VIEWS are AMAZING!!! The deck was absolutely perfect. We all highly enjoyed waking up to a cup of coffee and sitting on the deck that overlooks the beautiful mountains with multiple waterfalls, and enjoyed two mornings with rainbows, just gorgeous. I didn't mind cooking at the kitchen island that faces toward an expansion of windows from one side of the home to the other and being able to see the gorgeous views made it not so bad cooking meals for the family. The walk was less than 3 minutes to the beach trail. Walking to town took less than 5 minutes. The area was very quiet, much easier to walk on than other roads nearby that we've stayed at before. When booking another trip, this will be our first choice of rentals. It checked all the boxes. Plenty of room for our family of 6, all grown adults. Outdoor shower was perfect for my son who took morning swims. We were able to entertain on the deck with another family friends that were also staying in Hanalei as there is plenty of seating, as the kids played games we bbq'd and sip on wine while enjoying the views and cool air. We will definitely be back. I feel the photos for this property do not do it justice. It truly is a perfect home to stay in while in Hanalei Bay. Hanalei Bay is our ideal vacation spot, we will be back and stay here if available. Thank you for sharing your home with us.
