Tropical breezes, ocean view and sunny white sand beaches.

Tropical breezes, ocean view and sunny white sand beaches make this an ideal vacation rental house. It is furnished in a traditional island style with a fully equipped kitchen. Upstairs is a large ocean-facing master suite with a California King, an adjoining sun-room with two twin beds and a deck with a 180-degree view towards the ocean. Downstairs are two additional bedrooms each with a queen bed and its own bathroom. The kitchen, dining room and central family room offer plenty of space, sunlight and comfort for all.

Centrally located in the quaint 19th century plantation town of Kapaa on the east shore of Kauai, you will find a variety of activities. A beach protected by a barrier reef is within walking distance. This uncrowded beach is called Baby Beach by the locals because of the gentle surf and safety afforded to smaller children. Other beaches of Kapaa offer windsurfing and kite surfing or enjoy the many surfing spots on the east shore of Kauai.

Also, explore Hawaii's amazing sea life by snorkeling and scuba diving or enjoy fishing. Hike the trails of Nounou (the Sleeping Giant), a Forest Reserve that rewards your effort with views of the entire island. Paddle a kayak up Kauai's Wailua River, one of Hawaii's few navigable rivers and explore the famous Fern Grotto, Secret Falls and the canyons of the Wailua River interior. Golfers appreciate being so close to top-ranked Wailua Golf Course. In the evenings, walk to historic Kapaa Town and enjoy local Hawaiian food and a variety of fine restaurants.

The convenient location of Hale Niu allows easy access to the Na Pali Coast, Princeville and charming Hanalei to the North, Poipu Beach to the South and famous Waimea Canyon to the West.

After a busy day, unwind and relax in the private and peaceful setting of Hale Niu. Sit on the spacious veranda of this traditional Hawaiian-style Kauai vacation rental home and watch the coconut trees sway in a soft tropical breeze.

Best location
Staying at Hale Niu was a great choice for its central location. The 3+ bedroom with 3 baths home was spotless and its size allowed all 5 of us adults to relax and stretch both in and outdoors. The kitchen was wonderfully stocked with dishes, pots and pans and dishwasher and the dining area was delightful. The huge lanai with table and reclining lounges was a favorite! We had a small view of the ocean but ocean access right across the street and beautiful sun rises. Even had a washer and dryer which was very helpful! We loved this home!

I felt the pictures made it look small, but to my surprise it was really big!!! The beds were the worse!!! Spend some money on new mattresses. The neighbors to the back were loud and cursing a lot and my grand babies were with us. Dislike that very much . Also ,didn’t feel comfortable in the area after reading the warning about burglaries in our area.

Needs Some Love
Pros Good location, large outdoor grassy area, well stocked kitchen, quick responses from management Cons Dated property (rust in some areas, stains on floor and carpets), ants on countertops (we kept everything very clean but there were many small ants) and in bathroom, termite droppings near the bathroom by the floorboards, noise from the street/cars at night, noise from construction on house next door (building noise and loud cursing), dead bugs on the bathroom ceiling that had not been cleaned, lots of wear and tear

Great location with room to spread out!
Very comfortable house! Has one of the best equipped kitchens we've found in a vacation rental. Our group of 4 (my husband and I + our 2 twenty-something kids) found the location very convenient to explore the island or walk to town along the coast. Fabulous porch and spacious front yard provided lots of room for relaxing.

The perfect family spot
Hale Nui was everything we were hoping it would be. Amazing location, great lanai, beautiful large lawn for the kids to run around under the palm trees, short walk to the beach, the perfect base from which to explore the north and south/west of the island. Photos are a little older and don’t reflect some newer amenities, so in some ways it’s even better than advertised. Hope to bring the gang back here soon!

Good family rental
This is a well used rental so don't expect resort perfection but it was clean and well stocked and we had everything we needed for a fabulous holiday. We were 5 adults and 2 children and the layout of the house was perfect for us. As the children are young, being within walking distance of a reef sheltered beach was ideal. We loved the town of Kapa'a and had a lot of fun renting bikes, shopping and exploring. We had a great time and have no regrets.

Gem of a spot
The location is fantastic - 20 minutes from the airport, a short stroll to restaurants or grocery stores, easy walk to a little kid-friendly beach (rocks break the waves and create a nice pool for little ones), a short drive to a life-guard beach for bigger kids and better swimmers, and about 30-45 min drive to boatings/SCUBA activities and 30 min drive to Princeville for shopping. Cute home. Well stocked kitchen - like it actually had tools for us to cook meals at home with! I would come back with the family again in a heart-beat. Great home!

Old Hawaii. Great value. Good location
8 of us rented this charming home for ten days. It fit our family with 3 younger kids well. As the photos show it has a tropical feel, comfortable, clean. It is a little dated but we were not paying for glitz. The front yard is huge and great for playing ball. At first we were concerned about no AC but it was fine. There are lots of fans and the breeze is wonderful. The laundry is great. That room has lots of sand toys, boogie boards, beach chairs etc. The kitchen is well equipped. It is just across from the ocean. The beach is not for little kids. You are half way between Poipu in the South and Princeville in the north. Walking distance to shopping and restaurants. We all loved it and would go back. Great value.

Easter Break from Montana Snow
Kapaa was a great location! The house was walking distance from a kid friendly beach, but be careful on windy days and high tide. We were able to walk to the grocery store and restaurants. Recommend crossing at the light, lots of traffic. The house was clean, had plenty of good water, towels and dishes and cookware. We wish there had been some spices left from previous guests. We loved the porch, and the 6 year old loved finding geckoes all around the house. Lydgate Beach had something for everyone, great place to snorkel. We had a great vacation and will recommend this place to our friends!

Great accommodations for a family.
The house in Kapaa was perfect for our group. Open floor plan, nice kitchen, and nice bedroom arraignments. The yard and location worked out well for our group. Washer and dryer also came in handy. Available beach towels and other beach items were used daily. I would highly recommend this property to larger groups or families.

This was a perfect place for our gathering for our sons wedding.
We loved everything about this place, the location, the yard, the kitchen was fully stocked. It worked well for us as the 2 bedrooms downstairs was for the older folks and the bedroom and sleeping porch upstairs worked great for our family. We couldn’t think of anything we needed and didn’t have. The front porch was great for family dinners and relaxing. Loved it and we hope to come back!
