These insects are a natural part of Hawaii’s ecosystem, and their presence does not constitute a breach of contract or entitle guests to a refund. They are generally not harmful, and we strive to ensure your comfort. We appreciate your understanding and hope you enjoy your stay in our beautiful tropical paradise!

Absolutely loved the house! Everything you could need all in one place! Wish the bridge was open - would have made getting around quicker, but didn't disrupt our stay at all. Mornings on the lanai were the best!

Relaxing Kauai Escape – Ideal for Exploring, Unwinding, and Making Memories

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful property on the island of Kauai! The home was spotless, spacious, and had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing vacation with our adult children. We especially loved the peaceful atmosphere and the gorgeous deck — perfect for enjoying morning coffee or winding down in the evening.The house was very well-equipped, with thoughtful amenities like beach chairs, a cooler, and snorkel gear that made exploring the island even easier. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals, and the overall accommodations were cozy and inviting.One thing we really appreciated was the location — it’s extremely convenient to the airport, shopping, and other necessities, yet it feels wonderfully remote and quiet. It was the best of both worlds.A highlight of our trip was a sunset cruise of the Nā Pali Coast with Holo Holo Charters — an unforgettable experience that gave us a view of the island we couldn’t have seen any other way. The crew was professional and the scenery was breathtaking.Highly recommend this rental for anyone looking for a peaceful, well-appointed place to stay while discovering the magic of Kaua'i.

Nice comfy home for family

Beautifully decorated well stocked home, wide open kitchen & living room, great amenities. Washer & dryer and A/C in every room was a real plus. Close to town & shops. A real shame trees too overgrown to really see the water from the balcony, would have been nice to enjoy. Homeless nearby never bother. Overall pleasant stay

Nice Home for a stay on Kauai

We enjoyed our stay at Na Hoa River Home. The rooms were clean, and nearly everything met our expectations. If we had to find something to criticize, it would be the barbecue. It was located downstairs without any terrace nearby. Unfortunately, an uncomplicated barbecue was not possible. But that's complaining at a high level.

Great place!

The house was very nice!, centrally located, nice view. Garden Island properties is very accommodating! The house is stocked with beach gear too! Definitely bring good ear plugs because the local roosters will wake you up. Also the 3rd bedroom is a bit warm, it’s the only one without an AC unit. The people across the street were quiet, not a problem at all. Overall great stay!

The Garden Island

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stay on kauai several times a year. It is a fantastic island. The Na Hoa River Home is not on the river, as the view is of the marina and homeless park.Every evening and during the night the homeless show up in their vehicles, carts, bags, and backpacks.I would not suggest going on an evening walking outside the Na Hoa River Home.The home itself is nice and very accommodating, but the homeless problem will cause me not to book it again.You never know if one of them is a rapist, ex-felon for robbery, or other crimes.The next issue is the location of the Na Hoa River Home is on the other side of the closed bridge, which means a drive that would take 5 minutes is now 20 minutes.

Great 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: We were looking for a rental close to everything. Even with the bridge closed, the alternative route linked you right to shopping and dinning.The yard was peaceful. Yes the chickens are noisy. But overall, the space was peaceful and being right on the water. (My husband was excited because they had an OC6 Canoe club right across the street)
