Perfect Hanalei Getaway

Wonderful Location to everything!

This rental house is really well maintained. Very clean and well appointed. Lovely wood interior. It had everything we needed. Being able to walk just about everywhere was fantastic.

Comfy, low key piece of Paradise

Our family (husband, myself, two boys,16 and 11) had a great stay at this property. Super clean and comfortable. It's a well-lived-in house, meaning no granite countertops or fancy tiles in the bathroom. The outdoor shower is grand and the location is superb. Yes, the roosters are noisy, but they are literally everywhere. So I think you would hear them wherever you stayed in Hanalei. Overall, we enjoyed our stay here and would recommend.

Great Location

Would have given 5 stars, the property deserves it, but the resident rooster crowed the entire night. And the property behind us was under construction the whole week and were very loud (air compressor, nail gun) so it was not a relaxing place during the day. We would have appreciated a heads up on that. The property itself was perfect for us and close to the beach and downtown. It would have been lovely if it were not for all the racket.

Loved it!

Clean house with a 5 minute walk from the beach and from shops & restaurants. Has that 1970s surfer house vibe. Beach chairs, towels, kitchen appliances provided. We loved the outdoor shower. If you haven't been to Hanalei before know that it is gorgeous but is definitely the wet side of the island.

Cozy cottage steps from the heart of Hanalei

Perfect location only a 2 minute walk to the restaurants and shops and 2 minutes to the beach. Cozy cottage had everything we needed(just wish it had surf boards or boogies boards). Comfortable bed and the outdoor shower was wonderful! We loved being greeted by the geckos every morning. Roosters weren’t a bother at all. We will definitely be back.

Mixed opinion about the property. The good: - central location in Hanalei while being in a very quiet area - in walking distance to beach and town - wonderful outdoor area - clean The not-so-good: - very outdated interior (price-value not balanced) - not well-insulated from outside noise (be prepared to wake up every day by 3 am thanks to the roosters that live outside) - neighbor complaining about noise from watching TV at reasonable volume in a rather rude way. We are seasoned travelers and very respectful towards locals wherever we go but this made us feel unwelcome. On the bright side another neighbor stopped by the next morning and apologized for her.

Lovely Puanani!!

We loved the old school Hawaiian vibe here-quiet neighborhood (except for the roosters which lend a charm until they wake you at 2,3,4,5 am🙀), the house is simple and quiet and a perfect location. We will be back!! One comment-although the couch is cool looking it’s not very comfy. We loved having beach gear available to us. It’s a wonderful hane! Mahalo! 🌸🌺🌸

The house is fantastic. The neighbor is not.

The house is adorable and cozy. The VRBO description about the neighborhood being quiet is misleading. There is a crazy neighbor who comes over to yell, scream, cuss us out and threaten to call the cops because we were in the living room with our 12 year old watching a movie after 9am. The property management company told us they have more problems with her than any other property on the island. The homeowners and management company need to be a better job disclosing the truth about the neighborhood. The other neighbors were all lovely, just this one person who was bent on taking out her unhappiness on tourists.

We can’t wait to come back

One of the overall best properties I’ve ever rented. House was well-kept, we loved the outdoor shower, perfect proximity to all things in Hanalei, 5 minute walk to the beach. We were also able to easily to get the Kalalau trail for some of the best hiking ever. A great place for someone looking for a quiet evening reading and a long day in the sun/hiking/surfing. The town is quaint and shuts down around 8pm. Walls and windows are thin and best to keep noise to a minimum after dark. No problem for us!

A little slice of heaven in Hanalei

We stayed at this charming Hanalei house for 8 days. It was perfect for our family of 4. Easy walk to beach and town. Loved its simple Hawaiian decor-also enjoyed the lanai to hang out on AND outdoor showers. It’s equipped w beach towels and chairs. And the landscaping around the house is quite pretty. I would definitely stay here again.

Great place

The property managers were great, there was a small issue with the washing machine and they provided a workaround until it could be fixed. The house itself was very nice and we really enjoyed it. There's very little air conditioning and Hanalei and if you happen to go when it's hot be prepared to just enjoy the breeze and the indoor fans. The house is located very close to Hanalei Bay which was great for swimming when we were there in mid-september, is also very close to Hanalei town which has some great restaurants and shops.

Glorious Bungalow with Garden and Mountain View

We loved staying on this quiet street 5 minutes to the beach one way and Hanalei town the other. It felt like being in a real neighbourhood. The house had everything we needed. The BBQ was amazing, lots of towels, comfy beds, homey feel. We absolutely loved the pretty tropical garden full of flowers and geckos. The showers were great, one inside and one out. The louvred windows, fans and covered deck kept things nice and cool. Definitely recommend this place for a chill family holiday.
