The setting and views of the ocean have to be the best on Kauai!! With only a few steps to the water this home is a true tropical paradise.Nick the owner was very informative and has a great attitude and has thought of every thing you will need.I would recommend this property to anyone who can get here!! We hiked the trails at the end of the road the the views are spectacular. We saw countless whales , sea turtules , and Dolphins. The snorkiling was amazeing. You can not go wrong renting this home.

The house is great! The layout of the house works perfectly as you can lie in bed and view the ocean. The sound of the waves will put you to sleep every night. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare just about anything you can think of. The location is pretty close to the end of the road, which is always nice. The house has many wonderful aspects, and a few negative ones. On the down side, we had read reviews prior to going about the house being located right next to the road and the noise from the traffic could be a problem at times. I couldn’t agree with this more. In the evening and throughout the night, it is not too big of a factor as there isn't much traffic down there during those times. Early in the morning is a different story. Every morning we were there we woke to the sound of vehicles zooming just outside the bedroom windows. Of course we could have closed the windows, but with the absence of A/C that would leave you in a rather "sticky" situation. Another down side is the beach the house is located on. The beach is pretty, but not swimmable even during the calm months of summer. My final issue with the Love Shack is that we stayed there in the middle of June and I am still waiting on my security deposit to be returned, near the end of October. This is not a huge issue but more of an annoyance.

Just returned and miss it already. I did extensive research prior to planning and although a little pricey for our budget, we were not disappointed. The views from the house are captivating and the sound of the ocean waves lulls one gently to sleep at night. It was simply beautiful. We grilled fresh fish every night and were afforded the comforts of home with a fully outfitted kitchen. The tub was amazing and I indulged with several long soaks as I took in a sweeping panoramic ocean view. The ocean breeze keeps the place airy and cooler than inland which was appreciated (it was in the upper 80's), however a time or two I wished for air conditioning, at least in the bedroom. Also to be fair, the road is very busy during the day but it wasn't deal-breaking. It's not bothersome if one is on the beach or out doing activities. At night, it's totally serene. We are already planning our next trip and hope to make this wonderful little gem a regular yearly vacation spot.

The Love Shack is as described in the listing. It was the perfect location for us & we thoroughly enjoyed our stay there in August. Would have rated it an Excellent, but it is now December & we still have not received our deposit back even though we've been assured that we would.
Owner response:Security Deposit was refunded.

This was a great vacation, our second anniversary to be exact an we couldn't have picked a more pristine spot. The privacy is fantastic. The kitchen is well equipped for standard cooking fare. Be prepared, the groceries are quite pricey. We were told by the Enterprise (who were unbelievably polite, helpful and reasonably priced) that the Safeway in Lihue was the cheapest grocery. The bed is a comfortable king and a little soft for my wife's liking but I loved it, slept like a rock. The clawfoot bathtub was a popular attraction. My wife used it to do her evening reading, whereas, I just like to turn the lights out and listen to the ocean and watch the waves by moonlight. Pretty cool. This place has "all natural" A/C with vented windows on the coast side breezing through to the road side. That's right, you are right off the only road but truthfully, you're pretty out there that the thru traffic is pretty light. After you take in the view, you don't pay the road noise much mind. Pay attention to what time of year you are booking your stay. This is important for one reason only as far as I can see. There is a killer reef just outside the Love Shack and would be great snorkeling in the summer time. We went in November and the currents and surf that time of year on the north end of the island make swimming quite hazardous. Easy fix - head down to the Haena State park at the beach there. They have a nice protected cove with plenty of fish to check out. We tried to schedule some snorkeling trips at Napali coast and Poipu but they kept canceling due to the currents. We A few MUSTs while you are there. 22 degrees North is a 45 minute drive to Lihue and is located on the Kilohana Plantation. They grow everything there, except for the fish which is picked up locally each day. Awesome food and reasonable price. Get two bags of donuts for dessert. One for on the way home and the second to eat with coffee the next morning in bed. The atmosphere is perfect outdoor patio dining with small tiki torches and fire pits for ambiance. Great service.. so good that we went back the next night for dinner again. Blue Hawaiian Helicopter tours are awesome - worth every penny. The only negative thing was minor ant problem. Trash must be taken outside and NO crumbs or anything can be left out or ants WILL take over the kitchen. We sprayed for ants at every meal. Small price to pay for an otherwise perfect getaway. Enjoy!! We'll be back.

Had a great time at the Love Shack. Everything is exactly as pictured on the website - down to the furniture and views. We visited at the end of September and spent most of our visit watching the waves and listening to crashing surf. The only downside was proximity to the road, but those sounds were generally drowned out by the surf. The location is VERY close to the end of the road with great beaches for snorkeling and close to hiking. It's about a 10 minute drive to restaurants, but we found the kitchen useful for most meals. We really enjoyed our stay.

The love shack is perfect!! We loved the location right on the beach, it was breezy and beautiful. The beach was quiet and it felt like having our own private wonderland. The kitchen was well equipped and the owner was awesome and totally helpful. The house was immaculate and so comfortable!! Ive heard many horror stories about critter problems in Hawaii but luckily, the only critter we saw at the house was a friendly gecko. We felt so lucky every time we came home to the love shack!! I highly, highly recommend this property for people who want a low key romantic getaway.
