Tutu’s Cottage (TVNC #5100) Important: When inquiring about availability, click on “Ask Owner a Question”. I will promptly answer and let you know what is available for your desired window of time. Also, do not make a reservation request and put in your credit card number (just because the calendar appears to be open). CONTACT ME FIRST, about your desired dates. Occasionally, the calendar is incorrect (human or software errors). Contacting me first will help me ensure calendar/booking accuracy.

Welcome to the description of Tutu’s Cottage! What do I love about Hanalei? So many things, but to name a few: - Hanalei and the surrounding areas boast regular top rankings for their beautiful beach (Hanalei Bay), spectacular volcanic mountains with cascading 3,000+ foot-long waterfalls, walking, hiking and biking trails (famous Na Pali Coast), and the nearby Prince Golf Course in Princeville. - One of the best things about Hanalei is that there are no hotels, no condos, and very few sidewalks as we enjoy the rural and more quiet atmosphere; Hanalei is a small tropical town with a fun surfing vibe. - The restaurants and other small businesses are mainly family owned/local establishments that will adequately and pleasantly meet your needs during your stay! What do I love about Tutu’s Cottage? Tutu’s Cottage has a welcoming home-away-from-home feel for your visit to tropical Hanalei. With a fantastic location, you will be within WALKING DISTANCE to both the BEACH (5 min.) and center of TOWN (3 min). Our cottage has two lanais, with the backyard lanai having an unobstructed, breathtaking view of the Hanalei mountains (after a rain, you will see beautiful waterfalls cascading down the mountains). The kitchen is well equipped, the yard is very private (no neighbors behind our cottage), and I should mention the outdoor shower (with hot water) – you will love this after your day at the beach! From palm trees in the front yard, to the back yard with a private and magnificent mountain view, I know you will love this property as much as I do! We keep our house extremely clean! Our cleaning fee is a reasonable $275.


As per County of Kauai regulations, I am informing you that all of Hanalei, including Tutu’s Cottage, is located in the Tsunami evacuation zone. There are instructions in the house and a map is provided with evacuation instructions. If you have any questions, please let me know.

Couldn’t ask for a better location or host. Everything was so organized. Location was outstanding. Two boxes to walk to the beach in less than the block to walk the downtown area. Perfect! Can’t wait for our next trip back!

Paradise at Tutu’s Cottage

We absolutely love the location of the cottage! There is easy walking distances to great restaurants, coffee shops, and ice cream. In the other direction in less than a 5 minute walk is the breathtaking Hanalei Bay. The outdoor seating is wonderful and we especially loved the outdoor shower!

Sweetest Hanalei cottage

Tutu’s Cottage did not disappoint, clean, comfortable, terrific location.. The beds were super comfortable and there were quantities of towels. The large back yard was secluded, and manicured, with tremendous views of the mountains. I would highly recommend Tutu’s cottage.

Sweet cottage in an amazing location

We had a wonderful stay at Tutu's cottage. The location is unbeatable, and the house is sweet and comfortable. It was actually bigger than I'd been expecting, and has an incredible yard in front and back, with patios for each where we ate most nights. The outdoor shower looking out on the gorgeous scenery was my favorite part! The house also has all the beach necessities - boogie boards, chairs, a wagon, that were great to have available.

Definite Repeat

This cottage was absolutely the perfect place for us. Short walk to the beach. Even shorter walk to the grocery store and shopping. The gas grill was a perfect way to fix delicious meals at the cottage and save tons of money on eating out every day. The covered porch is where we found ourselves at least twice a day, chatting over cocktails and people watching. Great neighborhood. With a 3 week stay, we walked a lot and checked out all of the rental locations. Hands down, TuTu's Cottage is THE place to stay!!!

Tutu’s Cottage was PERFECT for our stay!!

Tutu’s Cottage was perfect!! Amazing location, 5 minute walk to Hanalei Bay, 3 min walk to downtown Hanalei, Tahiti Nui (our favoriterestaurant), Food trucks and multiple restaurants & shops. Loved being able to walk down & grab a coffee, or go to the grocert store if we needed anything. We rented a car to travel the island but having so many places within walking distance was wonderful! Place was SUPER clean!! I was very impressed. The beds were extremely comfortable, and with fans on at night, we slept comfortably for 2 weeks. We only showered in the outdoor shower, it was peaceful, private & had beautiful views. My favorite part of the house! We cooked & grilled multiple nights over our 2 week stay, and the kitchen had everything we could possibly need. House came with comfortable beach chairs, boogie boards, cooler, buckets/toys & a beach buggy to carry it all, made it a breeze to go to the beach... which we did everyday. We've been to the North Shore 3x now & would 100% look into booking Tutu’s Cottage for our next stay. Carolyn was so nice & very responsive to all emails & texts. Thank you so much for sharing your gorgeous house Carolyn! We found it VERY hard to leave.

The Perfect Stay

My wife and I stayed at Tutu's cottage during the Thanksgiving week with our infant son and we had the best time. The house was clean, the location is perfect (close to the beach and town), and felt classic Hawaii. We spent a lot of time on the front porch just soaking it all in. Can't wait to be back!

Perfect.

First, Carolyn is an amazing host. Quick to respond and accommodating. Second, the location could not be better - short walk to everywhere you want to be and easy drive anywhere else. Only inconvenience (and this is small!!) is there is not a dishwasher. Otherwise amazing. Outdoor shower in particular is awesome.
