Description

Tropical breezes, ocean view and sunny white sand beaches make this an ideal vacation rental house. It is furnished in a traditional island style with a fully equipped kitchen. Upstairs is a large ocean-facing master suite with a California King, an adjoining sun-room with two twin beds and a deck with a 180-degree view towards the ocean. Downstairs are two additional bedrooms each with a queen bed and its own bathroom. The kitchen, dining room and central family room offer plenty of space, sunlight and comfort for all.

Centrally located in the quaint 19th century plantation town of Kapaa on the east shore of Kauai, you will find a variety of activities. A beach protected by a barrier reef is within walking distance. This uncrowded beach is called Baby Beach by the locals because of the gentle surf and safety afforded to smaller children. Other beaches of Kapaa offer windsurfing and kite surfing or enjoy the many surfing spots on the east shore of Kauai.

Also, explore Hawaii's amazing sea life by snorkeling and scuba diving or enjoy fishing. Hike the trails of Nounou (the Sleeping Giant), a Forest Reserve that rewards your effort with views of the entire island. Paddle a kayak up Kauai's Wailua River, one of Hawaii's few navigable rivers and explore the famous Fern Grotto, Secret Falls and the canyons of the Wailua River interior. Golfers appreciate being so close to top-ranked Wailua Golf Course. In the evenings, walk to historic Kapaa Town and enjoy local Hawaiian food and a variety of fine restaurants.

The convenient location of Hale Niu allows easy access to the Na Pali Coast, Princeville and charming Hanalei to the North, Poipu Beach to the South and famous Waimea Canyon to the West.

After a busy day, unwind and relax in the private and peaceful setting of Hale Niu. Sit on the spacious veranda of this traditional Hawaiian-style Kauai vacation rental home and watch the coconut trees sway in a soft tropical breeze.

*** Cancellation Policy *** Cancellations require at least a 30 day written or email notice prior to your check-in date for a full refund of your deposit. Notice at least 14 days prior to check in will receive a 50% refund. If less than 14 day notice, the rent, excise tax and reservation processing fee are forfeited. ***

Staying at Hale Niu? It's great, but have realistic expectations.

The property is a decent size, but looks larger in the photos. The kitchen has everything you need to make full meals. The foldout sofa downstairs has a note that due to rust it cannot be used, but there are still three bedrooms and a total of one king, two queens and two twin beds throughout the house. The pillows and mattresses are VERY firm. The shower in the master is smaller than I expected. The carpet needs to be replaced. There was food trash under the bed in the master. The sliding door in the kitchen does not open fully. That said, the place is spacious and beautiful and it is very close to the beach. You can see the ocean behind the house across the street, and right around the corner is the beach. However, the actual beach access point is at least a five minute walk down the street. There is a cement wall and rock barrier that restricts you from walking on the sand for at least a block. You may have to sleep with the windows open if you are used to central air, and you may need to pack ear plugs because Kauai is full of roosters that crow all day and night. The house is for sale, so I understand why not much is being spent on it, though. It's still on paradise and centrally located to a lot that Kauai has to offer. I'd stay there again.

As a family of 8 we preferred to eat most of our meals at home. This house had lots of good cookware.
At the beginning of the oceanside bike trail, we rented bikes for the week and absolutely loved it. This house was perfect for grandparents and grandchildren. Very easy, central location.

We really enjoyed this property, not only is Kapa'a a great central location to the island making it easy to go north, south or west but it is small and pleasant. This house is spacious, clean and uncluttered. It may be dated a bit but it is clean and that is what matters. Most places are dated as it is hard and expensive to get materials to the islands. There are a couple of items needing to be fixed, like the sliding door and a couple of windows but these would not keep from renting again. Having 3 bedrooms w/ 3 bathrooms was key to having 6 adults in the house. The house stays very cool with the fans and louvered windows, being close to the shore allows a lot of cool ocean air to flow in. Having parking was a huge plus too. The home is up for sale, if it were to still be a rental we would look to use it again in the future.

Manager's Response

Mahalo nui loa for your thoughtful review! We're delighted to hear that you Enjoyed your stay and found our property spacious, clean, and well-suited for adult families. We'll certainly address the issues with the sliding door and windows to enhance the experience for future guests. We're glad you appreciated the central location in Kapa'a, making it easy to explore all parts of the island. We would love to welcome you back in the future. Aloha!

Working with Kauai Vacation Rentals was a wonderful experience. The place my Ohana stayed in was lovely, well furnished, ideal location and exactly as described. This was a special experience for my people. Some here for the first time, others as retuning to The Island. For a larger group like ours (10) it was simply excellent.

Great location to access everything on the Island. Two very good swimming beaches within 10 minutes.

