Hawaii> Koloa
- 2 bedroom
- 3 bathroom
- Sleeps 6
Perched above historic Koloa Landing, also known as Hanaka’ape Bay, Hale Honu boasts dominant bay and ocean views. Just off your private lanai is some of the best snorkeling and scuba diving the island has to offer. Giant sea turtles can be seen below swimming and sunning themselves on the rocks and during the winter months you can watch humpback whales breaching outside the reef.
Formerly known as Garden Isle Cottages Ocean Front, we are located in a quiet, coastal neighborhood nestled in tropical foliage, banana and plumeria trees. Two bedrooms and two baths plus upper and lower lounge areas and a full size kitchen make this a most comfortable home. Island casual furnishings offer comfort and functionality. Both upper and lower bedroom suites are air conditioned and identical in size. With approximately 1500 square feet of living area, this home is perfect for a small family or two couples.
On the water, quiet and wonderful, Hale Honu is simply one of the best deals around for oceanfront accommodations and also one of the most conveniently located as it is a short 5 minute walk to some of the best dining and shopping in Poipu at The Shops at Kukui’ula. 2 kings, 1 punee full size (daybed) Sleeps 4-6. AC is ONLY in bedrooms.
This property includes beach chairs, beach towels, a cooler and umbrella. Please feel free to call us if any of these items are missing during your stay.

Words can’t do this place justice. 2 parents and 4 teenagers stayed and everyone agreed, it was our amazing stay of all our trips. The house fit our group perfect and there were 2 people per bathroom and 2 im each bedroom. The upstairs has a couch and a futon type bed. It was too small to fit 2 teenagers but one was fine sleeping on the couch. The views are AMAZING!!! You see sunrises, turtles on rocks, turtles swimming, turtles sunbathing. The outdoor space is so nice to eat at, relax at and just chill. We spent a lot of time outdoors. You can snorkel just outside the house down the stairs and baby beach is a 2 minute walk. You can walk to all the stores. The location is perfect to get to everything within 40 minutes. We will absolutely be back!!!! We would highly recommend this stay to anyone. It was absolute perfection!!!

We couldn’t have been more pleased with this stay, it was like home away from home. Property is 100% immaculate, no details were sparred. Wonderful neighborhood and easy access to amenities. We utilized the outdoor grill and enjoyed home cook meals most of our stay, all kitchen supplies made this very easy.
We definitely recommend and plan to book again in the not to distant future.
Thank you for a remarkable stay!

We loved staying at the perfectly named Hale Honu. The house is beautiful and in a great location. We watched the turtles and enjoyed using the bbq and eating meals outside. There are so many beautiful plants in the gardens and a wonderful view of the river and the ocean.
Many beautiful beaches are within walking distance.
We would highly recommend a stay at this house!

Hale Honu made our family getaway to Kauai a dream! The pictures do not do this house justice. It was a beautiful home and it was hard to say goodbye. We enjoyed morning coffee while watching our new friends, the sea turtles from our patio. The view from both patios was amazing. Evening drinks on the patio was even better. The beds were huge and comfortable., the kitchen was a dream to cook in and the bathrooms had amazing showers with the best water pressure. The A/C in each bedroom made our nights very comfortable. Hale Honu thank you for a wonderful getaway! Until next time!

A quiet little pocket yet walkable to everything, beautiful views, responsive host -impeccably clean and well-maintained property. Much better than a resort. Kitchen fully stocked with clean, well
kept cutlery, etc. Beautiful aesthetic interior design keeping the uniqueness of Kauai and its untouched lush nature feel with you at all times. A gem

This vacation rental is an absolute DREAM! It was immaculate and very up to date/modernized. We traveled to Maui a few years back and this is when we learned that air conditioning was not “common” in Hawaii. I was hopeful since there were only units in the bedrooms that we wouldn’t be miserable. It was so breezy with the sliding doors open upstairs and down that air conditioning was absolutely not needed. We spent most of our time on the lanai watching the turtles. At the end of our trip (sadly) we discovered there was access to actually swim with the turtles. This hidden gem was just steps from the front door around the corner. We would definitely recommend staying here, you won’t regret it!!
