Loved our stay at this house. It's right on the beach! The house is very high end. (Washer and dryer are on ground floor - we found these late in the stay.)

Beautiful house

We had an amazing time staying at the Haena beach house. The house is a on a quiet stretch of beach about a mile walk to Tunnels beach. We had a pair of seals sleeping right outside most mornings. Great patios perfect for stargazing. We would love to stay here again on our next trip to Kauai.

The Perfect North Shore Escape

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We just spent the most relaxing, magical week at this beautiful spot! The home was nicely decorated (better in real life than photos), very clean, well-appointed, and comfortable. The AC was especially appreciated. And of course, the location was amazing. We loved being able to pop outside and onto the beach to see the sunrise, sunset, do our morning stretching, etc. Much of the beach to the east and west outside the home is too rough and rocky for swimming, but there was a nice little swimming hole immediately in front of the house - perfect for a quick dip, not necessarily snorkeling. And while this home wasn't necessarily "walking distance" to Tunnels (our favorite beach on Earth), it was so close by that it made it very quick and easy to drive over early in the morning to get a parking spot before the lot filled up. We only had one small issue during our stay (a massive downpour knocked out the hot water heater) but the host was incredibly responsive and had it fixed within a couple hours. We'd love to come back and stay again one day!

Gorgeous

This is a very beautiful house on the North Shore. The house sits right on a very quiet beach, and the property itself is lovely. The house is beautifully appointed with incredible views of the ocean from the kitchen, living room and several decks. Everything about our stay was terrific, and we hope to be back at this property again soon.

Dream Home

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house was in the perfect location. The water right outside the back door is an incredible snorkel spot, super calm (we were here end of august) and easily could ride your bike or walk to the famous tunnels beach. My favorite beach in the whole world. There’s ample places outside to have meals and play game. This house having a/c was a major selller for us. Everything worked perfectly. The kitchen had every you will need to cook all your meals.

Nice house and location, needs some love

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our second stay in less than three months. The house is small, but lovely and the beach is nice. Despite being a newer house, it needs some love/maintenance (gutters are clogged causing rain to spill over doorways, about 70% of the windows don't open and/or have broken hardware, the AC did not work on our second stay, etc).

Perfection

We absolutely loved out stay at this cozy, modern residence. The pictures accurately represent the beauty of the home The kitchen is both well laid out and well appointed. Since there are not many restaurants within walking distance, having a comfortable cooking space was important to us. The property is well designed and enjoyable to lay around on days you don't want to spend time on the beach (steps away). Add to that, the property caretaker was kind and helpful when we needed to reach out. I cannot wait to return.

Week in Paradise

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had the absolute best time during our one week stay at Haena Beach House. The home is beautiful, nicely updated, air conditioned(!!), and extremely clean. The stretch of beach where Haena Beach House is located is one of the best — there are large rocks and rougher waters further down the beach, but just outside this house there are no large rocks and a barrier reef further out that made for calm waters, especially in the morning. The house is well appointed and the location is a short 10 min drive to Hanalei along one of the most beautiful roads. Staying here was a bit of a splurge, but well worth it!

Our favorite rental ever!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The home and property were amazing! What a beautiful home on the water! The home and grounds were in perfect condition, clean and high quality. So relaxing for our 4 night visit in April! We loved all the sitting areas to enjoy the views and weather. Especially loved the seating area in the family room, right next to the windows. We slept with the windows open every night and slept with a cool ocean breeze and the sound of waves crashing. The bed was so comfortable and we loved the linen sheets. We enjoyed going into Hanalei for dinner a couple nights, which is maybe a 15 min drive away. I would not hesitate to recommend this beautiful home to my friends and family. We would love to visit again.

Beautiful and relaxing stay in Haena!

We stayed here for 9 nights over the 2025 New Year period. This home is EXACTLY as pictured and a beautiful retreat and private experience for the north shore experience of Kauai. Staying here we were always in opposite flow of traffic on the small roadways of the garden state. See, many people come north for the day to enjoy the tranquility of the north shore beaches and to hike the trails along the Napali coast. This means if you want to go south for the day and visit Poipu beach or Waimea canyon then you are opposite the traffic and one-way bridges that allow the north shore to remain quiet. The opposite is true in the evenings. With the beautiful restaurant of Opakapaka next door and the town of Hanalei just 15 minutes away by beautiful drive there are plenty of options for good food if cooking isn’t your thing. The home is well-appointed and we will definitely stay here agajn!!

Haena is beautiful solitude

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Hawaii Life is on top of it, Kevin our Concierge handled everything and was on top of communication.. This house is beautiful, Excellent location, landscaping, beach.. we loved it. We love the drive from Hanalei to Haena, it is the best on the Island of Kauai.. We rented electric bikes from Frank at Electric Bike Experience that Hawaii Life hooked us up with.. Frank was so helpful and the bikes made our stay even better, we could explore and appreciate nature even better on the bikes. There is one Restaurant in Haena that isn't open all the time, no Grocery, a great little market that also is not always open.. you come to Haena for the solitude.. you can drive the beautiful drive 10 minutes into Hanalei for everything you need..
