Accommodations: Cottage, Studio, 1 Bath (Sleeps 2)
Experience the incredible beauty of the north shore at the Garden Cottage in Haena, Kauai, located in the heart of the most beautiful 10 miles of the island. We are close to Tunnels Beach, and set between 2 of the top 5 rated beaches on the islands. Kepuhi beach is 50 yards down the driveway; directly behind is lush jungle hillside, the border to 1000's of acres of private nature conservancy land. All tucked into a quiet, secluded, tree lined cul-de-sac.
The private, cozy cottage interior features a high open-beam ceiling, wood floors, and tropical décor, along with cooking facilities. Outside is a private shower with a spectacular view of the jungle, private deck, barbecue, tiki torches to enjoy the evening, and all the style of old Hawaii.
If you are seeking a Honeymoon hideaway or romantic getaway...The Garden Cottage honeymoon special includes complementary champagne and chocolate. Relax to the soothing sound of rolling surf, enjoy a bonfire on your private beach, and just minutes away is Hanalei with restaurants, dancing and entertainment. You can walk the beach the entire final 2 miles to Ke’e, where the road ends and the famous Napali coast begins. Or you can walk the beach just 300 yards to the Hanalei Colony Resort, for the only (award winning) restaurant and coffee house on this part of the island. Or just take our beach chairs and walk the few steps to the beach out front!

we came for our honeymoon and I think we explored the entire island! Beautiful place! Rented scooters in Lihue and explored the waterfalls, fun, fun! We did the Na Pali tour off the North coast, it was great. Saw turtles and dolphins. Also ziplines in Princeville were fantastic! Did ATV tour and it was O.K. and not worth the money. Overall great time, cute cottage and got used to the roosters. Liked the outdoor shower but ready for a long bath and thank you so much! Sarah & Adam Huddart, Bend Or

We loved our stay here at the Garden Cottage! Absolutely beautiful-especially loved the outdoor shower! Lots of rain but the waterfalls coming down the mountains as a result were spectacular. Hiking the Kalalau Trail, kayaking on the Hanalei river were fantastic. Delicious breakfast at Wake Up Cafe (macadamia nut cinnamon rolls are to die for), fantastic dinner at Kalypso, drinks and great live music at Tahiti Nui. Thanks for all the special touches in the cottage-perfect for us! We're off to the South coast for the next couple of days, then back to NC. This island is beyond words, our first trip and definitely not our last. Thanks for everything. Holly Hallman & Mark Nippua, Salem & Raleigh, NC

We stayed in the Garden Cottage for 2 weeks of our 6 week stay on Kauai. We thought the first two weeks on the Wailua River would be hard to beat but the Garden Cottage was every bit as enjoyable in different ways. Now we regret having to move on to our next place in a condo near Kapa'a. Patricia is a character and we greatly enjoyed visiting with her & getting her "locals" perspective on Hawaii living. We wondered about the outdoor shower when we first arrived but now we wish we could take it all with us. Thanks so much for a great 2 weeks. Diane & Gary Rovig Laramie, WY

The perfect place to spend our delayed honeymoon! We loved the Beach Cottage, it had all the amenities we needed and all of the privacy and beauty we wanted. Our favorite things to do while staying here were to snorkel at Tunnels Beach, hike the Napali Coast and grill our dinner every night! Patricia was a huge resource to us! We saw the best rainbow while watching the sunset at end of the road or Ke'e Beach. We loved taking the chairs across the street to watch the waves roll in and look at the stars. We loved Secret Beach, Queen's Bath, and the Lighthouse. We saw spinner dolphins at the lighthouse, sea turtles and stingrays at tunnels and a monk seal at Kapa. We do not recommend Limahuli Garden. We saw much better foliage on the trail. We hiked to the arboretum, Napali Coast and sleeping Giant. The hike to the falls along the coast was excellent but hard and long. The hikes in the arboretum are really pretty and easy. We loved our time here and the Garden Cottage was just perfect for us. We hope to return someday!

Listening to the crickets chirp and the sound of ocean waves crashing just yonder is a great way to conclude our honeymoon at your lovely Garden Cottage. Our stay was definitely too short (though we won't miss the mosquitoes). You have a wonderful relaxing haven here hidden amongst jewels of beaches and hikes. the four miles to Hanakaplai Falls is well worth the trip and snorkeling at Ke'e and Tunnels was fantastic. Go to Queen's Bath if you want to spend hours watching sea turtles. thanks to Doug and Beverly for welcoming us to their home and paradise. We will be sure to return in the future.

Thank you for a peaceful and inviting place! Teak Room and Garden Cottage were great. BBQing and having beverages in the evening after long days being active was a real treat. We felt like we were all by ourselves. Thanks again. We will be back! P.S. If you can kayak the Napali DO IT! Was the best part of our trip so far.. dolphins, turtle, waterfalls, AWESOME!!

This has been all we could ask for in a cozy, "quiet" and private cottage. The week passed so quickly but gave us time to go to the beach everyday to swim, snorkel and just be in the sun. There is a familiarity to this place that welcomed us and offered a peace that envelops a person. The crow of the roosters, cooing doves and the bird songs are such a comforting way to wake up. Patricia is a jewel. Thank you. P.S. We will be back.
