Enjoy the View - Listen to Nature - Hanalei Bay Villa #37

Views, Ocean, Sunset, Mountains, Jungle, Rainbows, Waterfalls, Views and Refreshing Breezes!

Within the Hanalei Bay Villas, this individual family home is 'Haleakamanu' - the house of the birds. It is situated within walking distance of the luxurious Princeville Hotel and its’ renowned Pu’u Poa Beach. It offers spectacular vistas of the mountains surrounding Hanalei Valley and an ocean view of Hanalei Bay across the top of the jungle canopy. It has a Hawaiian 'Sense of Place' - for complete relaxation, yet convenient to all the sights and experiences that the North Shore of Kaua’i has to offer. Enjoy sleeping peacefully to the sounds of the palm trees swaying in the gentle trade winds mixed with the sound of the ocean waves just across the street. By day, sit back; watch the variety of birds that come to visit you, as the splendor of Kauai's daily rainbows unfold above the panoramic vista from the upper lanai. From the lanai you can almost touch the tops of the tropical fruit trees; mango, avocado, guava and java plum. At days end, witness the spectacular sunsets from the famous Bali Hai (Makana Peak) lookout, located right across the street from your own front door and individual parking space. This two-bedroom/2.5-bath, stand-alone villa; has 1250 square feet and is ideal for couples or a family desiring a beautiful setting for a rejuvenating vacation.

Haleakamanu is a two story, free standing home that has been recently renovated with bamboo floors upstairs and new carpeting downstairs. It has been decorated with attention to tropical-style furniture and Hawaiian details. Upstairs is the living area; with a spacious living room, entertainment center and sliding doors to the lanai. Adjacent to the living room is the kitchen and the dining area and both are also open to the wonderful views. Enjoy creating fine culinary delights in the well appointed kitchen. It's well stocked, and ready for your use. Also located upstairs, is a convenient ½-bath and desk with phone and internet access. Downstairs you will find the bedrooms, the remaining baths and the laundry. The large master bedroom suite is comfortably equipped with a queen size bed, dressing alcove and closet, with a full bath and its’ own lanai. It has its’ own TV and telephone. The second bedroom is perfect for additional guests or additional family members, it has two twin beds and an adjacent bathroom with shower. The décor complements the lush garden surroundings. The outside is brought inside by copious windows – on both floors. The windows (forty-two and counting) are open to the light, surrounding views and cool tropical breezes. Both of the bedrooms and the living room have ceiling fans.
When you are looking for adventure, Haleakamanu offers you access to the best activities on Kaua’i. Beach destinations are varied and plentiful. Many are among the top rated beaches in the world and some are hidden treasures. Within walking distance you will find; Pu’u Poa, Hideaways, Kenomene (in front of Pali Ke Kua) and Queen’s Bath. It is a short but scenic drive to beaches of Ke’e, Tunnels, Ha’ena, Lumaha’i, Hanalei Bay, ‘Annini, Kalihiwai and to Secret Beach. Hikers are attracted by the nearby Kalalau Trail and the Na Pali Coast, but the trailhead for the often overlooked Powerline Trail is just a few miles away. The North Shore area offers the many activities listed below; plus it remains within driving distance of all the attractions of Kapa’a, Lihue, the South Shore, and Waimea Canyon (just get back by sunset, if you can!).

Peaceful and beautiful
It’s hard to go wrong in Kauai, but this house has a lovely view of the ocean, the tropical foliage, and the night sky, and is set back from the road, so it’s also quiet. It’s clearly been very well maintained, it’s well supplied, and the hosts were very accommodating. Wonderful place.

Beautiful, comfortable stay
We had such a wonderful stay in Joe and Linda's home. The location is perfect: short walk to multiple beaches and an easy drive to restaurants, groceries, hiking, etc.. The home was in wonderful shape and it was so nice to sit out on the lanai and enjoy the view. Joe and Linda were great hosts, and provided very useful info on things to do. We would stay again in a heartbeat!

Adults Trip - perfect!
My brother and I stayed here with our spouses. This was a perfect spot since we like to cook our own meals. The kitchen was well equipped and the lanai made for a perfect setting to enjoy our meals. This condo is free standing and unlike others has a view of jungle, the bay, and mountains. We prefer this side of the island as it is more jungley and seemed less crowded than the West and South sides.

