Property Description
Live like a local in this professionally designed two bedroom, two bath retreat, offering the perfect blend of luxury and laid back Hawaiian charm. The area is known for its slowed down pace and ocean-centric lifestyle to escape the hustle and bustle of city life.
The area is famous for its beautiful beaches, actually considered some of the most beautiful in the world.
There is hiking, beaching, surfing, snorkeling, fishing, shelling and lovely walks.

Below the home is a beautifully landscaped yard with a large lawn to play croquet or bocce ball. The fire pit surrounded by Adirondack chairs is to have an enjoyable evening to talk story. The stargazing is a Must at night!
Just a short 10 minute drive winding along the coast brings you to Hanalei Town, where you can enjoy a delicious meal at one of the many local restaurants, or do some shopping at the wide array of charming boutiques.

Quiet neighborhood, there were a lot of young kids in the neighborhood that enjoyed playing in the yard next door and this houses yard over the weekend. They were having fun and were gone by early evening.
Well stocked house, the manager was very responsive. The beds are very comfortable! Fans in every room were appreciated.
Kitchen had everything we needed! About 15 minute drive to Hanalei with many great restaurants and a pier/beach.
Beautiful views of the mountains and landscape, close access to beaches and snorkeling (10-20 minute walk).

We just returned from a much needed getaway in Haena! Our favorite place on Earth! Our stay was relaxing and the home was beautiful! It was the perfect size for my husband and I, as well as our 2 friends who joined us for part of our stay. We appreciated that this home was stocked with items that helped make us feel more at home. The generous amount of kitchen utensils and appliances, as well as towels and laundry items were a plus. We enjoyed many meals outside on the Lanai while enjoying the beauty of the sunsets and sounds of the birds chirping. The location was perfect and within walking distance to our favorite beach where we were lucky enough to snorkel with many large turtles and other seal life. Acacia and Lonnie couldn't have been more helpful and attentive! When speaking with Lonnie over the phone I felt as though I was speaking to a life long friend! Overall we had a beautiful and memorable trip in this beautiful home! We would definitely stay time and time again! Also, as a side note, my husband and I thought that the time and effort that was put into the small details of the home were fantastic! They took the time to put together a binder full of useful information such as restaurants and the different activities you could do while on your trip. It also included phone numbers in case of an emergency. I felt this showed just how much care goes into ensuring their guests get the most out of their trip! We truly felt at home away from our home.

Beautifully appointed home in a dream location. Nestled in a quiet neighborhood just 5 minutes walk from the beach, this home is a perfect getaway. The home has comfortable living space and two private in suite bedrooms. The kitchen host top quality appliances and all one would need to cook. The a manager as well as the owner are incredibly responsive and attentive toneven the most trivial question. Top of the line experience and unquestionably the best vrbo in my experience with about two dozen properties

We had a lovely visit to Kauai and really enjoyed the Hula Hale house. We loved being able to walk to the beach from the house and everything we needed was provided. The house is a bit of a drive even to Hanalei Bay, but once we got used to that, it wasn't a problem. It's a lovely spot and one we hope to visit again!

We loved our stay. Great hosts who took care of our needs and a fantastic neighborhood! I was very comfortable and fell in love with the horses across the way and the birds on the property.

Great property set in a Jungle Mountain setting.
Perfect for getting away!
Beach toys were perfect for the beach activities

The house is located in a very quiet and private location with lovely unobstructed views of the mountain. You could tell that this was a very seasoned rental home that accommodated us with every possible need that we had and was meticulously clean and tidy. The beach at the end of the street was great for a quick dip and tunnels beach was a quick drive for the more adventurous. The drive to Hanalei bay was quite enjoyable.
Perfect to get away from it all.

