Hanalei Moon Beach Cottage
- Minimum stay:3 nights
- Internet:Yes
- Pets allowed:No
- Wheel chair accessible:No
Our Beachfront Home here in the middle of Hanalei Bay can be yours! Hanalei Moon Beach Cottage is named after the famous Hawaiian song "Hanalei Moon," which extols the extreme beauty and romance of the Hanalei Valley under the tropical night sky. The cottage is located on the quiet end of town on Weke Road, right on the beach, on 1/3 acre within walking distance of all the restaurants, shops and galleries. Waterfalls are the back drop for our little beach house. A complete cozy kitchen where you can whip up fabulous Food from the Hanalei Fish Market, the Farmer's Market, or just make snack to go and eat out every night in one of the great local restaurants. Lime tree just outside your bedroom windows. King size bed and lights for reading at night. It has a seperate bathroom entrance. We have a little library for your use and quite a few great books on Kauai and Hawaii in general. A twin size pune'e in the central room can accomadate another guest and there is a folding futon for the way youger set. We have a little telescope in the living room so that you can better see boats, whales, and dolphins ply the Bay by day and enjoy the moon and stars at night. If you're lucky, you may see a moon bow, something I have only seen in Hanalei. It will happen on a night when there are stars, moon and clouds together. If the clouds are sailing by on the gentle trade winds and shedding some tears, the rain will be illuminated by the moon shining from the cloudless part of the sky. Talk about breathtaking! Depending on the brightness of the moon, you may discern the colors of the rainbow. Snorkeling, swimming, diving, paddling, hiking, golfing and a health club are all as close as your front yard, to as far as a 10 minute drive away. Walk across your front yard and look to the left; you're likely to see no one for a mile. Look to the right and you'll probably see surfers, volley ball players and beach-goers, with the Hanalei Pier at the far end of the Bay in the background.

This is a magical location. I rented this property to celebrate my 50th birthday and was completely charmed. the VRBO description was acurate. The photos on the website represented the house very well. The property was clean on arrival and the owner/manager was very helpful. Excellent location and property.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway.

The house is better than what you see here. It is amazing to walk in to the living room and to be surrounded by the beauty that is Hanalei. Walk from the house to the water in a minute, turn around to look back at the house, and see the waterfalls. The bed is comfortable, the kitchen well stocked, a good selection of TV stations, close to town, the outdoor shower is perfect, it is an easy drive to all the east and north shore sites, and the list of outstanding features goes on. I wish I was there right now. The owners are super easy to work with.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, romantic getaway.

To put this review in perspecitve, this is our 7th trip to Kauai, 5th stay at the north shore, and 3rd time we spent a week in Hanalei. We were married at Princeville overlooking Hanalei 13 years ago, so, other words, this was not our first "rodeo" in Kaui or Hanalei.. Here's my simple review. This place is the PERFECT beach house for a couple. I can't imagine ever staying anywhere else in Hanalei. The house (cottage) is in great condition, the grounds are immaculate, and there's even an outdoor shower with hot water! The north end of the beach has no crowds, and it's so quiet at night you can hear the foam crackle and pop after the waves break. The views of the bay and Princeville are spectacular, and I regularly found myself watching big wave surfers work the reef via the cottage telescope. When we had to jump online, the wireless and cell phone coverage was great. Mahalo to Suzanne, with major THANKS to her husband!Recommended for: Romantic getaway.
Owner response: Mahalo! We are so glad you enjoyed our beach house and appreciate your comments as seasoned Kauai vacationers. I enjoyed meeting you both. We look forward to your return again! And yes, Joe is pretty darned handy!

My wife and I stayed at the Moon Beach Cottage this spring to celebrate our 10th anniversary. It was absolutely perfect. We had wonderful breakfasts each morning on the Lanai, listening to the sound of the waves and watching them crash. We also enjoyed walking the beach, the short drive to the other North-side beaches, and taking walks into town for dinner. A wonderful, charming little cottage.Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, age 55+, romantic getaway, families with young children.

We had a delightful week-long visit at Hanalei Moon Cottage. Perfect for a family of three. We only wish we could have stayed longer! Not sure if it was the beds or the nightly rain, but we've never slept better away from home. My only suggestion for families with children who don't like sleeping under covers is to hang a mosquito net over the twin bed. We'll definitely be back!

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.Recommended for: Sightseeing, age 55+, romantic getaway.

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.Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, age 55+, romantic getaway.
Owner response: A new can opener and coffee grinder are now in the house.

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.Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, tourists without a car, age 55+, romantic getaway, girls getaway.
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: Age 55+, romantic getaway, families with young children.
