The Tiki Hut is the perfect secluded slice of paradise for anyone looking for a quiet tropical beach getaway. Toni’s property and gardens are pristinely manicured for you to sink into island time and enjoy your stay on the beautiful island of Kauai. My wife and I truly enjoyed our extended stay at the property. It has all of the amenities someone would need, easy 5 min walk to tunnels beach for the best snorkeling on the island, and the best greeter/guard dog out there. We cannot wait to come back and visit!

Absolutely amazing

We loved our stay. The garden surroundings were out of this world! I could go on and on about this topic alone… Toni and Samson made us feel so welcome. The tiki hut was spotless, and appointed with touches that made it feel like we were in a home rather than a rental. The location is perfect for a beach holiday, just 5-10 mins walk down a path to one of the best beaches on Kauai.

A Must-See VRBO!

Overall, I rate everything a 10. Toni was absolutely the best host I have encountered at a VRBO. She wanted to make sure your stay was comfortable and that you had everything you needed for a perfect getaway. The location is safe, secure, beautiful, quiet and felt like you were living in a manicured jungle.

Great place!

Had a great time while staying at the Tiki Hut! Tunnels beach was even closer to the cottage than I previously thought - very short walk. Nearby areas such as Hanelei and Princeville are also a short drive and easily accessible by car. Great cottage and would love to stay again!

hideaway tucked away in a little piece of paradise

The Tiki Hut is in an amazing location just a short walk away from (in our opinion) one of the best beaches in kauai. Though it is a drive to get to stores and restaurants, the privacy and seclusion you get it worth it. Toni was a wonderful host and made us feel most welcome as did Sampson her amazing dog. The garden surrounding the tiki hut is truly amazing and provided us hours of lizard and bird watching from the two porches.

A true escape

The Tiki Hut sits in a stunningly beautiful and peaceful garden. A short walk to the beach. We went swimming there every day. Quiet and secluded location but a short drive into Hanalei.

The Best!

Our stay at the Tiki Hut was the best vacation! Toni was a great hostess and her place is unbelievably comfortable and beautiful.

Toni’s beautiful spot and aloha welcoming created a magical eight days for us in this incredibly beautiful part of the world. The Tiki Hut is well equipped with everything you need and more. Just walking distance to Tunnels Beach, Limahuli Gardens and a quick drive to myriad restaurants and places to explore, our time here was full and fun, Next time we’ll plan to stay longer.

True aloha spirit

We can't say enough good things about our 8 night stay at the tiki hut. Much thought and love we're put into making this place a truly special retreat. The pictures in the listing actually don't do it justice, the place was even more beautiful in person. Toni and Sampson welcomed us with true aloha spirit and we were so sad when it was time to leave. We will definitely be back to visit!
