Bottom line: our time in Kauai was one of the most amazing experiences of our lives all thanks to the opportunity to stay at the Surfshack, which is the GOLD STANDARD of AirBnBs.
It rivals the costlier resorts nearby and throughout Hawai’i. Everything you need/want is at your fingertips, down a short stroll to the beach, or a scenic drive around Kauai.
Kasey and Bryan have thought of everything and every detail. The space is extremely welcoming and comfortable; it’s immaculately clean, cool, and like living in a spread of Architectural Digest.
The private beach is a small stroll down a beautiful path. There are ample eating spots within a 5-10 minute drive including a pizza place/pub 400 feet away. Go get sushi at the Dolphin (Hanalei) and the fishwich at the Local (Kappa).
We rented a car and drove all over the island. Easy and scenic in all directions. Be sure to drive up to Waimea Canyon and book a beach landing excursion on the Napali Coast with Blue Ocean Adventures. You will see natural beauty that you cannot fully imagine.
We watched the sunset on the lanai every evening and listened to the waves hitting the shore. We slept soundly each night and never heard any noise other than the wind gently coming through the screened windows.
If you’re hesitating even one moment about booking this place, stop immediately and look no further. This is a one of a kind experience and one that you won’t regret or ever forget.
THIS is Kauai at its very best.
