Beautiful!

We had a delightful stay at this property. Everything was as pictured and the hosts were very responsive and helpful. One note, it’s actually four bedrooms and a loft upstairs. It’s a very large space but doesn’t have a door. We love this home and hope to return!

June 2019 Stay at Hale Ohana

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The home was a great base for our activities on Kauai. It was conveniently located to all south-side restaurants, beaches, golf and tourist locales. The house was well stocked with towels, beach toys, and kitchen items. It was warm during our stay so the extra fans were put to use - although 2 ceiling fans on the lanai would have helped.

Kauai Dreams

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The key to a great family vacation is a great house, which we got with Hale Ohana. Upon arrival, our family was ecstatic when we discovered the backyard and the spacious lanai. We took all of our meals outdoors, enjoying the scenery. I wish I could give more than five stars on the review. We can't wait to make a return trip to Kauai and stay at Hale Ohana again.

10 out of 10

Rating Details: The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This home exceeded expectations. The privacy, quiet and views are incredible. The home was perfect for all 8 of us including 2 mother in laws. The ac units in each bedroom helped us all sleep like babies. BBQ’s on the back deck and family meetings on the lanai listening to the waves crash will be memories we will always remember. The home is well stocked with everything you need to cook and clean up after yourselves. We loved the beach chairs, snorkel gear & beach towels. Communication with GIR was excellent and I plan on booking this spot again in the future. Thank you for hosting such an amazing experience!

Paradise!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: First off, the cleaning was the best I've seen since Covid! I can even tell they sanitized the refrigerator and when we were vacating, they were carrying in replacement pillows! The AC in the bedrooms definitely made our stay comfortable but all our time was spent on the lanai soaking in the scenery. The sunsets were fabulous. We even had a view of the spouting horn! I also loved being on the beach so we could access at our leisure. Garden Island was quick to respond and checked on us throughout our stay. Definitely customer friendly and would book with them in the future.

I want to give it five stars but....

The location of our rental could not have been more perfect! The view was incredible and the small beach out front was an absolute joy (and the sea turtle that visited every day)! Our morning walk to Living Foods coffee was a treat too. The rental had everything we needed as far as space and conveniences. A couple of issues arose while staying and were very quickly addressed by Garden Island staff. Some feedback would be that the house needs a deep cleaning (carpets, fans and cupboards) and a bit of updating. Parts of the house are "run down" from use...like some of the furniture and kitchen. I feel like the cleaning crew is likely moving through the house at warp speed to prepare for the next tenant....the amount of dirt on the broken fan blade in the twin room was plentiful (guessing the rest of the fans are similar), in the master there was a walking stick and what appeared to be used tissues behind the dresser and the final nights sleep was with a giant cockroach in our bed (we realize cockroaches are a thing in Hawaii...but crawling on you while you sleep was a bummer). Anyway, I feel like these are things that could be easily addressed if given attention and I am sure the lovely staff at Garden Islands Rentals will do just that. With a little attention given to the home this would easily be a five star experience!

Complete waste of money and time and energy

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Complete waste of money and time and energy rented this location way in advance as I was renewing my vows and it was my 55th birthday I've rented properties on VRBO since they were open. Upon arrival everything seemed okay Monday morning first thing the only two properties on the beach where the one that I rented and the one they decided to start construction on they began demolitioning the back patio which was about 50 ft from the master bedroom so we were awaken mornings throughout the day with saws and motorized equipment and hammering which sounded like they were in the room with me. Upon complaining to the rental agency they stated it was their property and they could stop it and will do their best. Going to maintenance guy arrived at the door telling me that I needed to work out a schedule with him in order for them to work because the owners were returning and they wanted to have some work done for their return. I explained I paid $17,000 for 7 days and I didn't care what the owners wanted I need it quiet. the work continued I complained again to the rental office and next to manager came back to me stating that they needed to get the work done apparently for some fall that somebody had and he made up a long story that totally contradicted what the maintenance guy had said. They continue to work I pleaded with them to stop they did not I contacted VRBO with a complaint did not hear back. We were forced to check out and stay at the Hyatt and they were gracious enough to allow us to find another place to stay at the last minute on an island that has nothing available and they would refund two nights for us. After about 4 hours of searching we found a place to stay for the next 3 days and we moved out and went to the new location and they agreed to send us $4,000 refund out of the 17,000. The energy I expended in the middle of the trip the stress it created and the fact that vrbo allowed this place to rent us a property that clearly had construct

