About this house rental
This exquisite, fully remodeled four-bedroom home is regally perched as close to the edge of the ocean as a house in Hawaii can be. Featuring a private staircase with 11 steps leading directly to the water’s edge, this is beachfront living at its finest. With sweeping Pacific views from almost every room in the home, come experience the serenity of this private vacation retreat on one of the most hidden stretches of coast in Kauai. Aliomanu Bay is conveniently located between Kapaa & Kilauea, making this property an excellent jump off point to explore.
Painstakingly remodeled in 2019, this open-concept modern home has a feeling of splendor from the moment you step inside. Gorgeous bay windows & double sliding-glass doors truly achieve the sense of indoor/outdoor living. There is a wonderful chef’s kitchen with upgraded appliances, beautiful marbled countertops, & all the necessities to make wonderful meals in the comfort of your vacation home. The entertainment area flows from the kitchen & features comfortable, modern furniture, a beautiful wood coffee table, and a flat screen TV for late night movies and lounging. There is also a wonderful indoor dining area that effortlessly captures the home’s breathtaking views.
Just off the main dining area, step through another set of sliding-glass doors to a private covered lanai that features a BBQ area & plenty of room to lounge. Enjoy outdoor, oceanfront dining or sip cocktails before sunset while watching the beach-walkers stroll by.
There are four bedrooms & three bathrooms inside the home. The spacious upstairs master suites features a queen-sized bed offering a refreshing night's rest. There is also a private lanai where you can enjoy your morning coffee while taking in the view. The en-suite bathroom features a double vanity & walk-in shower. The second upstairs bedroom has king-sized bed & the third bedroom includes two King size beds and share a full-sized bathroom showcasing the home’s beautiful remodel. The fourth bedroom is located downstairs and has a queen-sized bed and garden view. All the bedrooms have A/C for those extra warm late summer day & all rooms equipped with new flat screen TV's, superfast internet/TV with Netflix is included. A new natural stone outdoor tub has recently been added!
There is an additional small living area upstairs that features a lovely reading nook or a work away from home station with ocean views and a foosball table for the gamers in the house.
Aliomanu Bay is tucked away on the east side of the island & is the perfect place to slow down and leave your worries behind. It’s an ideal stretch of sand for shell-seekers & beach walkers plus a great place to swim, in the summer, when the water is exceptionally calm, there is potential for great snorkeling as the bay has some beautiful reef to explore. (Aliomanu Bay is not lifeguarded – please exercise extreme caution – “when in doubt, don’t go out” is a common mantra in the islands.) **Depending on the tides there may or may not be a sandy beach, but can always walk to the sand - fins, snorkel gear, masks are found within the home.
Aliomanu Bay is located less than 20 minutes to the north shore, 10 minutes from Kapaa & 35 minutes to Poipu making it an ideal central location to explore the entire island. Kalalea Juice, Sleeping Giant trailhead, Larsen’s beach and the nationally-recognized Kapaa bike path are just a few attractions close by. Come stay at this very special beach home! “Heaven is a little closer in a house beside the water…..”

Great house and location. We have rented many houses over the years, this was, by far, the most organized. We wanted for nothing!
Great location for visiting north and south of the island.

This was the perfect house for our family trip! The house is spacious so we all had our own room with nice bedrooms. The kitchen, dining & living room is perfect for hanging out & cooking together. Our favorite part of the house was the outdoor space – great private-like beach and nice furniture. We spent the mornings outside watching the sunrise, having coffee & laying on the lounge chairs. The house also had a lot of awesome 'extras' such as beach chairs, a cooler, beach shoes, snorkle equipment, boogie boards, a surf board & wagons. The road to get to this house is closed during the week from 8a - 3p, and although it was a slight inconvenience, we made it work. I wouldn't see this as a big negative unless you have an elderly person or someone who cannot walk a bit. The positives largely outweigh this road closure. It was in a somewhat secluded area, nice features & a friendly neighborhood. I would rent this house again in a heartbeat!

We loved the Bond House. Despite road construction that appears to be a year away from completion at the rate they are working, the stay was fabulous. Be aware that the road to the house is closed from 8:00 to 3:00 Monday through Friday so you need to be mindful of putting your vehicle on the other side of the construction and walking five minutes back to the house.

You will be very satisfied with these accommodations. The water is so close and beautiful- everything was great! Clean place and beds were very comfortable in addition to lots and lots of good extras!

We couldn't have asked for a better experience. The home is lovely and well appointed. Everything we needed was available and there was even some nice welcome snacks. Every morning we watched the sunrise from the deck chairs and would open the lanai doors to let the air in. The beach was low due to winter season, but it was still reasonably easy to reach the sand and walk along the beach. Several of us snorkeled in the small bay and enjoyed it immensely. When leaving the house, we seemed to be 20 minutes from everything, aside from a few locations on the south and west, it was extremely easy to get around, and the small one lane section of road to reach the house was not a hindrance and we almost never even saw another vehicle there.

