5 min Walk to Beach•Mountain Views•North Shore
This lovely home is private, peaceful, and surrounded by nature. It was a perfect place for our family to stay and enjoy both the natural beauty of north shore Kauai and the fun outdoors. The views of the mountains and greenery from the back of the home are amazing as is the sound of all the birds. Donkeys and horses came tight to the back fence, which our young daughters loved. Great beaches are minutes away. The home is not a far drive from Hanalei and Princeville, and there are also beautiful beaches along the way, so we visited and ate there a few times. This home is fantastic. We would definitely stay here again.

Kimsey Beach Cottage TVNC#5164 TA#060-903-8336-01
If you need to relax in a spacious home on a gorgeous property away from the hustle and bustle but still near amazing restaurants and stores… this is it. This place has an old Hawaii charm with all the modern conveniences. Also, if you are booking any Na Pali tours, this is so convenient and close to the harbor where all the tour companies are located.

The Palm Treehouse
The place surpassed all our expectations. The views from the balcony of the mountains, lush trees, flowers and waterfalls are so beautiful. We definitely want to go back. You will not be disappointed!!

Amazing Oceanview New Delux Home with A/C
Very clean and well appointed condo with ocean view. Recreational gear was available. Host provided notebook with pertinent information about the condo and the area. Parking was readily available.

Da Bay Villa
Fabulous location, steps from Hideaways, short stroll to Queens Bath and 1 Hanalei. We walked everywhere, saw tons of turtles, kitchen is well appointed, exceeded our hopes, thank you!

Reduced rate at Majestic Island Getaway in Wainiha
Great place - would come back in a heartbeat!

Oceanfront Harmony- 4 Bds On the Beach! TVNC 4247
Enjoyed the most mellow and relaxing vacation with my adult children. We walked daily on the great pathway and took in the blue ocean and the peaceful setting. The neighborhood was quiet and what I expected. We enjoyed eating at all the wonderful local places within a casual 20 minute walk. It was rainy this time of the year so sometime we just stayed and chilled in the awesome living room. The house is old so it has its charms but it felt like going to a beach house. There are plenty of windows and we slept with them open and it was very windy at night so we didn’t miss the a/c at all. We are from the Pacific Northwest, my son said he was surprised that 72 degrees could feel so cold and it was funny to see him wear his puffy jacket at times. Anyone staying here in the spring should probably bring a jacket because the wind and moisture can make it feel a lot colder than it should be due to being right next to the ocean. This is an excellent location overall.

New! Haena A-frame home - next to Tunnels Beach
This house was perfect. The porch was nestled up against the forest and we had horses visit us each day. It was a very short walk to a quiet beach and a short drive to Hanalei Bay for groceries. Honestly didn’t feel like we needed to go anywhere else on the island because this place was so relaxing.

Newly Remodeled Hawaii Paradise -North Shore Kauai
Laura, the co-host, was exceptionally proactive and responsive. The accommodation exceeded its advertisement, and parking was convenient. Situated in a safe and quiet neighborhood, the rental's location was ideal. Couldn't have asked for a better experience and would book again!

Aloha Dream | Newly Updated | Kiahuna Plantation
We had a fantastic stay! Anneliese made everything so easy. She provided super clear directions and it was so simple to check in/check out. She was friendly and communicated well. The location is very walkable to the nearby coffee shop, restaurants, and beaches. You can tell these hosts thought about all the little details like the beach chairs, umbrella, beach towels, and beach toys. We really enjoyed it!

*NEW Poipu 2BR Retreat|Pool|AC & Athletic Club
We really did enjoy our stay here, it was easy to check in and it’s about a mile away from some very delicious restaurants and shops. The rec center is down the street and the pictures are as described. Brandon is very responsive and quickly answers your questions and gives useful information. The cottage was quaint, clean, and very cozy and relaxing. It was very clean, however I did have an issue with some things that weren’t thoroughly cleaned and wiped down. I’m very particular as I’m very allergic to dust so I mentioned this to Brandon and he offered to have his cleaner go back and fix the spots that weren’t thoroughly cleaned missed. However it wasn’t anything major as I’m just picky. The kitchen and bedrooms were immaculate and looked brand new. There are tons of supplies in the house and in the garage, which I loved. Brandon was so kind, due to this issue the owner came by and gave my kids candy and a book to read. It was very thoughtful and sweet. Overall great experience.

koolkondo 3203 Makahuena Ocean Front
Overall we had a wonderful stay at Rico and Cinzia's place. Everything was clean and you are right up against rocks with water crashing against them. You can see turtles swimming and even spinner dolphin's one day. It is within walking distance to Poipu beach where you can rent snorkels, boogie boards and surf boards. Also, within walking or driving distance to The Grand Hyatt that has wonderful restaurants or Shipwreck Beach that is a great beach and has an easy explorative walk/hike. If I had one critique it would be for stocking the house a bit more with simple things like pens, games, parchment paper or storage bags.

