About this property

Cute and quaint little cottage on a homestead.

This quaint country cottage in Anahola sits on acreage surrounded by fruit trees and tropical foliage. If you are looking for an authentic local experience, this is it. Far from resort vibes, Banana Hideaway is as real Kaua'i as you can get. Wake up to incredible mountain views of famous Kalalea mountain. Fall asleep to sounds of the ocean. Just a 5-min. drive to beautiful Anahola Bay; fun for walking or playing in the protected lagoon and basking in the sun. Great central island location, Anahola is just 30 mins. from Hanalei town and 50 mins to the sunny south side, Po'ipu Beach. Numerous shops, restaurants and grocery stores are in Kapa'a town only 15 mins. to the south or visit historic Kilauea, just 15 mins. to the north. Banana Hideaway provides an unforgettable Kaua'i experience.

We offer goat yoga on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturdays at 9 AM and extend a special rate for guests. Visit www.808goatyoga.com for more information.

Beautiful property and cottage in a great location for exploring the island. Kaala is a lovely host and even lent me some crutches when I sprained my ankle!

We loved the location of this place. Pretty convenient for exploring different points on the island. The property itself is beautiful. Our host was welcoming and warm. As visitors to Kauai, we felt good about choosing a place to stay that financially benefits native Hawaiians versus staying at a resort or renting from nonnative peoples.

Kaala was a great host. Super chill and helpful. The cottage was just what we were looking for. No resorts, no tourists. Beautiful grounds.The cottage had nice touches and had everything we needed for a nice decompress after a week of doing the tourist thing. Next time we'll be staying here for our entire stay. Can't wait to come back. Aloha

Great location

The Banana Hideaway is a great location for easy access for east side and north shore activities. And the cabin is very cozy and comfortable.

ABSOLUTELY Amazing! Just wow, Kaala was such a gracious and kind host, gave us space and helped with any and all needs. We will be doing a yearly visit to her cottages! And if you get the chance you MUST do 808goatyoga, with our teacher Sheera, the story of the island and the fun to be had is priceless! We look forward to our next stay next year!

Cozy Cottage

Our stay at this property was lovely. The cottage is the perfect size for 2 and is very cozy. The sounds of nature were also very nice to wake up to.

Hidden paradise with goats!!!

We absolutely loved staying at Kaala’s place. It was a wonderful location with an amazing view. The village of Anahola is beautiful and quiet. There are wonderful beaches nearby and beautiful hikes. We were lucky to stay here because there is goat yoga on the property! I had so much fun and would definitely recommend it. It was a wonderful experience. Great stay overall.

Good location if you want to be near a beach and not at a resort.

A small but quaint cottage that offered goat yoga. Cooking was a little challenging because there was only 2 hot plates but there were enough cooking supplies. It was quiet and peaceful and the host was pleasant and accommodating. It was about a 5 minute drive from a very nice beach that had a wonderful walkway. Down side was limited storage.

Rustic get away

Sweet Banana was wonderful! The weather on our arrival was not! Colder temperatures and a down-poor made for muddy unpacking conditions and we were surprised to discover the bedroom (of the 2-room structure) had no glass in the wall of windows. We hung extra layers over the curtain rods and made use of the extra blankets provided. This made for one of the best night sleeps ever! Bed and bedding were super comfortable. Hot water in the bathroom came quickly. The hot plate and microwave were adequate for making simple meals (pasta, seared tuna, stir fries, eggs…). Beautiful feral roosters, chickens, and chicks abound (no alarm clock needed!). Kaala lives on the property and was super responsive but never intruding. Great stay if you want to get away from it all!

About the host

Hosted by Kaala Clarke

Host profile image
Aloha, I’m Kaala. Raised in Anahola on this property by my single mother Manulele who’s almost pure Hawaiian and now raising my daughter who is 17 in 2025. We are deeply connected to this sacred place and happy to host visitors looking for an authentic Hawaiian stay that is more about appreciating the land and host culture than resort living. E Komo mai. We welcome you.

What makes this property unique

Anahola is the most sacred place to the feminine in all of Polynesia. It’s a sweet place to call your Kaua’i home.
