This was the perfect house for our extended family of 10, just minutes to the beach and town. We couldn't ask for better accommodations and Hilary was an amazing host!

Family Vacation

The house was lovely with lots of character. The location enabled us to make a fairly quick walk to the beach and an even quicker walk to town. We enjoyed the covered porch and the big yard. We did struggle a bit with no ac especially in the afternoon, but that’s nobody’s fault-we knew it going in, and it did cool down at night. We had a great stay.

Amazing house, great location

The house was great and the location was incredible. A quick walk to the beach and into town. The house had chairs, an umbrella, and a wagon for easy transport to the beach. The outside shower was very useful to clean up and keep sand out of the house.

Great stay in Hanalei!

We had three families stay at the house for a week and had a great time. Great location and the house is well appointed. And the property manager and host were both great, answering questions quickly and provided everything that we needed!

Kauai north shore vacation

Gorgeous house and property with great location to explore north shore. Very clean and well stocked with lots of room to spread out. The only negative is poor lighting in the dining and living room. Highly recommend and will stay again when we return to Kauai.

Fun on the North Shore

This is a wonderful property in Hanalei. Easy walking distance to both the beach, and "town." The private yard area is awesome, and the house is well stocked with towels, beach gear, and all the things you need to cook and socialize - even two different grills!The only downside is that this property is located on the main road. Since the house does not have AC (which I prefer), you need to keep your windows open, and acccordingly, you will have road noise. This really didn't bother us (it's not a freeway), but it might bother others - so be aware.

Perfect place for a perfect place!

The house is in an excellent location in beautiful Hanalei, and is stunning itself. It was perfect for our large family group of nine people. Super close to the beach and shops. Hilary was a joy to deal with during the booking and check in process, and it was a treat to meet her in person when we checked out. A truly aloha experience.

A great getaway for a family who can't often get together

The home was just as described with beds for everyone and lots of space for hanging out. The beach gear provided by the host was very good and we put it to good use. The beach was close and easy to get to and the teenagers enjoyed how close it was to town. We cooked in most of the time and took food to the beach for lunches. We really enjoyed our stay. Highly recommend this place.

Life is better in Hanalei :)

This was one of our favorite places to stay in Hanalei. The walk to the beach was short and easy, and the walk to town even more so. There was plenty of room for everyone and the house was well stocked. Communication was quick and responsive. Hilary was wonderful in helping out. Can’t wait to visit again!

Beautiful Hanalei Retreat

What a special place. Loved our stay here in Hanalei at the Wailele Ikena house. We celebrated my moms 80th birthday together with family and made memories that will last a lifetime. Hilary was always helpful and quick to respond to us for any of our needs or questions. The location of the house is great we walked to the bay and rode bikes to the pier. Definitely looking forward to coming back again someday soon.

Amazing!!!!

We had a great, very comfortable stay in this beautiful home! So close to the beach, we did the about 5 minute walk to the beach at least once daily. Hanalei town was extremely close as well, groceries, coffee and shave ice from JoJo's were our most frequent walks. The house was very clean and well stocked with everything needed to enjoy our vacation! The yard was so beautiful and full of many different plants & trees. Hilary the house manager was super responsive and super helpful! We'd love to stay there again if we ever get back to Kauai!!!

Paradise

Loved this home! Great common areas for hanging out together and plenty of space for teens to escape! Road was definitely loud but the beach and town are both close. We read there are over 450,000 roosters on the island so we won’t even complain about them😉. The property manager, Hilary, was very kind, responsive and easy to work with!! I would come back to stay here again!

Perfect Home in Hanalei

Can't say enough good things about this rental. Loved the historic feel of the home. Beautiful and spacious grounds perfect for running kiddos. Postcard view from the lanai. Easy walk to town or beach—the best of both worlds. A great home for groups, with three separate spaces (2 sets of two rooms on the main floor and a primary suite on the second floor). Abundant supplies for beach-going, including chairs, boogie boards, surf boards, wagon, even strollers. Nice, well-stocked kitchen. The highway noise didn't bother us, and the home was breezy and cool in the evenings, even without AC. The host was responsive and helpful. We hope to be back!
