About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Wai'oli, by Hanalei Bay, 2B/2BA w/AC; Minute Walk to bay, beach, & town

The Wai'oli, an upscale beach home with AC in the bedrooms is part of a duplex. A short stroll from the beach, granite counters, travertine floors, Hawaiian style furnishings, top line appliances, stainless steel BBQ & outdoor shower in your private back yard await you (Standard & Maximum Occupancy is 4). Cool and relaxing, convenient to all the North Shore beaches. .

A two-minute stroll will bring you to Wai'oli Beach Park in the center of Hanalei Bay. A few blocks away lies the Hanalei town center with eclectic shops, beach toy rentals (masks, boards, kayaks and bicycles), market, fish store and excellent restaurants.

It's all in the neighborhood, and Hanalei is a great neighborhood with a fabulous bay, beautiful mountains, waterfalls and rainbows. These are the best rates in Hanalei for this quality and proximity to the bay.

With all the Hanalei has to offer, well maintained calming space so close to the bay & Hanalei town, this is a fabulous value for a larger group & multi-generational families.

There are 2 bedrooms, one king, 2 twins, and 2 full baths. A hot and cold outside shower for after the beach is a wonderful plus.

Please be aware that when you book this house or any accommodations by the ocean in Hawaii, not on a bluff, you are booking in a tsunami evacuation zone. Evacuation instructions will be in the house and notice of the tsunami evacuation zone will be part of your contract. Also, please know that we cannot accommodate charging of electric vehicles at this property.

Just as others have written, this is a comfortable home with a very well stocked kitchen that is super convenient (1.5 blocks) to the beach. The proximity let us maximize beach time because we could quickly walk over when the rain stopped.

Incredible location!
We had a terrific stay! The location is just amazing--a two minute walk from the beach, right near a wonderful break called Middles, where we loved surfing every day. The hosts were helpful and the yard/outdoor space was even better than it looked in the pictures. The interior wasn't as bright as I expected, based on the pictures, but it was nice and spacious. We hope to stay again!

Hanalai Stay
This 2-bedroom was perfect for 4 adults. The rooms were great and both had AC units, which were much appreciated. The kitchen, dining room and living room were comfortable and spacious. The kitchen was well-stocked with utensils and appliances. The location was great, just a short walk from Pine Trees parking lot and beach. We were very happy here and would definitely come back.

Great spot by the beach
This is a great spot in Hanalei. Walking distance to the beach, we went everyday. Beautiful view of the mountains and waterfalls out the kitchen window. Kitchen was well equipped, we cooked in every night. Outdoor shower was a huge bonus after beach time, and the outdoor grill was great. We will be back for sure.

Terrific home in a beautiful location
We were very pleased with our rental. The house was as advertised - actually a bit nicer! Clean, spacious with a cute yard and easy walk to a spectacular beach. Well located for exploring Kauai. As stated, the A/C is only for the bedrooms, but that was completely adequate. The kitchen was very well appointed and we enjoyed cooking during our stay.

Loved the property and proximity to the beach and Hanalei town. The property is on the highway but it is not loud. The views of the mountains from the front door and kitchen window are spectacular. House was very clean and comfortable. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Great views, quiet stay
A great stay overall. The house is on the smaller side, but very cosy and comfortable (we are a family of 4). It has great views to the mountains with a short walk to the beach. If you are up to for a longer walk, you can get to BigSave and other shops in about 10min (use Weke Rd, as Kuhio Hwy doesn't have a sidewalk in some places).

Clean, great back yard, kitchen has everything you need. Great to AC in the downstairs bedrooms as the breeze just did not go through the living room and kitchen. Fans helped. Parking is easy and very close to town.

Verified traveler

Well-located, pristine, just right!
Spent 4 nights at the property and enjoyed it thoroughly. The highlights: the proximity to the beach and how clean and well-equipped the place was. You can tell the owners manage this property well. I would lean on this place, mainly as a two bedroom (though it does have a loft space, which does lend some flexibility.) All the adults who stayed agreed this was a great value.

My son, daughter and I enjoyed our visit to Kauai tremendously. Our home away from home was perfect ... a very short walk to Hanalei Beach and to the village. The house had everything we needed for cooking, has a very comfortable living area and the sleeping arrangements were perfect for us. Mahalo and Aloha!

Amazing!
This property was wonderful for our two boys (6 and 7) and myself w our nanny. The location couldn’t be better, as you are close to the beach and to town. The kitchen is extremely well stocked with a spacious cooking area and dining room. We really felt like we had room to spread out. We really appreciated the boogie boards and sun chairs that were available for our use. This is a wonderful property and we will definitely be back!

Great location 2 minutes from the best learner waves on earth. The house had everything we needed for our stay. BBQ and outdoor shower were put to good use. Property manager was quick and receptive to a small drain issue, resolved quickly. Good jumping off point for Tunnels, Haena and Ke’e. Perfect and will definitely stay here again if we get lucky enough to come back to the island.

Lovely property within walking distance to the beach. Has A/C in the two bedrooms but not the main living area. Owner has provided 4 fans to help but still quite warm in the main living areas. Property managers are very responsive and helpful and were great helping us when we had unexpected changes in our plans.

Family fun
Loved the location! We were at the beach every day and my kids could easily walk to town. Upstairs room is too hot to be slept in so all three of my kids slept in the downstairs room. Beach toys were great! Only had two rolls of toilet paper in the house, no trash bags and no laundry detergent so that was kind of annoying but I just bought some and left them at the house.
