Our group of four was returning to Hale Ka Mahina for the second time. We were so happy to come back. Everything was as we remembered only better. Such a beautiful house and conveniently located near the beach and town. Hope to be back soon!

We have used VRBO many times and have to say that this was the best, well-equipped, clean home that we have ever stayed in. It was perfect for 2 couples (ourselves and our daughter and son-in-law) - the bedrooms were perfectly located on either side of the kitchen/living room area and it was a plus that they each had their own bathrooms. The outdoor shower was used multiple times a day and it certainly helped keep any sand out of the house. The kitchen was well-equipped and it was nice to have all newer appliances in working order. We have never seen a rice cooker included, so were pleasantly surprised that this kitchen had one. The beds and pillows were really comfortable (and we're picky sleepers). The bathrooms were very spacious and there was a good stock of soft, different-sized towels. It did get a bit warm in the late afternoons and early evenings, but we got a nice cross-breeze when we left the windows open and fans on. The location is perfect as we only had a little over a block walk to the beach - we toted the wagon, chairs and umbrellas back and forth a couple of time per day, and frequently walked or rode bikes into town for shopping, restaurants and attending the local farmer's market. We especially loved the bakery, getting Dole Whips, and we also had a wonderful dinner at the Postcards Cafe. We really can't say enough about this property - we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning again.

My family and I loved our stay. The house was beautifully designed and well stocked. The walk to Hanalei Bay was only 5 minutes. The view from the lanai could not be beat! Highly recommend!

This was our first time staying in Hanalei, staying in Princeville in the past. We were very happy with our decision, both location and vacation rental! Nearly everything we needed for our trip was provided (bikes, umbrella, beach chairs, wagon, boogie boards, sand toys, beach towels, etc.), and the home was everything we were hoping for as well. -Thank you, Krisha!

We spent 6 days in Hanalei at Mahina. The property is super clean and spacious. Everything is modern and the location is amazing - 5 min walk to the shops on one side and 5 mins to the beach on the other.
Krisha is amazing, between texting her and the information available on their app, it was very easy to get information on what to do and how to do it..
Will definitely come back here the next time we want to visit Hanalei

This place is truly incredible. The location couldn't be better, walk to surf, walk to town, etc. The home is gorgeous and was so clean. Krisha made everything so easy, as did the App. We are already trying to plan a trip back, and I couldn't imagine staying anywhere else in Kauai. I have stayed at several vacation rentals and this was hands down the greatest experience.

We had an absolutely great week in Hanalei at this property. One thing you can never tell from a listing is how comfortable the beds are, and the beds and pillows in this apartment were really comfortable, including the sofa bed. The beach was a short walk away and we sometimes went three times a day. We also walked to town for lunch and dinner. Tunnels is about 15 minutes away, so the location was great. We had views of multiple waterfalls from the porch, and we were treated to rainbows in the evening. The one downside for me is that the property management company wanted to communicate via an app, and I didn't want to download their app. Fortunately, Krisha was really responsive over text and able to recommend boat rentals, rental car, and help with little things like the wifi password. We also really enjoyed the multiple outdoor spaces, especially the front porch.

This property exceeded our expectations. The place was incredibly clean. The beach gear was awesome- sand toys, boogie boards, chairs, snorkels/fins and BIKES! The walk to town is about 5-8 mins from the place which is very convenient. Truly can't be the location. You are a 5 min walk to the beach- an amazing beach too with great surf for kids and the most beautiful sunsets. The views from the house are breathtaking too. The covered patio is perfect for lazy mornings or post beach naps. Great property and we will absolutely stay again. Just 3 small call-outs to consider: 1.) There is no air condition. The house gets hot during the day, but cools off while sleeping. 2.) The outdoor shower is great, but you are exposed while showering (the downstairs neighbor could easily see you). 3.) There is a tenant that is on the bottom floor of the house. Very nice guy. BUT, something to be mindful of if you have children who run around- likely he can hear all the footsteps. So we were extra cautious about this. We will absolutely stay here again.

Our family loved our 1-week stay at this home in Hanalei. We have two young boys (ages 9 and 5) and found this location to be perfect because it was just a short walk to Hanalei town and to the beach. The house was beautiful, clean, and has great views of the surrounding mountains. Krisha, the property manager, was incredibly responsive and made check-in and check-out a breeze. She also had fantastic tips about things to do in the area. And absolutely fantastic property and experience, and we will definitely be back.

This was our 4th visit to Hanalei and Mahina was our favorite hands down. The home was more than spacious for our family of four. The entire home was fantastic and extremely comfortable, great decor and furnishings. We loved all the outdoor lanais and the bikes were perfect for the short ride to the beach or into town. Krisha was extremely helpful and quick to respond to any questions. The gentlemen that lives downstairs was very nice (we hardly even knew he was there). We will definitely be coming back!!!!

We loved our stay. The property is lovely and has everything one could need. Property manager was terrific and responsive! While an "in town" location may have a bit of sound (barking dog, children at play, trucks) it did not bother us. And we enjoyed being able to walk into town and to the beach.

Such a quiet and peaceful place. From the overall design, to the fresh, and comfortable amenities, this is a gem that is perfect for groups big and small. Plenty of space, clean, and has all of the beach gear you need to really enjoy the town. The location is perfect for early AM getaways or long night walks to soak it all in.

I couldn't imagine a better rental for our honeymoon in Hanalei! In fact, this may be the best VRBO I've stayed in to date. The house was perfectly appointed with everything we could need during our stay. Not only was the house spacious, airy, adorable and well-decorated, it came everything we could need for the beach including beach chairs, umbrella, cooler, cruiser bikes and more. My favorite spot was the covered deck where I read every day. My only concern was that it might be too hot without there being AC, but with all the windows open the place aired out and was very cool at night. The location was perfect as well - tucked away from the main road, but walking distance to both the beach and restaurants. If you're planning a trip to Hanalei - stay here!

This stay was to celebrate my Wife’s 40th and what better way to spend it than on Kauai’s north shore and in the jewel Hanalei Bay! The property embraced us in a subtle luxury while providing us great access to beaches walking to town restaurants and proximity to the coastal hiking trails. I would highly recommend this property if you love comfortable beds and many porches to have your sunset cocktail.

This was our second time staying at Hale Ka Mahina and third time to Hanalei in 2 years. We love this rental. The place is spacious and perfect for two couples. Krisha (rental agent) is very responsive to any needs and easy to communicate. You can't meet the proximity to the beach and town. Is perfect for persons wanting to soak up all Hanalei has to offer.

This is our third stay in Mahina. New owners for us this visit and new agent. Krisha, the real estate agent is very helpful and communicative. We had a problem with one of the fans. Texted her and she was able to fix it the same day, even with Hanalei Hill one way and limited hours. Two bedrooms and baths nicely appointed and comfortable beds. Kitchen very nice with ample dishes and cooking pieces. Highly recommend this property. Try AMA restaurant for their noodle and rice bowls.

We had a wonderful stay at Hale Ka Mahina! The location is perfect...close to beach and town and we loved the views of the mountains and the home overall. We did have a bit of trouble finding the house at night upon arrival as it is tucked behind a house off the main street. Overall the property management was super responsive and we would definitely rent this home again.
