My wife and I took 10 family members on "the trip of a lifetime" to Kauai, and because of our number, we had to stay in two different homes for the first four nights of our stay. Both houses that we booked were wonderful properties, but we gave our adult children and oldest grandson the "better house."
We got to walk through it when we checked them into the house, and although we expected to see a stunning property (based on the pictures of it on this site), we were still blown away by its magnificence! There were many "oohs" and "aahs" as we all walked around, being shown the property by the Property Manager, Yen Upson (more on her in a bit).
Spacious, modern, comfortable, secure (gated entry) and amazingly beautiful (with stunning views to match!), this incredible house offers visitors to the Garden Island everything that one could ever hope for, in making a visit here a memorable one. It checks off ALL of the boxes!
And although my wife and I didn't sleep here, our children and grandson assured us that they all slept in peaceful tranquility, on super comfy beds, with windows open, overlooking the scenic landscape......never hearing a sound from any neighboring property.
Adding to its allure, you are greeted and made welcome by one of the sweetest ladies that I have ever met: Yen Upson. Kind, gracious, informative and extremely helpful, Yen is not your typical Property Manager. She is, indeed, on a par with the house, itself! She was not only attentive to all of our needs, but even went so far as to secure a reservation at the leading restaurant in Hanalei for all 10 of us! And was able to do so on very short notice! I didn't even have to ask! All that I had to do was make mention of my failure to obtain reservations, even though I had tried a month in advance, and she told me that she knew the owner and would arrange everything! Wow! It sure does help to know people who have connections! Lol!
We had managed to secure a house that could handle all 10 of us after our first four nights on the island, and although it was a very nice house in its own right, it really paled in comparison to Laulea Kailani Villa. Our children and grandson couldn't stop talking about it for the remainder of our vacation, and had my wife and I hoping and praying that we might be able to visit Kauai one last time, just so that WE might be able to stay here, one day! :-)
Do yourselves a favor and nab this stunning property, if it is available when you visit!
