Year Purchased: 2004
Why the Owner Chose Hanalei Bay Villas
We chose the North Shore of Kaua'i because of its' great climate and its' access to the water. When we first came to Hawai'i, it was to coach Water Polo teams entered in tournaments on O'ahu. Years later the purpose was to participate in the Ironman Triathlon in Kona. We have swam, snorkeled, paddled, body surfed, lifeguarded, taught and coached swimmers of all ages for decades. For us, now, the North Shore of Kaua'i was the best possible spot for us to maintain our connection with the water.
We chose our home in the Hanalei Bay Villas because of the views (mountain, jungle and sea) and because of its' privacy and serenity. It has a Hawaiian sense of place. To preserve this place is our kuleana (responsibility). We truly enjoy sharing this makana (gift) of aloha with our guests. Many of them describe its' mystical qualities of the place, its' healing power, spiritual sense and meditative tranquility. It is definitely a place where one remain in the moment. And yet, be in the water within a short walk.
The Unique Benefits at this House
We enjoy being at home in Kaua'i. The simple routines of the day, like going to the market, are a pleasure, enhanced by the climate and the surrounding beauty. We also enjoy exploring everything else the Island has to offer. In September we had the opportunity to paddle the Napali Coast, with Kayaks Kaua'i out of Hanalei. The trip took all day, including the shuttle ride back from Polihale and was a great adventure. From one extreme to the other, for us it is all good!
The beach generally known as Hideaways is a few yards to the West. Kenomene offers (in our opinion) some of the best snorkeling in all of Hawai'i. You can check the conditions for clarity and safety (
You can drive, walk (when the tide is low) or swim to this spot adjacent to the Hanalei Pier. Two more miles of beautiful beach are two the west. It is all great for sunning, jogging and swimming (su

Our granddaughter's favorite and certainly one of ours. Secret Beach is on the other side of the point to the east. This place has much more to offer (body surfing and swimming) and will be uncrowded
Owner's Map of Hanalei Bay Villas
Our aloha for all things Hawaiian began as we listened to the stories of our kapuna (elders). They told us of their trips to Hawai'i and the beauty the aina (land). They described the sweeping views, mauka (mountain) and makai (sea), lush tropical vegetation and the warm, gentle climate. On our own first trip to the islands in 1969, we found all that and much more. We found even greater beauty in the people of Hawai'i. As the opportunities came to connect with them, their culture, mele (song) and hula (dance), we were led to discover the true meaning of Aloha.

An amazing and beautiful hideaway tree house retreat!

Review Submitted: 12/26/11
We stayed in this beautiful two-story villa for a week and could not have been happier. The villa is centrally located within the beautiful Princeville golf course area yet it feels a million miles away from anything - think Swiss Family Robinson treehouse. The place is situated so there are only neighbors to one side and nothing but huge trees and an amazing ocean/bay view right out the living room. The place was exceptionally decorated and had everything we needed - from boogie boards to umbrellas to coolers, etc. Hanalei Bay is just minutes away with everything you could need as well the convenience of the Princeville shopping center up on the corner. There's an amazing beach called Hideaway Beach right across the street too and about as close as you can come to feeling on a deserted island. The owner Joe was so easy and pleasant to deal with. We would go back in a heartbeat! LOVED IT!!!

Thank you for opening your beautiful home to us. This is as close to Heaven as you can get! What a wonderful home, the home was spotless, beautifully decorated with a hawaiian theme, the view as you walked in stunning and the home had every possible amenity. From start to finish, the owners were wonderful to work with and supplied us with endless recommendations from the best beaches for snorkeling, to a list of great hikes and restaurants. This entire experience from start to finish was exeptional. We will definitely recommend this home and we will definitely return again. Mahalo!
Owner response:Martine and her family took great advantage of the beauty and adventures that the North Shore of Kaua?i has to offer, including hiking to the waterfalls on the Kalalau trail on the Napali Coast. We are happy to have helped guide them along the way.

My husband, 18 yr old son and I spent 2 wonderful weeks at this gorgeous villa. It was in a great location and had everything that we needed. There's a nice small lookout across the street to view sunsets. The beach located nearby also had the best snorkeling on the island. We've done alot of traveling, but this was our favorite place so far. Look forward to the day that we can return.
Owner response:We enjoy sharing the aloha of Haleakamanu with our guests and truly appreciate their finding the peace and beauty of this Hawaiian place. We agree with Robert, Hideaways Beach (aka Kenomene Beach) is the best spot for snorkeling and ditto on the sunsets. Ke aloha wale, ka mahalo wale, Joe and Linda
