We stayed at Hale Aku with four friends, so there were six of us total. Such a beautiful home. Lots of space, and was very well equipped for our week there. The location is perfect for walking to town or to the beach. Both only took a few minutes. Only thing to keep in mind, is that like most houses in the area, there is no AC. The house is very well equipped with fans though. We would definitely stay again.

This beautifully appointed home, Hale Aku, was incredible and a perfect location! Blake was so nice, personable and a great contact for info, reservations, and more! We really felt so welcomed and comfortable in this home with everything provided that we could possibly want or need. Can not say enough about our stay in Hanalei and Pure Kauai as our booking agent! Outstanding source. Will definitely return! Thank you!

Wonderful kitchen. We weren’t sure at first, but it has everything you could need and a wonderful cooking surface. The large table made it ideal for many meals at home. We would all come back to this house.
Thank you

We rented this lovely home to take our children and grandchildren for a week in Hawaii.
The location was perfect, the size for six adults and three babies was quite comfortable. The secondary living space was unused. Our only comment is that there is no real usable outdoor space. However the beach is 100 steps away.
The best thing is this home was very well appointed. We wanted for nothing. From the kitchen to the towels to the wide array of beach chairs toys and umbrellas.
It’s a definite winner if you’re visiting Hanalei.

We were a party of seven and spent one week in Hanelei in this incredible entire house! The location is perfect, just a few steps from the beach where we were able to surf everyday and whithin a walking distance from al shops and good restaurants in Hanelei. The house was very well equiped with everything we needed for our stay. I strongly recommend it and would come back here again.

There was 6 in our group (originally suppose to be 8). We had the most marvelous time. The house was beautiful and such a stocked kitchen with everything you could ever think of needing. It was so clean and Justin was only a phone call away if we needed anything.
The beach was 3 1/2 minute walk from the house and shopping and restaurants were 5 minute walk. So convenient.
We would definitely rent this house again if/when we come back to Kauai!!!

The house was perfect for our extended family. It had every modern amenity, plus was across the street from the beach and walking distance to the center of town. The mountain views from the top floor were amazing. Most impressive was Pure Kauai, who took care of our every need. We did not want to leave. We definitely recommend the property and highly recommend booking it through Pure Kauai.

We book this wonderful house for a week to celebrate our 40th anniversary with our 3 grown sons and their wives. The house is spacious and we never felt that we didn't have room to spread out. The kitchen on the top floor is the "working" kitchen, we used the downstairs kitchen to store extra food and drinks in the frig and to store our Costco purchases and just brought everything up when needed.
The highlight for the 3 "30 something couples" was having our own bathrooms for each bedroom. It gave an amount of privacy that made the week even better.
This house is really close to the beach and to the town. Yes, you can walk everywhere and that Hanalei Bay is so large we never felt like we were fighting crowds.
There is a wonderful farmers market on Tuesdays just up the road past Hanalei, it is a great place to get fresh local produce and don't forget to stop at the "pie Lady" and purchase a slice or a whole pie. We had it for dessert one night and loved the passion fruit cheesecake.
Our island host, Justin, was great. He answered all our questions and arranged outings for us and even a private surf lesson for 3 of our kids.
We would rent this home again if we are in the north side of kauai. We felt safe and tucked away a bit from the town. Ke'e and Tunnels Beach are literally 17 minutes away enabling us to get there earlier than the Poipu crowd and find a parking spot without having to drive an hour.
We loved eating at Postcards Cafe (reservations needed) it was a delightful way to end our celebration week.
