It lies in the Ko{{okina}}olaupoko District of the island of O{{okina}}ahu on the windward coast at Kailua Bay. It is in the judicial district and the ahupua'a named Ko'olaupoko. It is {{convert|12|mi|km}} northeast of Honolulu – over Nu‘uanu Pali. The population was 38,635 at the 2010 census.[1] In the Hawaiian language Kailua means "two seas" or "two currents", a contraction of the words kai (meaning "sea" or "sea water") and {{okina}}elua (meaning "two"); it is so named because of the two lagoons in the district or the two currents which run through Kailua Bay. Kailua is primarily a residential community, with a centralized commercial district along Kailua Road. The population was 50,000 in 1992.[2] Places of note in Kailua include Kailua Beach Park, Lanikai Beach, Kawai Nui Marsh, Maunawili Falls,[3] and Marine Corps Base Hawaii. It was home to Barack Obama’s winter White House and also of the famous South African businessman Ridwan Karrim. HistoryEarly historyDuring the reign of King Kākuhihewa and his successors, Kanekapu, Kahoowaha, Kauakahiakahoowaha, and Kualiʻi, Kailua replaced Waikiki as the residential seat of the Oʻahu Rulers (aliʻi nui of Oʻahu). Many ancient temple ruins, such as those at Ulupo Heiau State Historic Site, are in the area.[4] BeachKailua Beach is crescent-shaped, about {{convert|2.5|mi|km}} long, and ranging between {{convert|50|and|150|ft}} wide. The ocean bottom fronting the beach slopes gently to overhead depths without any coral heads. Light to medium waves support surfing and bodysurfing. The steady trade winds make Kailua Beach a top windsurfing and kitesurfing destination. Robby Naish, first World Champion of windsurfing and Professional Windsurfers Association Hall of Fame inductee, grew up in Kailua.[5][6][7] Sea kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding to the protected seabird sanctuaries Flat Island and the Nā Mokulua, popularly known as "the Mokes", have become increasingly popular water activities at the beach. GeographyKailua is located at {{Coord|21|23|51|N|157|44|22|W|type:city}} (21.397370, −157.739515).[8] Nearby towns include Kāne{{okina}}ohe, Maunawili, and Waimānalo. According to the United States Census Bureau, the CDP has a total area of {{convert|27.4|km2|order=flip}}. {{convert|20.1|km2|order=flip}} of it is land, and {{convert|7.3|km2|order=flip}} of it (26.62%) is water.[9] A significant portion of this water area is Kawai Nui Marsh, the largest wetland in the Hawaiian Islands and a nominated Ramsar Convention site. Kaʻōhao/LanikaiKaʻōhao ({{IPA-haw|kəʔˈoːhao|pron}}) is the earliest known Hawaiian name for the place known as "Lanikai." Kaʻōhao means "the tying" and is derived from an old story in which "two women were tied together here with a loincloth after being beaten in a kōnane game".[10] Kaʻōhao was commercially developed in the 1920s and renamed "Lanikai."[11] It is now an unincorporated community in Kailua on the windward coast at Kailua Bay. Lanikai Beach was rated as one of the top ten beaches in the world by Sherman's Travel Magazine.[12] The area is known for its white powder-like sandy beach, easy access to Nā Mokulua, and its hiking trail along the Keolu Ridge to the World War II military bunkers commonly known as the "Lanikai Pillboxes".[13] Because of its small community and easy access to its famous beach, Lanikai has one of the most expensive real estate markets in Hawaii.[14] It is served by Kailua's zip code, 96734.

The house was built by developer Harold Kainalu Long Castle, who also lived there.[23] Obama also took a vacation break in August 2008 at a different Kailua house, Oahu Lani, during the United States presidential election, 2008. ControversyThe arrival of Obama as well as various social media and travel sites have contributed to Kailua becoming overrun by tourists looking to get out of Waikiki.[24] Kailua, once known as a sleepy beach town, became a hot tourist attraction overnight. Local residents, known for being very vocal, have been at war with legislators and developers, protesting various issues such as the arrival of Target, tour buses, and illegal vacation rentals that have opened due to the lack of appropriate legal accommodations. Crime, traffic and beach parking issues have been increasing since 2014. The Kailua neighborhood board asked the Hawaii Visitors Convention Bureau to stop promoting Kailua which led to various articles implying that "Tourists are not welcome".[25] EducationPublic schoolsThe Hawai'i Department of Education operates the public schools. Elementary schools in the CDP include Aikahi, Enchanted Lake, Kaelepulu, Kailua, Kainalu, Keolu, Lanikai, Maunawili, and Mokapu.
