This was the perfect place to rest and recharge. The cottage had everything we needed and it was a short walk into town and to the beach. The local property mgr went out of her way to make sure we were happy and comfortable. We can’t wait to return!

Location, location, location - this place truly can’t be beat. Being able to walk right into Hanalei for food, coffee, shopping, and the beach made our trip so much more relaxed and enjoyable.The check-in process was extremely clear and straightforward, which made arriving after a long travel day a breeze. The home itself was spotless - very clean, well-kept, and exactly as described.We had a wonderful stay and would absolutely book again!

Kitchen very well equipped, lovely house, comfortable beds and furnishings. High quality sheets and towels. Easy walk to beach, town, and just a block from the big Saturday farm market. Truly in the heart of Hanalei. Only disappointment was there's no outside shower, just a cold water hose to spray feet off.

Response from VrboOwner on 22 Jan 2026
We are sorry to hear this guest did not see the outdoor shower which is located just on the other side of the smaller set of stairs behind the privacy partition. It can also be seen from the window of the second bedroom. We wish the property manager had been contacted and asked about it. Guests should explore all sides of the home to see what is available.

Wonderful spot in Hanalie

This is a lovely, two bedroom two bath cottage tucked into a tidy neighborhood just three blocks away from town and two blocks to the beach. The kitchen was well outfitted and the furniture was comfortable. There was plenty of beach toys, snorkel gear, chairs, and towels.

Fabulous Stay!

Appreciated all of the details to make this stay homey and comfortable. Spacious and well appointed cottage, super comfortable for my husband and I and our adult daughter. A short walk to both town and the beach. The property manager was easily reachable when we needed to track down a beach umbrella and extra chair. Beautiful spot, peaceful and picturesque.
