If you are looking for the ultimate Kauai experience, then look no further! Located on the North Shore, the most desirable area of Kauai, known for its tropical lushness, sandy beaches, snorkeling, surf and beautiful sunsets.
This 2 bedroom - 1 bath plantation-style cottage sits on one and a half acres on a quiet residential area outside Kilauea town. From our neighborhood, enjoy beautiful mountain (or 'pali') views. Stunning Hanalei Bay and Princeville are a short drive (10-15 minutes) down the highway. The secluded beach, Rock Quarry, is a quick drive down our residential road.

We were so pleased with the house and property that we decided to come back again. Adrienne is a wonderful host who communicates well when booking and offers good information about visiting Kauai. Everything in the house is clean, spacious, and perfect for a vacation with a longer stay to explore the island well. I have recommended Adrienne and her property to several friends.
The host was extremely welcoming and contacted us twice before our stay. She sent us information through the mail as far as activities and potential restaurants in the area. The home was extremely clean with every thing Needed for the stay.
Adrienne was such an attentive and gracious host. The cottage was beyond wonderful and gave new meaning to "well appointed"! The space was clean, inviting, and ample. Amenities left nothing to be desired, and the kitchen was equipped for just about anything you'd want to prepare. The location can't be beat if you love the North Shore (but also want occasional access to southern destinations). And we LOVED the outdoor shower!
Fabulous property! Everything was perfect. Very close to great restaurants, beaches and gardens. Highly recommend the farm to table dinner and garden tour at Common Ground (less than 10 minutes away). Thank you for a wonderful vacation!
We totally enjoyed our stay at Hale Mahana. We found the property clean and well maintained. We found everything we needed to cook and grill. The area very peaceful and quiet. We would highly recommend Hale Mahana we can't wait to return
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this lovely, comfortable cottage. In particular, we have appreciated the beauty and peace of this special place on our favourite Hawaiian island.When we return home to the UK, we’ll take back happy memories of sunny mornings drinking coffee on the lanai and gazing up at the star filled sky at night. We have had an amazing time and sincerely thank Adrienne for being such an excellent and caring host.
Our stay was great. We really enjoyed being in a quiet part of the island, with shops, restaurants, beaches, and hikes nearby. Adrienne was a great resource for us and she is very organized and thorough!
Very clean and cozy. Kitchen had everything you would need in it. Laundry was nice to have. Outdoor shower was unique. Roosters are very very loud so be aware of that. Lol.

Thank you for your kind words! We’re so glad you enjoyed the cozy space, kitchen, laundry, and outdoor shower. The chickens are part of Kauai life—they roam freely everywhere (you’ll even see them at Costco!), so from time to time they may wander through the neighborhood. We’re happy you enjoyed your island time and hope to welcome you back again.
Hale Mahana has everything you would expect from a hawaiian cottage. And it is in perfect shape. Whether Lanai, bedrooms, kitchen, outdoor shower, tranquillity or birds music everthing makes the stay perfect. Thank you Adrienne
In the middle of paradise we stayed in this extremly wellkept and wonderfull cottage. The estate area was big with beatiful views. Kitchen had all modern equipments . The two bedrooms have nice quinnbeds. Even the outdoor shower gets top mark.
The cottage was sweet and comfortable and had a lovely out of the way feel.
