This is a great house in a great location in Haena. The amenities were as advertised: spacious, comfortable, and the kitchen and grill were exceptionally well-equipped. A great selection of games in case it rains. It's less than 60 seconds to walk to the beach, and we had a fantastic time swimming and snorkeling there. If you like a idyllic, lush, green, seaside retreat with a family of 4, you can't go wrong here.

The cottage is a beautiful jewel box, just steps from the most gorgeous beaches on the island. The home has just been completely re-done, and it is out of the pages of a magazine. Every detail from the spa-like bathroom, to the super comfortable beds, luxury linens and towels, to the high-end kitchen appliances, is brand new and beautiful. There are yoga mats, and beach chairs, and umbrellas - every detail is so thoughtful.The location is perfect - tucked in a peaceful neighborhood just 10 mins from Hanalei.We had a wonderful time and can't wait to go back - highly recommend!

Unique beach getaway on the north shore

Our group found the property to be even better than pictures showed. The layout was great, allowing everyone to gather around while cooking and eating. Short walk to exclusive access to tunnels was amazing. Property was immaculately clean and beds were very comfy. Highly recommend.

Sweet historic accommodations

This is a sweet, charming, throwback type of accommodation. It has a Hawaiian beach feel to it that is harder to come by as these properties are being demo'ed for McMansions etc. We would stay there again. It has easy access to an uncrowded beach. Thanks for everything!

Charming, no frills

We enjoyed our stay at this property, in a quiet residential neighborhood with amazing proximity to beautiful beaches. The cottage is on the older side and definitely showing some wear and tear, but the beds were comfortable, kitchen well-stocked, surroundings quiet and peaceful. Perfect size and baby-friendly for the three of us.

The beach is mesmerizing!

We had a great time in the Haena property. The management team took care of all of our needs promptly? The beach, only a few steps away, is lovely. We enjoyed snorkeling just a short walk down the beach at Tunnels beach. The Napali Coast hike was rough but well worth it. Gorgeous views! FYI- the helicopter tour ( doors off) Spectacular! M & M

An old-world charmer near Tunnels

One of the few remaining authentic cottages in Haena, oozing old Hawaiian charm and homeliness. The location can’t be beaten, just a stone’s throw from the north coast’s best beaches, which are otherwise impossible to park at; so having the ability to walk or cycle (3 bikes are provided) to Tunnels Beach is an absolute godsend. Apparently a complete rebuild of the house is on the cards. But my advice is to book now and enjoy the old-world Kauai vibes while they last!

Magical Paradise

We loved the little home nestled under a beautiful guardian tree with flowers and Birds all around. The house had everything we needed including bikes. snorkel gear and vitamix blender. The only little challenge was that the beach is right in front of the house however there is another house as a private property and you have to organize an accesss if you want to go directly, so you walk through someone’s garden. Otherwise there is a public beach access about 3 min bike ride.

Aloha, We appreciate your feedback and are happy you enjoyed your stay. The path is for both homes, the front one and the cottage you stayed in. It is perfectly fine to walk through the yard. with warm aloha, The Mana Kauai Island Vacations Ohana

Lovely house with a great location

Our family enjoyed our time here, and the proximity to Tunnels Beach (a short walk) and Hanalei (a 10 minute drive) was excellent. The home was incredibly clean and had all of the things we needed during our stay (great linens, washer/dryer, full kitchen). One thing to note is the walls don't go all the way to the ceiling, so you don't get a ton of privacy in the bedrooms. Fine for our family, but not great if you're traveling with two couples. One other thing I wish we would have done was packed coffee in our suitcases. We arrived late evening (around 8 pm) and every store on the island was closed. Having coffee readily available (without driving) would have been so nice!

Our visit

This is a quaint house in a great location, with lots of kitchen gadgets. As others have said, the walls in the bedrooms don't go all the way to the ceiling, so it is best for one couple, maybe with some young kids-- when one person has lights on, or is talking, everyone will see/hear them. Even though it is only a few minute walk to the beach, of course you don't get that "right on the beach" feeling. One reason I chose this house were the many reviews that noted how clean it was. However, while the house was superficially clean, it needs a deep cleaning—lots of insects, dust, etc. near the walls, behind the beds etc. Outdoor furniture very dirty; we cleaned the table so we could use it. Some of the linens in the closet were clean, but in many cases smelly. Most of the dishes in the cabinets were not very clean especially when we got behind the front row. Our contact Joanne was very attentive in setting up our visit, and when we left, I sent her an email about the need for a deep cleaning, and she immediately thanked us and said she would talk to the team. So, could just be a one time oversight.

Brenda, We are sorry that the cottage was not to your liking. We do want to clarify that it is exactly 100 yards from the front door of this cottage to the sand on the beach. You never leave your yard, just walk straight out your door to the beach. We do pride ourselves on the cleanliness of this property. It is an old plantation cottage but our cleaners work hard to make sure it is well cleaned. If you are not using the ac and the windows are all open to capture the trade winds, you can get some debris in the house. Also, we do have to rewash all linens before putting on beds being on the beach and in the tropics our cabinets and closed drawers get musty very quickly. Having said that, we did have a deep clean done on the house after this check out and regret anything that did not make this a pleasant accommodation.

Heavenly Hanalei/ Haena

You can’t beat the location as far as scenery goes!!! So incredibly beautiful. It is about a 10 min drive from Hanalei so be sure to grab groceries in Hanalei before heading out.

Great Beach Cottage, Amazing Location

This property is the perfect North Shore beach cottage, in an amazing location, literally steps away one of the best secluded beaches on the north shore, yet just a two minute beach walk from the world famous Tunnels Beach. The property is quiet, air conditioned, furnished with high quality towels and linens. It will be our north shore go to destination on future trips.

Embodies the spirit of the north shore

Such an amazing location, right next to Tunnels beach (a short walk via either the road or along the beach), and also a short easy drive to Hanalei for restaurants and shop (not to mention some of the best shave ice on the island at Wishing Well)! House was true to the listing, with all the amenities we needed, and a great large lanai for meals or relaxing. Joanne was very responsive, and able to provide additional help with the vacation if needed. The large grassy areas both in front and back of the house are great for kids to play in too. A perfect spot to spend some time on the north shore!
