Quiet Piece of Paradise
Walking into the gorgeous home you are welcomed by the sounds of beautiful Hawaiian music. This is a fully appointed house that is just pristine. Spices in the cabinet, Maile soaps throughout the property including shampoo and conditioner in each bathroom. Cleaning products under the kitchen sink! Coffee, chocolate covered macadamia nuts, apple bananas and a pineapple were just the most thoughtful snacks after a long trip. The outdoor living space is perfect for a small adult only family. The pool and hot tub were fantastic. Everyday we saw rainbows from the lanai. Walking distance to the shops and restaurants. We are already in the planning stages for next summer. The only negative is no access to a gym, if that is important to you. But hey, it’s vacation, get out for a daily walk, run or hike!! Private and quiet.

Fabulous stay at this beautiful home. The home and guest house has everything you need for a relaxing vacation. Unfortunately, the only negative is you need to drive to the beach. However, the owner provides beach chairs, umbrella and toys everything you need for the beach. Thank you for the wonderful stay. Definitely would love to come back for another stay.

Great stay!
Awesome property. Some minor repairs are needed but overall a great place to stay. If you have an elderly person in your party, there are no hand rails at either entrances to the houses and no hand rail in the pool which would’ve been nice. Didn’t pay attention to the photos so that’s on me.

Perfect!
We are a family of four with two college-age kids. We tend to be pretty picky haha! Honu Hale was a PERFECT home for our Kauai vacation! Great location, including walking to shops and restaurants and a short drive to beaches and more. But most importantly after a day at the beach or hiking or boating it was the perfect oasis to come home to. Gorgeous decor, landscaping, and views allowed us to be completely relaxed. House has all the amenities and the ohuna is a very nice feature! Would 100% stay there again!

Amazing stay in Poipu
We loved our week at the house in Poipu. Everything was clean and stylish and relaxed as advertised. My favorite little details were probably the two grills (pellet and gas) and the hot tub. The back yard is also lush and stunning. Having a separate casita was nice. Our parents slept in that little house, which offered some privacy. The location is perfect. A quick drive to the beach, and a short walk to some shops. I’ve actually stayed at a different house in the same neighborhood before, so I knew what to expect,, and was happy to be back The only two negative marks I can think of are: 1. A new house is being built next door. Some days we woke up to sounds of saws and hammers, or to the worker’s music. 2. We never got the wifi to work from the casita. These were minor issues. I wish we could’ve stayed for longer. Would love to live there in paradise.

Wonderful Property with Killer View
I loved this house. It was super clean, made us feel at home, fabulous backyard that overlooked an amazing forest of beautiful trees, flowers, a lagoon. I could have stayed in that backyard the whole vacation. The living area opened onto the lanai, which made you feel like you were outside even when you were inside. A 5 min car ride took us to Poipu Beach. Perfect location. The kitchen was fully stocked, which made it easy to cook whatever we wanted. Thank you for sharing your home with us. We'll be back. Also, the property managers were very attentive if we had a question or need. I highly recommend this property!!
