TAKE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO INDULGE IN THIS UNIQUE PROPERTY - MENTION THIS SPECIAL WHEN YOU WRITE

This property offers the ultimate in privacy on 3 acres of exquisitely landscaped, organically-maintained gardens filled with native Hawaiian plants. Nestled between Hanalei Bay and Wai'oli ("Singing Waters") River, the property has hundreds of feet of oceanfront and riverfront, as well as private paths through the garden along the beach and river. A privacy hedge is all that separates you from Hanalei Bay. Sitting on the private beach-viewing platform, you can watch tropical sunsets, the gentle waves of summer, or the large breakers and world-class surfing of winter. Step through the gate, and your feet sink into the sands of Hanalei Bay.

Situated at the end of a private road, which means no traffic passes by the house, you will be in a quiet paradise, yet all the amenities of Hanalei Town lie just blocks away. Generous screened lanais beckon you to relax and dine in Kauai's gentle breezes as you listen to the ocean at your doorstep. Surf fans: Wai'oli Beach Estate is steps away from the famous 'Pinetrees' area of the beach. For those with musical inclinations, there is a well-maintained, recently-restored 1964 Steinway upright piano in the house, available for your use by arrangement.

This is a place for relaxation and rejuvenation. Built by a sea captain in 1966, the simple, unpretentious house has been carefully updated to preserve the feel of simpler times. Unique furnishings, high-quality bedding and loads of extra personal touches add a sense of comfort and quiet luxury.

IF YOU HAVE A LARGE GROUP TO HOUSE, we have an adjacent rental house that sleeps 1-10 people, and we can help connect you to other rentals in the neighborhood - contact us for details.

PLEASE NOTE: Our on-site yet hidden-away caretaker can help arrange any extra services you desire - massage, meal preparation, yoga, pilates, surfing, fishing... tell us your desires.
A private ceramics studio nearby is available to guests for a small donation.
The very discrete gardening staff will be working on the premises for approximately 5 hours every Tuesday and parts of other days as needed.

Please email or phone us with your inquiries - the calendar may not reflect recent changes.

Why the Owner Chose Hanalei

Having camped and stayed all over the island for many years, I came to love Hanalei most of all. With its miles of white sand beaches and ever-changing seas and skies, it captured my heart like no place else. When this property became available, I knew it was the perfect combination of peace and space yet only a short bike ride from the amenities of Hanalei.

The Unique Benefits at this House

When you want to be "away from it all" yet have the conveniences of town just a short few blocks down the road, Wai'oli Beach Estate is the spot. The house is right on Hanalei Bay, but located down a private drive off the main road, which means there is no traffic passing the house. Its location at the less-frequented end of the beach, near Wai'oli Stream, means there are very few people on the beach outside the house. Hundreds of feet of oceanfront and riverfront offer views to water, mountain, waterfalls and, of course, the garden.

This property was my home for years, so it is set up to a higher standard than most vacation rentals - the furnishings, appliances and cookware are better quality than most.

Owner's Map of Hanalei

I visited Kauai for 12 years before buying this home, and I feel lucky to be able to care for this special, uniquely private spot. For the last 11 years, the gardens have been my project, and the 3 acres have been intensively landscaped with rare Hawaiian native plants. The house has been a vacation rental for just over two years, and many of the visitors have returned for second and third visits.

    • It's impossible to say enough great things about this fantastic property. My family and I have stayed here for a week at a time the past two years over Spring Break and we've already made plans to come back for a third year. In fact, the instant that we arrived the first time, I said out loud "We're coming back here!" It is a magically relaxing place. The immaculately maintained grounds feel like you're staying in your own private arboretum. Where else can you pick papayas off the trees and enjoy them after they've ripened? Walking through the wood gate through the palm trees onto the beach is like walking into heaven! Even though there aren't a lot of people passing by that particular stretch of beach in front of the house, after a while during our stay I found myself becoming overly protective of my privacy and mentally trying to shoo them away. There is an amazing sense of peace and privacy here, and I could literally feel the stress evaporate minute by minute during our stay. My wife and I actually stayed in the house back in 1989 when her father was house sitting. The new owner has made dramatic changes and improvements to both the house and property. I really feel at home here. During our stay, I was so happy to just soak in the views in every direction, and enjoy feeling the wind and rain and hearing the sounds of the birds...it's a rejuvenating place. It's not cheap and there are less expensive places to rent nearby. But none of them compare to this jewel of a spot. The interior is eclectic, some would say "funky" but I like eclectic and funky so it suited me. If you have younger children, you should be aware that there are several expressionistic pieces of art (specifically paintings that graphically illustrate anatomical parts of the human body) that might raise a few eyebrows (and questions). But open minded people shouldn't be offended. The house is wonderful, the lanai is a great spot, the grounds are green and lush and the beach is twenty steps away. It's so scenic and beautiful that the pictures of the property don't come close to doing it justice! Hanalei Bay is at your doorstep and when it rains (as it often does here) the mountains in the distance sprout dozens of waterfalls. Can you tell that I really like it here?

    • The property is beyond unique. You live in the gardens, enjoying the Wai' Oli Stream and Hanalei Bay from every part of the house and property. We have been going to Hanalei for over ten years, renting properties, and have lived there, if you want to truly experience the Hanalei there is no better way to do it!
