Beautiful home and location

Lovely home with spectacular sunset and sunrise views. It is steps away from Baby Beach and is walking distance to shops and restaurants. Having two master suites was a bonus.

Wonderful Location!

Terrific location for a relaxing stay away from it all but close enough to shopping and restaurants for a balanced vacation. Wonderful home which is well stocked and maintained right next to the baby beach. Saw some amazing sea turtles and monk seals while there and our family enjoyed the hammock and hot tub frequently after hikes or a long day at the beach. Will definitely be returning in the future! Thanks for the wonderful stay!

Excellent location

Would definitely stay here again, although maybe not in the summer (no air conditioning). Great house, everything you need, excellent location, couldn’t possibly get any closer to the ocean. Highly recommended.

Incredible Beach House

Beautiful home and great location. Breathtaking sunsets and close to restaurants, shopping and beach access. We saw dolphins and turtles from our porch, and the HOT TUB was the best! It was so fun to sit in after a day of hiking and sightseeing. Hope to stay there again. Garden Island rentals was great to work with. A plus in my book.

Perfect Poipu Oceanfront Escape

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: We returned to Hale Nalu after renting it almost 20 years ago. It proved even better than we remembered. The home was spotless. The views were spectacular. And the sound of the ocean was transformative. Hale Nalu has everything we needed for the perfect, chill Kauai escape. Having plenty of beach towels, beach chairs, and boogie boards was bonus. On our last day, 2 monk seals came onshore at the baby beach right next door! We will return- and this time we won’t wait 20 years!

Blissful stay!

There were six adults in our group, and we could not have enjoyed the house more. It’s so comfortable and the views are so amazing that we found it hard to want to leave. Whale watching from the deck. Large, well outfitted kitchen and comfortable beds. What more could you want? We loved it and highly recommend it. Garden Island Properties were also great to work with. Very responsive and helpful.

Gorgeous views and great location

Perfect stay on Baby Beach. Easy access to the sand and shopping/dining. Home is beautiful. Kitchen could be a little better stocked for such a nice home. The upstairs master does have a steep set of stairs and could be difficult if you had guests with limited mobility. The feral cat that visits is very friendly and we fed her as suggested but she didn’t eat much. Only had one BIG issue - water started running down thru a can light in the kitchen when one of the guests was using the upstairs jacuzzi tub. We called and left voice/text messages and never heard from anyone until the following morning - 12 hours later. The water did eventually stop flowing but if that were my home, I would have been a little more attentive to something so disasterous!

The baths and kitchen have been remodeled and are great. The kitchen has everything you would need to cook! You can’t beat sitting on the deck at sunset, beautiful! Easy access to Baby beach and tide pools.

Would definitely book again

We asked if they could supply a second coffee maker for a couple friends that drink decaf. Granted, they only advertise coffee pot. But when you lag over 11k I would expect that they would be more willing to accommodate a 20 request. Overall, I would book the property again but had a bad taste in my liutb with their unwillingness to accommodate a minor request.

We will definitely book this house again!

Incredible oceanfront home

Let me start by saying it’s not easy to get to Kauai during covid... the 72hr quarantine bubble in a hotel makes you think twice about going. Airlines canceling your flight 5 days before isn’t helpful. This house made it worth all the hassle. Everything you could want in an oceanfront home. Steps from baby beach which is wonderful for kids. Watching the sun set and the waves crash from the deck & hot tub. House was fully stocked with everything you need. Property manger was very helpful as we had to change dates multiple times due to travel restrictions and flight issues. We will 100% be returning to this house in the future, hopefully without a 72hr quarantine!

Location 10, house...

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Amazing location, Ocean front, beach access, amazing. Baby Beach next door visitors can be loud at times. For the price, furniture is very uncomfortable (but stylist in old Hawaiian way). Dining chairs inside amazingly uncomfortable. Kitchen not outfitted well. Arrived to very strong old mop smell. Turned out to be washing machine. cleaned washer trap and left it open at night with overhead fan running to dry out, never went fully away. Cleaners and rental company should have been more responsive to smell.

