About this house rental
If you want a taste of old Hanalei when days were slower, this local-style home is it!. AUNTY LYDIA'S OHANA is a 3-bedroom 1 bath with carport just right for your family vacation. Only 6 houses from the beach and well located to reach all the North Shore's best beaches easily, ALO is about 3 blocks from "downtown" Hanalei. There is a free off-street parking carport with a charcoal BBQ for eating outside & enjoying the mountain and waterfall views (Standard & Maximum Occupancy is 6).
Aunty Lydia's Ohana is a relaxed Hawaiian style home a minute's walk from the center of Hanalei Bay & is probably one of the best values in Hanalei Beach Houses. Surrounded by tropical plants, with a grassy yard surrounding the house on 3 sides.
There is a very functional kitchen enhanced with lovingly stenciled foliage for preparing some of our farmer's market produce and fresh fish from the sea. This room has a pass through to the living room.
The wash house with a washer & dryer is just outside as well as an outside toilet room and a hot & cold shower in the yard.
The house sleeps 6. There is a king bed in the largest bedroom at the back of the house. A queen in the front bedroom and two twins in third bedroom. All bedrooms have their own air conditioners.
Hanalei is famous for its ever-changing mountains; sometimes veiled in thin mist, sometimes obscured in thick clouds, sometimes full of waterfalls, sometimes so sun drenched so that every detail stands out.
Aunty Lydia's is a great place to enjoy the mountains both from the living room windows and from the carport/lanai. Since there is plenty of room to park in front of the house in the yard, many choose this area as the eating & hang out spot. There is an outside table and chairs for al fresco meals.
Not long after our family set this house up as a vacation rental, some of Aunty Lydia's family from the mainland came to Hanalei & were tickled to be able to stay in their Aunty Lydia's house.
While being on Kuhio Highway, (highway in Hanalei meaning 1 lane in each direction with a 25-mile speed limit) the home has a beautiful hedge of tropical foliage separating you from the road. A parking area & the beginning of the yard are in front of the house.
Wai'oli Beach Park is a thin strip of park which is located between the bay front homes and the sand. There are BBQs, tables, shade trees, a bathroom and usually volleyball. This is where you encounter the bay, a minute or so from Aunty Lydia's. When you come home from the beach, there is a hot & cold outside shower to enjoy a freshwater rinse or shower under the stars.
The State of Hawaii requires a rental agreement. The rental agreement has different cancellation policies than VRBO.
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.

We thoroughly shouted our week vacation at Aunty Lydia’s Ohana. We were a family of 6, 4 adults and 2 kids. There was plenty of room for everyone and the 2 outdoor showers were an amazing bonus. The location of the house was perfect, just a short walk to the beach and town. We will definitely return.

Location was perfect for us and our 12 year olds to walk to town and to the beach multiple times a day - the backyard and grill were a great hangout to cook fish we bought from the awesome local fish market. We paddle boarded the river to the ocean and hiked the Napali and drove to other locations on the island for other day trips and adventures! We really enjoyed our stay!!

The house was clean and the kitchen was well-equipped. Location and proximity to town and beach is nice. Unfortunately the WiFi barely worked and there were a lot of rules about where you are allowed to plug in your devices that didn’t really make sense and were rather inconvenient. The host was nice and responsive when we called about an issue with the lights in one of the bathrooms. The stay was a mixed experience overall. The house would be fine if you’re really just using it as a home base and not planning to hang out there a lot.
