Our family of 8 adults and 1 child had a phenomenal time at the King Hale rental property. If you're looking for a remote location, this is it. The view was incredible in both the front and back of the property and the "end of the road" nature of being so far up the north shore really gave this a secluded charm. I'd recommend it even more than being "in town" like Hanalei as long as you adequately stock up on food and drink for your stay. For that, there's a Costco and Target in Lihue that you can stop at with your rental car before the hour-long drive to Wainiha. The house was clean, the property management was courteous, and the check-in and check-out was a breeze. The one small issue, that I'm sure the managers will correct shortly, was that one of the guest bedrooms was missing two sets of blinds and lacked privacy as the lanai went right outside of the bedroom. We remedied this by hanging up blankets. As far as the beach, there are great options just a 2 minute walk up the shore in either direction. Right in front of the property is a tide-pool and pretty snorkeling reef where we saw various sea life like parrotfish, sea cucumbers, rays, and even an eel. I don't often write reviews, but we left this place KNOWING that we booked the right house.

We’ve stayed at places in Kauai before but nothing as amazing as this house. Our family spent 5 days here in March, and were blown away by the amazing views from all rooms, the wide open living areas, and of course, Kauai overall. No real negatives - 3 bedrooms upstairs, 1 downstairs. Great kitchen, well stocked with necessary dishes and appliances for cooking. Stores nearby (10 minute drive) for any food you would need. Overall a wonderful experience - would stay again hands down on this amazing part of the island and in this particular rental!!

We loved King Hale...the house, the property and the location! The main house is wonderful, each of the three bedrooms have amazing views. The bathrooms with their tubs, steam shower and views, are sweet too. The great room that is the kitchen, living room and dining area is so big & open and the huge doors that open along the back and front are incredible - they allow for views of the mountains and ocean and air to flow through the house too! The windows, screens and doors were in pristine condition which is a total benefit - we were able to have the windows and/or doors open all the time to hear the ocean waves! The balcony is AWESOME!! Front and back! The kitchen is fully stocked with items for cooking and eating in. We LOVED being here. The only downside we found is that the gym and the fourth bedroom are not accessible via the inside of the main house (you have to go outside of the main house and enter each separately) and although the 4th bedroom has its own small living space to include a kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, and living area, it is very disappointing compared to the upper main house living space and especially bedrooms. The guests in your group/family that stay in there, do have a lower view of the ocean from the living space, but the bedroom is in the back with no view and is unfortunate. The gym is an added bonus and a nice space to workout in, again though it is only accessible from the outside. The relief map of Kauai hanging in the gym is a really nice & fun added touch, and one that we love - as we have that very same one in our home! King Hale is an amazing place, and we would be lucky to stay here again!! Oh, one more thing -- the stars at night!!! Wow!! Incredible!

We didn't have hot water for the first 3 days of our stay, due to the solar hot water heater not working. The team did their best to get it working asap. Other than that, everything else was excellent. Thank-you, Vy Li

I absolutely loved this home. I felt like it had everything I needed and we created so many amazing memories with our time there! I hope to make this my home away from home whenever I decide to travel to the North Shore. I’m in love with the area, such an easy and beautiful drive into Hanalei, that was so convenient. The home is so quiet and private and listening to the waves all night is something I will miss! They were prompt with any questions or concerns we had, and were accommodating, no complaints here! Thank you.

We couldn't have been happier staying at King Hale. It was perfect for our family of 7. The 3 upstairs bedrooms all had stunning oceanfront views and everyone had their own bathroom. The teenagers loved staying in the downstairs guest house with kitchenette. The kitchen was great and had everything we needed to prepare gourmet meals. We enjoyed stunning sunsets AND sunrises every day. We walked to Tunnels many days for awesome snorkeling (try the middle of the bay) and even though the beach out front is a bit rocky, you can walk a short distance to the right or left to get to lovely beaches for swimming/snorkeling. There is a restaurant at Hanalei Colony Resort (a 5 minute walk) that has great poke and a coffee place. The only trouble we had was a leaky AC unit in the second master but it was cool enough for sleeping without. Hanalei Bay is a 10-15 minute drive. This iconic town offers surfing, restaurants and shopping. The adults ate at Bar Acuda one evening and it was the best meal we've had in a long time. The property host, Kevin, was fantastic—very responsive and helpful. We forgot a suitcase at the property and he graciously retrieved it and helped us get it back promptly. Our family is already planning our next trip to King Hale.

The property is absolutely gorgeous. We were a family ranging in ages from 1-85. Between the upstairs spaces and the downstairs apartment everyone had a place of their own. The power did go out once but Kevin responded quickly. We learned that part of the house runs on solar so the refrigerator and oven came back on pretty quickly. We had a local chef, Thomas Ryan, cooking for us that evening. He just went with the flow... It was one of the best meals I have ever had in an amazing location.

Beautiful house and location our family loves. The beach right in front of us is a shallow reef, and we saw monk seal resting and turtle feeding right up the shore.The house is large enough for our family (8 adults and 2 kids). Loved the spacious Kitchen and living room. Would've liked to have a larger dining table, and the BBQ was a bit old and small for the house. They are doing renovation and couldn't accommodate some of the promised amenities, but Kevin was great at keeping us happy. We are sure to come back soon.

This is a beautiful home with incredible views from all sides of the house. We had our own beach right at our back door. The layout of the house is perfect. The home came with all the appliances you would possibly need. My only complaint is that one room has a pullout bed and I think it should be a full size bed. Some of the blinds were broken. However, it is understandable that replacement parts may take time. There was also a power outage for 20 hours, which we heard was a common occurrence. I think a large, beautiful house like this should have a backup generator. Some of the outdoor furniture also should be replaced. With all this being said, we enjoyed the house and would stay there again.