The property was perfect for our family of 6 adults and three children 10 and under. We explored the Island, fished over the wall, went to a Luau, rode a train, toured a fern grotto, visited the lighthouse, walked through a botanical garden, went to the beach and had a great vacation. Thank you for sharing your home.

I booked the Bond house for a special vacation with my wife, our two little kids, and my retired parents. And all I can say is, WOW. This property is as advertised - right on the ocean and beautiful.
We immediately felt at home in this modern and thoughtfully appointed home. It has clearly been remodeled from top to bottom and the little touches were noticeable. The floor to ceiling windows were incredible and we spent a lot of time on the porch relaxing with a glass of wine and watching the waves. The laundry setup was convenient with plenty of pods and oxy clean. The hosts included a substantial amount of beach equipment including snorkeling gear, folding beach chairs, umbrellas, and more.
The beds were incredibly comfortable with great sheets and blankets and the bathrooms included a ton of extra towels and washcloths.
Definitely reach out to the host to ask about the tides during your desired stay. We were expecting to be able to walk directly to the beach and the tides were never low enough due to the time of year. We were able to drive to other close beaches but would have liked to know during booking that we would not be able to take the 11 steps to the beach as was advertised.
Overall a phenomenal stay and would definitely book again! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home.

These accommodations were exactly as posted. My famiku of 7 enjoyed every minute of this home and what the island had to offer. The beds are extremely comfortable!!! Only negative thing I can say is one of the AC units in the smaller room wasnt working and it got a little stuff during the day, but the host quickly addressed the issue the best she could and we were able to get by. I would highly recommend this home to anyone. Hopefully we can come back again some day.

We loved the house and its amenities. Everything was clean and maintained. The attention to detail was appreciated. We went on a boat cruise to the fern grotto and also on a Razor ride and highly recommend both of them. Some of our favorite restaurants were Java Kai for breakfast and Lava Lava for dinner.

We recently stayed here and absolutely loved it! Amazing location and the house is modern and up-to-date. You will really enjoy sitting on the chairs outside and watching the ocean or taking a stroll down the beach that is 10 steps down from the yard. Location is great too with easy access to Kapaa, Lihue, and other great places. When we come back to Kauai, we will gladly stay here again.

We had 7 in our group and had an amazing 7 day vacation. I highly recommend getting your reservations for excursions before your trip, they fill up fast. We explored the Napali Coast by catamaran and were also able to go into the sea caves. Snorkeling was a plus, you can do it by the beach house, but at times the current is very strong. Went kayaking and hiking to the Sacred Falls. The younger generation loved the UTV tour at the Kipu Ranch, plan on getting muddy and dirty. Didnt eat out much, everything we needed to entertain/cook was at the house. The only issue we had was that we did not have air conditioning for three (3) days, but Victoria, our host, kept us informed of the progress. We all hated to leave the Bond House, but will certainly return.
Thanks again for sharing your home.

We had 10 adults staying at the house for 9 days. We had plenty of space to relax,with the living room and the decks. They had everything we needed from toilet paper and paper towels, soaps and the washer and dryer were really put to use. The beach was one of the better ones we found on the trip. They had enough beach equipment to keep everyone happy. The only complaint we had was the bedroom air conditioning quit working the night we arrived! They tried to get it fixed but the part didn't arrive while we were there. So we had 9 hot sleeping nights! Air conditioning in the bedrooms was the deciding factor in renting a house in Kauai and we ended up not having it. They said that they would credit us for the inconvenience, we will see. All in all great home very clean, we all had a great time. Thanks.

We stayed at the Bond house for Mothers Day week with the family, 7 of us and had a beautiful week! The home was very comfortable and clean and being right on the waterfront was very relaxing. The set up of the house was perfect for us and we liked the location very well since we went horseback riding, chartered a boat, went snorkeling in Anini Beach had cocktails at Timbers , went shopping in Hanalei and hiking at the Queens Pool in Princeville... The home was perfect for us... hope everyone who stays there has the best time!! Thank you again Hawaii Life! Tanys

This house was perfect for 7 adults looking to relax and unwind. From the moment you walk in the door it’s just beautiful. We each had enough space to feel comfortable and enjoy the beach. The beds were comfortable and bathrooms were beautiful. The shower outside is a great feature to rinse off before going inside. Communication was amazing leading up to our trip, while we were there and after we checked out. The sliding glass door to the side lanai needs some work. It’s horrible to try and open and close. The only negative part was the neighbor using a jack hammer from 10am until 5pm both Saturday and Sunday, but that’s not anybody’s fault. Just work being done at a bad time to try to relax too. Maybe a temporary fence behind the outdoor shower would help feel a little more private. I would recommend this company and this house to my family and friends. I will use them every time I come to visit the islands. Thank you!