Best Property on Kauai

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Dream house on the beach front perfect for familiesIf we stayed at the Hyatt with Ocean View Rooms it would have cost us 50% more. This house, Hale Ohana, was perfect for my entire family of 9! The gardener told us this is the best rental property on Kauai! Beach front with a huge grass lawn between our lanai and the ocean. Steps from Baby Beach where we saw turtles on the sand several afternoons and even a rare Monk Seal! The bedrooms were perfect! The kitchen was well equipped and spotless! The House had TVs where you would want them although you will most likely not be watching! We enjoyed our meals on the lanai daily at sunset with food from many great restaurants in Koloa to bring in from! (Bubba Burgers a must and Leong’s) Croquet and Bochi Ball on the lawn with the grandkids was magical, as was throwing the frisbee! We were in awe of this property, its location and incredible sunset views every night! And a nightly view of the Spouting Horn blowhole in the distance! We walked to the Beach House for dinner. Less than 10 minutes. The weather was perfect with an occasional passing shower that would result in rainbows almost every day. On my birthday me and the grandkids were playing on the lawn on my birthday morning when the most o incredible double rainbow came out and said “Happy Birthday, Grandpa, you picked the perfect place!”

Amazing stay!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: There were 4 couples who stayed at this beautifully appointed home. We had seen the pictures, but actually BEING right on the beach was spectacular. Evenings on the wide lanai were so pleasant. The house met all our expectations with the exception of AC in the living areas. But we weee grateful for the AC in each downstairs bedroom. One couple came home after dinner the final night to the smell of gasoline all around the vehicle. A stick or something had punctured the gas tank. The next morning they had to deal with rescheduling their flight home and arranging for a car. Management was gracious and allowed them to remain at the house well after checkout time. We experienced the true meaning of Aloha.

This is the second time our family has spent our vacation in this wonderful home. If you decide to rent this home, take some time to find 0out about the over 100 year history of the family that ows the property.

Everything you could expect from a Hawaiian vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location was great and the access to the beach was a short stone's throw. The home accommodated us well but I must say that the middle bedroom going down the hallway had VERY POOR lighting. After sundown with the lights on, you still needed a flashlight.Also, one of the lamps in the living room had a wobbly (*broken) shade support. As we understand the cabinets will be upgraded on our return in 2024.

Great place,

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Just want you to know that I sent this in when you first sent the link out. Not sure why it did not go through. We have stayed at this house for 4 years now. Location, house and deck are wonderful. It is very clean and the kitchen has everything you will need. The problem we had this time was with Garden Island Rental Company. I never received the directions and house code to get in the house. On Friday, still not having received anything, I sent an email asking for the house code. Saturday AM I still had not heard anything. I called 2 times and sent 2-3 emails. I still never heard anything back. We arrived with a crying 3 year old who needed a nap but could not enter the house. After waiting awhile we started to look for other places to stay for the night- there were 8 and we were not happy looking for other places. At this point my friend remembered she had an email from last year. We tried the code and it worked. I never heard anything back from anyone until Monday morning. There was no mention of us having a hard time getting in, no explanation that we did not receive directions and NO mention of why there was no one from Friday - Sunday to answer my calls/emails. What happens in case of emergency. I will say that we all were very frustrated by this experience. It is hard to believe that there is a rental company without emergency contact for off hours. I have been home for 2 weeks now and have still not heard anything from company....

The house was also clean and well stocked with essentials. Every bedroom had access to the wonderful covered porch that wrapped around 3/4ths of the house. We also loved having our own little beach so close to the house. All in all, we can’t recommend this house enough.
