4. Affordable, Multi-Million Dollar Estate - 3 Acres Of Privacy In Lush, Tropical Setting!

9. A Wildlife Sanctuary With A Cocktail Hour !

Located on the scenic North shore of Kauai, in Kilauea at the doorstep of the luxurious Princeville Resort lies Hale Mana, a three acre multi-million dollar private estate. Hawaiian for 'house of spiritual awakening' Hale Mana does not disappoint.

This plantation style home is perched high on a volcanic ridge with pristine, 360-degree views of the ocean, valley, mountains, waterfalls and river below. The valley itself is home to numerous ancient 'heiaus' or 'places of worship,' so sacred only the high priests and chieftains were allowed. Back on property you will discover "Kahelelani" or "Stairway To Heaven" where you can picnic, meditate or simply behold the breath taking beauty from this unique observation point 200 feet above the river valley floor. Or chose to relax in the incredibly stunning Zen Meditation Garden. The valley is also home to a National Wildlife Refuge protecting rare and endangered avian species. During the day tropicbirds, frigates, albatross, and nenes circle high above the home as if to form a halo. And at nightfall, under a giant dome of starry wilderness, you can drift off to sleep to the melody of the nearby waterfalls. One of the most unique and pristine properties on the planet - Kauai at its best!

All told, Kauai is NOT the hustle-bustle of Honolulu or the touristy madness of Maui. To visit Kauai and Hale Mana is to travel back in time to a bygone era, to a more peaceful and provincial existence, where words like on-ramps, freeways, and smog have yet to taint the universal consciousness. It’s a sanctuary where skyscrapers are replaced by palm trees and busy intersections with one-lane bridges. And following closely in step are the islands most precious natural resource... its' people. For them, words like community, family and neighbor are still spoken with reverence. Mainlanders call this warm phenomenon the 'Aloha Spirit' and it’s as certain to welcome and embrace you at Hala Mana as are the prevailing trade winds.

Absolutely Fantastic!
This property is just magical. The beauty is outstanding. We spent the majority of our time sitting outside taking it all in. It is beyond relaxing and extremely peaceful. The house and property is just as lovely as the pictures and even better. The hosts are very communicative and helpful. We will be back!

I don’t think I can add anything more that has already been said in the reviews. This property is absolutely stunning. As others mention, photos do not and cannot do this home justice. The trees, stream, waterfall, cliff, birds, rainbows, it’s all magic. Every room / window has something interesting and beautiful to look at. It was absolute paradise. The home is well equipped and all interactions with the owner and property manager were great. We received a warm welcome and loved the house tour and information we received from Bryanna. We are so grateful we got to experience this gem.

Amazing views!
This is a very unique place to stay with incredible views. It has a cascading river with many mini-water falls, a verdant jungle, singing birds, flowering trees and the ocean in the distance. There is a very steep bluff on the property and young children would have to be carefully monitored. My family is eager to return.

Wonderful location
The property location is a little remote but is wonderful and the well appointed house has ample space for our seven adults and an infant. The view down to the river is dramatic and the elevated position of the house gives amazing views to the ocean. We had a great time.

Spectactular views
This home sits on a simply extraordinary piece of property - like nothing I have ever experienced before (and I've rented a lot of great properties). I spent hours upon hours just sitting in the backyard, taking the expansive tropical landscape and waterfall. If you love stunning nature views - this home will not disappoint.

A week in Paradise
What can i say!!! The pictures on the website were beautiful BUT.. the actual experience even surpassed the website. I have never been on a more tranquil property. Just sitting On the deck overlooking two waterfalls was a meditative experience. The huge bathtub also overlooked the waterfalls. Neil and Barb were wonderful hosts. My whole experience was exhilerating.

This has to be one of the most beautiful and picturesque places on earth. Neal was an amazing host and our stay was beyond amazing. Where else can you fade off to sleep to the sound of a stream and waterfall and wake to beautiful views of the ocean. We only wished we had more time. A return is a must for us.

Absolute Paradise IRL, not kidding!!!!
You will absolutely not regret booking this property! If you can afford it, do it! It is the sort of experience and view that at some point could be a place that charges admission to the public, the kind of view you would hike miles to see, but its right outside your door each day and night for you to enjoy the sights and sounds. I was grateful for each step in my and others' lives before me that somehow got me to be able to enjoy this spot. Seriously. Just amazing. Just as pictures cannot do it justice, words won't cut it either. The 3 acres of property are incredibly landscaped and surrounded by the most incredibly stunning tropical views. The floor plan is very spread out, so worked well with parents and two young adults with different sleep schedules. We booked a 10 day stay and were glad to be able to relax and take in the views and sounds on site. The sweet neighbor dog Emma greeted us warmly when out for a stroll. A stray tabby kitty played hard to get except for the very last day when he didn't want us to leave. The toads greeted us on driveway at night (don't touch!). We visited several nice beaches that Neal, the owner, suggested. Enjoyed amazing fruit and baked goods from Farmer's market (get there early!). Great hike on Nepali Coast (shuttle reservations!). Great restaurants close by. Neal was great-easy to reach and greeted us at house upon arrival (and our plane was late!). Very cool he honors his beloved family members on the property...look for that, ask him about it! Two tips for the house-bring cozy lounge wear since it's a little chilly in the mornings, no heat in home, which is not uncommon. If you forget, they have cozy fleece throws in closet in master bath. Also, when using master tub, like I did often, expect it to fill (only) half way and make sure the hot water tank is not being used otherwise. Tank takes another 45 minutes to recharge. 1/2 a tub is plenty of water, just plan for it. Rent this place, you will be amazed!!!! Paradise on earth.

Family getaway
It is very rare that places exceed your expectations but this one did! My wife was recently diagnosed with pancreatic cancer so we wanted to plan a trip where we could spend some quality family time with our adult children and their spouses. We wanted a place that we could just relax and enjoy while the kids went out and did their adventures. Hale Mana was incredible! Our hostess Breanna (I think that was her name) met us at check in and was so pleasant throughout the process. We have recommended this place to anyone that will listen.

Transformative stay
Everything about this property lives up to what other reviewers have already posted. From the moment we checked in with Bryanna everything was perfect. She had great recommendations along with the folder in the house. The location is perfect to be able to visit the island from one side to the other. But beyond that, the house was AMAZING. Pictures do it justice but pictures can't tell you the feeling you get while you are there. The views are beyond stunning. From every corner of the home and the property we were simply awed. The home is a vacation on its own. We didn't feel guilty come home early each day from our outings because the views rivaled much of what we saw. The house had everything we needed - from cooler and snorkeling gear to extra mini fridge for drinks. We loved every minute of this place and are grateful for the stay.

Words are not enough!
We stayed for a week with our family and adult children. The house was great - the views (on all sides) simply cannot be described with words. The pictures in the listing are accurate...but you simply have to experience them for yourself! We spent alot of time just sitting on the porch enjoying the fresh air and views into the canyon! The location was convenient for everything we wanted to do. Neil and Bryanna were super easy to work with and we would for sure stay there again on a return trip!
