We were a large group of 19 people ranging in age from 1 to 78. This house is perfect for our needs. 7 bedrooms, 7 baths, tons of seating inside and out. If you wanted a quiet space to read, plenty to choose from. If you wanted space to have a big family dinner, dinning room table was awesome. We were on the beach in the morning to see the sunrise and on the beach at night to look at the stars. Truly an amazing house in a very spiritual area Our only complaint was that we should have booked for a longer time !! Joe and Melody were awesome to work with, Angie the cleaner was delight.

Perfect setup for large families. Right on beach. In the rural tribe land of Kauai

House was big. So big it fit 18 of us no problem. Clean house with a great location to the beach. We did have a plumbing problem but was taken care of by owner fairly quick, turns out some plumber broke off a plumbing snake in the pipe and left it. Other than that great property. I would definitely stay here again. Thank you to the owners, we had a great family reunion.

TL/DR: Area more beautiful than the pics can show, house is roomy & comfortable. Host is very responsive. Highly recommend, 5 stars! The 1st thing I saw after walking through the door was the absolutely gorgeous view of the ocean. The pics on the listing don't do it justice. The water was much closer than I expected & so amazingly beautiful. Probably best not to swim in this particulsr area since there are riptides & occasional jellyfish. But you can either walk to an estuary where the river flows into the ocean & the water is calm or you can walk in the opposite direction to another area where the water is also calm. The listing describes the house as big & they aren't lying. The group with me & my husband included my mom, my siblings, their partners & their children. We had no issues finding comfortable rooms for all of us. Since the kids' room was on the opposite wing from the living room, dining room, & kitchen area, we didn't have to worry about our volume level after the kids were in bed. The hosts of the house were very responsive to any questions we had & provided a very detailed informational email about the house & our surrounding area. My family & all had a wonderful & relaxing stay. We'd love to come back again. Highly recommend this property!

There was 18 total, including 8 kids ranging from 2 to 15, and everyone loved the house! Right on a great swimming beach and plenty of room for everyone to enjoy without being on top of each other! There were ants and bugs, as many island houses have anyways, and that will not keep up from returning to this house! Thank you!!

Was a wonderful trip. Only downside was a few cockroaches and quite a few ants. The front porch had quite a few spiderwebs. The location was great and the size of the home was perfect. We had 17 family members from ages 2 to 65. I would recommend this place.

Had a wonderful stay here with a large group from work. The house is huge with plenty of room for everyone.

The house was perfect for our large family. The house was stocked for everything we needed. Tons of beach items, full kitchen and every room had a bathroom!!! I have never had such amazing communication with a homeowner Joe was fantastic. Thank you so much for letting us all get together for a perfect island vacation. We made memories that will last a lifetime.

Fantastic location and perfect layout for big group. Great beach with awesome locals to hang out with. Plenty of beds and bathrooms for everyone. Highly recommend staying here.

This was a great place for our two families. Plenty of room for everyone, steps from the beach, not far from all the places we wanted to go. A great option, especially if you have a large group.

Our family really enjoyed staying in this spacious, unique home situated right on Anahola Beach which is among the best beaches in Hawaii: no rocks, no coral, plenty of sand, mellow surf and less crowded compared to other beaches we visited that included Tunnels, Hanalei Bay, Poipu and others. Boogie boarding, body surfing and tanning was how we spent our days and if you are looking to unwind and relax this is the place. We found the weather to be better than Poipu (less hot) and Princeville (less cloudy). The hosts were very accommodating and communicative and are actively improving the home with recent flooring and AC upgrades. The house itself is HUGE and harkens back to Kauai's plantation days with a gated courtyard in front and a great room with beams and ceiling fans with bedrooms and bathrooms throughout. We were only 2 families but we could see 3 or 4 families fitting easily and there is enough room for everyone to have privacy. That said, there are a couple public access roads next to the house and a path through the back yard that the locals and neighbors use to get to the beach. Initially it was odd to see people walking through the back yard a few times a day but we came to appreciate that the beach is for everyone and that this is a true local beach that everyone is there to enjoy in their own way. The locals drive ATVs and 4x4's on the beach which can get a little noisy so be ready for that and there are several "campers" you will pass by on your way to the beach that we didn't have any issues with but some in our party found to be unsightly and were not as comfortable with the locals' dogs running around. Our family didn't mind so much and we really liked the location of the house and the beautiful sunrises along with the hypnotic sounds of the waves crashing. We've stayed in many resorts and have enjoyed those as well but that is a different vibe entirely. Overall, we found this to be an authentic and enjoyable Hawaiian experience that we hope to repeat again sometime soon!

I set out to find a place that was on the beach and could accommodate our large family. I found exactly that when I found the Anahola beach house. Plenty of room for everyone. Private bathrooms in all bedrooms gave everyone their own space while the living/kitchen/ dining area allows everyone a place to be together without any crowding. This was great, I have stayed in a few places that can sleep plenty of people but lack the space for everyone to eat and hang out together and this was just what our family needed on this trip. Great to be right on the beach and avoid loading sand covered kids in and out of vehicles. The kids had a blast catching lizards and opening coconuts in the yard. The house has a beautifully updated clean interior which was beyond expectation. The drive in and neighborhood of the beach area seems mostly local . Laid back cool local feel, not a resort area. Joe was very responsive to any questions or needs we had during our stay. Can't wait to go back. This was a special trip our family will always cherish. -Mike
