Haena Modern Beachfront Hale Elua [1]
Beautiful home in a peaceful location
Reviewed on 2024-12-10 by , Austin, TX United StatesThis was our second visit to the north shore of Kauai and the location of this home could not have been more perfect. We didn’t mind the gorgeous 15 minute drive into Hanalei Bay and enjoyed the solitude and peace this home offered. We had breakfast each morning on the deck overlooking the ocean, leisurely afternoons in the hammock, and lovely walks on the beach to Tunnels for snorkeling. The home itself was gorgeous and well appointed but left some to be desired. Some of cookware and knives were worn out, it was lacking basic amenities we would be accustomed to for a rental of this quality (tea, coffee, sweetener, spices, propane for the grill, had to request olive oil and shampoo/conditioner which our on-island property manager delivered). The air conditioner splits were helpful for warm afternoons but we felt the mattresses were uncomfortable. We found it off putting how it was mentioned many times that after the starter supply of toilet paper etc. was used, we were on our own. Overall, for the cost vs. value, I don’t feel we would return to this particular property and were a bit surprised by Hawaii Life’s property management.

The house and host were wonderful. All of our expectations were exceeded! The house is in immaculate condition and beach access is guaranteed. We'll definitely be back next year!<br/><br/>** If you've ever been to Kauai, then you know the North Shore is the place to be. This house is just about as perfect as it gets for the North Shore **
Beautiful and Private
Reviewed on 2023-07-27 by Morgan B. , Lutz, FL United StatesThere were only 2 issues that could use some attention.
1. The washing machine smelled very strongly of mildew. It needs to be cleaned and serviced. Unfortunately, I think too many renters put sandy towels in there and it wasn't designed to handle that much sand.
2. The hot tub was leaking the entire time. I was told the owner is aware of it but I guess they haven't bothered to do anything about it.
Other than that, the stay was amazing!
This rental home is a wonderful escape from the crowded resort areas. It was very clean, with updated furnishings and appliances. The A/C units worked very well which was needed since it was very hot in July. The views from the patio were gorgeous and the ocean was just a few steps away. <br/><br/>There were only 2 issues that could use some attention. <br/>1.

Amazing!
Reviewed on 2022-08-02 by Kendall C. , Portland, OR USOur family had absolutely the best time staying in this beautiful home! The recent renovations are incredible. Everything has been beautifully done with attention every detail. We all kept mentioning how lucky we felt to be staying there- a lovely respite to come back to after days on the beach or other adventures. We are a family of cooks and bakers, so we thoroughly enjoyed the gorgeous kitchen. It had everything you could need. The main room is lovely and spacious, inviting yoga, reading, napping or watching a movie. We very much hope to come back!
