Map & Owner's Profile
Year Purchased: 1990
Why the Owner Chose Kalaheo
Neil bought the land because he loved it. While it has a rural feel, is beautiful, and is quiet (off a cul de sac), it is very central and 'civilization' is but a few minutes drive. Also, being in the hills it is lush and cooler,...the latter in summer...is an absolute blessing!
The Unique Benefits at this Cabin
Ability to enjoy an 'authentic' Kauaian experience. Owner built and he lives on the property and will gladly talk story and share his ideas on must sees and do's. Surrounded by trees and abundant bird life...and yet within ten minutes you can be on the popular beaches of sunny Poipu.
Owner's Map of Kalaheo
Neil was born in Wales and has lived on Kauai since 1980. He designed and built Kauaitreehouses in various stages beginning in the early 90's. Neil met Sharon, who was born in South Africa in December 2003. Now married - they relish the opportunity to share this unique slice of the beautiful island of Kauai - a place which is such an incredible delight and privilege to call home.

What an absolute Jem of a place!

This past January found us staying at this quaint little place for 3 nights, and boy do we wish we stayed longer! The house is warm and inviting and has a fabulous outdoor shower that was just the ticket to the Aloha Experience. (Seriously- being outside with a hot shower and stargazing is something nobody should miss out on!) The place is completely stocked for staying there; it has a full size fridge (which is nice) with plenty of cooking supplies to shower towels. Even the furniture was lovely, gave it that nice hawaiian island feeling. Crickets gently put you to sleep at night and waking up to birds singing away in the treetops… What a great little spot this place is! Neil is more than ready to help out with any questions/concerns you have (we had none, this place was easy!) He also is a great resource for local insider knowledge- make sure to ask his opinion on activities you are doing, he makes great suggestions. Great little coffee and breakfast place 5 minutes down the road, make sure to check it out. Overall it was an incredible experience staying there from the place to the people and if he hadn’t been booked we would have stayed longer (which is our biggest regret, make sure to book early!) When I come back there is no question about where I’m staying at! Thanks Neil and Sharon for sharing such a great place to all!

Our stay at this location was peaceful and delightful! The location was especially nice because it's just high enough on the hill to be a little cooler than the rest of the south shore. The photos and description were accurate, and the owners were helpful with recommendations on local activities.

Perfect start for our honeymoon!

The treehouse was absolutely magical. Our hearts were pounding with excitement as we drove up the hill and we were in awe of the beauty surrounding us. The treehouse was everything we could have ever dreamed of. We had some amazing moments, eating breakfast on the lanai, amongst the trees and watching them sway as the trade winds cooled us off. There is nothing like taking a warm shower as you enjoy the view of the glowing clouds from the sunset behind the lush trees. You were excited to go to sleep b/c then you climbed into your cozy loft and lay quietly as you appreciated the stars above you and watched the trees humming with the rhythm of the wind. Some complain about the roosters but I loved every bit of it. It is a part of the culture of the island and if they weren't around it wouldn't be the same. The horses that live next door are friendly and it was such an added bonus to be able to visit them as we pleased. Neil and Sharon were wonderful hosts and made sure to welcome us in every way- leaving beach accessories, toiletries, cards, books and more. We had the most amazing stay and are so appreciative to have the special treehouse as a part of our memory.

It's been a month and I'm ready to come back! Kauai Tree House is magical, peaceful and so relaxing. We felt right at home as we walked through the door. Amazing outdoor shower!!! Everything we needed including boogie boards, clean. Neil made himself available to answer all questions and tell us about less traveled terrific spots on the island. I already have recommended this to our friends who hope to travel to Kauai. We enjoyed the "Trading Post" right off of 50 and "Jungle Girl" in Old Koloa town has great jewelry and a super friendly owner. Don't miss this place! Marla and Kevin Oakland, CA

We had such a wonderful time in your cottage from heaven. We wish we could have stayed longer, but lots to do and see on this trip! Today we hike the Kalaulau Trail and camp. Thanks again! If (scratch that) WHEN we come back, we will be looking to you for amazing beauty and comfort away from home. PS Went on Capt Andy's raft expedition yesterday, and was able to snorkel alongside two sea turtles - highly recommended!!

We can't thank you enough for sharing this beautiful space with us. This trip exceeded our expectations thanks to your graciousness and generosity. Kauai is truly a magical place and this cottage in the trees made us feel at home right away! We loved our neighbors in the pasture and the geckos chirping at night. Some highlights from our trip include eating at Koloa Fish market (thanks for the suggestion) hiking the Mahaulepu coast and the Kalaulau Trail and the Na Pali Coast...sky diving on new year's eve. Much mahalos for making us feel included. We will surely be back and tell everyone we know to stay here. Aloha!