This is a mixed review.
There is much to like about this home and location. Beach access was great. The close-by Hanalei Colony Resort provided access to restaurant meals and the shuttle that runs to Hā’ena Park. We loved our visit to the nearby Limahuli Garden & Preserve.
My son and I snorkeled daily, sometimes twice, at Tunnels Beach. The home itself is lovely, and well-designed. The two bed/bath areas are on opposite ends of the house—nicely private. The house is packed with interesting furnishings: beautiful old surf boards & grass skirts & art pieces on the walls. The garden is beautiful. It was a quiet neighborhood.
Considerations:
Unreliable clothes washer & dryer. Had to un-plug/reset several times each use.
No kitchen towels—had to use a bathroom face towel. No facial tissue supplied in bathrooms. (Seems picky, but we’ve never stayed in a place without these basics.)
Except for kitchen counters, there were no empty horizontal surfaces. All tables (side, dining, nightstands, etc.) were full of interesting decorative items (candles, jars of shells, etc). We had to move them all aside before we could sit down to a meal together or have a flat work surface. Felt awkward, not knowing how valuable the items were.
One sliding glass door off bedroom would not lock, no way to secure in spite of thre request to always lock up home when not present.
Appreciated your note to feed the fish on the lanai. But please advise guests about the ones down in the yard.

our stay at hula hale was fantastic. the house was beautifully decorated and well stocked with anything you needed. the proximity to beautiful beaches on the north shore was a plus. we rented bicycles from the bike doktor
which helped with the limited parking access to many of the beaches. highly recommend a boat tour of the napali coast also. everything was just stunning.

We had a wonderful weeklong stay here. A comfortable, beautifully located home, equipped with virtually everything you might need during your stay. Walking distance to at least a couple of uncrowded beaches, a big gift since the popular beaches can be hard to access due to limited parking. A couple of cautions for some folks: As advertised, the stairs are daunting — more than a full flight up. We’re in our mid-70s, in good though not athletic shape, and for us the stairs were manageable, though getting the luggage up and down was *not* easy. Also, no AC: The up side is that having the house open really brings the outside in, and the Kauai air is glorious. Down side: We were hot at moments. All in all, well worth the trade-off for us but perhaps not for everyone. The road from Hanalei is narrow, with several one-lane bridges, and there’s a good deal of traffic headed to Tunnels Beach and Haena State Park, but everyone was responsible and courteous. If you’re good with the stairs and no AC, this is a perfect getaway.

We loved this home. It was perfectly clean upon our arrival and so well stocked with everything you’d ever need. Lots of extra bath towels, beach towels, pillows and blankets. The location is perfect if you like the serenity of the north shore. It is about a 15 minute walk to tunnels, our favorite beach. A short drive to Hanalei and only a five minute walk to the restaurant at Hanalei colony resort. The kitchen is very well stocked, so we grilled most nights rather than go out.

Great house that is clean and located exactly where you'd want to be while visiting the north side of Kauai. Would and will stay here again. The host was fantastic!

My most favorite perk of this house was the view! The porch was the perfect place to drink a coffee in the morning and relax in the evening after adventuring all day. The neighborhood was quiet and calm, and a short drive to our preferred beach. The beds were cozy, everything was CLEAN and it just worked out great for my family of 4. I did need to contact owners after the wind knocked out the power but they were helpful and easy to talk to. We would definitely stay here again.

Acacia & Keith's property was immaculate and pictures dont do the place justice...from inside out! Check in and check out process was seamless. We reached out to Acacia several different times and she was super responsive. Location is unbeatable - about a 5 minute walk to a local private beach which had great snorkeling. There was also an area sectioned off for a resting pregnant Monk Seal who was soon joined by her pup. We spent a full day relaxing there and enjoyed the interaction between the two while they rested on the beach. Tunnels and Haena State Park/beach are a short drive down the road as are the shops and restaurants in town. There is an option to rent bikes but we decided not to. However i do think it would be a fun way to get around. As fitness enthusiasts there is just so much to see and do on the north shore. If you scuba dive, Fathom Five offers a great shore dive at Tunnels. If you want to workout at a great gym id strongly suggest Kilauea Phys Ed in Kilauea about a 30 minute drive (very nice facility). Princeville is close and we finally made it to Queens Bath after 3 trips to the island...its a must! I could go on and on but our trip.up north was nothing short.of amazing and it wouldnt have been possible without our stay at Hula Hale. Mahalo!
