For us, an ideal place is location, close to the beach, grocery store, restaurants, and in a small town in Kauai. So, for two families with four young children, the Rainbow House is our perfect accommodation, a home away from home.

The beach is a short walk away about a block and a half. Two grocery stores and a handful restaurants are within walking distance or two minutes by car. Hanalei is a beautiful and charming town.

We were welcomed with avocados left at our doorstep. The vaulted ceilings and fans kept the interior comfortable during the day and evening.

We often heard it rains in Hanalei and surrounding areas, but in September, we experienced only short periods during the days and most occurred in the evening, which was soothing and conducive for relaxing or sleeping. We were surrounded by nature, birds chirping and waterfalls seen from the front upstair porch.

Micco is a great host, mindful of our privacy and available when required. We strongly recommend staying here.
