Family vacation
The best part about this property was all the gear - bikes, paddle boards, chairs, etc. We used it all! The beach access is close and easy and we enjoyed using the sand volleyball courts that were set up.

Nice house in Hanalei Bay
This is our second trip to the area. The house was great and perfect size for a family of four. The owner was very nice and responsive. Clean house and lots to do. On a busy road so you can have to walk on the side of the highway to get to the beach, My bad for not asking the question in advance but worth noting. Overall terrific--very comfortable house.

Aloha Elizabeth. We are so happy that you felt our Hanalei Getaway Vacation Rental home was great and perfect size for your family! We are also happy that you felt we were nice and responsive owners. We felt the same for you as guests. Yes our home is behind a vacant lot from the road. We are about two short blocks from the beach. It’s a nice walk and only takes a couple minutes. Unless you are staying beachfront in Hanalei which is definitely a different caliber of home and price you do need to walk along the road to get to the beach. We are extremely happy that you felt our home was overall terrific and a very comfortable house. We hope that you come back and stay again in the very near future. Mike & Leila

Fantastic Hanalei Getaway
Well stocked house in Hanalei, perfect for a family. House has small bedrooms, the 2nd upstairs is quite small, but the common areas are huge and great for gathering. Nice stocked kitchen. Easy access to the beach although it is a 5-10 minute walk, particularly with gear. Note that only 2 of the bedrooms have portable AC units and none in the common areas, the house can get quite warm in the late afternoon/evening if the windows and doors are not left open. Get used to waking up EARLY every day. Not particular to this house, but Kauai roosters crow most of the night but really get going at around 4:30am. Local dogs howl as a group every day starting at 5 or so. Everything revolves around early start, early to bed, the restaurants all close very early as well. Beautiful place to stay, would definitely stay again.

incredibly special wedding week!
Wow, this house was PERFECT! My husband (!!!) and I booked this house for our wedding week and we had some of our close friends stay with us. This house was INCREDIBLE! We had friends and family come over for meals and games and it comfortably fit all 17 of us (and a baby) for group hang outs. The hosts were so responsive, the house was squeaky clean, and the view from the lanai was impeccable! Cannot recommend this place enough! The hosts even gave us some recommendations for photographers for our wedding. We used the surfboards, bikes, grill, and aaaaalll the snorkel gear — it was perfect :) Thank you Mike and Leila!!

Best location top notch hospitality
This house is amazing location beautiful some very spacious and I want to add the host has a gift of hospitality every detail of the home has been thought through. This was a girls trip of 6 women all ages we felt safe and house came with everything we needed. We rode our bikes into town that’s .5 mile away. The entire group was impressed with the home the owner even left baby banana’s from her personal tree and left them on the kitchen table for us. Roosters are up early in this town but it’s a reminder not to sleep your vacation away. I highly recommend and I would definitely come back.

We had the perfect stay at Hanalei Bay here! When I had researched places, I wanted a place with views and close to everything. It definitely met that criteria plus it was charming, comfortable, private, spacious, and had everything you'd need for beach trips. We used the bikes, snorkeling gear, surf boards, beach towels, and beach chairs. It has an all around great Hawaiian vibe! Fun times!

We loved our stay in Hanalei. The house was perfect for our needs. We loved the location. We rode the bikes to the beach and utilized the boogie boards, surfboards, snorkels and beach chairs. Some of that equipment could use updating or repair but it didn’t affect our adventures. Beds were comfortable and plenty of sleeping and seating for our group. We absolutely loved the outdoor showers for cleaning off when we returned from the beach. Thanks for a great stay!

This is a great house and the hosts were amazing. We were a group of twelve, right at capacity for the house. If you have a similarly sized group, communicate with the owners prior to your trip.
