The property was great for our group of 7 (5 adults, 2 young kids). Within walking distance of a beach, a village store with basics including some fresh produce, beer, and wine. The management company was very responsive to the minor issue we had with trash pickup. All in all a wonderful experience.

I would describe this place as remote but with close neighbors. It is too Dangerous to walk on the road because it is so narrow. If you have a car you can get around just fine. You will be right around the corner from some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. One of the highlights for us was the geckos taking care of any bug problems inside the house. They were so cute and shy. The garden is beautiful and full of all sorts of exotic plants and flowers. Each beach on this side of the island has different fish. Ke-e Beach has the most turtles. It is also home to giant schools of tropical fish just inside the reef. This house will keep you out of the flood zone because it is built on stilts 20 feet off the ground. That’s great in the winter. If nature is your thing, this is the place for you.

It was well-equipped, spacious and a great location

We had a wonderful stay at Wainiha Palms. It was very peaceful and felt like our own little corner of the jungle.

The house was very nice, well equipped and perfect for 6 people

Our family of four stayed here for 3 weeks in July. We really liked our stay! Things we liked the most include the quiet, secluded property with lots of privacy, the great location midway between Hanalei and Ha'ena/Ke'e Beach and close to two of our favorite beaches - Lumahai and Tunnels, the spacious and comfortable house, the beautiful and lush garden, and the screened-in lanai. There were lots of mosquitos so bring your bug spray if you want to hang out outside.

We come to Kauai every summer and usually stay in Princeville. We wanted to try something else and this place was fabulous. We liked it so much that we booked it for next summer!

We stayed at the Wainiha Palms rental property on Kauai.
There were some really lovely things about this house. It was private, spacious, and had a large and useful kitchen. There were 2 king sized beds, one queen sized bed, lots of couches and chairs. The bathrooms were clean. The laundry machines were great. There were beach chairs and umbrellas at the property. Also plenty of towels.

The rental agency was very helpful. We needed a package delivered partway through our trip, and they stayed late at the office so we could pick it up. The trash wasn't picked up 2 weeks in a row, but when we called, someone came and got it the same day.

They also put us in touch with a company that rents children's equipment, and that was very easy. We were able to avoid bringing a pack-and-play, stroller, beach toys, and a pop-up beach tent because we could rent them.

There were a lot of flaws, however, with staying here. Some were controllable, some were not:

- One review of the house mentioned it having air conditioning. It does have 2 portable a/c units. They are not installed, and do not have the accordions to seal the windows or doors. My husband tried to set them up and seal the gaps with pillows, and while they blew cold air, they were not enough to chill the kitchen/living room area. When we tried to use them, we saw the temperature reach 92 degrees one afternoon. The last couple of days we finally set one up in the bedroom so we could sleep and then we didn't want to spend any time in the rest of the house - might as well have gotten a hotel room. The listing does not mention the A/C, so we shouldn't have expected it. Air conditioning was still a primary reason why we chose this rental and we were disappointed.

I’m out of characters but also reviewed this house on vrbo for full notes.

Aweful stressful
Dirty, I ended up with bites all over me.
