Tucked away on over an acre of lush paradise along the Wainiha Stream in an ancient grove of 100 ft. tall mango trees lies the Hale Wainiha. Offering privacy, rest and refreshment, this charming home sits on a bluff overlooking an expansive view of the entire river valley with neighboring taro farm and spectacular vistas of distant mountains. Relax and enjoy the amazing views from the deck or from your private pool and hot tub. Starry nights in the hot tub are truly magical. And the pool is cool and refreshing after a hot day at the beach. Or the perfect morning wake up. The large yard is like a botanical garden filled with exotic birds and flowers and fruit trees. Pick a Papaya or a Banana, cut some giant Heliconia flowers. This lush valley is a serene retreat, nourishing the soul with natures greatest beauty while offering all the modern comforts of home, you almost won't want to leave the property. But when you do, it is ridiculously close to the best beaches on the island, Tunnels, Lumahai, Ke'e and Hanalei. Firstly, Lumaha'i, just 1 mile away, with its long deep stretches of soft sand broken by picturesque protrusions of lava rocks creating dramatic ocean breaks. Tunnels Beach has an amazing reef and offers the best snorkeling on the island, also surfing and the mountain backdrop creates amazing views. At the end of the road is the dramatic Ke'e beach. Besides its great snorkeling, and sunsets, this is the gateway to the amazing Napali Coast offering one of the worlds most spectacular hikes. The 2 mile hike to Hanakapia'i Beach with it's expansive ocean vistas is a 'must do', but if you can do the additional 2 miles to the Hanakapia'i Falls you're in for the treat of a lifetime. A large pool fed by a 300' waterfall, just spectacular!! Wainiha is surrounded by the best snorkeling, surfing, kayaking and hiking on all of the Hawaiian islands. You'll never have to leave this magical corner of the island.
Just 4 miles away is Hanalei Bay with its pristine 3 mile crescent beach of fine sand and perfect surf. The quaint town of Hanalei offers interesting shops, a market, and world class dining. My personal favorites are 'Tahiti Nui' (live music, good Mai Tais) and the 'Dolphin' (freshest sushi you've ever eaten). You can rent kayaks and paddle up the Hanalei river or out to the bay, paddle to Hideaways beach and snorkel, or just land at the St. Regis beach and have lunch at the poolside cafe, (sneak a dip in their beautiful...

Easily the best property we've ever stayed at. Not only is the exterior breathtaking, the interior is super spacious & modernly updated. Only advice I'd give is to try & arrive before the sun goes down, as the drive in can be tough in the dark. Highly recommend for a couple's getaway.

I can't recommend this property enough. VRBO can be difficult to tell if the pictures are accurate, but this property definitely delivers on ALL promises and more. If you're looking for a quiet, private little getaway spot, this is it.

Everything about this place is amazing. There are no adequate words to describe the view. Just incredible. No lights at night, we could see the stars. Very private, comfortable, the bathroom looked new, love the shower! New appliances in the kitchen. Small, perfect for two. The decks were excellent love eating out there in the scenery. Birds everywhere. One cool detail.. most of the watercolors and prints in the house seem to be done by the owner. They are beautiful. So convenient to the northern beaches!

We booked Hale Wainiha to celebrate our 10th anniversary and were not disappointed in our choice. The property is exactly as listed and is a wonderful place to hang out after spending our days exploring Kaua’i. The lush jungle views offered by Wainiha Valley from the lanai during the day are exceptional and star gazing from the hot tub and pool at night is absolutely stunning. We enjoyed watching the nene come and go from the stream that runs through the valley. Jeffrey is a talented artist and his watercolor paintings are a joy to see hanging on the walls.

We had a wonderful stay at this secluded slice of paradise. Off the beaten path, it was the perfect place to disconnect and relax, while still being within an easy drive of town, beaches, and other attractions. We thoroughly enjoyed our time, and the only drawback was that it would have been nice to have more towels for the week. But overall, an amazing experience!

The wrong address was given for check in. Was a bit stressful finding it.

Awesome. It was awesome.
Neighbors are allot closer than pictures would suggest. 3 houses within 100 feet, BUT it was still extremely private. Jungle living I guess. We could never find the trail down to the small river/creek but we could see it. The outside shower was my favorite. Taking a hot shower outside in the garden of Eden was pretty amazing. Very well kept, clean, updated. The property manager always communicated back quickly with any questions we had. We loved it.
