AS SEEN ON TV- Rated #1 Northshore Rental/Retreat with the "Wow" Factor

2. Adjacent to National Wildlife Refuge - See Rare & Endangered Avian Species...All Day, Every Day!
3. One Of The Most Spectacular, Pristine Properties In ALL The Hawaiian Islands With It's Own Private View of Waterfall & Air-Conditioning in ALL Bedrooms
4. Affordable, Multi-Million Dollar Estate - 3 Acres Of Privacy In Lush, Tropical Setting!
5. Location Choice of Hollywood... Nearby Waterfalls Showcased In Harrison Ford's Movie, 'Six Days, Seven Nights' & Jennifer Anniston's 'Just Go With It'.
6. Three Powdery White Sand Beaches Within 5 Minutes...More Within 10 Minutes!

8. Upscale Home With Every Amenity - AC, Flat Screen TV's with Home Theater & Netflix, Gourmet Kitchen, New Tropical Furnishings, and Zen Meditation Garden!!
9. A Wildlife Sanctuary With A Cocktail Hour !

Located on the scenic North shore of Kauai, in Kilauea at the doorstep of the luxurious Princeville Resort lies Hale Mana, a three acre multi-million dollar private estate. Hawaiian for 'house of spiritual awakening' Hale Mana does not disappoint.

This plantation style home is perched high on a volcanic ridge with pristine, 360-degree views of the ocean, valley, mountains, waterfalls and river below. The valley itself is home to numerous ancient 'heiaus' or 'places of worship,' so sacred only the high priests and chieftains were allowed. Back on property you will discover "Kahelelani" or "Stairway To Heaven" where you can picnic, meditate or simply behold the breath taking beauty from this unique observation point 200 feet above the river valley floor. Or chose to relax in the incredibly stunning Zen Meditation Garden. The valley is also home to a National Wildlife Refuge protecting rare and endangered avian species. During the day tropicbirds, frigates, albatross, and nenes circle high above the home as if to form a halo. And at nightfall, under a giant dome of starry wilderness, you can drift off to sleep to the melody of the nearby waterfalls. One of the most unique and pristine properties on the planet - Kauai at its best!

All told, Kauai is NOT the hustle-bustle of Honolulu or the touristy madness of Maui. To visit Kauai and Hale Mana is to travel back in time to a bygone era, to a more peaceful and provincial existence, where words like on-ramps, freeways, and smog have yet to taint the universal consciousness. It’s a sanctuary where skyscrapers are replaced by palm trees and busy intersections with one-lane bridges. And following closely in step are the islands most precious natural resource... its' people. For them, words like community, family and neighbor are still spoken with reverence. Mainlanders call this warm phenomenon the 'Aloha Spirit' and it’s as certain to welcome and embrace you at Hala Mana as are the prevailing trade winds.

Views of Paradise!!

We have stayed at many vacation homes and this one has the most beautiful views we've ever experienced! The pictures really don't do it justice with the lush canyon, river and waterfalls below and ocean view. We were spoiled with a rainbows, one even a double rainbow, from the back deck. Although just minutes from everything, this house feels tucked back in its own private world. Highly recommend!

Slice of paradise

The house is situated adjacent to protected land with a beautiful river canyon and distant ocean views. Birds were abundant and proximity to the lighthouse and snorkeling beaches was fantastic. Most notably was the hospitality Bryanna provided. Her kindness, helpfulness and proactive communication made for a great stay!

Amazing views!

This is a very unique place to stay with incredible views. It has a cascading river with many mini-water falls, a verdant jungle, singing birds, flowering trees and the ocean in the distance. There is a very steep bluff on the property and young children would have to be carefully monitored. My family is eager to return.

Spectactular views

This home sits on a simply extraordinary piece of property - like nothing I have ever experienced before (and I've rented a lot of great properties). I spent hours upon hours just sitting in the backyard, taking the expansive tropical landscape and waterfall. If you love stunning nature views - this home will not disappoint.

I don’t think I can add anything more that has already been said in the reviews. This property is absolutely stunning. As others mention, photos do not and cannot do this home justice. The trees, stream, waterfall, cliff, birds, rainbows, it’s all magic. Every room / window has something interesting and beautiful to look at. It was absolute paradise. The home is well equipped and all interactions with the owner and property manager were great. We received a warm welcome and loved the house tour and information we received from Bryanna. We are so grateful we got to experience this gem.

A week in Paradise

What can i say!!! The pictures on the website were beautiful BUT.. the actual experience even surpassed the website. I have never been on a more tranquil property. Just sitting On the deck overlooking two waterfalls was a meditative experience. The huge bathtub also overlooked the waterfalls. Neil and Barb were wonderful hosts. My whole experience was exhilerating.
