We loved staying at Kainalu! It was very clean, had everything we needed, and it was close to both town and the beach. Liz was a very helpful and informative host.

This is our second stay at this property we have already booked it for next June 2025. This property is amazing. It is in a very quiet neighborhood cul-de-sac. There are three separate bedrooms with two adjoining bathrooms and a freestanding bathroom an amazing kitchen with a fantastic stove A wrap around lanai where you can sit. and enjoy evenings, al fresco I highly recommend this property it is even better than advertised. You will not be disappointed a perfect island getaway.

We had such a nice stay at this house. The house is so beautiful and well taken care of (pictures don't do it justice!). They promptly answered questions and were able to deliver a pack n play for our daughter prior to our arrival. The yard is well kept and has gorgeous views. The best part was the location. It is within walking distance from the town and beach (and the house has plenty of beach supplies). We had plans to go to other parts of Kauai during our stay but ended up staying put after seeing how amazing this place was. We love Hanalei and have visited the town before but it was our first time getting to stay in the town. We will be staying here again and will be encouraging anyone we know going to Kauai to stay here as well!

Absolutely wonderful home for our family to enjoy ten days in Paradise. Every detail in this home is perfect. Having the outdoor shower was a huge bonus each day returning from the beach. Loved having the bicycles available for our use. Location can't be beat. All in All, Kainalu is a special home. This was our 49th time to land in Lihue and stay on the north shore, but it was the first for our new grandson, so we are starting a third generation of Hanalei worshippers!

The photo on Vrbo is misleading. the property is on a cul'de'sac backs on to the shops with no grass area. The main issue is the home next door is under full re-construction work starts at 6:30am and finishes around 4:00pm this should be explained in the rental contract of on the site or the property priced accordingly derring the construction period.

The home had everything we needed. It was clean and really nice in a pretty neighborhood. We very much enjoyed our time here. It was a very easy walk (1 block) for restaurants and shops and an easy walk to Hanalei bay... such a beautiful beach. The house was well equipped for cooking. It also had beach towels/chairs/toys and bicycles. An outdoor shower and laundry also were helpful after coming home from the beach. The host was also very friendly and responsive.

This home was the perfect location for our Hanalei experience. it is a 2 minute walk to the best spots here!
You don't need a thing for the beach they have you covered with bikes, beach toys, surf board etc! we cannot wait to return to enjoy coffee on the wraparound porch and listen to the nature around us with sunrise again!

I rated the accuracy of the online description a 4 only because its better in person than the photos show. Not sure how you could find a better house for what we needed. Great layout, nice big private bedrooms with bathrooms and convenient location to beach and town. Highly recommend!

This property is definitely a jewel. The kitchen was nicely updated and fully stocked. My husband and our adult married children stayed the week of Labor Day weekend. We rode the bikes quite a bit to the beach and store. It was nice to have equal bathrooms to bedrooms. The house is conveniently located to town and the beach. We never heard loud music like other reviews mentioned. The host was very helpful and prompt when I had questions. My only hesitation for future reservations would be the no refund so far out and lack of A/C in secondary bedrooms and gathering space. It was very hot while we were there and we were pretty uncomfortable. That being said, we live in a dry climate so I’m sure it’s harder on us than most people. Mahalo!

Hawaiian style home comfortably furnished in the quaint little town of Hanalei. Loved the wrap around deck with comfy seating and the big ole tub in the master bath (big enough for 2 ;-). Those that like central air dialed down to frigid will not appreciate that only the main bedroom has a window unit air conditioner. We loved it and felt like we were staying in a friend's home. Loved being able to walk to restaurants, shopping, grocery store and of course the world's most beautiful beach, Hanalei Bay. Highly recommend!