This house is in a great central location so one head to Hanalei (north shore) or out west to Waimea Canyon with ease. Close to lots of restaurants, food trucks, beaches and shopping. I loved that there was plenty of parking and no need to worry about finding a spot. Lovely neighborhood and friendly neighbors. The house was fully stocked with plenty kitchen equipment, towels and blankets. BBQ grill was very handy. We stayed with our adult children (& spouses) and having three bathrooms was wonderful. So close to the beach, we got up every morning and walked down to watch the sun rise. The rental company also left us some complimentary tote bags, cooler bags and welcome treats. Overall, we were very pleased and we rent this property again.

A very cozy place in a nice neighborhood just around the corner from a beach walk to town. Several choices of beach along the way, our family spent a lot of time on these. The town is a little funky but nice, great shave ice and poke. House itself could use a little fixing up but we’ll laid out with big yard in front of wide porch and wide kitchen area. The fans were just barely adequate to sleep at nite, house could get a little warm. The rental agency very easy to find and deal with, no hidden fees or runaround.

We had a great time in Kauai. The VRBO was great, plenty of space for all 9 of us. It was a short walk to the beach every morning to watch the sunrise with a cup of coffee and walking distance to the town to shop. The kitchen was fully stocked and the lanai had plenty of seating for everyone. Great place to stay.

We rented Hale Niu an inter generational family vacation. This rental location was a perfect match for us. We had coffee every morning at the sea wall, a 2 minute walk from our house. Watch dolphins and whales every day. Walking distance to grocery stores and other shopping as needed. The walking/bike path along the sea wall was used every day for short and long walks. The home itself, although obviously a little older was clean and had everything we needed. The kitchen was well equipped with dishes etc. It would have been nice to have perhaps have little things like salt and pepper. It was wonderful to have access to lawn chairs, snorkeling equipment, laundry and bbq. The large treed front yard gave us great privacy. KVR service was amazing. Prompt communication before and during our visit. The check in and check out was super easy and efficient. The bbq tank was empty but they were prompt in sending over someone to change it over. The location of Hale Niu was wonderful. Close to the water, and Kapaa is centrally located on the island. Everything on the island can be done on a short excursion.

This property is in a convenient area. It is nicely decorated but showing a lot of wear and tear. There is rust in areas (bathrooms, outside sliding doors) and almost all carpets have large stains. There were many ants everywhere especially in the kitchen and bathrooms. We also found termite excretions by one of the bathrooms that we cleaned several times daily. There was noise from the street and also from the construction next door (which included loud cussing and we have small children). One of the outlets was uncovered with wires hanging out. Management was helpful and responsive.

This property is in a convenient area. It is nicely decorated but showing a lot of wear and tear. There is rust in areas (bathrooms, outside sliding doors) and almost all carpets have large stains. There were many ants everywhere especially in the kitchen and bathrooms. We also found termite excretions by one of the bathrooms that we cleaned several times daily. There was noise from the street and also from the construction next door (which included loud cussing and we have small children). One of the outlets was uncovered with wires hanging out. Management was helpful and responsive.

Hale Nui was everything we were hoping it would be. Amazing location, great lanai, beautiful large lawn for the kids to run around under the palm trees, short walk to the beach, the perfect base from which to explore the north and south/west of the island. Photos are a little older and don’t reflect some newer amenities, so in some ways it’s even better than advertised. Hope to bring the gang back here soon!

Perfect for our family.

House and location were ideal. We had 8 people including two young boys. We were 1 block to ocean and about. 5 minute walk to a beach. Centrally located between the north shore and south shore, we explored the island. Perfect.

First time staying on this side of the island. The location was great. Property description and Pictures are accurate. Although no A/C that did not bother us. Lots of breezes coming thru especially at night. We figured that it was because we were close to the ocean. Peekaboo ocean view. 1 block from local beach. Home located 1 mile from center of Kapaa Town. You can walk along bike/walking path that is parallel to the ocean to get to Kapaa Town. Beautiful and enjoyable walk. 1 mile to Coconut Marketplace in the other direction. Its walkable but along the highway. The home was perfect for our group. The porch and lawn were the favorite parts of the house. Plenty of room to spread out in the house as well. The kitchen was organized a bit odd but we worked with it. Towels galore and beach stuff too. Although the umbrella needs replacing. Everyone we spoke with at the property mgt were so friendly and helpful. It was great we did not have to have a large chore in the exit cleaning. Most places have such specific strict rules of remove bedding etc. This place was easy exit. We were amazed we did not have to run the dishwasher upon exiting or put bedding in bathtub. We would TOTALLY recommend this vacation rental! Families would love the lawn for kids to burn off energy and the beach being so close. Although there is no lifeguard, we feel it is safe enough. Our group was a Hula Halau on Retreat from Washington State and the lawn was perfect for practicing. We met a couple of the neighbors and they were welcoming and friendly and even enjoyed watching us practice. One even invited us to Kauai Beach Resort to listen to music as he is a musician there and invited us to do a impromptu dance there. Best breakfast= Kountry Kitchen. ( Go early as there is always a wait) Dinner=Lemongrass Grill.Shave Ice= Wailua Shave Ice. Safeway, Starbucks, Subway, McDonalds even Ross Dress for Less, in walking distance less than 10 minutes away.
Mahalo Kauai Vacation Rentals. We loved it

