Aloha and Welcome to Hale Honu O Hanalei ~ House of the Turtle.
This hidden jewel sits on the ridge above the Hanalei Valley on Kauai's tropical North Shore. Tucked away on a quiet side road, and walking distance to one of the North Shore's best-kept secret beach trails. A simple 1 mile walk and you are at Puu Poa Beach at the gorgeous 1Hotel Hanalei Bay. Our home is outside of the hustle and bustle of Princeville, yet only minutes from gorgeous beaches, hikes, groceries, restaurants, shops, World Class golf courses, historic Hanalei town and more! This bright, simple and classically furnished condo is the perfect retreat and home base for exploring all Kauai has to offer. Perfectly situated in a small community of only 20 townhomes, the vibe is laid back, local and peaceful.
Everything about this townhome gives you a peaceful, easy feeling. You will feel welcomed the moment you enter with a spacious and comfortable living room. The fully equipped kitchen includes a brand New Vitamix, brand new French press and brand new toaster making it easy to prepare tasty meals at home. Right off the kitchen is a brand new stacked front-load washer and dryer.
The private and cozy back lanai is a perfect place for a morning coffee or fresh fruit from the local farmers market. The jungle view offers the sounds of birds and avocados when in season.
Upstairs you will find two tastefully decorated bedrooms ( 1 king/1 queen ), quality linens, along with trade winds and ceiling fans to cool down the days and nights. One bathroom with tub completes.
After dinner enjoy an easy walk to a stunning overlook gazing out on Hanalei Bay and the best sunsets ever. There is a 1 mile walk to Puu Poa beach through a lovely, groomed trail that takes you right down to Hanalei Bay. For the more adventurous you can even cross the Hanalei River and walk the Hanalei Beach or go into town! There are endless walking trails, golf courses, bike paths, hiking trails, and world class tennis courts all in Princeville, and all a walk or short drive away.
Just a short drive down to Hanalei and you can enjoy the historic town, it's quaint shops, local artists, great dining, surf, swim, bike and kayak rentals, smoothie bars and hikes.
And there is no shortage of places to hike on the north shore! The world famous Kalalau Trail of the Napali coast is a 20 min drive along the breathtaking coast to the end of the road at Ke'e beach where the trail begins. Closer still is a little known hike just across the historic Hanalei Bridge and through the taro fields. The views from the top are out of this world!
If you like to surf, the world renowned Hanalei Bay, Kalihiwai and Kahilis are all minutes away on the north shore.
For snorkelers the North Shore's famous Tunnels/Makua beach, Ke'e and Anini Beach are yours to enjoy.
Of course relaxing and doing nothing is great too! Whether you are on a family vacation, romantic holiday, girls getaway, a long term stay in paradise, or an epic surf trip, our home will fulfill your dreams of living the island life in comfort and ease. The entire townhome is yours for your stay!
We even have you covered with beach chairs, boogie boards, beach towels, beach toys, cooler and umbrella.
We invite you to kick off your shoes and make yourself at home. If there is anything we can do to make your stay more comfortable, please don’t hesitate to reach out!
Please note as a previous guest was confused, this condo has a jungle view, not a view of Hanalei Bay.
