Hanalei Moon Beach Cottage is right on the ocean and is walking distance to Hanalei town with restaurants, stores and art galleries, not to mention snorkeling, swimming, and great surf. Our charming beach cottage with great views of the ocean and historic Hanalei pier now can be yours.
Hanalei Valley is home to the largest taro growing area in the state. The flooded fields look like irregularly shaped mirrors reflecting the blue sky and green mountains. A list of our favorite north shore beaches for snorkeling and surfing with directions is in the cottage.
We have a little telescope for viewing the goings on, boats, and aquatic life in the bay. A paperback library, including a Hawaiian section, are part of the cottage. A full kitchen on a small scale allows you to cook your own fresh island fish from the nearby fish market or any of your favorite foods.
Hanalei Bay, 2 sandy miles shaped in a horseshoe facing North, is embraced by the lush North Shore mountains, draped in tropical greens and laced with waterfalls. This is the backdrop to the turquoise and indigo blues of the bay. Whales, turtles and dolphins can be seen. Moon bows and rainbows abound.
Princeville with its 4 golf courses, restaurants, tennis, and health club is only a 5 minute drive. Polo is not much further. Some of the finest beaches in the United States and the world are as close as your front yard and as far away as 15 minutes!
One of the country's most spectacular trails, the Na Pali Coast Trail, is at the end of the road in Haena seven miles away. This trail takes you past points from which you can look up and down the coast line seeing surf and whales into the backs of tropical hanging valleys between points, each with it's own waterfall.
We invite you to share our island home with us. Float on your back while watching the waterfalls... enjoy the aloha our island has to offer. The best rates and the best location, why wait?

Wonderful stay at Hanalei Moon Cottage

We loved staying at the Hanalei Moon Beach Cottage. Eight years ago we stayed in the house next door. The place fit us perfectly and the view was amazing. So nice to be on the beach in less than one minute! Very clean and comfortable and quiet. We will be back next year for sure.

Perfect Place For Two

We usually vacation on the Big Island but decided to try something new. We spent 5 days at the Cottage January 16-21, 2012 and loved it and the area. Many friends recommended the Poipu area because the weather tends to be better but Hanalei Bay sounded more interesting and we're very glad we made this decision. After a giant, exciting thunderstorm night one, we had mostly beautiful weather. The Cottage is comfortable, just the right configuration for two people. Only wish was that the house was closer to the ocean but we could still hear the waves at night from our bedroom. There is a big lawn between the house and the sand. The kitchen had most everything we needed--except for a coffee grinder and a working can opener. The area is great, just a quick walk or drive to the "downtown" Hanalei Town. Great places to eat, nearby Princeville Foodland supermarket, farmers markets. Too rough to swim on our beach or at Ke'e but we did snorkel at Anini Beach which is not too far away. The booking process was efficient. We would definitely stay here again.

This is the second time my husband and I have stayed at Moon Beach Cottage and it was just as wonderful as we remembered. The location is absolutely amazing.....daily walks on the beach, evening BBQs on the lawn....absolutely the most relaxing vacations we have ever had. We cannot wait to return.
Owner response:We love having return guests. It is the highest compliment we get. Mahalo for writing in.

We had an amazing time on the island and this home was hard to leave! Amazing beach access just seriously steps away and an amazing view of the bay from the lanai and family room made the entire trip great, even in the rain. The house is very well equipt and private. People were friendly in the area and I think it will be hard to find anything better in Hanalei. I think this is the type of property that makes people move from the mainland. We hope to return soon!
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, age 55+, families with young children.

Hanalei Moon Beach Cottage filled all our needs! Thank you to everyone that works so hard to maintain and keep Hanalei Moon available as a beach front rental! All the beach toys, boards, books, welcome basket of goodies, were appreciated. This is a hidden gem and Terri & Suzanne did a fantastic job communicating with us. Mahalo from Santa Barbara
Owner response:Hurrah! Mahalo Kathryn. I will let everyone on this end know. Hope to see you in the future!

We stayed at HMBC in early November. The cottage is comfortable, well equipped, and the location couldn't be better. We loved just watching the ocean from the living room: the view is amazing! The property is well maintained, and close to shops, great restaurants, and the best beaches on Kauai. We would stay there again!
Owner response:Mahalo for sharing your experience with our future guests. We are so glad you enjoyed our beach house.We appreciate your extra effort in taking the time to post this.

We had a magical vacation in your beach rental and are most appreciative of the upgrades since our last visit. The artistic rearrangement and the additional art is wonderful and we were very happy to see the new fridge and stove. Everything was fantastic and we really liked the new doors and colors. You have made our dream get-away even more enjoyable. Mahalo for providing the BEST vacation experience we can imagine. We will book next year soon as we see things are filling up!

We can't put into words how absoluty wonderful the whole week was. My son and his family stayed at the adjoining property so we were able to visit with them every day. They are from Calif. and we're in Md. clear across the country so this was really special. We toured all around the island. We went to the coffee plantation,the farmers market saw Pierce Bronson yes thats right the 007. Not once but three times. We all miss the whole experience. Thanks for having such a wonderful,beautiful place for familys to stay.

Aloha! My husband and I spent a fabulous week at the Hanalei Moon Beach Cottage on our honeymoon, and we had the BEST TIME. The cottage was adorable--just the right size for us. And being able to walk to the beach in mere seconds was heavenly. We loved everything about Hanalei and we will definitely be back soon! Mahalo-- for everything. - torye & bob
