The stay here was incredible! Absolutely serene. If you want to be in a beautiful quiet area, away from the highway and tourist centers, this is definitely the place! You won’t even mind the small drive out of town because it’s so gorgeous and scenic. The place itself is so cozy and cute! The back deck is 100% worth it. Waking up to the sound of rain each morning isn’t so bad in a place like this.

This apartment was just what we needed— quiet with views of the natural beauty of the island but close enough to easily get to shops, restaurants, airport etc. by car. Check in couldn’t be easier. The place was clean and there were even fresh flowers when we arrived.

Kaua’i Hideout

The place had everything we needed and loved that it was tucked and hidden away from the commotion of the resorts. Check-in was smooth and straightforward. This was our first time visiting Hawaii and we were glad we chose this hideaway for our getaway. Waking up in the morning looking out into the forest and mountains was just how I envisioned my stay in Kauai. Mahalo!

Private paradise

Our stay at Wailua hideaway was wonderful. It was located in a quiet neighborhood. Our hosts Lynda and David were welcoming and easily accessible. Even though they live above the apartment it was very private. The view from the bedroom and livingroom was beautiful with lush flowering trees. We had everything we needed in this fabulous oasis.

Peaceful, beautiful haven!

David and Lynda’s space is a dream! After a stressful rental car checkout experience, arriving here to fresh flowers throughout the apartment, chocolate treats, and a welcome card were just what we needed to feel welcome on Kauai! The space—including the bed and couch—are beyond comfortable, the kitchen is spacious and thoroughly stocked, and the view and sounds from the lanai are heavenly. Centrally located, this apartment could not have suited us better. Thank you, David and Lynda!

Convenient and cozy

My wife and I stayed here for our honeymoon. This was our third trip to Kauai and we have learned from experience that staying in the Kapaa region is best if you have activities planned all over the island. The Wailua Hideaway provided us with a convienient home base and a surprisingly secluded experience for being in a cul-de-sac. The back deck specifically provided a much appreciated jungle vibe with a good view of the neighboring mountain landscape and nearby stream. All-in-all we had a great time here and would highly recommend this apply named hideaway for any Kauai adventure.

Overall great place to stay. I would have given it a 5 star review except for the weevil bugs at night that gets attracted to any inside lights or anything white like the refrigerator. Also next time for more privacy I would choose a non-host home.(owner lives upstairs)

Loved staying here. Woke up every morning to the sound of the birds and the roosters. Would make breakfast and sit on the deck for a peaceful start to our day. The place had everything we needed. And even though there’s no air-conditioning with the doors open at night and the fans running in July, it stayed plenty cool and refreshing. Would definitely look for staying here again.

Beautifully furnished, quiet, spotlessly clean, gorgeous backyard

We feel so fortunate to have been able to spend 2 weeks on Kauai hosted by Lynda and David. The home is beautifully decorated and thoughtfully furnished. It is located in a quiet, tidy and safe neighborhood. The apartment is more upscale inside than you would expect, given the picture with a wood siding exterior and description of having a creek nearby. We cooked nearly all of our meals, the kitchen fully equipped with everything we needed and of good quality. The washer and dryer in a separate laundry room seemed new. Fresh tropical flowers set out in several places. And so so clean—that really stood out. The back of the apartment and deck face a beautifully landscaped tropical yard, with a creek down the hill with birds (wild and domestic) and bullfrogs. There are other homes to the side but not directly facing so it’s a nice private space to eat meals, write cards and plan the next day’s activities. The hosts David and Lynda are wonderful, seem to enjoy sharing their home and island life. We didn’t have any concerns but when we checked in about anything, David was the main contact and promptly and graciously responded. We hiked all over Kauai and were so happy to return at the end of each day to such a lovely, comfortable home.

Lovely unit, happy birdsong

We stayed here for 4 nights with our 1.5 year old. Easy check in, fully equipped unit, very aesthetically pleasing. Travel crib provided, but just to note, no high chair. We loved the lanai which provides protection for the frequent rain so you can still enjoy drinking your coffee outside. We thought central location for heading anywhere on the island was perfect as well.