I took my family on a bucket-list vacation- 2 grand daughters included. The house was an older, slightly funky, roomy home. We're the type of people who don't need luxury and refinements. Who vacations in Hawaii and spends much time inside when there's so much to do outside? Kapaa is a great area. A paved beach trail runs outside the house. The baby beach was a hit with my grand kids. The property management company was great, and stayed in constant contact about payment,check-in procedures, etc. If I owned a rental home I'd use them myself.

My family -granparents, parents, 2 kids (under 7) rented this home. The location is a short walk to a family beach - perfect for littles! - and a short drive to a beach with a life guard. It's so easy to walk around and there's a great walk/bike path for you to enjoy a stroll on. We had enough space that we could be alone when we wanted and enough space to be together when we wanted! The kitchen is meant for someone who will actually cook - they actually have utensils and bowls and pans! which is so nice because so many places have a bowl, a spatula, and a pan and they call it stocked, when that's not enough for a single person to cook let alone a family! We easily got around the island from this location and we would come back in a heartbeat!

We were very pleased with this truly Hawaiian home. While not as slick and fancy as the newer condos available, it accommodated 7 family and friends very comfortably. It was also moderately priced. There was comfortable seating between the two dining areas, room to watch TV, for which we had no need, and an incredibly stocked kitchen, even for Thanksgiving cooking! We also were entertained by the various mother hens and chicks and other local birdlife. While the ocean views were very narrow, only 1/2 block away was the long walkway along the shore.
Restaurants and shopping are within walking distance and everything we wanted to do was not far away.

This house has plenty of ocean breeze, A/C is not needed. We really enjoyed the lanai, kitchen, and the location. It is very close to the ocean and able to walk to it within a minute. We saw a beautiful and unforgettable sunrise one morning. The coconut trees in front of the house are also beautiful.
There is a walking path for people and bicycle in front of the house. One morning we saw Santa was walking in front of the house. Apparently it is his walking route.
The house is prefect for a family. Beach chairs, a cooler, beach umbrellas, and boogie boards were there for use. The kitchen is well equipped even with a high power blender, rice cooker, and crockpot.

We have stayed at Hale Niu 2 times in the past and have always been very happy with our stay. This time was a bit rough! The first few days we got several flea bites �� while inside the house. And some out in back yard. We NEVER let the cats inside or close to us at any time.
Unfortunately we had issues with the propane going out on us and have it No stove, hot water or clothes dryer more than one time and for over 24hrs at a time!! Which was a bummer as we had meals all ready to cook both times�� Lucy was super nice and tried her best to get things taken care of as fast as she could. Thank you �� things were just not as relaxing As far as house goes this time around.
You guys are great and try to help as fast as possible, thank you for that.

8 of us rented this charming home for ten days. It fit our family with 3 younger kids well. As the photos show it has a tropical feel, comfortable, clean. It is a little dated but we were not paying for glitz. The front yard is huge and great for playing ball. At first we were concerned about no AC but it was fine. There are lots of fans and the breeze is wonderful. The laundry is great. That room has lots of sand toys, boogie boards, beach chairs etc. The kitchen is well equipped. It is just across from the ocean. The beach is not for little kids. You are half way between Poipu in the South and Princeville in the north. Walking distance to shopping and restaurants. We all loved it and would go back. Great value.

A block off the beach this house was perfect for us. Cool breezes blowing through the house were invigorating. Everything useful was provided and working. 
The multi-use path starts right in front of the house and goes several miles North. We walked or bicycled it every day. 
Kapa’a is centrally located between the north shore towns and beaches and those south in Poipu. Perfect for exploring the whole island. 
Enjoyed it a lot.

Hale Niu was the perfect fit for our family, 7 adults and one 4yr old. My wife and I were celebrating our 25yr anniversary, we attended the Luau Kalamaku which was great. We watched the sunrise from the beach across from the house and we kayaked/hiked to the secret falls on Wailua river. We cooked & BBQ'd at the house and we had the Best Shave Ice at Hee Fat General Store several times. We look forward to hopefully visiting Kauai again. Mahalo!
