This home is VERY special!! We spent a week there with our adult children and grandchildren to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary. Most of our awake time was spent on the fabulous lanai. The house is immaculate and well stocked. The bed linens are first class. I can't say enough good things about this house and we have rented the world over. The location is perfect and Hanalei is a laid-back place. We all wish we were back there! Thanks for such a wonderful vacation place!!!

We loved the location, cleanliness, amenities, and everything else about this vacation. We couldn't have picked a better home to stay in for our family. We stayed at this house with our adult children. The space was perfect for us to have alone time as well as together time. The short one minute walk to the beach was perfect. The beach is one of the most beautiful we've seen. The bikes were in mint condition and were used almost every day for the 5 minute ride to town. While in town we tried several restaurants with Kalypso being our favorite. Try the coconut shrimp - out of this world! The little malt shop was fabulous as well. We made use of the boogie boards, surf boards, and beach chairs as well. It was perfect to have a way to cart everything with us in one trip. Thanks for thinking of the cart. The kitchen was clean and well stocked. The whole house was spotless! The neighborhood was quiet and family oriented. We had some very peaceful evenings on the deck. The owners guidebook was very helpful to find everything we needed. We can't wait to go again! We absolutely recommend this property.

We forgot to write in the guest book, but we wanted to tell you that we found Kauai very special and your house a great place to discover it. So comfortable and stocked with all the necessary items to make one feel at home. Nice decor and quality funishings also. We used your beach chairs and wagon ever day and enjoyed riding the bicycles too. Perfect for all ages, 87 to a 3 year old.

This is sick! I knew you remodeled a bit, but this is awesome. perfect for kids, great sound system, love the view of the surf through the custom manicured bush gap! Slept like a baby in the new master bed. Enjoying th sunrise on the porch and getting ready to go check out the bikes, boards, you name it, this is a lot more than I had expected.

Terrific home

We stayed in this home for two weeks with good family friends. Each family had two young children. The house was incredibly well equipped for the kids as well as the adults. We used all of the toys and especially appreciated the boogie boards, wagon (to take toys and kids to the beach) and bikes. The home is beautiful and modern with a very lovely large covered lanai for outdoor dinners. It is literally steps from the beach but located off of the busy street (quiet and great for kids). It is also a very easy walk into town. I highly recommend this home and look forward to coming back next year.

Great Family House with Tons of Toys

We had a great two weeks at this house. The walk to the beach was easy, especially with the super sized, fat-tire wagon for all the beach chairs and toys provided at the house. The second floor covered deck is especially nice and relatively private. There's a view of the bay from the kitchen so you can check out the waves before heading to the beach. The house is stocked with lots of 3 years old and under amenities which are helpful if you're in that part of life. And it's clean, clean, clean with modern appliances and conveniences. The owners are friendly and accommodating. Overall a terrific family vacation destination.

GREAT FAMILY HOME! This home was so perfect for our trip. We have two small children and we traveled with another family with one child. This house came completely equipped with everything a family needs. Additionally, the location is amazing. We were 1 block from the beach (a 2 min walk). The house came with a wagon that enabled us to bring all of the chairs, beach toys, surf boards and coolers we would need for the day. We were so pleased with all of the wonderful amenities this house provided. We will definitely stay here again and recommend it to all of our friends. Thank you!

We just got back from staying in this wonderful home for a week. The location was great, we could walk to the beach, restaurants, shops, and river activities easily. The town of Hanalei was friendly and quaint, with something to offer for everyone in our group of 9. Very close to other sites, such as the beaches off Princeville and NaPali Coast. The home had lovely views of the ocean and mountainside, we even spotted a waterfall from the dining table after a rain, and a rainbow one evening. There amenities were great, we took advantage of the beach cart, sand toys, snorkeling and surfing gear, and household items such as kitchen supplies and toys. The outdoor shower was a big bonus as well. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to others.

Photos and words do not describe in enough detail how great this house is. We had a last minute detour from Cabo, and couldn't have been happier. Quiet yet close to a great beach, lots of toys for the kids, and a great wagon to make it easier to carry everything! We look forward to a return trip in the future!!!