Hale Nalu - Paradise

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: Overall, the house is wonderful with all the features you want in a beachside vacation destination. The views from this property are awesome and the sounds of the surf could not be better. Every night we were treated with wonderful sunsets from the comfortable back lanai and once sunset passed, we enjoyed the relaxing spa before retreating to bed. The house is very tastefully decorated and appointed and you’ll not need much more than your food and drink to enjoy your stay. Rooms are spacious and restful and do not worry about the lack of a/c, as there are plenty of breezes flowing through the home. The neighborhood is very quiet and an extremely short distance to great eating and shopping options.

Sunshine, Whales and Sunsets

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: This is our fourth time to rent this property for a week. We hope to return again next year. Perfect spot for a relaxing getaway for our family of grandparents/parents and two young children. Open the windows, feel the breeze off the water, share a meal on the lanai. We shopped at nearby farmers markets (Saturday at the community college and Wednesday at the nearby shopping center), walked to the nearby restaurants, lolled at the beach with the kids. Very slowed down pace. Kitchen well supplied, lots of room to prepare meals. Yard is perfect for little ones. Steps from the reef-protected bay, which is safe for small children.

Fall in Love with Your Grandkids all over again

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: Spotless, artfully decorated space, but not filled with precious breakables you must stow away from curious hands, with entire walls of south-facing sliding door windows for natural lighting and ocean breezes. 5 minute walk to trendy shopping center with pizza, burgers and upmarket eateries, a pricey but well-supplied organic grocer and fish store, drug store. House on tiny lane with many walkers, so comfortable on foot and quiet feel. 1 minute walk to a reef-enclosed flat water beach for sand castles and kiddie snorkeling. Master bedroom upstairs is dreamy big. Plenty of beach toys, boogie boards. Hot tub on lanai well maintained.

Summer Break

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: This was our 2nd time renting Hale Nalu, the first time was about 10 years ago and both times the property did not let us down. Though the weather was not ideal we still managed and had a great time. I found a missing rental key (someone must have lost in the past) and cleaned out the blocked gutter downspouts for you. We also named the outside cat Stitch! Only recommendation is possibly trying to get AC for the downstairs bedrooms. That would help tremendously for the humid nights. Overall, a great time!!!

A Kauai dream

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: Everything about Hale Nalu was perfect for our three-generation family (the youngest gen comprising a preschooler and a toddler). The house is beautiful and very well equipped. The lawn is great for kids to safely play, and Baby Beach is right there. We also drove just a few minutes to the beaches at Kiahuna and Poipu, and a little farther to Lydgate. The location is quiet and private, but everything we needed was close by. Garden Island Rentals was responsive, and the house was spotless when we arrived. Gear included plenty of towels and beach chairs, a good beach umbrella, toys for the kids, and an old boogie board. We loved making friends with Kona, the homeless cat who stopped by morning and evening in hopes of a meal (the owners provide the food), and my husband and I joined Poipu Kai Tennis Club for a week to join in their drop-in doubles. Our favorite family-friendly restaurant was Kauai Island Brewing in Koloa—excellent pizzas, salads, and burgers—and we also liked Mucho Aloha, Brennecke’s, and the poke and açaí at the Kukuiula Market. Oh, and the Thai food truck is good, too. We very much hope to return!

Beautiful views and a great location

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: Pros:- fantastic views! Can't beat it. Lounge chairs and hammock in the backyard facing the ocean was a great addition.- fully stocked kitchen, good appliances, everything worked- great location- in general, mostly clean (save for a few dead cockroaches in hard to reach places)- easy to find and access the house, check in instructions were clearCons:- slow communication. Would text the rental company with issues (as instructed in their emails to me), but would take several hours to hear a reply back. I even called and left a voicemail to report an issue, but it took nearly 48 hours for them to call back. - found two dead roaches in one of the bedrooms. Found underneath the bed and back of closet. Seems like these harder to reach places were not cleaned very well.- conflicting instructions on garbage day (one document said Monday, another said Thursday).Overall, would recommend and would stay here again.