We loved the location and the house. Had everything anyone could need- beach towels, chairs, boogie boards, snorkel gear, sand toys. The location was perfect- beautiful views and beaches and can snorkel right off the beach. The beds were super comfortable. My only suggestions: most of the house was spotless, very impressed with the overall cleanliness- the main living/kitchen area floor not sure if it was mopped thoroughly as it looked dirty but may have just been stained. The back sliding door is almost impossible to open and close, the track probably needs to be cleaned. And just as a warning the back deck is VERY slippery when wet possibly some sort of non slip coating would be great just from a liability standpoint.

This house was perfect for 7 adults. Its newly remodeled features are modern and done to high standards. We LOVED the large folding doors to allow the ocean breeze to come into the house all day., A fully loaded kitchen made it really easy to cook meals and have lots of drinks without having to run the dishwasher every day. Bedrooms are roomy with ceiling fans & AC units. Lots of toys in the garage for beach fun. Smart TVs, Sonos speakers around the house to keep the music going. The water in front of the house is a little rough to swim but with 2 beautiful beaches within walking distance, it's not an issue. We would stay here again in a heartbeat

Good family home. Right on beach yet halfway between North and South beaches for variety. House is showing salt air problems already ie: outdoor screen doors either hard to move and one fell right off and barbecue badly rusted. Despite all this we had a wonderful family gathering to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary.

Things to improve
Beautiful home, well appointed features. Unfortunately 2 of the 4 bedroom air conditioners were broken. Although maintenance people came out twice, they didn’t fix or replace them. Be aware of a dangerous night time drive to get to this property. However, once there it was lovely, comfortable, with fabulous views and also the house was very well equipped

Great location, beautiful home but a deep clean is needed.
My family and I stayed at the Bond Beach house for 5 days/nights this past August and truly enjoyed our time there. We were a party of 8 adults and felt comfortable in the house space wise. We had liked that the house was right on the beach and were not disappointed with the view upon arriving. It was stunning, perfect for viewing the sunrise and the location was great for morning beach walks which were a daily habit. However, beach access was limited in the afternoon due to the tides but we did not mind. The lounge furniture provided was all very comfortable and made for great nights on the deck. We were provided with everything you would need in the house for cooking, eating and cleaning including dish and laundry detergent which was great.
With all this said there were some shortcomings. The house is in need of a very deep cleaning. I understand that mildew will build up as it is an oceanfront property. However, there was mold in areas of the house including the sliding door curtain in the downstairs bedroom and the light fixtures in the upstairs bathrooms. Secondly, the light fixture in the front upstairs bedroom bathroom was broken and in need of repair. Finally, some of the bathroom towels had stains on them upon our arrival. Also the jacuzzi had been removed which was something we had not been made aware of prior to our stay.
While the above did not ruin our stay at the Bond Beach House I do hope that these concerns are addressed as they will truly improve the experience for future renters.

Loved our stay in Anahola
Great location. Right on the water. Close to all the good stores and restaurants on the north shore. House was great. Needed a little brightening (just a little paint, new carpet, newer furniture). Would be five stars with those minor changes. No problems with rental company. Everything was ready for us. Walked in, threw on swim suit and hit the water. Had a great time.

Great house. Great location.
The house was just right for our large group. Loved having the beach right out front. We jumped in the water about 10 minutes after dropping our bags in our rooms! Snorkeling about 2 hours after low tide was the best. Great location to get almost anywhere else on the island. Tege tege shave ice 10 minutes away at the kapaa food trucks was the best on the island.

What a perfect way to celebrate our 50th anniversary
Almost one year in advance of our visit to Kauai we booked this home for our family, including daughter, her husband and two grandsons. It was a perfect fit for our family. We frequented farmers markets and fish markets and all cooked together in this well appointed kitchen. The location was perfect in relation to our frequent visits to Lihue and Hanalei, or golf at Makai or Ocean Course Hokuala, or zip lining for the grandsons, or canoeing on the Hanalei River, to the zodiac ride to view the Napoli coast, and the Kīlauea Lighthouse and the amazing laysan albatross chicks. Each morning I was on the deck to watch the sun rise and then walk the very private, secluded beach while the rest of the family slept,in. All in all the Bond house was a perfect fit for our family memories.

Absolutely Beautiful!!!!
The view of the ocean is just breathtaking!! The house worked out perfect for us, we had 10 people in our party and you have a gorgeous view from every bedroom. We all hated to leave there (it was our little piece of paradise for a week) If we would ever go back to Kauai--I would love to stay at that house again!!

