We visit Kaua’i regularly to see family. We decided to stay up in Ha’ena this time. If you love quiet and being surrounded by rainforest and close to the beach this is the place. We love the beach but enjoyed our mornings listening to birds and taking in the oxygen levels of the rainforest. Close to Lahina and some of our favorite beaches this was a great stay.

The cottage was perfect for our 4 night stay. The location is remote, but that is what we loved about it. The cottage was the perfect size, nicely updated kitchen, and clean beds/baths. Will definitely come back to this magical place and will stay here again.

We were completely enchanted by our stay here. It reminded me of the beach cottages I used to stay in as a child but with all the modern amenities! Plenty of beach gear provided and the perfect snorkeling beach a couple of blocks away. We loved it so much we had to extend our stay. Our host Donna, was readily available to answer all our questions and offered many helpful suggestions. All in all, an A+ adventure!

What a beautiful property. Perfectly equipped for me and my husband’s honeymoon. We even made friends with the neighborhood cat. Loved the whole vibe of the place and how it mirrors that of the north side of the island. Would definitely rent again!
Also, I’m from a dry climate and was worried about warm, humid nights, but the ample air conditioning available in the home was wonderful and provided for very comfortable sleeps.

This house was everything we needed for two couples. Various spaces were available to spread out and the amenities were excellent. We even had a visitor cat who was the sweetest possible each day. Thank you!

Photos looked a little better than the reality of the place. But, it was very comfortable. While the gate was a gate, it didn't lock or open/close automatically. Overall, I was very comfortable.

Our stay at Haena was a dream come true. We stayed there for a week, and everything was great. On the first day, there was an annoying noise, and we sent Donna a message. She took care of it immediately and even came by. We were able to solve the problem quickly. The house has everything you need and much more, including a lot of items for the beach. Donna's tips were also very helpful. You can see that a lot of love has gone into this house, and you really feel the Aloha spirit. We will definitely come back! Mahalo, Donna!"

We loved everything about Barefoot Hideaways! The home came equipped with everything we’d need for a 10 day stay on the island. All the beach equipment and the wagon made our daily beach adventures easy to pull off. The proximity to Tunnels and other access points was ideal.
The kitchen is well equipped with all we needed and the bedrooms and bathrooms perfectly comfortable.
We recommend the house to anyone looking for a perfect North Shore getaway. We truly hope to be back soon. Aloha!
