  We traveled all over the island of Kauai and kept agreeing that our location at Sunset Cottage in Kilauea was the best by far. After seeing the crowds at Poipu and surrounding area, we were so thankful to have our quiet retreat up in Kilauea. The cottage is truly magnificent and there is really nothing about it one could not like. If you are looking for peace, tranquility and privacy, then there is no reason to search anywhere else. The cottage was spotlessly clean and had every amenity one could possibly need while traveling. Snorkel gear, beach towels, laundry facilities out back door, rain umbrellas, iron, hairdryer, beach chairs, movies, cds, tv, stereo...(thank you for providing the fun Blue Hawaii CD which we took along with us on every car trip and will forever hold that CD as our "soundtrack" to our week in Kauai). These extra amenities gave us the abiliy to travel light. The best part of our stay was waking up each morning to the amazing birdsong. What an alarm clock! I have never heard birds so pretty as the ones here. Snowflake the cat was a wonderful bonus to have on the property (she only stays on the front porch and never comes inside). The kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals at home, dishes, knives, pots, pans, cutlery. Catherine and her husband were wonderful hosts and such lovely, nice people. It's icing on the cake knowing that such a nice property is provided by such loving and caring people who really care about their guests' comfort. Even though they live onsite, in a neighboring house, I never felt a lack of privacy whatsoever. This place is ideal for privacy and "getting away from it all". I actually wish we could have spent more time just relaxing at the cottage, because it was so nice. But we kept very busy as Kauai beckons with beautiful beaches and hiking trails to explore. I highly recommend this cottage, and if i ever return to Kauai know that I will certainly be staying here again.

  It simply doesn't get any better than Aloha Sunset Cottage: Total privacy and tranquility on seven acres of a gorgeous garden and majestic setting, the best North Shore location, and an absolutely charming, spotlessly-clean cottage with every single detail covered. The fully-equipped kitchen, spacious bedroom suite with great king-size bed and large bathroom, and exceptionally-tasteful furnishings make this accommodation truly extra special. There even is a choice of gear available for use at the many nearby magnificent beaches. This, our first stay at Sunset Cottage but only the most recent of many visits and stays in Kauai, definitely tops the list! Bruce, El Cerrito, California

  Owner response: Aloha Bruce, The family so enjoyed your company and hope you will both return soon to our island paradise. Mahalo for the fabulous review. We await your return.................... Mahalo a nui loa, Catherine and Allan Rietow

  We stayed at Aloha Sunset cottage for nine nights. From the moment we arrived we felt at home. The owner Catherine greeted us on arrival and was very helpful and welcoming. The cottage was simpley perfect and the surrounding gardens idyllic. Sunset cottage was well equiped and the owners have thought of everything you could want on holiday including deck chairs for the beach, snorkels, boogie boards beach mats and towels to name but a few. We were very impressed with the attention to detail, It was spotlessly clean and we wanted for nothing. Our stay coincided with thanks giving celebrations. The owners Catherie and Alan invited us to thanks giving dinner with their friends and family. We had a fantastic night and were overwhelmed by their hospitality and generosity. We would have no hesitation in recommending this cottage. (Alan & Catherine if you read this, thanks again for making our holiday perfect)

  We found the cottage clean, on a gorgeous property with inspiring views of some of Kauai's mountains and within minutes of beaches, shops, stores, restaurants, etc. If you're looking for slick hotel-style accommodations and privacy isn't a priority, then this place isn't for you. The well-stocked cottage was truly our home away from home, with privacy and comfort. Catherine was so helpful and gracious answering questions about Kauai. We eagerly look forward to returning -- the sooner, the better.

  Catherine and Allen have created a paradise on Paradise. The Sunset Cottage provided us with authentic, un-corporatized home-style graciousness. It was truly a home away from home. The cottage is clean and well-maintained, and its north shore location is ideal. I am going to recommend this cottage to everyone I know who has an interest in going to Kauai. The visit to Kauai and the stay at the Sunset Cottage will supply us with precious memories and the dream to return soon.

  The Kauai Sunset House is a small, lovely furnished and conveniently equipped cottage, located at the center of a lush tropical garden, which makes it the prefect getaway for a romantic stay on the beautiful island of Kauai. We spent one week of our honeymoon in this lovely cottage where we were completely surrounded by the beauty of the island’s lush flora and fauna. This helped us to better understand why Kauai is called the ‘Garden Island’. The Sunset House is conveniently located close to the small town of Kilauea on the north shore of Kauai. Some of the nicest beaches of the island, many treasuries of Kauai’s almost untouched nature as well as a couple of picturesque towns are just a few minutes away from the cottage. Our hosts welcomed us very warmly and gave us numerous pieces of advice about the beautiful Garden Island. We daily enjoyed the fruits of the property’s garden as well as the always very friendly conversations with our hosts. We would like to thank them for sharing this wonderful place in the paradise of Kauai.

  The real Kauai is not to be found at some over-priced and pretentious resort. My wife and I have traveled to Kauai numerous time. One needs to spend time with the locals if one wants to engage in intelligent conversation about the history and natural history of Kauai. Our hosts Catherine and Alan, as well as the other guests, were fun, open and interesting. Catherine and Alan were also exceptionally committed to service. Our cottage was immaculate and comfortable. Their advice about beaches and hikes informative. Morning coffee with the horses, flowers, fruit trees, trees and a book prior to a full day of snorkeling and hiking was wonderful and relaxing. We would stay their again without reservation.

  Thank you for such a wonderful little home to stay in during our vacation! The cottage is located in the perfect place on beautiful grounds, away from the hustle and bustle of towns...but close enough to access everything! Relaxing accommodations, and wonderful hosts made our visit to Kauai perfect! We had everything we needed, from beach towels and snorkeling gear, to a kitchen and fresh fruit off the trees on the property! We loved it!!!
