Rental Details
Property Overview
Keone is the downstairs level of a beach house duplex. There are two bedrooms, one bath, a kitchen, dining area and living room (Standard Occupancy is 4*). There is a good sized covered lanai and great ocean views from the living room and the lanai. Just step off the lanai onto the grass & walk to the beach in front.
Keone, the downstairs beach house, is great for easy access. No steps between your bed and the sand! It has a cool relaxed feel. In fact, Keone means the sand or sands in Hawaiian. Hanalei town with its and restaurants & stores are only about 4 - 5 blocks away.
There is a King in the first bedroom with a flatscreen. Twins in the second bedroom for the kids or single friends. If you are two couples, the twins can be made up as a King. An extra bed will be set up in the living room for reservations with 5 Guests.
*Listed rate is for the standard occupancy of 4, but home can accommodate up to 5. The Extra Guest Fee beyond 4 is $20+tax/per night/per person. Only 1 extra person is allowed. This fee is collected after booking.)
Your lanai is a great spot for lounging, lunch, or anytime. Some of our guests get a pretty cloth & cover the picnic table on the grass in front of the lanai for dinner and set a bunch of flowers on it. With others the lanai is home to sand toys and surf boards.
Just walk past the palms & ironwoods to the sand. If you've had enough sun, but not enough beach, under the trees is where you will be. Great place for reading or Scrabble. There are beach chairs for your use.
There is a combined tub shower in the house, as well as an outdoor hot & cold shower at the laundry hut just steps away.
You never know what you will see on the beach. Many people come here to get married, renew vows, celebrate anniversaries, birthdays, even to get baptized! Canoe races, surfers, kite surfers, fishermen, volleyball players. Even with all this activity, most people experience the beach with fewer people on it than they could have dreamed. If you want action go out to the beach and head right. If you want space, go left toward the river mouth.
If you are our guests at Keone, you will enjoy, sun, rain, surf, rainbows, and a great little town set in a fabulously beautiful location.
The State of Hawaii requires a rental agreement. The rental agreement has different cancellation policies than VRBO.

Evacuation instructions will be in the house and notice of the tsunami evacuation zone will be part of your contract.

Reviews
Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: What I wish I had known in advance... Those who love camping, often cherish the ability to be in idyllic locales that don't cater to full-service hotels. Such is the case with Keone on Hanalei Bay. While camping is wonderful when all goes well, if you are stuck in your tent with noisy campers right next door, it's going to be tough to rest, tough to get some peace, tough to get dry. In other words, prepared to be blessed if you hit some good weather without a very noisy family pounding above you. If you happen upon the bad luck of constant pounding from the unit above AND poor weather conditions, your "camping trip" on Hanalei Bay is going to be a tough one.
Incredible location, so special and private. Walkable to town and all of the bay.
We loved our stay in this cute cottage. It was very clean and had everything we needed. Excellent location and access to beach. We enjoyed hanging out on the lanai listening to the waves and watching the sky. Would absolutely stay here again!
Great spot!
Very cute and rustic spot. No frills, but it's all you need when you are on the sand! Thanks again!

The location is perfect, the cottage was always clean and comfortable, quiet and very relaxing. And the hosts were wonderful. We plan to keep coming back. I highly recommend it.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: family time here allows gathering with abundant space to play games and have meals together. located close to town and easy access to beach where the kids could swim. the owner came by and gave us local avocadosand responded to our 1 concern immediately.
The house and neighboring houses are very pretty, feel very Hawaiian. Unobstructed ocean/beach view across front lawn. Looking back to house from lawn opens up to gorgeous view of green jungly mountains. Living room and tropical furniture felt cozy when it rained. North coast is nice with small towns, small roads, less developed beaches. We stayed with our 2 adult kids which was a bit of a squeeze. They shared a room, and we all shared the bath. But the overall experience made the tightness well worth it. Would stay again.
This was probably at least our 5th stay at the Kobyashi’s “compound.” All the properties are in very good shape and well appointed. The views and sound of the surf are awe inspiring. Mahalo nui loa.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved this simple and relaxing stay. The pictures were very accurate. Our kids were able to play frisbee and run on the lawn outside. We could hear the waves crashing and the birds. It was perfect for us, away from the crowds and noise.
Come for the location (steps from Hanalei Bay) and the experience of living on what is one of best, most beautiful beaches anywhere. The home was clean and well appointed but definitely not fancy. But fancy is beside the point when you are surrounded by so much natural beauty. Great experience overall.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great time right on the beach near the water in Hanalei, my favorite part was that there were a bunch of toys available that we could play with the water or on the big green lawn out front. we rented bikes and were able to bike to restaurants and all over the bay! We had such a lovely time I would absolutely stay here again, and suggest it to anyone! We will be back!
If you want to stay ON the beach, this is it! It is not the most luxurious place in Kauai, but it is very comfortable, has everything you need, and if your goal is to be outside and at the beach, this is as good as it gets.
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our stay in this beach bungalow. It was small, but provided the essentials. The view and large grassy area was great for the kids. Our only complaint was we couldn't swim at the beach because of the rip tides - red flags were up. We had to drive to a different part of the bay, which defeats the purpose of paying for this location.
The property was clean, and the location was perfect. Sand was steps away, and it was a 10-minute walk to the shops.
This.condo needs a complete refurbishment. There was no dishwasher. So we washed every dish twice. Before as who washed them and after we used it. The coffee pot is out of motel six. It hold two mugs of coffee and then wash it to make more. There is no ice maker other than ice cube trays. Straight out of the fifties. The furniture need s to be cleaned. Our bottom sheet Was balling The beach towels are worn out. It someone rents the upstairs. It is like no noice barrier. The laundry room is used by 3 houses and is fifty yards away. As is the outdoor shower. The best part is the patio where you can see the ocean. I have rented 7 houses in the north shore this was the worst.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a fantastic time. The house was a perfect size for 5 of us and a great location to the beach.
I absolutely loved this place. Beautiful location. We would definitely stay there again. Two things I would highlight. As clearly stated on the listing, there is no air conditioning. I’m usually hot, my wife is usually cold. There were times we were both still a little hot with the windows open and the fans on, but not so much that we wouldn’t stay. Second, the washer/dryer isn’t in the unit, it is in a communal space with the outside shower. Knowing this, the way it’s listed makes sense, but that’s not how I read it/what I expected. We never had to wait to use them and it wouldn’t keep us from staying here, but I thought I’d include it so it was clear. Again, we loved it!!
It was magical.
What a location!!! We loved it so much will hopefully make it a family tradition. House is super comfortable and clean. Might be time to update some of the kitchenware but had everything we needed. Outdoor shower was a hit with the whole family.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was probably our 7th time at one of the cottages here on this property. We love the location. We love the view. We love being in a place that is true Hawaiian style. We will be back for #8 and then again. (If the PM is reading this a larger coffee maker would be great as well as a full length mirror in the master.)

We live everything about this property and location!
This downstairs unit is old but functioning and the location is excellent. You are ON the Hanalei bay beach and can see the waves breaking from inside the unit and from the lovely covered patio. Roll out of bed and take a nice walk on the beach or paddle out to surf on many of the different breaks around the bay. A lovely 15 min walk to "town" takes you to coffee and bakery in the morning and dinner at night. We were lucky to not have any tenants above us the entire week other than the first night. As expected, it is loud when they walk around above you. The unit was very clean and had everything we needed. Check-in instructions were sent out a full week early from an unexpected sender, so I missed that email, making arrival a little stressful, including a call to vrbo. There is an outdoor shower and laundry a few steps away. Overall, a great place to stay.
