"The whole experience was amazing. Location was great as was our host. We will return."

"Beautiful view. I can't say that enough, it has an amazing view. High top in a valley surrounded by lush tropical palms and trees. Birds flying through. Bordered by high green mountain all around. The lanai is large. The house is small only one bedroom, perfect for a couple. Not high end but very nice and cozy. It is away from the crowds a tourists. It is deep into north coast of Kauai. "

"Just book it! This place is incredible in every way! So clean! Feels brand new and the decor and finishes are so nice! If you want to wake up to the ocean waves and be able to step right out onto the beach, this is the place for you! Everything you need to cook at home if you don't want to drive to town. (Go to Walmart to get your groceries before you head North, food at local stores is expensive) This home does share a lot with another identical home, but those guests were not a problem for us. You will see other people though because of that if the other home is booked, so if you want total seclusion, this is not the place for you. It does take about 10 minutes of driving to get to Hanalei for any restaurants, etc... everything takes a while in Hawaii due to windy slow roads. As far as the beach goes, this is NOT a snorkeling beach. In fact, we couldn't get in the water at all. There are lots of big rocks and big waves since this home faces North. The water is rough in this area, so do not plan to get in the water at this home. Tons of nearby beaches though that are safer for water stuff. Not being able to get in the water was not an issue for us. You have to give up something to have views like this! Would stay here again in a heartbeat! Manager was super responsive when we had an issue. The only thing that I did not like was that the hot tub chemicals were so strong that you could not actually get in and enjoy it."

"Super private jungle getaway.-"

"We loved our stay at the river house. We didn’t want to leave. Mark was great! He answered all my questions and even had our kayak rentals waiting for us when we arrived. I love this location! Close to all of my favorite beaches and the best sunrise’s and snorkeling on Kauai. Perfect place to relax and enjoy the beauty. Everyday was a beach day!"

"Great view and "

"Everything about the stay was incredible, from before check-in to after check-out. Mark, the host, shared a wealth of knowledge and was quick to respond to any questions. While we did not use the service, he offered tons of help and coordination around activities/things to do and shared a list of recommendations from restaurants to activities to history. The house was even more spectacular in person than the pictures and waking up to the serenity of the house really put a cherry on top of the cake. Would highly recommend staying here! "

"We stayed at the property at the end of September/beginning of October. We enjoyed ourselves very much, have no complains, house is incredible, we spent most of our time there siting on the beautiful lanai, house is very close to the beach, accessible through a fun, short forest walk and pathway, took us just a few minutes to get to the beach and maybe ten more minutes to get to Tunnels beach with amazing views and snorkeling. House was very clean, ready for us upon our arrival and we really appreciated all the beach equipment including chairs, snorkeling gear etc. house does not have an AC (that we knew) but is well equipped with fans and we did not feel the need for it. House feels secluded and private, no views of other houses. Chickens and roosters were fun to have around:).I can only recommend this property, we felt very happy to spent our vacation there, absolutely no regrets!! Mahalo!!"

"A beautiful home! The location near the water was lovely. We had a fantastic time in this comfortable, clean, bright home. The outdoor shower, hot tub, lanai, kitchen, parking, views, all are fantastic. Pictures are accurate"
