Descripción
We only host couples or two friends who don't mind sharing a room with one queen-size bed. We also do not take people with children of any age.
- - -
Welcome to our home on a lake and wetland in Kailua, Hawaii. We live just 30 minutes drive from Honolulu and 5 minutes drive from Kailua town center. Our family consists of a son living in Kentucky, a daughter living in England and my husband and me – both graphic designers and photographers.
Our home is on a large piece of land and we take care of the wetland in our “front yard.” The wetland is home to some of Hawaii’s most endangered waterbirds. We have 3 acres of non-wetland property, where we are growing bananas, mangoes, papayas, lemons, some veggies and lots of flowers! Unfortunately, the weeds grow three times as fast as the good plants so we are always trying to tame the jungle! (And you will be too if you volunteer with us!)
We are a non-smoking household and guests must be non-smoking too. We have one large active dog and several hens.
We prefer stays that are between 10 to 14 days. If you are looking for a place to stay longer than 2 weeks, do not contact us.
We like to host people who are happy, enthusiastic, and fun-loving. The weeding and gardening work can be hard, and depending on the time of year, it can be hot and steamy here... but you'll enjoy tasty meals with us, and have lots of opportunities for exploring and enjoying the beautiful beaches, mountains, and culture of Hawaii.
READ THIS BEFORE CONTACTING US:
IMPORTANT -- When you apply make sure you include the date range you are interested in staying, and you must include information about your Covid vaccination (type and date).
Do not apply to us if you are looking to stay for longer than 2 weeks.
Do not apply to us if you are a smoker... we do not allow smoking anywhere in the house or the grounds. Also, absolutely no marijuana or drugs allowed.
Do not apply if you are not a dog lover. You must be comfortable around dogs and enjoy petting them and playing with them.
Do apply if you are a happy, adventurous, and energetic couple or two friends - who wants to experience life in Hawaii!
Before you contact us, you must have a proper profile filled out for yourself. Your profile and your first email are the only way we have of making an initial selection when we consider inviting you into our home and lives. Be sure to have several photos of yourself on your profile page... pictures that give us an idea of your personality and what you like to do. If you are applying as a couple, we need information and photos for both of you.
MAHALO!

Our home is less than 2 miles from Kailua Town and a bit more than 2 miles to Kailua beach. We have two beach bikes, a canoe and kayaks available for you to use. Kailua is a charming beach town with lots of fun shops and restaurants.
Things to do in and around Kailua -- some you can get to by walking/biking, others by car or the city bus system:
Beachwalking, swimming, and kayaking at Kailua and Lanikai Beach. Lots of hikes nearby including the Pillbox, Maunawili Falls and Makapuu Lighthouse. Good museums include Bishop Museum and the Pearl Harbor WWII museums. Waikiki -- with lots of shops, tourist attractions and a pretty beach where you can take surfing lessons. North Shore surfing beaches and Haleiwa town. Hanauma Bay -- an underwater nature preserve that is fantastic for snorkeling.
Ayuda
We would love to have visitors with gardening experience (mainly weeding and removing invasive plants from the yard, wetland and stream bank) and who enjoys “spring cleaning” type of housecleaning. Please expect to do a lot of weeding. Ideal is someone who enjoys working hard and then having fun exploring or relaxing in our wonderful area.

Alojamiento
You will have your own large bedroom with one queen-size bed. It has a lovely view of the mountains. There is a bathroom with a shower down the hall. There is good internet access. You are welcome to spend time in the house with us and there is plenty of space for private time too.
We will provide you with meals when you are around the house… we are mainly vegetarian with some meat served from time-to-time for the non-vegetarian members of the family. WE CANNOT ACCOMMODATE VEGAN DIETS. We love eating dinner out on our open air lanai overlooking the lake. We sometimes build a fire down by the lake and enjoy dessert or drinks down there. I’m sure you will enjoy it too!
Algo más...
The public transport system (TheBus) is good if you are not in a hurry. A city bus comes near our home every hour, and the bus from Kailua town into Honolulu and Waikiki runs more frequently. It is just a 25 minute walk into Kailua town, and about a 35 minute walk to Kailua Beach. We can lend you bicycles and then it's just 10 minutes to town or the beach.

We had a great stay with Cindy and Hugo! They are very nice and warm people and great cooks. The house and the garden are incredible, feeling very remote while close to Kailua town. Also, they were very flexible with the working hours. We had freedom to make our own plans in Hawaii, like watching the wsl surf competition.

Cindy and Hugo are a really nice and friendly couple! They did everything they could to help us and encouraged us to see the amazing things the island has to offer.
We didn't stay with them for too long because we had to travel to LA, but even though it was a fantastic experience.

Helen and Jamie are a wonderful pair! Always cheerful and happy to do whatever momentous task we asked of them. They did an excellent job of clearing a large area of huge, nasty weeds – often in some rather rainy weather. Plus they’re great at helping clean the house -- especially the kitchen. An additional bonus – they make an excellent Thai… read more

We had so much fun with them, before, during and after meals... loads of stories and laughs. Plus they are excellent cooks - that Indian meal was out of this world!

We really enjoyed having Lisa work with us. She is easy to get along with, very helpful and does not get overwhelmed by big tasks. She pulled mountains of weeds while she was here and helped with a major cleaning and organizing project in the house. She is adventurous and really seems to appreciate the unique things each location has to offer.… read more

I had a wonderful time staying in Kailua with Cindy, Hugo and Edward, they were such great hosts, they made me feel so welcome and relaxed! I enjoyed working for them in their beautiful home and they made sure I had plenty of time to explore the island whilst recommending lots of things to do, I didn't want to leave!!!
