This was the most wonderful cottage we have stayed in our many visits to the garden isle. The place is even better than the pics and description. An extremely relaxing place on the very quiet north shore that is the home of one lane bridges with signs that implore you to "try slow". The gardens are a botanical adventure with a lovely artistic touch. Perfect for your morning coffee and more. The hot tub spa is luxurious and invigorating. The sounds of the natural world are peaceful and soothing. Tunnels beach is a 5 minute walk and is like swimming in an aquarium teeming with tropical fish. The accomodations are quite comfortable with two lanais to give you different views. And for my wife and I, the best of all was the greeter dog Samson, the black lab who became our friend. This is one romantic getaway on the most romantic island filled with high quality resta

The Tiki Hut was the Best place ever!!! We stayed 8 nights here and from the moment we arrived we knew we would enjoy it. Many thoughtful touches including a welcome basket full of local goodies, homemade banana bread made by the owner and coffee. 2 separate lanais, a fun hammock chair, and a full sized hammock in the garden hung between two palms, laundry basket and shared laundry room, lots of convenient appliances and items; beach chairs, beach umbrellas, beach wagon, snorkel gear and big beach towels and sand free beach blankets. Did I mention our own private jacuzzi tub? Star gazing here is nothing short of phenomenal. Short 5 minute walk down the private road to Tunnels beach access! Our first day there we spotted 6 turtles grazing. Beach combing here is awesome. Great north shore location had us just a short drive to so many fun things to do and Hanalei is like 10 minutes drive away. The gardens on the property were stunning! Just beautiful with so many great plantings, orchids, palms, stag horn ferns, flowers… had awesome lighting at night as well and the bullfrog in the pond that serenaded us each evening. The owner Toni was the epitome of a gracious host, and made our stay even more enjoyable. She even had paints and brushes and coconuts, so i got to paint one to leave as others had also done. The owners dog Sampson was the best! we would definitely highly recommend a stay here. This is a stay that we will never ever forget!! So many wonderful memories. Mahalo Toni.

There are no words to describe our week in the Tiki Hut. Paradise, the perfect location. A short walk to a beautiful spot on the point to watch sunsets. Walk a bit further and you’re right on Tunnel’s looking up at Mount Makana. Toni was most welcoming and we made fast friends with Samson. The garden is immaculate, so thoughtfully planned out and well taken care of. A true labor of love. Thanks so much for our week in paradise.

We spent two weeks at the Tiki Hut and could have stayed permanently. The bed slept heavenly and the sheets and pillows were high quality like my Boll & Branch at home. (Having several pillow choices was helpful to us). The kitchen had everything one would need, in addition to an excellent outside gas grill. Both lanais provided beautiful views of the exquisite gardens created by the owners. Lots of love went into these gardens. They are a living legacy in, and of, themselves. Every area of the vast gardens provided a little surprise addition that made it all magical. We took lots of strolls at different times of the day -just mesmerized by it’s beauty. The hot tub was wonderful and the temp could be regulated cooler if needed. Toni treated us with some sweet welcome gifts, but none better than her banana bread! Trust me, we bought several from various markets and hers is THE BEST. Everything was spotlessly cleaned and well maintained. A short walk to Tunnels Beach provided glorious sunrises and the same beach offered amazing sunsets that evening. The location on the North Shore is perfect. Sampson was a sweet, gentle visitor who greeted us daily. Toni is available should you need her, but is not intrusive, nor will you hear her in her home. It’s separated by a large garage and laundry facility. This place is so lovely and welcoming, be careful. You may not want to go anywhere once you arrive. We have found our “New” place and an amazing host in Kauai. Medea & David Shuman

Everything was idyllic: The cottage, the surrounding huge garden area, the location a couple hundred yards from Tunnels Beach, the beach toys and equipment available for our use, and lovely Samson, the house dog. Toni was great, too!

My partner and I spent a week at the Tiki Hut and it made our trip to Kauai extra special and perfect.
The cottage itself is very comfortable, clean, and relaxing. The surrounding garden is so very special, Toni put about 25 years of work into it and it really does show. Meals out on the lanais, hanging in the hammock, and dips in the hot tub looking at the stars made this a memorable visit. The property is extremely serene and private, which made our vacation feel like a retreat!
The location itself is perfect for those wanting to enjoy the North Shore, it's only a short walk to Haena Point and Tunnels Beach via a small private road. No need to drive to the beach! About 15-20 minutes to Hanalei, the location is perfect for heading into town as needed but having peace and quiet at your home for the week.
Toni and her black lab Samson are both extremely nice and Toni is extra helpful and accommodating. They're on the other side of the property separated by a breezeway and garage, so there is lots of privacy.
We found ourselves wanting to spend the majority of our time at the Tiki Hut itself, it really is a special spot on the island. Can't wait to visit again :)

Our stay at the Tiki Hut was the best vacation! Toni was a great hostess and her place is unbelievably comfortable and beautiful. She had all the beach equipment we needed, plus a fully equipped kitchen. Tunnels beach can’t be beat: scenery, snorkeling, swimming!
Thanks,Toni, for sharing your place. We hope we can return in the future!

Tiki Hut exceeded our expectations! Best place to stay in Kauai! The accommodation's were top notch. Wine in the fridge, fresh fruit and flowers on the counter. The gardens are amazing! The walk to the beach was a quick walk.
Anyone that stays here will be glad they booked the Tiki Hut…it is PARADISE.
