Great property and location!
We recently stayed at this charming house in Hanalei and overall had a delightful experience. The location was just perfect - walkable to all the shops and the beach. The house itself was great - very comfortable. Beautiful private yard and large covered lanai with a large dining table to eat outside.
The kitchen was stocked! Anything you need, you will find it! Need a garlic press? There were TWO! I did read another review stating the equipment looked like it was from a thrift shop - and that may be, it was a bit worn, but I was not expecting brand new everything. I loved having the variety - worked perfectly for us as we cooked every night. I also loved that they had a compost bin (we compost at home and I loved the ability to continue my usual habits).
There are 3 bedrooms - the one with 2 twins also has a large desk (was convenient for my husband who had to take a few work calls).
There were a few minor issues - the oven was not super clean and the dishwasher latch did not work, therefore we had to wash most dishes by hand. The furniture could use an upgrade, but most places we have rented in Kauai in this price range are similar. These were not dealbreakers for me and to be fair, I did try to call the property management company to alert them, missed the call back and did not try again. I was enjoying my vacation too much to bother with the small things!
Despite these issues, I would recommend the house and would definitely stay here again!
