The north shore of Kauai is one of our favorite places in the world and this was a great place for a home base. With proximity to Wainiha General Store (delish shaved ice, and a great selection for when you don’t want to drive into Hanalei) and the Hanalei Colony Resort (with a fun coffee/art cafe) We had a wonderful time at Haena house. The views were outstanding and we even saw a full double rainbow over the water. The waves lulled you to sleep at night and the Sonos sound system was great for extra ambiance. With 7 adults and 1 kindergartener, we had more than enough space. The hot tub was an extra treat after hiking part of the Kalalau trail. It’s also great to be on the other side of the convoy, especially for morning snorkeling at Tunnels (we noticed things pick up there around 7:15 am).
Highly recommend this house and appreciate the attentiveness and responsiveness of Elite and the property manager Sophie.
