Great spot away from people. Only complaint is the team of trucks doing landscaping, every day we were there. Got a little old.
Wonderful place in a sublime location. 20 years from now, a billionaire will have built a large house here. Until they do, stay here and enjoy it.

The grounds were beautiful and we absolutely loved the access to the beach. It was a trip my wife and I will never forget. And we would absolutely come back.The only negative in our mind was the grounds crew is there alot. And they work long days. Even into wine/sunset hours. But they were very kind and it is a tropical island so id rather have it that way than there be no one keeping the grounds beautiful. But some could find it less private than ideal at times.

This was a five-star experience in every sense. The property was stunning, check-in was smooth and the cottage was very well maintained and had everything we needed to enjoy our 5 day stay. The location is perfect. Only a mile from town and a short walk down to Secret Beach. I would highly recommend staying here and we definitely will be coming back. One note- the gardeners take awhile mowing, weed whacking and blowing so you might want to get out of the house for a few hours when they are there.
We had never stayed on Kuaui before and I lucked out when picking this VRBO. I had no idea that it would be so secluded, so well appointed, so comfortable, and set in such a beautiful location.
Remarkable property and location. Good access to Secret Beach; newly renovated house tastefully decorated. Great property manager Eric who gracefully takes care of the guests requests.
My wife and I could not believe how excellent this place was. Super private, breathtaking view, beach access, and gorgeous home. By far the best vacation rental I’ve ever had. Definitely an easy 5 stars!

Great location if you are looking for some some seclusion but only a mile away from Kilauea. Cute 1 bedroom house with a secluded beach about a 5 minute walk/climb. Highly recommended if you want to get away from all the resorts.

Aloha! Thank you so much for the excellent review and recommendation! We are so glad to hear you loved staying at this home away from home on Kauai! We agree, the location of this home is very beautiful and so nice to be within walking distance to the beach. It sounds like you had everything you needed for a wonderful experience and we greatly appreciate your recommendation! Mahalo for being such pleasant guests and we look forward to seeing you again on your next visit.
Magical place to spend our honeymoon. Private. Beautiful walks down to Secrets beach. My only recommendation would be to add AC unit to bedroom. Hot tub is great. My wife loved the visiting cat to which she named Oscar. Beautiful sunsets sitting on outside recliners

Disliked: Communication, location
Not my monies worth.
View was nice. Property was clean and gated. Trek to beach was about 10-12 minutes at best. Bring bug spray. “AC” was standing fan in one room. Others had nothing. Hot tub was filthy & at low temp on arrival. Not impressed for the $$$ spent.

I'm sorry you were not satisfied! The owner is installing split a/c units which we hope to have done shortly. Yes, 12 acres of property does equal bugs. We hope you enjoyed your stay after all.

Excellent location, quiet picturesque setting, extremely romantic. Beautiful accommodations, with gate, private Gardens, hike down to fabulous beach. Everything in good working order, great bed, linens, and kitchen set up nicely. A little warm in Sept, we hit hot weather, but used the A/C inside to keep the bedroom cool for sleeping. There are some interesting creatures around, but this is jungle. A few bugs were successfully kept at bay with citronella candles when we were out on the deck.

Reviewer Comments:
A perfect, simple retreat for two. The privacy, the views, the flora and fauna, the hike down to the beach. All of it made this cottage a perfect honeymoon retreat for us. We let the breezes blow through the screen doors most every night — leading to blissful, perfect nights of sleep (but the birds do get up early!) Loved our trips to the beach. Big surf in early March kept us from swimming but it was beautiful and not many other people. The 10-minute hike to the water is beautiful but steep in places. The Kilauea village center with shops and restaurants provided great food and a few other people, when we needed any social interaction.

We are so happy you had a wonderful stay and enjoyed its serine location. We do hope to see you again in the near future., and We greatly appreciate your 5 star review as well!
This property is absolutely beautiful. The grounds make you feel like you are at a 5 star resort. The house was immaculate and nicely appointed. It is a romantic dream with the hot tub and outdoor shower opening right into the two person indoor shower. The place does feel very private but there is something you should know. The listing does not make it clear that there are 3 rental houses located on the same property. They are well spaced apart and you do still feel very private, but I was surprised when we showed up and realized we had direct neighbors. The listing could be more clear on this. You can drive almost all the way down to the beach and then it's just a 50 yard or so walk the rest of the way. The beach is one of the nicest I have ever seen. We almost had it all to ourselves. It was pristine with a fresh water grotto leading to a tide pool that felt like a spa. Checking in was a breeze and the company communicated well and everything went like clockwork. Overall our stay was amazing and we would highly recommend.

It was a very private properry with beautiful views and a great location for a perfect intimate setting. Previous reviews mentioned the AC not working in the bedroom and when we arrived, it was very warm, but we put the floor fan at the entry so cool air blew in from the front of the house which fixed the problem. The closet space is also lacking so pack only real compaint was a stray cat hanging around the house and I'm allergic to cats so it was a nuisance. We later found out prior occupants have been feeding the cat and we were not made aware of this ahead of time.

Reviewer Comments:
The photos matched or exceeded the views!Although the cottage was comfortable and mostly in working order—it needs to berefreshed and updated as the interior was tired-lioking in person. I did bring this to Hawaii Life’s attention and was advised that they would relay my comments to the new owner.We were outside mostly so it didn’t bother us tremendously and the bed was comfortable. My suggestion is to lower the price or stop renting it until the refresh is accomplished.

Reviewer Comments:
In 14 years, we've stayed at Hale Lani at least six times, usually for ten days or more on each trip. The cottage is perfect for two people; we visit in October to celebrate our anniversary, and have come to think of it as our home on the North Shore. Ideally situated, and located just outside of Kilauea, you can easily spend every day at the property or make the short drives to Princeville or Hanalei. The South Shore is an easy drive as well, where there are spectacular hikes in Waimea Canyon or the Mahaulepu Trail, not to mention day sails along the NaPali coast from Kekaha. But why leave? Take the easy trail down to Secret Beach for the morning, where you'll see few people and one of the most beautiful beaches on the island, then run into Hanalei for lunch and a stop at the Dolphin Fish market for an impeccably fresh piece of local ahi, hapu, opakapaka---or whatever the day's catch is. Pick up some beautiful salad greens at the farmer's market and don't fail to browse the shelves at the Princeville Wine Market on the way back, then have a storybook dinner on the lanai at Hale Lani starting with sunset over Bali Hai and ending with a universe of stars overhead. We have a number of favorite places in the world, but this is the hardest one to leave at the end of the trip.

Aloha,
Thank you so much for the amazing review and for choosing to celebrate your anniversary with us. It sounds like you are really able to take in a lot of what beautiful Kauai has to offer and enjoyed a wonderful balance of adventure and leisure. Mahalo for sharing some of your trip with us, a story book dinner on the lanai at sunset sounds amazing! We greatly appreciate you being such pleasant guests and we look forward to seeing you again on your next visit!

What a fantastic property! Could not have asked for more. Location was great, accommodations were amazing. hike to beach pretty easy and the beach itself was a slice of heaven. we felt like the only people down there. Small town feel just added to the relaxation. Do know that the roosters will be waking you up at 5:00 am..like clockwork. Added to the charm though. hope to one day be back!
