Hale Ohana - Beautiful 'House of the Family' - Poipu Beach - sleeps 5

Hale Ohana, meaning “family house,” is nestled in a charming residential neighborhood just a 10-minute walk from the stunning crystal-blue waters and sandy beaches of the Poipu Beach Resort area. Enjoy surfing, swimming, bodyboarding, sunbathing, snorkeling, and fun for the whole family.
This is our family home, and our heart is to provide an affordable, welcoming way for ohana from all over the world to experience the beauty and spirit of Kauai. Whether you're a group of 2 or 5, staying for a few days or several weeks, Hale Ohana offers comfort, simplicity, and convenience with fully furnished accommodations. The home comfortably sleeps 2–5 guests and features a newly remodeled kitchen so you can enjoy the comforts of home while surrounded by paradise. Gentle trade winds flow through the house, adding to the relaxed tropical atmosphere of the Garden Isle.
Because we are located in a true residential neighborhood, you’ll experience authentic island living—including nighttime frog songs, friendly neighborhood chickens, and the occasional tropical visitor like a cockroach. These are a natural part of life in Hawaiʻi and a reminder that you are truly staying in the islands, not a resort.
In the backyard, you’ll find a variety of fruit trees—avocado, papaya, ʻulu, and mango—ready to be enjoyed when in season.
Within a short 2–5 minute drive, you can take in breathtaking sunsets, dramatic blowholes, seasonal whale sightings, sea turtles, and the beautiful shoreline of Poipu Beach.
Hale Ohana is especially welcoming for families, with kid-friendly amenities such as sand toys, boogie boards, a portable crib, and plenty of outdoor space to play when you’re not out exploring the island.
A stay at Hale Ohana is designed to create simple, meaningful, and lasting family memories in one of the most beautiful places on earth.
Please note: Hale Ohana is located in a Tsunami Zone. An evacuation map is available on the refrigerator and in the Welcome Binder for your reference.

Comfortable and relaxing stay

Recently we spent a week at Hale Ohana - family and friends. It felt like home! Comfortable and cozy inside with plenty of space, beautiful and relaxing - green! - back yard! Naturally we didn’t spend much time in the house but while being there we didn’t miss anything, all amenities and necessities were present. Close to good food and beautiful beaches , great for snorkeling.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Hale Ohana. The rooms were all spacious and the beds comfy. The kitchen had everything we needed. We loved how close it was to the beach and everything else we wanted to explore in the South and West Shores. I would definitely book here again.

Great property

We were very pleased with our recent stay at Hale Ohana. The place is exactly as advertised, The home is stocked with everything you could need for a great stay, including beach supplies for all! We didn't cook, but if we had, the kitchen was fully stocked with everything you would need. There are plenty of fans and enough air flow to make up for no air conditioning. We could, and did, walk to the beach and some other nice walks from the house. Thanks for a great stay!

Family trip

Family of 4 + Grandma for one week at Hale Ohana. It was so spacious, clean, breezy, and everything for the beach, cooking, and all the misc stuff you forget you need. The lanai and back yard were so relaxing. The neighborhood is really quiet and we appreciated being out of the tourist corridor of condos. Highly recommend for all and hope to return ahain

We had a glorious week on Kauai with our grandchildren. Complete with whales,turtles,seals snorkeling and even surfing on our last day. We came “ home” to Hale Ohana after very full days of fun in the sun. The beach equipment was appreciated and helpful too. We would love to come back.

Perfect location

The house was clean and within walking distance to poipu beach, lots of beach toys and snorkeling stuff. The only problem i had which wasn't even a big deal and probably a user error was getting the code to work on the front door but there was an alternative way to be able to get in by using the garage code. Overall the house was amazing and i would definitely stay here again.

Superbly well appointed house

The host has obviously made every effort to equip the house with everything you need for a care-free stay. The kitchen has high quality cooking essentials. The appliances are new, including a washer and dryer. Furnishing are also high quality and tasteful. There is even a collection of beach and ocean gear. There is a wealth of local information in a three ring binder and several hiking books. The house is nicely decorated with collectibles and other items that add to a comfy feel.If I ever make another trip to Kaua'i I would definitely stay at Hale Ohana again.

Yard full of fruit trees

This house was great for our family of four! The yard had avocado, mango, lime, and breadfruit trees and some were ripe in June. The residential neighborhood was pretty good. The house next door had active construction and a screaming baby with all windows open but stuff like that is to be expected. The A/C window unit in the master bedroom was nice. Other two bedrooms got cool enough to sleep in with all windows open by about 9pm so one of our kids needed to fall asleep in the master bedroom due to time change. Everyone was awakened by roosters by 5:30am since windows were open. Small shady patio out back was nice too. There was a small desk for remote work! We drove to Poipu Beach (cool turtles and monk seals!) but I suppose you could describe it as walkable, although we didn't see more than a couple of people walking. Also within a 10min drive were Brenneckes Beach, Shipwreck Beach, a cool cave, hike along lithified cliffs and turtle sanctuary. No walkable restaurants but kitchen had everything we needed to cook. The owner was very helpful and responsive when we needed something.

Won't stay here again

The home was nice; however, it didn't appear the home was cleaned prior to our arrival. There were stains on the linens. When I searched for A/C, the house came up; however, you have to look at the details to find out that it only has a window unit in the master bedroom, so the house was quite hot. The fan in the LR didn't work. The owner was supposed to have housekeepers come out and no one ever showed up to fix or clean. The German cockroaches were a problem especially when someone woke up to one trying to crawl in his ear. We kept putting the lizards back outside until we realized they were actually eating the cockroaches so we left them alone. The owners were responsive to emails but nothing every got corrected. On the positive side, they had a beautiful patio and yard. It's the only house we stayed in that did not have strict guidelines for departure.

This house was pretty much the perfect size for my wife and two kids. The property was very clean and had all of the amenities listed. Although of note, the listing did state that there was no air conditioning, however there was a window A/C unit in the master bedroom, which was very nice. We stayed in Kauai during the month of August so it was a bit warm in the other parts of the house so just be aware of that.
