Amazing stay. Extremely relaxing setting and perfect location to explore the north shore beaches and everything else the island has to offer. We traveled with our two young children and the house was tucked away off busy streets and there was plenty for them to explore right outside the front door.Would definitely rent again and loved our special stay in Wainiha.
Great location near beaches. Lots of space. Well appointed kitchen. A little hot when we first arrived but cooled off once widows were opened up.

We had an amazing stay on the north shore in the Hale Oli house. Originally we found the house on Airbnb, but when we saw that Oceanfront Realty managed the rental, we decided to rent directly with them, which made things even smoother. They were quick to answer any questions/enquires we had, the app they use makes communication even easier, and they also offer tips for local activities during your stay.For anyone looking to stay on the north shore in a private home like this, you must be the kind of person who wants this kind of accomodation. Eg, no AC (plenty of fans, but it can get warm), you share your space with adorable creatures like geckos, and there aren't restaurants or stores within walking distance. The stars we could see from the decks were just amazing.If I had to make one recommendation, it would be to have a more detailed list of amenities. Eg, we didn't know the laundry machines were HI, they had an espresso machine we would have totally bought beans for if we had known, there were 4 beach chairs, a cooler, beach umbrella, and beach towels. Kitchen was really well stocked as were the bathrooms! So just more specific info on each property could be useful. We hope to come back soon!

This is a nice place in a nice spot. We did enjoy our time there. The kitchen and amenities were nice, clean, and well maintained. I will note that we were disappointed to find that the house is not as private as the listing/photos lead one to believe. We choose this as it seemed very private. To our surprise, there was a large family living in a yurt right behind the house, and very close to the bedrooms (not exactly private for a honeymoon). They were not inordinately loud other than comings and goings, but it would be nice to know up front and that would have influenced our choice. We weren't overly upset, as what's Kauai without roosters and a family in yurt in the back yard? But...

We had a wonderful vacation staying here for a week. The house was clean, well stocked, and clean. The location couldn’t be better. Our daughters loved saying hi everyday to our friend, Shotgun, in the field next door. The view is amazing from the lanai and the beach is a walk away. Thank you for the beach chairs! A generous touch. We will definitely be back!

We had a wonderful stay! The beds were very comfortable and the view was incredible.
Unbelievable experience staying at this house for 2 weeks in March. Unbelievable views on front porch, quiet and serene environment, and beautiful house. Reality team was incredibly responsive and helpful when needed and easy communications before arrival.
We wanted to disconnect and reset, and this was the perfect place to do it. Close proximity to a myriad of hiking trails, beautiful infant friendly beaches (as you head towards Hanalei), amazing beginner-intermediate surfing in Hanalei Bay, and just all around natural beauty everywhere we looked.
Will definitely return ASAP!! Thank you!
All was good except no bathroom fans which was very disappointing.

From the first day to the last we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, it felt like a home away from home. We arrived late so we were pleased to wake up to a beautiful view of the mountains and surrounding greenery. The outdoor spaces were perfect for morning coffee and meals in the lanai. Quiet and tucked away we relished being able to escape from the tourist areas and walk to the nearby beach. The kitchen was fully stocked and the whole house was immaculately clean. We would definitely come back! Thank you for the hospitality :)
