About this property
Tropical breezes, ocean view and sunny white sand beaches make this an ideal vacation rental house. It is furnished in a traditional island style with a fully equipped kitchen. Upstairs is a large ocean-facing master suite with a California King, an adjoining sun-room with two twin beds and a deck with a 180-degree view towards the ocean. Downstairs are two additional bedrooms each with a queen bed and its own bathroom. The kitchen, dining room and central family room offer plenty of space, sunlight and comfort for all.
Centrally located in the quaint 19th century plantation town of Kapaa on the east shore of Kauai, you will find a variety of activities. A beach protected by a barrier reef is within walking distance. This uncrowded beach is called Baby Beach by the locals because of the gentle surf and safety afforded to smaller children. Other beaches of Kapaa offer windsurfing and kite surfing or enjoy the many surfing spots on the east shore of Kauai.
Also, explore Hawaii's amazing sea life by snorkeling and scuba diving or enjoy fishing. Hike the trails of Nounou (the Sleeping Giant), a Forest Reserve that rewards your effort with views of the entire island. Paddle a kayak up Kauai's Wailua River, one of Hawaii's few navigable rivers and explore the famous Fern Grotto, Secret Falls and the canyons of the Wailua River interior. Golfers appreciate being so close to top-ranked Wailua Golf Course. In the evenings, walk to historic Kapaa Town and enjoy local Hawaiian food and a variety of fine restaurants.
The convenient location of Hale Niu allows easy access to the Na Pali Coast, Princeville and charming Hanalei to the North, Poipu Beach to the South and famous Waimea Canyon to the West.
After a busy day, unwind and relax in the private and peaceful setting of Hale Niu. Sit on the spacious veranda of this traditional Hawaiian-style Kauai vacation rental home and watch the coconut trees sway in a soft tropical breeze.

Fun place to stay. Has pretty much everything you need.
Loved everything about this house and trip overall. The property had all the necessities- beach chairs, umbrella, snorkel gear, and outdoor shower to rinse off the sand. We walked on the bike trail and watched the sun rise each morning and sat on the porch every night. The house is conveniently located right outside downtown Kapaa with lots of shops and restaurants nearby. Perfect.
House needs updating
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: We loved our stay at this Kapa'a, Kauai house. This is a true beach house and not a new, modern place. But we loved the ocean breezes that kept the house cool, the well-stocked kitchen, and the lovely, deep front porch. The layout worked for us and each bedroom had its own bathroom. We were provided with beach chairs, an umbrella, and towels, as well as snorkeling equipment. The house is only about 7 miles from the airport and near the old town of Kapa'a so there were lots of shops, coffee spots, and restaurants/food trucks close by. There is also a nice walking/running path along the coast that is quickly accessible. I would rent this house again in a second. (The rental is handled by an agency and communication is not through the VRBO app once you book. This caused us some confusion initially.)
This was an exceptional property. Homey, comfortable and a fantastic locations.
The Lanai was amazing, very spacious houseEnjoyed the peace and quiet in the evening
This property could use a little updating, but was still very comfortable and we loved having all the room to hang out together as a family! I wish we could see the ocean from the front porch.. it was so nice out there! The beach wasn’t that great so we didn’t go there much.. just took a few walks in the mornings. However, it was very conveniently located so I would absolutely recommend this Vrbo! There is so much to do! Thank you for the stay!

Reviewer Comments: Special appreciation to the staff at the rental office. They were so responsive, friendly, and helpful.
The rental was clean and has a great layout for family get togethers
Did not like having to pick up and drop off the house key. House is in major need of an update; ripped carpeting, old showers with hard to regulate water temperatures, old furnishings, and not enough fans. The best thing was the big front yard. We’ve used VRBO on 5 trips to Kauai and this is the first disappointing stay for us.
Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location.

It was a bit warm during the day inside but the porch offered a continuous breeze and was our go to spot when relaxing. The beach and walking trail were a stone’s throw away. Lots of family memories made! Now having withdrawals from Wailau Shave Ice....the BEST!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The front yard was perfect for family gatherings, volleyball and soccer games. We had a full party of 8 and everyone had space, 3 private bathrooms, and a large functional kitchen. We had access to a washer and dryer which allowed us to stay on top of towels, bathing suits, etc. Great lawn chairs and beach accessories provided which was amazing. We had a fabulous time at this house and its close proximity to the beach was fantastic. Definitely would stay there again

