The location is amazing, with both an easy short walk to town at the main and main intersection, as well as a few houses down from the main beach entrance. Hosts were easy to contact and super friendly/accommodating. I sure hope we get to stay here again in the future!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was a last minute booking for my husband and II. We knew we wanted to stay in Hanalei, but inventory was low and properties that were available were all much bigger than we needed. I found this listing and reviews on both major booking apps before finding it managed by StayKauai. As vacation rental owners ourselves, we prefer to book direct for best pricing and personal service. While the cottage can fit six comfortably, it was great for the two of us- we each had a bathroom and the master with King bed was very comfortable. The Kitchen has everything for cooking and basic seasonings (not sure there is a blender?). the ac units worked well, and the bathrooms, towels, linens and floors are very clean. With just a little refreshing (rusty dryer lid, futon cushions showing wear, adding small selection of board games, puzzles) this would hands down be 5/5 all around. Note: I’m picky, stay at vacation rentals around the world, and am a reviewer in the hospitality space. I mention the few things for the owners and because we compared many properties. Furnishings here are fairly basic, still lovely and we have No hesitation in recommending this cottage! We rented bikes and snorkel gear for the week in town, we walked or rode to dinner (Tahiti Nui for live music and fun vibe, AMA for beautiful outside views and yummy ramen and cocktails, Hanalei Bread Company daily for coffee, pastries, and/or breakfast, the Dolphin for fish and sushi). we picked up avocados and star fruit from a neighbors free front yard stand, bought eggs at a farm down the road, and woke early every day to the local roosters crowing. . . it was fabulously local! during a crowded week, we were close to everything yet out of the fray, enjoying the beach, hiking nearby Haena State Park, and sitting on the front porch watching morning rainbows or playing cards outside at night. This would be a great place for a family with a few kids, or two couples. Loved it!

Perfect location to walk to town or to the beach. The house was even prettier in person. For a group of five people it was the perfect set up. 3 bedrooms, and 2 bathrooms. The kitchen had everything we needed. I would recommend this rental to others and I can’t wait to come back. The beach in Hanelai is stunning with the mountains Near by.
