Great Cottage Getaway in Waimea

Our stay in this cottage was quite delightful. It was very clean when we arrived and very well stocked with everything we needed - right down to brand new beach chairs that arrived while we were there. The bakyard patio and yard were delightful. Highly recommend this place for a great stay.

Great place!

The house was great! Loved the proximity to the beach and central Waimea. The kitchen had everything needed. Beds were comfy, onsite laundry is really helpful and the a/c was great. Having extras like a day trip cooler and ice pack in the freezer really came in handy. A couple of recommendations. A couple of extra blankets in the house would be helpful. One of the beach chairs was quite damaged when we opened it up. Overall we had a great experience! Thank you!

wonderful quiet spot by the canyon

the property was just as advertised! so comfortable. and so nice to have a backyard to hang out in. the outdoor tub and shower were a dream!!! the beach next to the pier wasn’t really the best for walking, i’d suggest driving a few mins down the road to other beaches

Perfect

This house was perfect for us. The house is clean & inviting. The kitchen is stocked well. The bed was unbelievably comfortable. The enclosed back yard was ideal for a night under the stars & the outdoor tub, shower was just an added perk. The close proximity to the wranglers steakhouse, beach, pier and being able to watch the sunset just steps away from the house was amazing. We will be back.

Waimea Getaway

This a great place in Downtown Waimea. If you are planning and doing a few activities on the west side. Waimea Canyon, Kokee S.P. etc. Napoli Coast Boating, Salt Ponds, etc. This is the best location. Walking distance to anything you need and fantastic sunsets on the beach or pier. Also very little tourists. Very Chill. You cannot swim on the beach! Rip curl and Sharks. Just don't. Locals were all very friendly.

Loved everything about it!

This little cottage was perfect for my friend and I to take a girls trip to Kauai. We both love to hike and to explore the outdoors, so the location was perfect. The beach was right across the street, so we sat on the beach with our wine and the beach chairs provided. I would definitely stay here again.

Quaint beach cottage nicely updated steps to beach

Loved this place! This is what you think of when you say beach cottage. Really comfortable furnishings and tastefully updated. Came with everything we needed like a cooler, beach chairs, etc. the outdoor space was private and serene. The grill and outdoor shower making it even better. Steps to black sand walkable beach and pier. We had zero issues with unhoused people or the restaurant next door. As some people mention in reviews. We felt safe and relaxed and would love to stay here again.

Terrible Location, Nice Place

I re read reviews and no one mentions the location so I’ll start there. Waimea is a cute, rural Hawaiian town. It’s very touristy and local at the same time. It’s not what you’d expect when envisioning your Hawaiian getaway but it was nice to see real Hawaii. That being said, the beach that is steps away had several homeless people there, and less than a football fields away from the place is where they likely slept. The beach is disgusting and given it’s so close to the riverbed completely dirty. Good for fishing but not to enter the water or watch the sunset or anything like that. Fortunately there are several beaches close by.The place itself is nice, and if you are there to get out and see Hawaii it’s a good place to stay. The outside shower was a nice bonus, and the accommodations were perfect in the unit. Beds were comfy too. We were delayed by two hours to check in but the lady cleaning was super nice and had a lot of recommendations. I think the delay was because there was a group there for a long time before our two days.

A magnificent stay

The house was perfect, the beds were great. The major highlight for us was the outside oasis. The yard was so peaceful and the outside shower was glorious. However the biggest joy was the beach for sunset. We made sure to enjoy sunset every night we stayed. Thank you for having us!

Waimea Beach Cottage

Our stay at Waimea Beach cottage was very nice. The hosts provided a helpful book with information, essentials (tp, soap, shampoo, conditioner, towels, sheets) they also provided some beach items (towels, chairs, boogie boards). The kitchen had what we needed to make meals. The outdoor shower was very convenient especially for beach days. The backyard was very spacious and had a cozy covered sitting area. We had various wildlife around the cottage: roosters, chickens, cats, pigs. We were woken up at various times at night and early morning to the sound of roosters sounding off throughout the neighborhood.The grocery store is only a block away, that was a plus. Overall we enjoyed our stay at Waimea Beach Cottage.Thank you for having us!Mahalo!

A short stay in Kauai

My friends and I loved this house. The house provided us with a clean and comfortable place to stay after our adventures on island. The house was located near a grocery store, cafes, shops, and restaurants. We wanted to stay away from the resorts and this was just what we were looking for. The backyard was out of this world. Also be prepared to meet some of the neighborhood cats and chickens, all of which are very friendly.

Perfect beach cottage!

What an incredible little VRBO! such an amazing location to cute little Waimea town with shops (including one where you can pick your coconut to drink out of!), Thai food, tacos, and more! the property itself is so nice, you may never want to leave! The backyard is big and beautiful, with an amazing outdoor shower and tub, patio area, and games. there was beach gear of every kind, and everything you need in the kitchen (including coffee!). they had bug spray, hand sanitizer - and what was really awesome for us - HIKING POLES! This saved our life when hiking up in Waimea, which is just 25 minutes away on an easy paved road.wish we could’ve stayed longer- would love to come back on another trip to Kauai!!

Top notch small town cottage

The property checked almost all of our boxes. The kitchen was very clean, the living room was cozy, and the backyard was a perfect get away. You can hear the ocean from the front porch and backyard to offer that peaceful relaxation. A few things didn't work but there was plenty of labels to help address most the issues. Overall I would definitely not hesitate to stay there for future visits.

Best Beach Cottage in Waimea

We've just had a two night stay in the beach cottage and it was fantastic! Quiet close to the beach, Wranglers Steakhouse and Jo Jo's Shave Ice! Cottage was great - clean, tidy and had everything we needed for our stay! It was a home away from home! We'll be back!