Honu Hale at Kukui'ula: Elegant Poipu Home w/ Pool
One of the BEST places we have rented. When we walked in the whole family said wow. My 17 year old son hugged me and thanked me for getting this place.

NaluHale, Memories Made Here.
We had a great time here! We loved the location next to the Grand Hyatt and all that they have to offer. You can walk to shipwreck beach 5-10 min. Geralyn was very responsive to any questions we had during our stay. it was hard for us to find a place last minute that would accommodate 7 guests. this place worked out great it's just the right amount of beds. if you are looking to stay in Poipu/Koloa this is a great option. We loved all the beach gear available for use in the garage. Very convenient. Hope to be back again sometime in the future.

Taro Suite at Walelia Getaway
James and Sara’s place exceeded our expectations. Incredible location in Poipu, a beautiful “studio” suite with all the amenities you want including a private pool and efficiency kitchen, very responsive hosts, and a truly great value considering this area is in high demand. I would stay again, and I highly recommend these excellent accommodations!

Aikane Kauai Ocean View 3 Bedroom Home with A/C
We loved our stay at Christofer’s place! The location is incredible! Poipu beach is just a few steps from the house, and we really enjoyed seeing the turtles sleeping on the beach. The house is warm, confortable and fully equipped. The beds and linens were excellent, and we loved the balcony views! Christofer was responsive and extremely helpful. We are looking forward to staying at this place again soon!

Hale Maile, Adorable, beautiful Hanalei home TVNC#
You can’t beat the location. Easy walk to Hanalei Bay beach for surf. Short drive to the state park or to Anini beach for calm snorkeling. Walk to the Hanalei bread company for breakfast and coffee. It’s beautiful. The house was clean and well appointed. Lack of air conditioning was not a problem for us with windows and sliding doors open. The second bedroom entrance is outside down the elevated deck. This was fine for us, but might be a problem if traveling with small children.

Your own private oceanview Cottage 16 C
We have stayed at many different properties of Susanne’s over the years, and this was one of our favorite places to stay. Exactly as depicted in the ad. Super clean and super convenient. We can’t wait to come back to Kauai and stay in one of Susanne’s properties in the future.

Heavenly VIEWS - OCEAN, Sky & Landscape 4Br3Ba A/C
We had a fabulous visit. The house was as described and matched the photos. The kitchen was well-quipped. We loved the view from the back deck. Our group of 8 made good use of the beach chairs, boogie boards and snorkel equipment provided in the garage. One unexpected thing we discovered while walking is that albatrosses live in Princeville. We found a pair in a cul-de-sac at the end of Keoniana Rd. just a short walk from Thames place. Thank you Thames and Aida for a wonderful stay.

Oceanfront Beach Cottage: Hawaii at it's best!
The host was very responsive and addressed our concerns quickly, which we really appreciated. We booked last minute, and while the property wasn’t ready upon arrival, the host promptly sent a cleaner to take care of it. Once everything was taken care of, we were able to relax and enjoy our stay. The view is absolutely wonderful, and despite the initial hiccup, we would definitely book this place again!

Hale Mauka Makai. New Listing.
This home was fabulous and exceeded our expectations. The layout is perfect for a larger family or group. The kitchen is well stocked for cooking and BBQing. The views are spectacular from the gorgeous deck. The location is perfect to frequent restaurants, sites, and outdoor activities. Our family made lasting memories and we would rank the home a 10!!!!

Hibiscus Beach Cottage, Steps to Beach, TVNC#5067
Most Excellent! Located next to a great beach in a local neighborhood close to Kapaa and the Nepali coast and all the amazing beaches in between

Tropical Paradise with Golf Course &Mountain Views
We booked Daniela’s home for a wedding we attended on the nearby golf course. Beautiful location, comfortable home, responsive host. Also have to mention the fully stocked kitchen was a huge plus we felt right at home. With a grocery store a 5 minute drive away it was so convenient. Daniela was super proactive reaching out before the trip and even checking in on us while we were there. Super easy to contact her with any questions. Would definitely recommend!
