We had such a nice stay at this house. The house is so beautiful and well taken care of (pictures don't do it justice!). They promptly answered questions and were able to deliver a pack n play for our daughter prior to our arrival. The yard is well kept and has gorgeous views. The best part was the location. It is within walking distance from the town and beach (and the house has plenty of beach supplies). We had plans to go to other parts of Kauai during our stay but ended up staying put after seeing how amazing this place was. We love Hanalei and have visited the town before but it was our first time getting to stay in the town. We will be staying here again and will be encouraging anyone we know going to Kauai to stay here as well!

Absolutely wonderful home for our family to enjoy ten days in Paradise. Every detail in this home is perfect. Having the outdoor shower was a huge bonus each day returning from the beach. Loved having the bicycles available for our use. Location can't be beat. All in All, Kainalu is a special home. This was our 49th time to land in Lihue and stay on the north shore, but it was the first for our new grandson, so we are starting a third generation of Hanalei worshippers!

The photo on Vrbo is misleading. the property is on a cul'de'sac backs on to the shops with no grass area. The main issue is the home next door is under full re-construction work starts at 6:30am and finishes around 4:00pm this should be explained in the rental contract of on the site or the property priced accordingly derring the construction period.

The home had everything we needed. It was clean and really nice in a pretty neighborhood. We very much enjoyed our time here. It was a very easy walk (1 block) for restaurants and shops and an easy walk to Hanalei bay... such a beautiful beach. The house was well equipped for cooking. It also had beach towels/chairs/toys and bicycles. An outdoor shower and laundry also were helpful after coming home from the beach. The host was also very friendly and responsive.

This home was the perfect location for our Hanalei experience. it is a 2 minute walk to the best spots here!
You don't need a thing for the beach they have you covered with bikes, beach toys, surf board etc! we cannot wait to return to enjoy coffee on the wraparound porch and listen to the nature around us with sunrise again!

I rated the accuracy of the online description a 4 only because its better in person than the photos show. Not sure how you could find a better house for what we needed. Great layout, nice big private bedrooms with bathrooms and convenient location to beach and town. Highly recommend!

Very lovely home. We really enjoyed our stay. An easy walk to both the beach and town. Our 5 year old so loved it as well, good for kids and adults. Recommend

Hawaiian style home comfortably furnished in the quaint little town of Hanalei. Loved the wrap around deck with comfy seating and the big ole tub in the master bath (big enough for 2 ;-). Those that like central air dialed down to frigid will not appreciate that only the main bedroom has a window unit air conditioner. We loved it and felt like we were staying in a friend's home. Loved being able to walk to restaurants, shopping, grocery store and of course the world's most beautiful beach, Hanalei Bay. Highly recommend!

This property is definitely a jewel. The kitchen was nicely updated and fully stocked. My husband and our adult married children stayed the week of Labor Day weekend. We rode the bikes quite a bit to the beach and store. It was nice to have equal bathrooms to bedrooms. The house is conveniently located to town and the beach. We never heard loud music like other reviews mentioned. The host was very helpful and prompt when I had questions. My only hesitation for future reservations would be the no refund so far out and lack of A/C in secondary bedrooms and gathering space. It was very hot while we were there and we were pretty uncomfortable. That being said, we live in a dry climate so I’m sure it’s harder on us than most people. Mahalo!

We were very impressed with this nice vacation rental right by downtown Hanalei. It is super spacious and a very nice layout. The big open layout of the kitchen/dining/living area is great. The beds were super comfortable. It is only a 2 minute walk to the shops and restaurants of Hanalei. We will be back!

We were finally able to visit Kauai after two+ years of COVID. We celebrated a 65th and 70th family birthdays, wife's retirement, a daughter's engagement, and a son's new career path. Kainalu Hanalei was decorated in Hawaiian decor which we loved, perfect floor plan for us, beach gear, and an amazing location; cul-de-sac, easy walking distance to beach, and the town of Hanalei. And short drive to Princeville and North Shore beaches. We spent lots of time on the lanai with beautiful mountain views. Hawaii Life staff were there for us and we talked with their concierge several times. Our Kauai visit was truly the trip of a lifetime!

Can't emphasize enough how amazing this property is. The location cannot be beat just a short walk into town and a short walk to the beach. The house was huge for the two of us with an enormous lanai for us to relax in awe of the beautiful waterfall filled mountain landscape. The house also had everything from beach towels, laundry after island hopping, bikes and outdoor shower - truly ultra-convenient. Liz, our host, was also super helpful the last day. Our flight was not until 10 pm so she coordinated the cleaning staff for a very late check out. I can't thank her enough!!

Beautiful Hanalei home
Everything about this beautiful home was welcoming, well stocked for a night in or beach day and adventure out. Spacious, clean, cozy and amazing views from all windows. Gorgeous wrap around lanai porch was a fave spot for morning coffee or sunset chats. My family loved this beautiful home. Location can’t be beat either. Walking distance to beach, shops, restaurants…. Perfect stay.

Upon arrival check in was very easy and we were so happy with the location. Being to Kauai five years in a row we new exactly what to expect and what we wanted. This house offered all of that and more! Enough linens, blankets, towels, equipped for the beach it was amazing they did not skimp out! Beds were comfortable and the house had everything we needed to be at home. Only thing when we arrived there was sticky stuff on the floor I had to clean the floor in the kitchen but other than that no issues at all. Thank you Liz for. Great stay we will def be booking this house again!

My family and I could not have been more pleased with the house we stayed in this week. It was spotless, well-appointed and had everything we needed, included a wonderful chess board that received a lot of use. We loved the location as it was a short walk into town and the bikes were great to stroll to the beach or around Hanalei. Thanks again to Liz, who was the perfect property manager. We had one minor self-inflicted issue that she solved quickly. I highly recommend this property. We had an amazing time!!

We took our adult children and their significant others to Hanalei for a family get away. This property exceeded all expectations, particularly with the layout of the home! Additionally, the amenities were so great - outdoor shower, beach chairs, bicycles, outdoor grill. I would definitely recommend this property / management company to friends and family. The property host was especially responsive and nice!

Lovely home in a great location. We loved our time in Hanalei and this was a great base.
I wish they weren't so diligent about cleaning out ALL food/staples left behind - it would be really useful to have some cooking staples, and would create a lot less waste. But I suspect that's the management company's policy, not the owners'.
