Great place for a family vacation

Guest: Stu (Nelson BC)
Date of Stay: 11/12/11 Review Submitted: 12/30/11

This is the place to be on Kauai .The location which is only a couple of minutes walk to Poipu beach is perfect for a family. We took our two daughters their husbands and our grand daughter on this trip and the house was perfect for our needs. The house is equipped with every thing you need for a fantastic holliday including toys etc for the beach. The owner Larry was very helpful and made sure we had every thing we needed.The property showed a pride of ownership and was very well maintained. We hope to be back in the not too distant future and would definately stay here again.

Perfect "home away from home"

Guest: Janese (Norman, OK)
Date of Stay: 09/17/11 Review Submitted: 09/30/11

Spent the week here with my family (8 of us) celebrating my 50th birthday. Larry called the house just shortly after we arrived to make sure we'd arrived safely and that everything was OK at the house, then called again just before we left to see how our week had gone. The house was every bit as nice as what is shown in the pictures. And what you don't see in the pictures is the beautiful yard. We spent a great deal of time on the back lanai enjoying the scenery and watching the birds. The beach was close and the location was great for taking day trips to various areas of the island. Poipu Shopping Village is very close (try Keoki's for lunch - the fish tacos and hula pie were awesome). There are also several shops, including Big Save for groceries, just a few minutes away in Koloa. Brennecke's is in walking distance and there's a small snack shop on the ground level which has really good breakfast burritos and some amazing guava turnovers! Overall it was an AMAZING week and we'd recommend this location to anyone considering a trip to Kauai.

The Place to Be on Kauai!!

Guest: Carolyn (Orange County, CA)
Date of Stay: 04/03/11 Review Submitted: 04/22/11

Beautiful Poipu Beach is the setting for this lovely well-maintained home. You're in paradise, but doing it your way which feels so much like home. Rather than a touristy hotel, you will be emersed in the local culture and the freedom to experience Kauai as the kama aina (native born) do. Everything you need will be there; just bring your bathing suits. The owner is very accomodating and a really nice guy. He helps in every way that he can. My family (nine of us) recently had a family reunion here, and our memories will last a lifetime. Poipu Beach, located on the south sunny side of the island, truly is the best beach on the island, not just for its beauty. There is something for everyone. Enjoy body surfing (the best body surfing beach on Kauai), board surfing, boogie boarding, babies' beach (for todlers), picnicking, watching the sea lions, swimming with the turtles, beach-combing, tide-pooling, If you are honeymooning, the "studio" is perfect for two. Plenty of room and tropical views out of each window. Families will want to rent the 3 bedroom house, or maybe both the house and the studio. And just a block away is the beach! Thank you Larry, for providing such a great place for our vacation!

Pictures don't do it justice.

Guest: lunabug (Alberta, Canada)
Date of Stay: 12/20/10 Review Submitted: 01/05/11

This house is bigger than the pictures make it look. We were a party of eight adults, a blended family and we had plenty of room. We have absolutely no complaints with the house. The owner, Larry stopped by a couple of times to make sure everything was OK. It really is close to the beach and we found Brenneckes beach (closest) to be our favourite. The Poipu area is a great base for an island stay and with the unsettled weather for the Christmas week we found the best place to find sun on the island was right at home at Hale Aka We had a truly amazing hike too on the sand cliffs to the east, past the Poipu Bay Golf course. 100% recommendation.

We loved our stay at Hale Aka. The location was perfect, the home was in very good condition and everything advertised as promised was available during our stay. The owner was easily accessible during the process and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We will certainly be returning to rent again.

Home in Paradise

Guest: tamilanfromia (IOWA CITY)
Date of Stay: 10/10/10 Review Submitted: 11/05/10

We rented the 3 bedroom/2 bath portion from a week in October 2010. The house was very comfortable and spacious. The kitchen was fully furnished with everything we needed. The patio was relaxing. The house has beach chairs, mats, umbrellas, toys for our son and even a grill. The best part was the proximity to Poipu beach. It took us 3 minutes at the most. We did snorkeling and saw turtles. The owner Larry is a gem. I asked him for restaurant suggestions and got a detailed multi page email. We tried most of them and loved it. Kauai is now my favorite HI island. When we go back we will stay at Hale Aka.

Great location!

Our family recently stayed a week at Hale Aka and had a wonderful, relaxing vacation. We walked five minutes down to the beaches every day-- the waves were perfect for boogie boards! The snorkeling was beautiful at Poipu Beach. The house was lovely; very clean and comfortable, and well-equipped for all our needs. The islanders were friendly and helpful. Shopping and dining are both very close by. It was a great week, would love to do it again!

Wow!! We and another family stayed at Hale Aka for the first two weeks of January 2010. What a way to ring in the new year! Too much fun to describe. The house is in a perfect location next to the best beaches, surf shop, deli, and bar/restaurant on the island. Even with three little girls (5, 4, and 2), it's all within walking distance!!! The house is fully equipped and everything about it is perfect and comfortable. We were right at home and none of us wanted to leave. During our stay my daughter turned 5 and my parents flew over to surprise her. They rented the studio and we had the entire house to ourselves. We loved every minute of it. Larry (the owner) is the best!!!!! He was great from start to finish. He was always happy to help and gave us great advice for our adventures. He and his house are gems. We hope to return year after year!!!!

Our group came to Hale Aka from all over the US (Arizona, Maryland, New York, Alaska and New Jersey) to celebrate a 50th Birthday. The October weather was perfect and the vacation home was even more perfect. The pictures do NOT do justice to Beautiful Hale Aka - it is Wonderful. The group of ten was more than comfortable - plenty of room to enjoy the fabulous accommodations. So close to the beach with a 2 minute walk, we enjoyed lots of snorkling and relaxing on the beach. Everything we needed was there, from kitchen to beach items. Easy to get anywhere on the island. Our group loved it so much, we have already booked our return for this 2010. If you are looking for an amazing vacation home, perfect beach, and beautiful sunsets, look no more!!
