho`onanea - be "at ease and in peace with pleasures."
