“Ideal Beach House Location. We LOVED the location of this property and the fact that they have paddleboards and kayaks to use to cross the lagoon/river. The gorgeous Kalihiwai Beach is 2 minutes away. The property is spacious and light and has a great layout where we all had our personal space but a great room/kitchen and dining area to gather. The beds were very comfortable and the ceiling fans in every room were awesome. We also enjoyed the lanai with the lovely view. The house was very clean and well stocked with everything you could possibly need. We will definitely return!”

“We loved this home! Rooms were large with comfortable beds and high end bedding. Kitchen was well equipped AND EVERYTHING WAS VERY CLEAN! We loved the access to the beach. Great having the paddleboards. So close to Princeville for shopping at Foodland and my favorite coffee (Trilogy) in Kilauea but private and quiet. If you exercise, the road in is perfect for a walk or run, safe and a good workout. Checked all the boxes. Thank you Holly, we hope to rent your home again.”

“Great home on the north shore. The home is very spacious and generally well maintained. It comes with plenty of water toys to use in the river/beach. One thing we were concerned about was around crossing the river to get to the beach. The river water is a little chilly in April but not too bad. We were able to walk across the river with it only getting about 3-4 ft deep at the crossing to the beach. We would stay there again!”

“This house had everything we needed and more for a comfortable and relaxing stay! The location can't be beat and all the extras, like SUP, kayaks and surfboards are a big bonus, we used them daily. Would 100% recommend staying here. Parents and teens alike loved it. Would be great for younger kids too!”

“Great! Nice quiet area near beach. Close to Anini Beach, Princeville, Hanalei, and shuttle to Ke'e Beach. Loved the water toys such as kayaks, boogie boards and SUPs. We used them all!”

“Location is perfect for a relaxing get away. Close to amazing surf, state parks, secluded beaches. The home is fully stocked with everything you could ask for! Can't wait to book my next stay.”

Jacqueline, October 2021

“This house is everything we could have wanted - the location is perfect for walking to the beach and our kids loved the river and estuary area with rope swings. The house is beautiful, and having the kayaks, SUPs and all of the beach toys made it extra special. We will certainly be back!”

“This was a wonderful location and stay. The house was very clean and spacious. They have everything you could possibly want as far as amenities. Look forward to coming back again.”

“From the moment we arrived to the moment we left we had nothing but amazing things to say about this property. Location was perfect for our needs, you definitely feel like a local rather than a tourist. The proximity to the beach and river was more than ideal and extremely convenient as were the water toys that were provided with the house. The house itself was beautiful, airy, and clean. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped. Overall are experience staying here was memorable and we could not imagine staying anywhere else the next time we visit.”

“Thank you for hosting us at the Kalihiwai Beach House. It was wonderful. We really appreciated having all the soap, toilet paper and laundry supplies. And the boats and SUP boards were so fun to have access to.”

“This place is a gem! We visited after the Christmas holidays with our daughter and boyfriend. Nice large place, well appointed, with great places to hang out or find alone time, plus a fast walk to the fairly secluded beach and access to the back bay/river (having cayaks and paddleboards a real plus!). Kalihiwai Valley is off the main road so it's quiet and feels like you are "living like a local", and then also very close to Princeville and Hanalei for greats shops and restaurants - best of both. We go to Kauai every year and would definitely return. Thanks Holly and team.”

“The house was simple, comfortable, clean, well-appointed, everything that suited our needs in a vacation home. Having all of the water toys was perfect for the location. Daily paddles up the river, surfing when the waves were up, and the beach chairs made our stay more fun than it would have been otherwise. We loved crossing the river to get to the Kalihiwai beach. It was a safe, comfortable place to stay, couldn't have been more beautiful. We loved the outdoor shower, too! Couldn't have asked for home ground for our vacation!”

“I feel like we stepped into the Blue Hawaii movie. What a relaxing and fun vacation. A new kayak, surfboards, and stand up paddle boards at the house saved us a bunch of money. We slept in crisp linens in a sparkling clean house. Had our coffee, grabbed the SUP and paddled up the Jurassic Park river (my son's name for it) Came home, grabbed surfboards and hit the waves. We also were blessed with swimming twice with the dolphin that frequent the bay. Pure Heaven. KIV property management was always a quick call away if we needed concierge for anything. We have already booked our next trip back to this magical house.”

“Quiet, secluded ocean front piece of paradise, yes it does exist, i know i stayed there. WOW. That's all I can say. the home was steps from the sand. It was located in hidden quiet cove, tucked away from the fast paced world around. It has a huge lush green lawn. The homes exterior is perfectly kept. Inside was a gorgeous well equipped home that could easily sleep six. The master bedroom was amazing and serene, with beautiful white linens and very very comfortable bed. When i decided to head to the beach I brought a stand up Paddle board and a beach chair that was in the homes garage, it was perfect. I highly recommend this home for families.”
