Beautiful area, close walk to beach, wonderful spacious house! Hilary the property manager was attentive and responsive and quick to help. We had one hiccup with the propane being empty which caused a night of cold showers and having to go out to eat instead of cooking that night. It was resolved the next day.

Great place to stay!

The location is amazing. Quick walk to town or the beach. We had a wonderful stay at the house and it had everything we needed for a nice stay. The balcony was the highlight - sitting there during passing rain clouds was 10/10.

Great getaway just a short walk from the beach!

Our family enjoyed the open layout of the house, the available amenities (sand toys, beach towels, beach chairs, outdoor shower and beautiful 2nd story deck). The property manager was very responsive. Even though the house is right next to other neighbors, the landscaping and trees make it seem like you’re in the middle of the rainforest. We truly enjoyed the ability to walk to the beach everyday with our kids (ages 5 and 2), and the laid-back town atmosphere was wonderful. Thank you!

Happy Hanalei stay

Everything about this home was perfect! The house is comfortable and well appointed. The location was perfect, close to beach and town. The waterfall views from the lanai were spectacular! We cooked many meals in the kitchen and never felt like we didn’t have the right equipment. There were plenty of beach chairs and toys to use. We are already talking about our next trip!!

Love Hanalei!

The house was perfectly set up for the 6 of us. We took daily walks to town & beach which was only minutes away. The kitchen was well supplied with pots/pans/etc. and we fully utilized the boogie boards! The house manager was very helpful & responsive.

Great stay with teens!

Beautiful home full of charm in a great location! Easy walking distance to Hanalei Beach and Hanalei Town. Owners clearly care about their home. We were quite comfortable sleeping without AC in August. Windows and ceiling fans provide great ventilation. Roosters are a part of Kauai. Everyone in the family adjusted to the noise after the first night. The teens loved all the beach gear provided by the owners, which was in great condition. Nice big washing machine and dryer. If coming to Hanalei pack light - you won’t need much!

Over all it was a very nice place. Could use air conditioning since the upper level got extremely hot in the afternoon. The wash cloths were stained and should be replaced. We did have bugs in the upstairs bathroom that was sprayed by management but felt they should have called exterminator.

A week in paradise!!

Our stay was perfect. The house was clean and conveniently located within walking distance to the beach. Large bedrooms each with their own bathroom. No A/C but with all the windows and sliding doors open there was a very comfortable breeze. Would definitely rent again.

Delightful covered deck for coffee and wine, and wonderful sleeping

Elayne and Dave's home is very comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped and we enjoyed having our coffee and wine on the lovely outside covered deck. We watched and listened to the rain and then saw rainbows!! The view of the mountains from the deck is just beautiful. What we really came to appreciate is how well we slept because we had great air flow in our bedrooms. We spoke with other folks that were renting from another VRBO and they were hot while sleeping. We were cool and slept so well. Each of the 3 bedrooms has great cross windows. We would happily rent from Elayne and Dave again.

Heart of Hanalei House

This property was a great fit for our trip. We had 6 total- my husband and me, our two boys (10 & 12), my mom and my brother. We walked into town (3 minute walk) every day to run to the Big Save for groceries, wander through the shops, or eat at one of the restaurants (or grab Shave Ice!). The beach was also a short 3 minute walk. Such a great location! The house felt very appropriately Hawaiian in style and decor. The 3 rooms are very spacious and comfortable and the outdoor areas (deck upstairs and down) are perfect. Each room has its own bathroom and there is even a half bath off the living area. We were told the temperatures were higher than seasonally expected while we were there and it did get pretty warm in the house as there is no AC. We slept with the windows open the first night, but quickly realized the roosters crow all night long and that it also didn’t necessarily cool us down that much. Not too hot to sleep, by any means, but would’ve appreciated a way to cool it down just a bit more. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed to fix the meals we ate at the house. Overall, we loved this house and would absolutely stay here again!

Hanalei family get together

We rented both the cottage (2bed/2bath) and the larger home next door (3bed/3bath+). They sit on a beautiful compound together bordered by lush gardens and flowers. The homes are beautiful, comfortable and had everything we needed. The kitchen was well stocked so we could gather as a family and enjoy our meals together. The lanai/porch is where we spent most of the time, reading and enjoying Mai Tai's. There is a BBQ, which we used and had a wonderful dinner with some friends who came by from the other side of the island. The beach is super close and we had beach chairs and boogie boards, along with towels and umbrellas. Town is so close, we walked in for groceries, shopping, lunch and dinner. We all decided that on our next trip to Hanalei, this is where we want to stay. Thank you!!!

Amazing property, excellent host and a great time!

We had the BEST family vacation here. The house was absolutely perfect for our family with 4 adults and 4 young children. We were really impressed by how stocked the kitchen and house was with everything we could need. There were tons of sand toys, chairs, towels, and snorkel gear that we thoroughly enjoyed! We also loved cooking in the kitchen and it had everything we could need. The location was perfect and it was an easy walk to the beach or town even with young children . We have absolutely no complaints and loved every minute ! Also, we were a little worried about having no AC before booking , but in January when we went it was absolutely gorgeous and the house has windows everywhere, so you get the most perfect breeze throughout every room! We didn’t need AC at all. Don’t hesitate- book this house!