older property that did not exactly fit our needs. We stayed anyway, but wished there were more beds.
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: The vacation house was wonderful - plenty of space, having 3bd/3ba was amazing, and the kitchen was fully stocked. Thank you for providing so many amenities - laundry detergent, plenty of dishes / pots and pans, snorkels, towels, beach chairs. Felt fully fully on vacation w/o having to worry about any amenities. Highly recommend!
We loved the central location! It made it so much easier to do activities all over the island. Grocery store right around the corner! Quiet neighborhood! A little warm without air conditioning but lots of fans and the breeze from the ocean made the nights comfortable. Would definitely stay here again.
The house i very comfortably set up, with bathrooms next to each bedroom, a comfortable living room with TV, an efficient kitchen, a porch with table and chairs and a view of a spacious yard with several palm trees. We thoroughly enjoyed our two week stay.,
This house was perfect for exploring Kauai. Easy walk to the ocean. Fast drive to either side of the island. Plenty of hikes close by. Bike path is right there for biking, running or strolling. Down town Kapa'a is a close walk. Kitchen was very well stocked. Safeway is a close walk. There was plenty of room for all of use. 4 kids shared the upstairs room and the adults each had a room and bathroom. The ocean breeze keeps the house cool. The only thing I would change is a keyless entry so we wouldn't have had to pick up/drop off keys. But that is a very minor improvement. We had a magical week and I would go back and stay in the same spot over and over. Loved Kauai.
The property is a decent size, but looks larger in the photos. The kitchen has everything you need to make full meals. The foldout sofa downstairs has a note that due to rust it cannot be used, but there are still three bedrooms and a total of one king, two queens and two twin beds throughout the house. The pillows and mattresses are VERY firm. The shower in the master is smaller than I expected. The carpet needs to be replaced. There was food trash under the bed in the master. The sliding door in the kitchen does not open fully. That said, the place is spacious and beautiful and it is very close to the beach. You can see the ocean behind the house across the street, and right around the corner is the beach. However, the actual beach access point is at least a five minute walk down the street. There is a cement wall and rock barrier that restricts you from walking on the sand for at least a block. You may have to sleep with the windows open if you are used to central air, and you may need to pack ear plugs because Kauai is full of roosters that crow all day and night. The house is for sale, so I understand why not much is being spent on it, though. It's still on paradise and centrally located to a lot that Kauai has to offer. I'd stay there again.

We stayed in this house with our son, daughter in law and granddaughters. Being on the bike trail we rented bikes for the week. Absolutely amazing.
We spent Thanksgiving at Hale Niu with our children and their spouses. The kitchen is well stocked with cooking utensils and could use a few courtesy items like coffee filters, foil or spices. We played croquet on the front yard and did yoga. Danced under the moon and stars. Thanks for sharing this little Kapa’a gem!

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: We really enjoyed this property, not only is Kapa'a a great central location to the island making it easy to go north, south or west but it is small and pleasant. This house is spacious, clean and uncluttered. It may be dated a bit but it is clean and that is what matters. Most places are dated as it is hard and expensive to get materials to the islands. There are a couple of items needing to be fixed, like the sliding door and a couple of windows but these would not keep from renting again. Having 3 bedrooms w/ 3 bathrooms was key to having 6 adults in the house. The house stays very cool with the fans and louvered windows, being close to the shore allows a lot of cool ocean air to flow in. Having parking was a huge plus too. The home is up for sale, if it were to still be a rental we would look to use it again in the future.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Working with Kauai Vacation Rentals was a wonderful experience. The place my Ohana stayed in was lovely, well furnished, ideal location and exactly as described. This was a special experience for my people. Some here for the first time, others as retuning to The Island. For a larger group like ours (10) it was simply excellent.
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 property has a great location and accommodated 3 adult couples and 2 children ages 10 and12. Everyone had the their own bed and we 100 yards from the ocean. Kapaa is centrally located and worked well as location for the house. We enjoyed it!
Staying at Hale Niu was a great choice for its central location. The 3+ bedroom with 3 baths home was spotless and its size allowed all 5 of us adults to relax and stretch both in and outdoors. The kitchen was wonderfully stocked with dishes, pots and pans and dishwasher and the dining area was delightful. The huge lanai with table and reclining lounges was a favorite! We had a small view of the ocean but ocean access right across the street and beautiful sun rises. Even had a washer and dryer which was very helpful! We loved this home!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location to access everything on the Island. Two very good swimming beaches within 10 minutes. This house is also right next to the beach walk and every morning a good walk was a most delightful way to start the day. I had a couple questions before we arrived and the folks at Kauai Vacation Rentals were friendly, helpful and responsive.
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: This house is in a great central location so one head to Hanalei (north shore) or out west to Waimea Canyon with ease. Close to lots of restaurants, food trucks, beaches and shopping. I loved that there was plenty of parking and no need to worry about finding a spot. Lovely neighborhood and friendly neighbors. The house was fully stocked with plenty kitchen equipment, towels and blankets. BBQ grill was very handy. We stayed with our adult children (& spouses) and having three bathrooms was wonderful. So close to the beach, we got up every morning and walked down to watch the sun rise. The rental company also left us some complimentary tote bags, cooler bags and welcome treats. Overall, we were very pleased and we rent this property again.
All positives to our vacation rental, no negatives!!! We would easily choose this house again! Beds were great, we were able to keep upstairs bedroom sliding door open so we could listen to the waves at night.
