The most amazing VRBO we have ever stayed in. We loved the privacy, the house was absolutely perfect, and the beach was the best part of it all.

Property and home where better than the pictures showed, high end through out. Very comfortable in every way. Beach below was amazing and very private with only 15 people max each time we visited. Close to town, but far enough away. We will be back!

Rest and relaxation

Overall our stay was wonderful. Beautiful views, cozy cottage with privacy, and access to a great quiet beach. Only comment would be storage. No place to hang clothes nor any place to store groceries. We plan to stay again. Disappointed price has gone up twice since I first found location. My wife and I stay on the north shore often and thought this was best time we have had - and we have stayed at some great places.

Great Stay!

We had a great time here! Everything we needed + everything we wanted...incredible views w/everything from mountains to whales, private access to a beautiful beach (w/a little bit of a hike), hot tub! The nenes wanted to visit quite a bit so we used the hose to discourage them a little. The little town is great while being close to other beaches and attractions. We would highly recommend!

Beautiful property with mediocre management

The property is amazing. Private. Perfect for a couple. But the check in and the help from the property manager was mediocre at best. It was confusing to receive emails and texts from different people or companies. I got the feeling that the manager didn't want to be bothered. If it weren't for the confusing check in and the lack of customer service, I would give this property a 5 star.

Great time in Kilauea

Phenomenal view. The cottage is small but has everything we needed including beach chairs and towels and laundry machines. The finishings are upgraded and luxurious. Because of the acreage of the property, you feel secluded and barely see two other homes. The location is close to the light house, Secret Beach and restaurants in Kilauea. We had a great stay.

Views for literal miles

Such a rich scenery makes up for any short comings the cottage may have (which were not many!) It was perfect for 2 people, we loved the privacy and the concierge service. They were able to find a chef to cook us a private dinner at the home for my birthday. BEST BIRTHDAY EVER

Panoramic Paradise !

Pure enchantment! This was what everyone dreams about! Views were simply amazing from every spot on the property! Romantically secluded but only minutes from stores and restaurants. Access to one of the most beautiful beaches! The grounds were spacious and the backyard garden area was brimming with tropical flowers foliage and small pond. The indoor rain waterfall shower was a relaxing delight! Whales,birds,geckos,rainbows,crashing waves, star filled night skies!

Perfect Kauai experience

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house is the perfect Kauai experience on the North shore. Secluded and upscale with an incredible beach and 2 minute drive from great restaurants. No air conditioning was actually a blessing. Trade winds kept the house comfortable and cool at night. Nothing better than the sound of a Kauai thunderstorm at night. Definitely recommend this rental.

Love!

Amazing place to stay, views are incredible - the private/personal beach access really made this place. Outdoor shower was so pretty and enjoyable (hot water also!) AC works well but only in the living room . The bedroom does get extremely hot and humid, even with the fans. Lucky we only experienced 82 degree weather so it wasn’t toooo humid. It did rain our first day so we didn’t get to go to beach but the hot tub was a good 2nd Saw beautiful rainbows in the morning and this is a west facing property so the sunset eveynight was amazing! Would definitley stay Here again.

Fantastic Property and Getaway

This cottage was a dream. Check-in and out were seamless. The house is a fun retreat....we cooked/grilled every night. The kitchen has nice cookware/appliances and had salt, pepper, and cooking oil. Beyond that, you will need to bring spices and whatever you want to cook. DoorDash is available to bring groceries if you wish to relax....but the Kilauea Market and the Healthy Hut Market are close and have most everything. Communication with the property manager was quick, and our one minor concern was addressed in a timely manner. Many reviews mention the A/C.... They are mounted close to the ceiling and remote controlled. Make sure to slide open the bottom of the remote for more controls, point it at the unit, and it will work fine. We did heed the warnings in the booking and the contract about potential construction.... it is a valid warning. The adjacent tract of land has a lot going on, but the noise was minimal during our stay. Someone was working, though, adjacent to the house preparing the ground for construction of another cottage. I would strongly recommend checking the status of construction on the property before booking if that is something that would bother you, as it looked like in the near future there might be some building going on very close to the house. Otherwise, book it and love it!!!

Paradise

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I am almost hesitant to write such a glowing review because I want to keep this place a secret. The property is private, luxurious, beautiful and well-equipped. Honestly, it had everything we needed. Of course, everything could always be improved and my only suggestions would be to have some type of bluetooth speaker on hand, yoga mats, and to plant a few fruit trees on the vast property. But then we probably would have refused to leave. We can't wait to go back.

Wonderful Romantic Getaway

The property is amazing and perfectly situated above secret beach. Great location and very nicely outfitted. The hot tub and outdoor shower are superb, and it's a truly lovely escape. That said, that the air con unit in the cottage is not sufficient - the main room is fine, but the bedroom gets quite stuffy. Numerous people have commented on this in the reviews, although we thought we would give it a try anyway since it is listed as having air con and we thought it might be sufficient - but definitely not. For the price that you pay, it should be top of the line. Adding another unit in the bedroom is a simple thing that would go a long way for this property (and yes the wallpaper is peeling, but that's a small thing that doesn't really impact the stay).

Gorgeous piece of property, stay here if for that reason alone

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Just returned from 11 nights at Hale Nanea. The property is stunning, Na Pali coast in the distance, ocean in front of you, and sunsets that dive into the ocean right before your very eyes. The cottage itself is nice, it has some wear for sure. Things like window coverings that are busted, and don't provide room darkness, torn wallpaper etc...though this shouldn't keep you from renting as the property itself is worth it. Well stocked kitchen, nice jacuzzi, comfy bed.The property manager, Eric, took great care of us. Stay at this unit, before the property is sold for a gazillion dollars.

Great Outdoor Space

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Amazing location with access to a beautiful very secluded beach. The property itself is old, outdated, and rundown with peeling wallpaper, and holes in walls, lizards and creepy crawlies are regular visitors. We reached out to the Hawaii Life host immediately upon check and never recd a response from the "local host". The AC is located in the living area and does not cool the bedroom, was warm but tolerable in October. Location a 5, the property is a 1.

Gorgeous escape, upgrades need

Loved our time in Kauai and the exclusivity the property gives you. Hard to beat! Private Beach is incredible as well. This very small house is just enough to give you what you need. Two things to keep in mind: the “walk” to the beach is more of a steep hike. Highly recommend driving your car down but be careful on the steep winding roads. Second and most important: the AC unit is wildly inadequate. The afternoon sun bakes the house and the AC can never recover in the master. It doesn’t get below 75/76. We used a portable window AC unit (<$300) that fixed it instantly. The property manager chose to not keep this cheap but effective fix for some reason but that’s all this place needs to earn a 5 star review
