We have stayed in two different homes over the past few years with garden island rentals both have been amazing, but it is sure hard to beat a home on the beach. Not only was the house and a location a perfect point to hang out or explore the south side of the island. The folks at Garden island were also nice enough to let us have a late checkout which helped made it up for one full day that we lost due to our airlines canceling a connecting flight. After two experiences with this company, I would not hesitate to recommend to anyone Mahalo D Price

This beach lives up to its name of Baby Beach, it definitely does not get any better if you have young kids. We look forward to possibly having you and your family back again!

We were amazed upon our arrival. The beach is just beyond the front yard...what a sight! There was plenty of room and waking up to crashing waves was so relaxing. I highly recommend staying here!
Perfect location for our family which included a 4 year old and an 8 year old! Can't get any closer to the beach and the ocean, with beautiful sunsets as an added bonus. Loved the property. Would stay again, and again and again.....

not modern but comfortable
We had a nice stay. The house is very outdated, but we had a good time. The small beach right in front of the house was always very busy, with many families with small children there. Unfortunately, there was not much shade, but we were able to protect ourselves from the sun with towels hung up.

This was our second time staying at Hale Ohe and we loved it! Best location, seconds from a great sandy beach for snorkeling, floating or jumping in the waves. Already reserved for 2022!
We had a fabulous time at Hale Ohe right on Baby Beach. The house was immaculate and well stocked, we ate nearly all our meals on the beautiful porch overlooking the ocean, and it was close to Poipu but away from all the hotel action. Perfect for our family of 4 with 2 teenagers, but would suit a family including ALL ages. YES - we did see babies on the beach every day !! 💜
Cannot get any closer to the beach than this! Location, location, location! Also, super responsive with communication. Cannot go wrong with rental.
One small caveat- there is a walkway directly beside house. Resulted in vehicles parking around the property and people walking in and out. (Small annoyance compared to everything else)

Aloha Sue, we are happy to hear that you felt one cannot go wrong with Hale Ohe! This property is literally the closest beachfront rental in Poipu. Since the beach is a popular public beach, known as Baby Beach due to its safety/protective reef, it can get a little busy at times, especially on the weekends. There is a State of Hawaii public beach access path between Hale Ohe and it's neighbor to the west. Over the years no guests have reported any problems or issues due to this and the majority don't mind it at all. We look forward to hosting you again in the future. Mahalo!

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Beach front.
Flakes fell off the ceiling in the 2nd bedroom the whole time we were there. It got in my hair at night, it was all over the comforter and the floor.
The toilet paper holders are not very sturdy. The showers could use updating.
The location was beautiful and stunning. We loved the views.

There aren't enough words to describe how great our stay at Hale Ohe was. The house has been updated quite a bit since the listing photos were taken. It's clean, the location can't be beat, and the house was outfitted with everything we could possibly need. Garden Island Rentals was wonderful and had great communication throughout our stay. We're already planning our next trip to Kauai and there's no place else we'd rather stay than Hale Ohe.

Reviewer Comments:
Six of us spent 12 very relaxing, fun days here. The location can't be beat, especially if you have children with you -- you are literally on the beach. We spent a lot of time dining on the deck, staring at the ocean, spying sealife. Baby Beach is aptly named, perfect for small children, and we did see a lot of sealife, including turtles, as we snorkeled along the rocks (the snorkeling area next to the Beach House restaurant an easy few blocks away is even better!). For easy access swimming, you'll want to go elsewhere. The house is well stocked, bed are very comfortable. Better kitchen knives would be a big plus. It does sleep 6, but 6 adults/older teens would be difficult privacy wise. Really, you rent this place for the location and we were very, very happy with our stay.

This was our 10th or 11th stay. We come to relax and enjoy the sun and water. We live in Colorado, and we left a lot of very cold weather there. We have seen Hale Ohe' be well maintained and cared for all these years. It is just a delightful place to be. The beach is so beautiful, and the sunsets are beyond compare. This little house has everything for a quiet restful experience.

We loved this home! The floor plan was perfect for us. (Two couples)The waves and oceanfront beach access were undeniably the best assets. Turtles on the beach daily and close to restaurants and shopping. The public beach ( directly in front of the house) was very busy but we got our beach chairs out first thing to guarantee a spot right near the home. Great experience!
