august 2026 family vacation

We stayed a week here in August. The house was wonderful. Spacious, clean and in a great location.
Short walk to the beach and town. Also equipped with tons of beach toys, boggie boards, surf-boards, chairs and umbrella which made the beach days very enjoyable.

hanalei haven

We loved our stay in Hanalei! Holly was an amazing host! Super friendly and very helpful! This is an older home in a fantastic location. One minute walk to the beach and 5 minute walk into town. Lovely part of the beach with very few people. We had 5 adults and 1 child and the home accommodated us easily. The front of the house gets quite warm in the afternoon but there is a back porch that has a beautiful view of the mountains and was very comfortable as an alternative. There are ceiling fans in all rooms which was very helpful but the house would be improved with air conditioning. I dont think this is common in the area but it would help. Overall an amazing stay in a perfect location. And shoutout to Holly for being a wonderful host!

wonderful home, 2 minute walk from the beach

we adored our stay at the watson house!! The home itself is spacious and well stocked. the backyard has breath taking views and plenty of room
for littles to run around. it is a quick 2 minute walk to Hanalei Bay and about 5 minute walk from the shops. It has an outdoor shower they was perfect for kids to rinse off before coming into the house. we appreciated how easy it was to drop off/pick up keys, as the office is very close to the airport. We cannot wait to return and absolutely will be looking to rent the Watson house again!!

family vacation

This rental accommodated a whole bunch of people in comfort and privacy. The kids crossed the street to get to the beach access path. Lack of air conditioning was not a problem.The staff at KVRRE could not have been better: pleasant, informative, accessible - and patient!

everything was perfect!

The house was perfect, great location, they had everything you would need to take to the beach, and then some. So appreciative of everything the Watson Home had to offer. We loved the lanai and enjoyed the mountain views and all the birds, even the bird seed! Kauai Vacation Rentals made the whole process super easy with checking in and out and setting everything up before hand. Highly recommend them and this home. Would stay there again if I return to Hanalei with a group of 6-8!
