Hanalei Beach House Guest Comments

“ We absolutely loved staying at your house. It was so easy to just walk to the beach to go for an early morning run or quick surfing adventure. Your house is beautiful & views are fantastic. Plus, you have thought of everything...from a fully stocked kitchen to plenty of beach toys. We couldn't have asked for more for our honeymoon. We hope to be back & are so sad to be leaving back to Chicago. Thanks for everything! ” Savi & Jay

“ What a beautiful little piece of Kauai Pie the Hanalei Beach House is!! This has been one of the nicest stays we have had on the island. Thank you for having all the necessities a warm house has to offer. Great views, beautiful beach front - perfect swimming!! ” Estela, Anita & Makia
Los Angeles CA

“ The colors you have so thoughtfully chosen for this house bring such warmth and coziness and not only that, they make everybody look great. Nanci, your artwork is wonderful! Being that if I am trying to become a more organized person, I certainly picked up some great tips here. I don't think I've ever been in such functional house. Loved it.
The last time we stayed in Kauai it was constant schlep. This time we never wanted to leave. My morning walks were incredible, seeing my husband Fred and son Leo fishing on the pier was awesome and swimming with my daughter Carly as we watched the rain come and go was like living in a dream and we were lucky the dream ended with a rainbow.
We feel so blessed to have found this place and hope we will get to come back sooner than later. Love and peace. ” Melanie, Fred, Carly and Leo

“ Dear Nathan & Nanci
We loved the house and all of your thoughtful detailed touches. Your home is beautiful! We celebrated two birthdays here, swam with whales, enjoyed Bubba's, shaved ice, surfing pavilions, stand up paddling and of course our nightly beach bonfires. We are sad to go - back to 2 feet of snow!
Mahalo! ” Kathy, Bill, Hazel & Megan

“ I can't believe it's already over. I didn't realize that a week could go by so quickly. It's been an amazing week in a perfect beach setting. Golf at Poipu Bay, Wailea Muni & Princeville was incredible. The Priceville course showed why it's perennnially one of the best courses in the world. Worth every penny! As for the accommodations, simply perfect. Forty-nine steps to the beach...are you kidding? Thanks for letting us share in the fun of living on Hanalei Bay...even if it was only for an all-to-short week. All the best!
P.S. The outdoor shower rocks! ” Todd
