Mesmerizing ocean view corner walkout unit *wifi*
Absolutely loved our stay at this Airbnb in Kauai! The views were breathtaking—we couldn’t get enough of watching the ocean right from the property. The space was spotless and felt super comfortable, and Brandi was a fantastic host—friendly, responsive, and made everything easy from start to finish. But the real magic? Sleeping with the windows open and hearing the waves crash all night long. It was like having a real-life sound machine, only better. So peaceful and relaxing—we’ve never slept so well! Would come back in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!

This condo was the PERFECT location, especially with kiddos. The huge lawn was so fun to play on, we could walk to two beaches including Poipu and the coffee shop across the street was soooo yummy, we went to the pool at the Athletic Club everyday which was so fun and convenient and it was great that both the pool and beach had towel rentals (free). We even got snorkel rentals right at the beach. The condo was equipped with an umbrella, boogie boards, sand toys, beach chairs which made for a really comfortable time.

Modern Ocean Views with AC
When we return to Kauai, our trip will be based around when we can book C5, as we felt everything was amazing and perfect for our liking. Thank you Greg!!

Unique Garden Hideaway
Great spot to stay. Commutation was clear and we got excellent advice once we arrived on the local things to try out. It’s advertised as shared but you get all the privacy of having your own place. They have starwars chopsticks which light up like light sabers: totally lit up our dinners.

Jewel of the Pacific. Oceanfront condo at Sealodge
Cash’s place was great with an amazing view and easy walk to see a great sunset

*Walk to the Beach and Westin!* | Sleeps 6
Craig’s condo was the perfect place! Located in Princeville close to many restaurants, beaches, and walking trails. The condo offered great light and was spacious. Although it was just two of us (and our pup), the condo could comfortably accommodate a family or group. We would definitely recommend for a vacation in the Princeville/Hanalei area.

Ocean and Mountain Views! | Hanalei Bay Resort
Great condo in a great resort! Waking up to the view in the backyard is all I have to say. Absolutely gorgeous. In addition to that, the condo itself was wonderful. Extremely spacious. The host was great, as well. I would definitely stay here again! Just a great experience overall.

Comfortable Hale on the north shore
Evans was an amazing host! He gave us plenty of local recommendations, and even lent us some of his own belongings to use for the beach! Very gracious and hospitable!

Ocean View Hideaway
Lauren reached out to us that we could check in early, she was also so kind to let us have a late check in as well. The unit was so beautiful with stunning ocean views. Would definitely stay again and tell our friends about this special spot.

Aloha Kai: Oceanfront @ Lae Nani's Newest Reno, AC
Our stay at Jon's condo was AMAZING!!!!!! The entire property is so beautiful and so well maintained. The amount of flowers are so beautiful! The condo is perfect from the minute you walk in! The view out the slider of the beautiful grass area that flows right on to the beach and ocean was spectacular!! There's absolutely everything you need in the condo and it is beautiful. We felt right at home the minute we walked in! In less than a 5 minute walk there's the Lava Lava Beach Club for dining and cocktails on the beach. They have live music in the evening which we really enjoyed. Also the Coconut Marketplace is just another few minutes past Lava Lava. There's restaurants and shops were great. Whatever you do you Must have a Shave Ice at JoJo's! The best! We would certainly stay there again and are looking forward to a return visit!! Mahalo Jon and Sabrina!!

The Hideaway - Pali Ke Kua Ocean Views (with AC!)
We LOVED this little place. By far, this was our favorite Airbnb we have ever stayed at! The space was clean, spacious, and decorated so cute! Loved the bathroom counter space and large shower too. Our favorite was watching the sunset from the patio every single night; we made sure to be back every night because of the view! AMAZING! Also truly appreciated the beach gear (chairs, toys, umbrella, boogie boards, etc.) that saved us money from renting. Loved the hose on the back porch to spray everything off. The closet was also fully stocked with so many amenities including 2 cooler packs that we used daily. We absolutely will be back! Loved every second!

Heavenly Place Oceanfront 1 Bedroom Condo
Very nice, quiet location, close to everything, yet private. Well-equipped unit with everything, including beach and snorkeling gear. Very responsive hosts providing ample instructions, we haven't had any extra questions, everything was clearly explained. Will definitely come again recommend to friends.

Lagoon View Resort Retreat
We really enjoyed our stay and all of the amenities the resort had to offer. It was very quiet, felt very private and safe. Jen was a great host, very responsive and so welcoming to our family. The lagoon view resort retreat was great checked all of the boxes for our family of three. It was centrally located to everything on the east side of the island. We fell in love with Kaua’i and will be back. We highly recommended staying at Jen’s place.

