Na Hoku; upstairs oceanfront unit just steps to town and Hanalei Bay beach!

Na Hoku is the upstairs of a beach house duplex. There are two bedrooms, one bath, a kitchen, dining area and living room. There is a good sized covered lanai and great ocean views from the living room and the lanai. Just walk down the stairs from the lanai onto the grass & walk to the beach in front. Standard occupancy is 4.

Na Hoku, The upstairs Beach House is great for easy access. No steps between your bed and the sand! It has a cool relaxed feel. Hanalei town with its and restaurants & stores are only about 4 - 5 blocks away.

There is a King in the first bedroom with a flat screen. Twins in the second bedroom for another couple or single friends. If you are two couples, the twins can be made up as a King. There is an ottoman that becomes a twin bed in the living room. (Listed rate is for the standard occupancy of 4, but home can accommodate up to 5. Extra guest fee beyond four is $20/night + tax per person. This fee is collected after booking. Only one extra guest is allowed.)

This is not a great house for energetic kids unless you are renting the downstairs, Keone, also. The floor is not well insulated for sound. You want to be considerate of the folks below and you don't want to spend all your time monitoring your children.

Your lanai is a great spot for lounging, lunch, or anytime. Some of our guests get a pretty cloth & cover the picnic table on the grass in front of the lanai for dinner and set a bunch of flowers on it. With others the lanai is home to sand toys and surf boards.

Just walk past the palms & ironwoods to the sand. If you've has enough sun, but not enough beach, under the trees is where you will be. Great place for reading or Scrabble. There are beach chairs for your use.

There is a combined tub shower as well an outdoor hot & cold shower on the wash house.

Not all of vacation life is with out some slight toil. If you need to wash clothes, there are 2 sets of coin op washer & dryer in a cute little building just steps away.

You never know what you will see on the beach. Many people come here to get married, renew vows, celebrate anniversaries, birthdays, even to get baptized! Canoe races, surfers, kite surfers, fishermen, volleyball players. Even with all this activity, most people experience the beach with fewer people on it than they could have dreamed. If you want action go out to the beach and head right. If you want space, go left toward the river mouth.

If you are our guests at Na Hoku, you will enjoy, sun, rain, surf, rainbows, and a great little town set in a fabulously beautiful location.

Please be aware that when you book this house or any accommodations by the ocean in Hawaii, not on a bluff, you are booking in a tsunami evacuation zone. Evacuation instructions will be in the house and notice of the tsunami evacuation zone will be part of your contract. Also please know that we cannot accommodate charging of electric vehicles at this property at this time.

Location! Location! Location!

Location cannot be beat. Just steps to Hanalei Beach, and less than 1 mile into town. The Hanalei Pier is only a 20 min walk along the beach. The house itself is nothing fancy, but the views and location are incredible. Huge open front lawn is perfect for kids to run and play. My 13, 10, and 7 year old boys had a blast. Would come back in a heartbeat.

Fantastic location right across the lawn from the beach. Stunning views from the porch. It is an old classic pine and plywood construction, nothing fancy, but extremely clean and well-provisioned. People downstairs had a 1 year old and it wasn’t too loud. There’s a laundry hut that was very convenient and an outdoor shower. We will absolutely book here again!

Great beach cottage

The location of this property cannot be beat. Beautiful views, right on the beach with a huge grassy area in front. Great for kids to play. Very relaxing to sit on the wonderful deck and enjoy coffee, meals, reading and just about anything. Walkable to town or a very quick drive. The apartment itself is very clean but a little tired. It also very basic. No AC and the bedrooms get hot in afternoon sun. Also no curtains so there is a lot of light. Bring your sleep mask if you are sensitive to light. No dishwasher. It was, however very relaxing to stay here and we’d like to come back to this area. We enjoyed the Nepali coast catamaran tour. The pick up point is just a two minute drive away. Also enjoyed Postcards restaurant for a special meal. Lots of fun taking a ukulele lesson at Hanalei strings. All in all, it was wonderful stay.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great beach house. Clean and comfortable, with a stunning view and easy sandy beach access. Not fancy, and that feels so right. We could not imagine a better setting for Hanalei. We ate out at restaurants, but preferred cooking in our well stocked kitchen and eating on the porch. There is a downstairs unit that looked good, too. There is a laundry hut with a nice outdoor show next to it for wet clothes and people. Communication with host was great. We will be back!

Probably the best place on Kaua'i

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was our third stay at this property since we enjoyed it for our honeymoon in 1999. Though Hanalei changed over the past 25 years, Na Hoku is still the place we dream of - quiet, well maintained, fully equipped, great views, spacious. Nothing can beat a freshly cooked candlelight dinner on their lanai. To us simply the best place to stay on Kaua'i.
