Wonderful stay. Room for everyone, all 8 of us. Proximity to ocean was magical. Labels on everything made functioning in the kitchen easy breezy. Beds comfortable! Highly recommend for relaxing vacation!

We chose this house because of it’s location. You are centrally located to just about everything on the island and its walking distance to Kapaa town. With the bike path right outside the door, it’s an easy 10 minute walk to all the shops and restaurants. From the moment we pulled up in the driveway, we knew this place was going to be special. The grounds are beautifully landscaped and the house itself is very nice. The house is very well stocked. The kitchen has everything you can think of, bathrooms were fully loaded with towels, shampoo, conditioner and soap. Also, in the main living room you can find plenty of games for those nights of just hanging out. If I had to complain about anything though, I would have to say that the lighting in the kitchen at night isn’t great. Also, the stove is electric and the knobs are so worn out you can’t tell which way is high or low. Other than that, everything works just fine. In the laundry room, you can find plenty of beach chairs, beach towels, water shoes, umbrellas, cooler, fishing poles, water toys for the littles and even a couple of small life jackets. We had 6 adults in our party and everyone had their own space. With the main house having 2 bedrooms with attached bathrooms, the Ohana and the apartment over the garage it gave all of us our own little getaways. We didn’t use the loft. I do have to warn whoever sleeps in the primary bedroom though, I hope you like waking up at sunrise everyday.. lol. Because there are no blackout curtains, just sheer ones. So, it’s very bright in the morning. Hearing the waves and taking in the view everyday though, out weighed the brightness. The house doesn’t have AC, but with so many windows and ceiling fans we didn’t need it. The backyard is amazing! Stepping out onto the deck and taking in the scenery was spectacular. We felt like we had our own private beach. I would definitely come fact, I’m already missing it! I h

The moment we stepped into the house it was everything we had hoped for and more…the location, the size of the house was perfect. The fans and ceiling fans were needed and appreciated as they were vital to enjoying our stay. Four generations of our family came together, and the house offered many additional items which came in handy to enhancing our visit. We all enjoyed ourselves, and would love to stay at this property again!!

This truly awesome beachfront property has a stunning main house and two very nice, fully autonomous cottages that can accommodate 9-10 people. The setting allows for large gatherings and yet provides privacy for smaller groups. It also comes with all things you need for days at the beach: beach chairs, towels, cooler, snorkeling gear, etc. The property manager, Heidi, couldn’t have been more welcoming and accommodating to our needs. We highly recommend this vacation spot to any family - or families - looking for a beachfront retreat in Kauai.
Truly, the only downside is the exorbitant fee charged by VRBO for merely providing a platform on which to access such properties!

Our stay at Niulani Lanikai - Kauai Beach House was nothing short of exceptional! The multifamiyvacation home in Kapaa surpassed our expectations, offering a perfect blend of comfort and luxury.
From the moment we stepped in, the breathtaking ocean views captured our attention. The fully equipped kitchen, complete with a dishwasher and oven, made meal preparation a breeze. The attention to detail, from the stylish decor to the cozy bedrooms, truly enhanced our overall experience.
The proximity to attractions like Lydgate State Park and Wailua Falls added an extra layer of convenience, making exploration effortless. The free WiFi ensured we stayed connected, and the thoughtful amenities, including a washing machine and hair dryer, reflected the property's commitment to guest satisfaction.
Adult children appreciated having the privacy of bungalow as well as the apartment above garage. Plenty of towells were availble and large fridge to store family meaks in (fridge could def use uodating, light was out and quite old, but dud fine. Also Very handy to have laundry room accessible to all parts of house. Problem with spin cycle of washing machine. But notified owners Hope they fix
Each day we were there, someone was there maintaining house. Yardwork very early in morning on first day we were there. Woke us all up. Someone fixing the sand bunkers the next day, as well as other maintenance activities day after.
Regardless.. this is the place to stay at in kapa’a.
Beat location.

We recently had the pleasure of staying at Niulani Lanikai with our family of 5. The house is very spacious and sits directly on the ocean. With 3 college age children there was plenty of room for us to spread out, yet the main living / kitchen area was a lovely gathering space for us at night. The outdoor space is gorgeous, we utilized the deck for our Thanksgiving dinner. We had coffee in the morning for sunrise which was amazing. The house was well appointed with everything we needed including beach gear, which was a nice surprise. For our family the location was perfect as we had tours on both the northern and southern parts of the island throughout the week. It was less than an hour drive from everything we did. We also took advantage of paved trail along the ocean that is directly behind the house. It was beautiful for running / walking. Hedi our property manager was lovely, she was very easy to contact and responded to us immediately. I would highly recommend this property, and hope we get the chance to return!

There is no doubt that this home is beautiful. Our problem is this home is hot. All the windows in the front are small that open out. Side and back huge windows, but again no ventilation. Only main source of air flow is back slider that’s off the side of the dinning room. We just assumed that with the beach right there that it would be cooler. Other main issue is all the table tops (side, coffee, dinning) are glass. My 4 year old granddaughter easily broke the coffee table top in the bungalow easily with her mermaid Barbies. The glass was not tempered. Large shards. Yes , we broke it, yes we were charged $250 to replace. But why would you allow non tempered glass in a rental. She sliced her finger. Luckily it was only that.

I had six people in my party and this location was perfect! We had 3 people in the main house, one in the upstairs apartment and 2 more in the detached Ohana. Very clean, everything we needed was available in the kitchen, plenty of towels, beach chairs, snorkel gear and washer and dryer. Sunrise was amazing, incredible views, outstanding location! I highly recommend this location; I will be back for sure.

Perfect home for our vacation. Our family of 9 (grown children and spouses) thoroughly enjoyed this property. Each couple had their own space with a bedroom and bathroom and our 17 year old loved his loft bedroom😊 This house had everything we needed from cooking to beach trips (chairs, towels, umbrella, cooler) it was stocked. We loved watching the sun rise from our ocean view each morning and watching the ocean in the evening was so calming. We actually had a huge seal come and rest on the beach in front of the house one day…so awesome! We loved how central the location was to getting to our Napali tour, kayaking/waterfall hike and visiting Hanalei beach. Lots of cute stores and restaurants close by and the bike/walking path was right out our door. Beds were comfy and the fans kept the house cool (we were worried about no AC, but not a problem at all). Beautiful, comfortable house with a safe neighborhood location.
