This house was so beautiful and comfortable. The upstairs living area is incredible - the doors all open feeling those soft tropical breezes was so wonderful. The bedrooms were comfortable and it is set up well for beach access. It has easy walking to the Hyatt and the beach. The birds and views are amazing.
Great place to stay for big families. Very spacious and our group of 10 never felt crowded. The house was walking distance to the beach and chairs, umbrellas, beach towels, and a wagon were available to use. Would stay here again!
Host was welcoming and kind. Houses were perfect. A/C and fans in each room, everything needed for meal prep. Beds and common area furniture were comfortable. Everything was clean and well maintained. Plenty of parking places for my large family.We would stay there again.

This home is all you want and more! The views are fantastic. The home is well equipped in all rooms. The kitchen has everything one needs and there are two grills on site, one on the upper deck and one on the ground level. The bedrooms and bathrooms are extremely nice and large. There are multiple sitting areas, large enough for groups or one can escape to be by themselves.The detached home is very nice too, with two bedrooms and two bathrooms plus a sitting room and kitchenette. It was nice having laundry facilities on site! Easy walk to multiple beaches.
Our family loved the gorgeous views, clean and spacious rooms with air conditioning and the location to other activities.

The accommodations of the property matched the accommodations of the island. I would come back and do it again. Make sure to catch that sunset on the 3rd floor lanai!

Mahalo for taking the time to leave a review! We could not agree more about the breathtaking views from the 2nd floor. We look forward to hosting your family again in the future!
We had a large group that all fit comfortably. Close to beaches and quaint little towns. The description was one bed short but other than that it was amazing…I would totally go back!!
We had a wonderful stay at Hale Hapuna during the New Years. The home truly lives up to its name—the ocean and mountain views are outstanding, especially at sunrise and sunset. It was the perfect place to relax and take in the beauty of Poipu.One thing we especially appreciated was how well set up the house was for beach days. There was plenty of snorkeling gear, beach umbrellas, beach towels, boogie boards, and beach chairs, with enough chairs for our entire group. Having all of this available made our time at the beach incredibly easy and enjoyable. The nearby beaches were fantastic for swimming and snorkeling, and watching the turtles especially at Brennecke's Beach. The sunrises were amazing at the Lava Arch just around the corner. The house itself was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, with a great layout for a larger group. It felt peaceful and private while still being close to beaches, restaurants, and shops. Communication with the host was excellent, and check-in was smooth.We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend Hale Hapuna to anyone looking for a memorable Kauai stay with incredible views and great beach amenities.

The house exceeded our expectations. It was spacious, well stocked and looked like it had recently been updated. We enjoyed the boogie boards, chairs, umbrellas and beach wagon. The outdoor showers were a plus. It was the perfect space for our family of 12. We plan to return. The property managers were responsive and easy to work with.
Great location. House accommodated all of us with room to spread out. Upstairs livingroom and lanai views were incredible. Entertaining our local family was nice in the spaciousness of the upstairs living and dining area. The curtain/shades in main house were mostly not working but we made due. Enjoyed ourselves and will try to rent again!
My family absolutely loved staying at Hale Hapuna! It was centrally located, so that we could take a leisurely walk to Poipu Beach. The home was very spacious, and we appreciated that each bedroom had its own bathroom. Mostly, though, we loved taking in the view and island breezes from the second floor!
Our family had a wonderful stay at Hale Hapuna. There were 15 of us and there was something for everyone, from the 3 year olds to the 70 year olds. It was a perfect vacation. Everyone enjoyed the walkable beaches, the beautiful views and the spacious living areas. We would definitely do it all over again!