We stayed here for 4 nights. It's a place to chill and relax. Even though it rains awful lot, it's very restful. The house is in perfect order and very romantic! My husband is glad to have found the 1963 Dr.Who on one of the many streaming channels, which is a bonus of the stay.

Stunning view and lovely home
We loved our stay at Joe and Linda’s villa. It is lovely, well equipped, and beautifully located. It’s also a little more private than the other Hanalei Bay Villas because it’s the last one on the row. We wish we could stay longer. It can get quite hot inside in the afternoon, but we found extra fans to cool us down when we needed it. I’m soaking in one last magnificent view on the lanai as I write this review. So glorious!!!

Perfect!
The cottage was perfect for my son and I. I was so comfortable and love everyminute of my stay. I arrived in the dark and had a bit of trouble seeing the house number and I ended up in the wrong parking spot because that was also hard to see in the dark. Other than that I have absolutely no complaints.

Joe and Linda were gracious and kind hosts with a beautiful home. We thoroughly enjoyed everything about the home - location, room, cleanliness - the home had everything you could need or hope for. Joe and Linda made the process easy and comfortable. The view from the lanai was incredible, and proximity to beaches amazing.

Great views and sunsets!
Great views of the bay right off of the balcony and simply walk across the street for great views of the sunset! The property was setback ~100ft away from the street, so it was very peaceful without any noise from the road to ruin your vacation. The property is 2 stories with the bedrooms downstairs and the common areas upstairs. Very secluded, when looking out onto the balcony felt like I was in a jungle, with a great deal of foliage and birds nearby. Was nicely appointed with all of the amenities, it even had a stereo system with several Hawaiian music CDs to get you in the mood. Great property, hope to return soon!

Nestled in Paradise
Joe and Linda own the perfect spot.... Surrounded by vegetation, set off the road, bathed in speckled light and nature sounds. We walked to Pu'u Poa and Kenomene beaches, spent the better part of the day watching the kids learn to body board at Kalihiwai, the perfect beach cradled against the northern coast where the river joins the ocean. We loved the Shaka guided tours app to explore Waimea Canyon and Na Pali, and Captain Andy's was a real trip highlight. The kitchen and living room had everything we possibly needed, and the home was a perfect landing for our family. Mahalo!

About the host

Hosted by Joe and Linda Bird

Host profile image
Our aloha for all things Hawaiian began as we listened to the stories of our kapuna (elders). They told us of their trips to Hawai'i and the beauty the aina (land). They described the sweeping views, mauka (mountain) and makai (sea), lush tropical vegetation and the warm, gentle climate. On our own first trip to the islands in 1969, we found all that and much more. We found even greater beauty in the people of Hawai'i. As the opportunities came to connect with them, their culture, mele (song) and hula (dance), we were led to discover the true meaning of Aloha.

Why they chose this property

We chose the North Shore of Kaua'i because of its' great climate and its' access to the water. When we first came to Hawai'i, it was to coach Water Polo teams entered in tournaments on O'ahu. Years later the purpose was to participate in the Ironman Triathlon in Kona. We have swam, snorkeled, paddled, body surfed, lifeguarded, taught and coached swimmers of all ages for decades. For us, now, the North Shore of Kaua'i was the best possible spot for us to maintain our connection with the water.

We chose our home in the Hanalei Bay Villas because of the views (mountain, jungle and sea) and because of its' privacy and serenity. It has a Hawaiian sense of place. To preserve this place is our kuleana (responsibility). We truly enjoy sharing this makana (gift) of aloha with our guests. Many of them describe its' mystical qualities of the place, its' healing power, spiritual sense and meditative tranquility. It is definitely a place where one remain in the moment. And yet, be in the water within a short walk.

What makes this property unique

We enjoy being at home in Kaua'i. The simple routines of the day, like going to the market, are a pleasure, enhanced by the climate and the surrounding beauty. We also enjoy exploring everything else the Island has to offer. In September we had the opportunity to paddle the Napali Coast, with Kayaks Kaua'i out of Hanalei. The trip took all day, including the shuttle ride back from Polihale and was a great adventure. From one extreme to the other, for us it is all good!
