About this house rental
Traveling north past Hanalei, you enter the dense jungle and intense blue waters of Kauai's far north shore. There are no words that can describe nature's beauty in this region. Many beaches, including tunnels and ke'e, are in the area. Trail heads for some of the most memorable hikes on earth are nearby. The ocean view from the home is spectacular.
The Wainiha beach house brings you old style Hawaii in a jungle setting with a stream flowing in your back yard. Built in 1963 of Polynesian design, the house was the dream of Peggy Slater, known as the Amelia Earhart of sailing. Waterfalls, rainbows, crashing surf, fragrant flowers and exotic colorful birds will surround you. PLEASE NOTE: If you are sensitive to noise, the home is located on a "slow driving" section of Kuhio Highway which at certain times of the day you can hear the passing cars going over the one lane bridge. Home has high speed wireless internet, phone, cable tv, and full kitchen. Cell service is very spotty at the rental property.
BEACH ACCESS: The beach in front of house that you see in the pictures is NOT accessible. The closest public beach access is 1/4 mile drive either direction from house. Tunnels beach (one of the most scenic beaches in the world is 1/2 mile away.
Bedroom 1 has a King bed. Bedroom 2 has a King bed and Bedroom 3 has a Queen bed. There is A/C in the master bedroom.
PLEASE NOTE: The bedrooms in the home are "railroad style" meaning they run in a row. Keep this in mind as it is more suitable for those not requiring lots of privacy between the bedrooms.

The location is unbelievable. We loved our stay here. Would like to see some modern updates and a bigger shower at this price point. ...But nothing can beat the beauty of the north shore of Kauai and that will always come with a premium for a stunning location. Still 5 stars because it's just so amazing.

Had a good overall stay. House was comfortable and clean and had almost everything we needed. Only problem was lighting. House was so dark inside for me (I have bad eyesight) I had to buy a head lamp to do almost everything, including putting on makeup.

House, beds, living room was very comfortable. View of the ocean from all rooms was very pleasant. Minutes close to beaches, Hanalei for eats and provisions and Napali. Ha'ena area is serene.

Reviewer Comments:
Comfortable and clean. A few outpoints that detracted from a "perfect" experience. It's not really walking distance to the beach, even though it's essentially right across the street. The closest access point is a short drive away. A plus is that it's walking distance to an excellent coffee shop! The three bedrooms are linked, so you have to walk through the 1st to get to the 2nd, and you have to walk through the 1st & 2nd to get to the 3rd. Also, the pocket doors between rooms and between BR and bathrooms are very hard to operate. Be aware you're in a natural environment, so it's not unusual for a few bugs to go scampering about...I suggest keeping you suitcase closed. No instructions for how to operate anything, especially the TV.
