Early Christmas with the Fam

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: It was the perfect house for us to celebrate an early Christmas with our kids coming in from Colorado and Alaska! We had never been to Kauai and loved it! We liked being up north where it is nice and low key. The house was amazing and our hosts were great. Definitely planning another trip!! 🥰

nice house on the beach road has most everything you need

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is a nice house on the quiet end of the beach road. It is well-appointed and very comfortable. It has almost everything you need -- surfboards, boogie boards, bikes. We just wish it had a place to hang swimsuits and towels to dry. The screens are great, but the chairs are so heavy. It would have been nice to have a book in the house describing everything.

Peaceful and lovely home in amazing location!

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: My husband and I have stayed in a smaller cottage on Weke Rd before and absolutely love this quiet neighborhood near the beach and Hanalei town shops and restaurants. This house is beautifully decorated, squeaky clean and luxuriously comfortable. The wrap-around screened in deck was my favorite feature because you could have the house doors open all the time to feel the breezes and hear the rain showers. The gigantic long table was our central gathering location for morning coffee, games, and cocktails. There were even four adult sized bikes we used every day which saved us bike rental costs. We had one hot water heater issue on day 1 and Lisa replied literally within moments to an email late at night and had a repair first thing the next morning. :)

Ka Makana

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: Aside from being stunning, comfortable, spotless and private the house has everything you need for the beach near or far. Also, access to the best part of Hanalei Bay is only a short walk away. Downtown Hanalei is also a short walk or bike ride away or you can stay in and spend hours playing games on the giant table in screened in porch. I wouldn't stay anywhere else. Ka Makana is perfect!

High Grade Property

My family had the best time in this beautiful, well appointed home. Close to town, best beach just down the street. Leaving it to return home was the only issue we had.

Best house in Hanalei

Absolutely beautiful home! Kitchen has all the amenities, very comfortable beds, all beach toys. Best part is the wrap around fully screened in deck.

A slice of Hanalei Heaven

What an incredible place in Hanalei! The pictures do not do it justice. The house is gorgeous! So well designed, modern and every amenity you could want to a Hawaiian getaway. The location is amazing-a VERY short walk to the beach, next to a river, and a short bicycle ride to the shops and restaurants in Hanalei. The house is stocked with everything you could want for a Hawaii trip with adults and kids of all ages: bikes, beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, surfboards, kayaks, ice chests, you name it, this place has it! It was also the perfect place to call home for a week with our family with everything to make gourmet meals to outdoor grilling with fresh Hawaiian fish caught by the local neighbor across the street. Also Lisa is one of the kindest and most communicative owners/property managers I have ever dealt with. Our Hawaiian vacation in Hanalei couldn’t have been better. Can’t wait to stay here again!

Improvement to the house but not the experience

This was our third time staying at this wonderful house. We have long loved the location, house, and total experience. The bathrooms have been updated and are much better. The house in general is great. Unfortunately, this trip was not as enjoyable at this house due to constructions noise. We were not made aware that construction is underway at the property right next door and to the bridge which is right behind the house. Both projects had heavy equipment running beginning shortly after 6AM and throughout the morning. It was not quite the same enjoyment of the property to have listen to both projects. Being that windows and doors are always open for the breeze, it was a constant nuisance. I would have appreciated being told by the property manager at the time of our booking (4 weeks prior) that these projects were under way. After all, this property advertises the quiet you are suppose to enjoy. Speaking of which, I never spoke with, or heard from any property representative at any time before, during, or after our stay. Radio silence.
