About this house rental

Kauai License# TVR-1065

Tucked away on over an acre of lush paradise along the Wainiha Stream in an ancient grove of 100 ft. tall mango trees lies the Hale Wainiha. Offering privacy, rest and refreshment, this charming home sits on a bluff overlooking an expansive view of the entire river valley with neighboring taro farm and spectacular vistas of distant mountains. Relax and enjoy the amazing views from the deck or from your private pool and hot tub. Starry nights in the hot tub are truly magical. And the pool is cool and refreshing after a hot day at the beach. Or the perfect morning wake up. The large yard is like a botanical garden filled with exotic birds and flowers and fruit trees. Pick a Papaya or a Banana, cut some giant Heliconia flowers. This lush valley is a serene retreat, nourishing the soul with natures greatest beauty while offering all the modern comforts of home, you almost won't want to leave the property. But when you do, it is ridiculously close to the best beaches on the island, Tunnels, Lumahai, Ke'e and Hanalei. Firstly, Lumaha'i, just 1 mile away, with its long deep stretches of soft sand broken by picturesque protrusions of lava rocks creating dramatic ocean breaks. Tunnels Beach has an amazing reef and offers the best snorkeling on the island, also surfing and the mountain backdrop creates amazing views. At the end of the road is the dramatic Ke'e beach. Besides its great snorkeling, and sunsets, this is the gateway to the amazing Napali Coast offering one of the worlds most spectacular hikes. The 2 mile hike to Hanakapia'i Beach with it's expansive ocean vistas is a 'must do', but if you can do the additional 2 miles to the Hanakapia'i Falls you're in for the treat of a lifetime. A large pool fed by a 300' waterfall, just spectacular!! Wainiha is surrounded by the best snorkeling, surfing, kayaking and hiking on all of the Hawaiian islands. You'll never have to leave this magical corner of the island.
Just 4 miles away is Hanalei Bay with its pristine 3 mile crescent beach of fine sand and perfect surf. The quaint town of Hanalei offers interesting shops, a market, and world class dining. My personal favorites are 'Tahiti Nui' (live music, good Mai Tais) and the 'Dolphin' (freshest sushi you've ever eaten). You can rent kayaks and paddle up the Hanalei river or out to the bay, paddle to Hideaways beach and snorkel, or just land at the St. Regis beach and have lunch at the poolside cafe, (sneak a dip in their beautiful pool). Also you can go Horseback Riding or Ziplining at the Princeville Ranch, or take the amazing Helicoptor ride from the Princeville Heliport. Or do it my way, just take a book and relax on a quiet beach. You'll have your private paradise waiting for your every day when you're ready to go home.

Please Note:
The Hale Wainiha is located in a Tsunami evacuation zone. After confirming your booking a PDF with the evacuation procedure in the event of a tsunami will be provided to you.

We loved the view, the gardens, the privacy the hot tub (the pool was too cool for us) The home was delightful. The cats were fun to interact with. The landscaping is beautiful. We are looking forward to visiting again…Chris and Emily.

What a beautiful, quiet place to relax! We loved our time here. The house was clean, well-stocked and in a beautiful location. We had everything we needed for a perfect vacation. We will definitely be returning in the future!

Jeffrey gave the wrong address on the check in instructions so we got off to a bad start. Although surrounded by dense jungle, the neighbors are actually extremely close and can be easily heard. A dog unexpectedly spent the day at the cottage, blocking the front door. The pool and spa did not look appealing at all. Overall, the cottage is quite rustic but has all the amenities you would likely need. The fridge is small and missing shelves but functioning. The view from the deck is surreal and a pleasant place to sit and sip cocktails. The nearby beaches were great as was the close proximity to fabulous hikes. We appreciated Jeffrey's detailed recommendations.