Oceanfront, Million Dollar View, Fully Renovated
Provided a clean picture with amazing view. Great communication. Had all the beach gear you could need for a great beach day (umbrella, towels, snorkeling gear, chairs, cooler, and more). Also, the hiking poles were amazing to have for those long hikes. AC unit in bedroom kept it nice and cold for a great night’s rest. Would recommend this place to anyone looking for an Airbnb on Kauai.

Oceanfront Studio #147, Islander on the Beach
Had a wonderful stay here! The place was clean, comfortable, and had a stunning view. Perfect spot to relax and enjoy the island. Would definitely stay here again!

Beach front unit with breathtaking ocean view & AC
Great place! The area is very scenic and walkable with the beach steps away! We loved watching the waves and walking along the beach. The lanai had some nice views as well & it is very peaceful to sit there in the evenings :) This place was perfect for just the two of us and we had what we needed to enjoy our time in Kauai! I would add that the chickens congregate in the area and tend to make their voices heard come early morning (very common in Kauai I believe) - light sleepers might want to consider some loops or ear plugs :) Thanks Bryant & Jane!

Beautiful OCEAN VIEW with free Parking & Top Floor
WOW we loved this location so much!!! Right across the parking lot there are shops and an ABC market. Then RIGHT next door is Imua coffee which has the besttt coffee and gf df bfast item. Then the hotel next door has yoga every morning at 830am- drop-ins allowed for all!! This Airbnb has some units in the building operating as hotel, so it very much gave a hotel feel with spectacular grounds and clean everywhere. Would recommend for proximity to airport, and distance to north and South Island.

New! Oceanfront Haena Cottage - Steps to the Beach
Beautiful and secluded location right on the water. The views are unmatched. The cottage is removed from the crowds around Hanalei which is great for privacy but will be a decent drive to most restaurants and stores. The cottage maximizes the views with large windows facing the water. Since there is not A/C in the cottage (as indicated in the listing), we'd recommend to future guests to try and arrive in the afternoon to get the fans going and open the windows so that you can sleep at a comfortable temperature. We really enjoyed our stay here and would definitely recommend it.

Beach Front paradise KS unit 6
This was a wonderful place to stay on the island and Enas was always quick to respond to my questions and very helpful. It was SO great to have beach equipment, parking, and the lovely sound of the ocean to make our stay extra fantastic. Would stay here again in a heartbeat! Thank you Enas!

Lava Lounge-Pool view/walkout access, 2 Queen Beds
The place looked like the pictures & had everything as listed. The A/C, pools, & hot tubs were the highlight. The resort itself though wasn't our favorite. Construction on the rooms started at 6/6:30AM on the weekdays. The door has no sound proofing so you can hear everything happening in the hallway including the construction. The shower head is too low (I'm 5'9 & SO is 6'2 for reference) & there was little water pressure. The beds are medium soft but more on the soft side. Our least favorite part was the fact that the parking lot is about a 5-7min trek to the room & that the 1 microwave in the entire resort is 2 different elevator rides away.

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.

If You Deserve the Best, This is it!
Shari communicates very well. Save the codes to get in the gates as you will need them. Great location. Great beach, pool and condo. Nice amenities. No AC but don’t need it. Look forward to coming back

Lil' Piece of Paradise Lihue Kauai - No Resort Fee
This place was very clean and just as described! Andrew also had amenities like cooler, play pen and beach chairs/umbrella available if needed. The bed is SO comfy and I love that they also provided the large bottles for body wash, shampoo & conditioner. The location is close to the airport and close to Kapa'a!! So convenient. The check-in process was interesting - After a long day, we checked in and the front desk rep stated that they didn't have our reservation and they were booked and had no availability (which would put anyone in a frenzy!) He stated that the Airbnb host will send the front desk the reservation and they build a profile. So as I'm standing there.. confused.. I show him the booking with the suite number and they finally found it! So if this happens to you - just show them the confirmation!! After that, all was well. I would still recommend this place and I'd definitely would stay here again!

Tropical Paradise at HBR,beach access,AC & kitchen
We loved our stay here. My wife & I were both impressed with the room itself - great kitchen with new appliances , convenient coffee bar, spacious bathroom and shower, and very nice to have in-unit laundry with detergent supplied for us! The place also had all the beach gear you could need. Then, the resort amenities were top notch. Great pool & hot tub, lovely fire pit seating area with spectacular views, and great activities available like tennis and pickleball. There’s a bit of a walk down to the beach, but the resort offers complimentary golf cart rides that were always quickly accessible for us if we didn’t want to walk. And, getting down to the beach was absolutely worth it - gorgeous views! We will hope to be back again!
