  We certainly appreciated the use of your lovely home in Kauai. We plan a yearly trip with my sister and her family, and this one was our best yet. The comfort and convenience of Hale Kipa made our trip very special. The kids loved Hideaways Beach and the pool. The parents loved the beauty and ambience of Kauai and Princeville in particular. Thanks for making this a trip of a lifetime.

  We rented this house for our first trip to Kauai. The house is awesome, handsomely appointed and beautiful. With three master bedrooms down and a very large living/kitchen/dining area up with two beautiful patios (2nd floor) and 360 Degree views it was stunning. I enjoyed sitting on thepatios and listening to / feeding the birds. One one patio we could look at the Mountains and on the other the golf course. Beautiful, exceptionally quiet community, we played Tennis daily and walked to some exceptional beaches. When we wanted to we were able to drive out for ATV'ing, Luau, Coffee Plantation visit, Waimila (spelling) Canyon (just like the Grand Canyon - but Green) Chocolate plantation, shopping, Poipu Beach, spouting Horn, Hanalei Bay - who doesn't want to be on the road to Hanalei?! From one side of the island to the other was maybe 50 miles. We stayed busy and even when it rained, it was a pleasant rain. Once we got used to the humidity the cool ocean breezes were awesome. Queen's Bath was spectacular. The house had a nice television, movies and more for evening entertainment when we wound down. I could never say enough about this house, we met a lady two doors down who stayed in it 15 years ago and as a result bought a house there. Everyone on the island was friendly. Superb. On a scale of 1-10 it is a 10!

  This home exceeded our expectations for our family of seven (3 generations). The open area around the house gave excellent views from the two decks. One looked out over the neighborhood, the tennis court and pool, and the other overlooked the golf course. Having the doors open kept the house comfy with the cool winds blowing through. The entire floor is mostly windows. The kitchen has everything that you could need--and even more! The rice cooker we found was in use the whole week. Pantry is well-stocked, depending on the previous occupants, but we were pleasantly surprised with the interesting things we found. The lower level is the bedroom area and each is private with its own bathroom and outdoor lanai. The community pool and tennis court are a definite added benefit. And the garage holds, beside the laundry area, many boogie boards, chairs, aqua socks, beach toys, tennis racquets, etc. Also, there you will find three shelves of paperbacks, besides the bookcase in the entry way with three more shelves of hardback books--all the popular ones. This house was spic and span clean and we would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a vacation home on the north shore of Kauai.

  I went with a group of 7 individuals and stayed at Hank's place in Priceville, Kauai over the weekend of November 11th and it was amazing. Clean, beautiful place, amazing location on the north side of Kauai - and fully stocked of anything you might need to make meals at the place - saving you alot of money and getting quality time with the people you are traveling with. I will definately contact Hank the next time I come to Hawaii, either with a group or just with my husband. Thanks Hank for everything for a memorable trip on the island of Kauai.

  Our family had an outstanding two week vacation at this perfectly situated home in our favorite Kauai location - Princeville. Every possible amenity was provided by our hosts - excellent references for local eateries, beaches, and recreation. There was something for every one - and we had a 16 month old to a 60 year old! A kitchen that had everything we needed, boogie boards/snorkeling equipment, tennis rackets, even beach towels! The property is in excellent condition - very clean and inviting. We are planning a return trip in the future. The owner was prompt with his communication and a pleasure to do business with. The price was extremely fair for the area - we felt like we got a real bargain. Left us with plenty of money for the daily shave ices the kids insisted on! Highly recommend this property.

  This home was so perfect for a larger group. We had 8 people (all adults) in our party, and this house plan worked out great. It truly is one of those homes that the pictures do not capture the true setting. We loved having the two deck areas to have our morning coffee, one looking out over the golf course and the other looking out to the mountains, so peaceful! The rooms were so spacious and great for everyone to relax after busy days of exploring Kauai. The kitchen in this home is huge. We fixed dinner a couple nights and we had so much room. Very well stocked kitchen, had everything you could possibly need. We stayed in a condo the last time we were in Kauai and we did not have all the extras that this home provided, such as coolers, chairs, boogie boards, snorkeling equipment, beach towels etc... and then to be able to come back to the house and hose off all the sand etc.. outside on the driveway was so nice. We loved everything about our stay at this home, we would definitely book again in the future. It also is in a very nice location and neighborhood. You will find the home to be very clean and well maintained. Easy access to beaches, golf course and walking/running paths. I would highly recommend this home. We hope to return again soon! Thank-you! The Speer's

  Great arrangement. Plenty of room for 5 adults and a one-year-old. Lots to do close by. House has plenty of vacationer amenities, ie, foot wear for beach, towels, snorkel gear, golf gear (except clubs), pantry is well stocked. Internet through wireless and local phone ability. House was neat and clean for our arrival. Anything we needed, owner took care of. I recommend it highly. Easy walk to the beach at St Regis or viewing of Queen's Bath. Right on the 6th hole of Makai GC (we didn't play). Need a car to get to restaurants, shopping, other beaches if you want.

  As you may be reading, the history of this fine place is many a happy renter. The layout is superb for reading, mingling, cooking, or even seeking some alone time. As a cook, I loved having the room and ability to cook, create, and serve while being in the middle of everbody else's action. You will enjoy.
