Lawai'a Sea Lodge Was Great!
My family just recently spent a week's vacation at the both the upstairs and downstairs at Lawai'a Sea Lodge. We had a total of 9 people between the two units, including three teenagers, with 6 of us upstairs and 3 of us downstairs. Lots of room in both units Both kitchens had plenty of room to do all our cooking. The upstairs patio is where we spent most of our time. The patio has a great view of Kealakekua Bay including being able to see the local spinner dolphins daily in the Bay and the humpback whales that traveled past the Bay in the distance. Bring your binoculars for better viewing of both. The best part of the units were the many tandem and single kayaks and sup boards with paddles and life jackets that were available for our group to use any time of day. You can snorkel directly from the "back yard" of Lawai'a Sea Lodge as long as the ocean is not too high. We kayaked and snorkeled every day we were there. Manini Beach is only about a 5-minute walk away for beginner snorkelers. The units were relatively quiet and the wave noise helps drown out any street noise. Since the house is on a one-way street, there was a only a little bit of traffic. But parking in front of he units can be tight at times. The beds were all comfortable and the showers were fine with lots of towels for everyone. Overall, will definitely want to come back sometime soon to Lawai'a Sea Lodge.

Kealakekua Bay frolicking
Loved all the snorkeling. Even saw 2 octopuses and dolphins. So wonderful to be able to take out kayaks and SUPs whenever. The house was charming and the porch had an amazing view of the beautiful serene bay. Kitchen was well equipped and there were plenty of dishes! Jessa, on-site property care-taker, was a hoot and was so helpful and informative.

Wonderful week at Captain Cooks Bay
Perfectly situated on the bay with EZ access to the water if the waves are right. Multiple kayaks and plenty of accessoriies available on the property including life jackets, beach chairs, umbrellas, masks, snorkels. Beautiful views and breakfast/dinner setting on the lanai. The 6 of us worked perfectly with the rental. The downstairs unit shares the outside areas and we had up to 10 people there including kids which detracted alittle from the serenity but all in all very worth and would highly recommend.

Fantastic views, great kayaking and snorkeling
This is a wonderful location. The views can’t be beat. Very nice having kayaks available. On site host is very nice. Be aware, it’s isolated, 15 minutes down the hill from closest restaurants or groceries. There are three different units on this property, upstairs, downstairs, and cottage next door. No hot tub on site even though listing still says it has one.
