The house and location were everything we were hoping for. But some key information regarding the road to the property was not disclosed by Vacasa at the time of booking which unfortunately had an adverse effect on overall quality of our trip.

Can’t beat the location
We’ve stayed here twice already. It’s an unbeatable location with beach access on a pristine quiet beach. It’s next to a river full of palm trees with a jungle look. The property is huge with a large private lawn/garden. The only ding on this listing is that it’s an outdated beach bungalow. It’s overpriced for the accommodations but we still go back because the location is amazing.

The house was so beautiful and full of love. We found a lot of cute dinner decor in the pantry to make our family meals feel a little more special. The lawn was perfect for cartwheels under the sprinklers. And the beach acess was easy and acessable. Thank you for sharing this wonderful space.

We were looking for a place that would accommodate 6 adults and a toddler. This house hit it right on. Loved the location, private beach and how quit it was! Lots of room and space to roam. Don’t worry about snorkel gear they have it along with coolers and a few beach chairs. Great time!

I didn’t want to leave!
The spaciousness of the home was welcoming from the entry and they had Hawaiian music playing and a lovely gift assortment for us with a welcome note that made us all feel special. The walk to the beach is only steps away and between that and the beautifully landscaped yard, I could have stayed there all day. Plenty of kitchen supplies and space for our families needs. We already want to come back to enjoy this home and location more!

Beautiful house and beautiful beach
We loved our stay at Sandcastles. We had plenty of space and privacy for the three couples. We liked the location because it was a short drive to/from the airport and Haneli. The yard was wonderful for sunbathing when it was too windy to sit on the beach. The ocean views were amazing from the house. Be aware that the only spices in the pantry were salt and pepper, but they were well stocked with sunscreen, bug spray, etc. There was plenty of glassware, utensils, dishes, cooking utensils and pots and pans. There were plenty of beach paraphernalia downstairs in the room by the door to the beach, which also included another refrigerator.

Sand Castles
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sand Castle.! The ocean view and easy access to the beach enhanced our whole stay! Sitting in the hot tub with a cup of coffee in the morning or a glass of wine in the evening was great. We took walks on the beach most mornings and even by moonlight one evening. Salt Pond Beach on the South shore was a favorite. Waimea Canyon hike was stunning. The food at Sushi Bushido was so good! Princeville and Hanalei Bay were so much fun to explore. So many things to do and see!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our vacation stay here at Sandcastles was fabulous. The house was clean and the view was amazing. Perfect for our family. Our only complaint was that the grounds crews were there everyday so this made it hard to enjoy the beautiful lawn and garden. I would suggest putting blinds on the bathrooms if this is the norm. Trying to find a time to shower without the crew right outside your window was a little tough.

Seclusion in Paradise
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house and grounds are well-kept and clean. Ocean views out one side and mountain views out the other. Being at the end of a dead end road there was very little traffic - something that cannot be said for the rest of the island. The house stays reasonably cool as long as the trade winds are blowing. There is no air conditioning but plenty of fans. One review said the house was musty but I'm pretty sensitive to mold/mildew smells and had no issues. The roosters may wake you up but if you've ever been to Kauai you know that's part of the island no matter where you are. The location worked well for us as we wanted to see all of the island. It's about an hour drive to Kalalau on the north and 1-1/2 to the canyon. Traffic through Kapaa can be slow during rush hour but the bypass helps. Would love to return when the piggy bank fills back up.

Sandcastles by the Sea
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Sandcastles was better than the description and pictures on the website, it was more than we expected. The property was very clean and the grounds were well maintained and beautiful. Bali Hai was incredible to work with, attentive to our needs, polite and professional. We would highly recommend this property. We went for a family vacation and it could not have been better. We had many plans for things to do on the island but opted out of some to have more time at the house. The beach was awesome and where we spent most of our time. The only time we saw other people was early in the morning as they were walking, had it to ourselves pretty much the whole time. We loved the big yard, played many yard games and the kids loved to race to the gazebo. It could not have been more memorable for our family. The location of this property is great, central to most everything we did while there. Will definitely keep this one on our list to revisit. We give it five stars in all catagories. Thank you to Bali Hai Vacation Rentals for all your attention to detail so that our family could enjoy our time together in comfort and serenity.

Paradise!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My wife & I stayed at Sandcastles with our family; 7 adults, + 2 grandchildren ages 1 & 4. Sandcastles exceeded our expectations. It’s a very comfortable home. Its spaciousness afforded tons of room for everyone. The kitchen is well equipped. The floor plan creates ocean views from every room. The high vaulted ceilings add to the feeling of spaciousness. The deck that surrounds the home features a hot tub. The mud room downstairs contains plenty of snorkeling gear, boogie boards, beach chairs, & toys for the kids. There’s even fishing gear if one is interested in casting a line in the surf. The tiled space on the ground level below the house is a great feature. It was a cool place to hang out and enjoy the beautiful grounds that surround the home, which are very well maintained, & only add to the sense of luxury one feels at Sandcastles. The private beach is just steps away. We didn’t swim at this beach as it was a bit rough & wild during our stay in late January; early February. But beautiful Anahola Beach is just up the road 8/10’s of a mile. Anahola Beach proved to be our favorite beach on the island. It’s mostly frequented by locals who bring their families to play on the beach & the Anahola River that enters the sea here. This is a fantastic place for the family to hang out for the day. Further up the beach is Anahola Beach Park, which has the usual park amenities plus a lifeguard. As the property is located at the very end of a dead-end road guests are afforded tons of privacy; No traffic-No tourist. One feels like they have all of Kauai to themselves. The location is also convenient to Kapaa, a nice laidback tourist type town with plenty of restaurants, shops, & other tourists’ attractions. We highly recommend Sandcastles. It felt like our home in paradise. It should also be noted that the property manager, Bali Hai & Lisa were attentive to even our smallest needs. They made sure our stay was one to remember. We can’t wait t

Beautiful sunrises
Beautiful sunrises. On isolated private beach. Large spacious home. Very clean and beds very comfortable Responsive management in Daniel House is a bit tired. Things breaking down, ie screens, appliances. Furniture comfortable but showing some age. 15-20 minute drive to Kapaa and 30 to Princeville. So plan on cooking at home. Kitchen well stocked with utensils, pots and pans.. but not spices or food basics. For Restaurant reservations plan 30 days or more.