Warning: stay away!
This place is a total sham and not what was advertised at all. This was the most disappointing week stay of our lives. Owner/Property Manager take no pride in their home and obviously only cares about making a profit rather than investing in the experience the renter is paying big money for. We had a stressful time and wished we’d had stayed in 2 rooms at a resort instead. Here’s why (I have many photos if interested):
- a wide lens camera to misrepresent the size; LR only seats 4
- filthy couches (not the ones in photo) that they must have found on side of road (they claim they’re new!). Mgmt co offered to drop off sheets to cover them up — this is how they resolve the issue of filth and misadvertising! Dining set also not what was advertised on the website and entertainment center was missing completely. These are the things we based our decision on when we chose this place over another cheaper ($2500 cheaper. Also, the mgmt. fed us lies that renovations were done 3 months ago — this house hasn’t seen upgrades since 80s or 90s. Mgmt co offered only a 1 night refund for these misadvertisements.
- Unsanitary for families with kids as its INFESTED: Found and complained about numerous live/dead roaches inside, and owner said that’s “normal”. Mouse droppings in kitchen. Mouse sited.
- Kitchen is FILTHY! Spent entire time scrubbing it clean. The best thing about the kitchen was the cookware (after you wash them).
- Rusty BBQ they say is new, is about 15yrs old and layers of grease and filth had to be scrubbed off.
- Mold filled soap dispensers in the bathroom! All bathroom windows haven’t been cleaned in years.
- Hot tub wasn’t working properly the first 3 days. Given it was cold out, we were expecting to use it from day one
- Downstairs king bed was literally split in half so you sank in the middle of it so you had to fill it with pillows. The master bedroom bed also uncomfortable.
- Several indoor doors didn’t close so if you managed to close them, you couldn’t open them! Broken screen door. Downstairs bedroom door didn’t lock
- Lounge chairs at least a decade old, skeletal and uncomfortable so we asked to have them replaced, which they did the evening of the third day. Bet they took them away.
- One of the two dryers they boast about having was out of order and the dryer and washer were both functional though at least 2 decades old.
- Vacuum is cheap and works poorly
The only good thing about this place is the beach in back.
Stay away!

Fantastic location and views!
Its our second time to stay at the Bond House. It was a bit windy this year, but great snorkeling, really great views, and very comfortable for 5 adults and 5 kids. The hot tub was a huge hit at the end of a long beach day!

A perfect family home
Our two families had a great stay in Anahola! There were 4 adults and 4 kids and we had plenty of room. The house had everything we needed. We loved sitting outside and walking on the beach in the mornings before heading out for the day. Even better was the feeling of coming back to the Bond house in the evening. We truly relaxed and felt at home. Tree trimmers came and there was a real estate showing but we were asked and put first. The location is the perfect distance from everything! From the far West side to the end of the road on the North, we had great access and never spent too much time in the car. We would definitely stay again. It made our vacation great!!

Misrepresented - deceptive photos - unacceptable
We checked into this property and in less than an hour, checked out. The listing says "sleeps 10." While that may be true, trying to accommodate 9 adults in the living and dining spaces is impossible. Dining for 6, couches sat 4 max.
Photos obviously taken with wide angle or fisheye lens, making those areas appear much larger than they actually are. Only one bedroom could conceivably be considered spacious, with two beds, but no bathroom. The others were wall to wall bed. Only three small bathrooms shared by the 4 bedrooms.
Don't expect more than two persons in the kitchen at a time at meal prep time - you'll be running into each other.
Access to the "beach" was non existent at high tide and a 4 foot drop from the steps otherwise.
Upon arrival, the house was closed up and the stench of mold and mildew was overwhelming. Having a mold allergy, my body reacted immediately and severely, taking the remainder of our vacation to recover. We were fortunate to find suitable accommodation in a hotel not far away.
If you have a party larger than 4, think long and hard before booking this property. If you do but the have second thoughts or other options, be sure to cancel well inside the cancellation window. The property owner was not at all compassionate or concerned that his property did not meet our needs or expectations, only about collecting his money and refused to refund anything on our spoiled vacation.
I would not recommend this property to anyone for any reason.

This is the best house I have rented
It was out of the way of any business and was well maintained and had everything you could want in a vacation rental. It is right on the beach and had a fully stocked kitchen with non-stick pans. That may seem like a weird thing to be so impressed with but every other house we have rented I have spent a few hour scrubbing pans. This place had tons of room and each room was very comfortable. lots of space for teens who may want alone time. lots of room to sit a relax and watch the sun rise or just relax and listen to the sounds of the ocean. Two dryers as well so that you can get all your laundry done. Awesome do not miss out on this one.

Great view!
Location is great, house needs a little work but is perfect for a beach house! Saw turtles, seals, and a chicken had her chicks while we were there! Bathrooms get a little crowded with 10 people and 3 bathrooms but it all works out. Can't beat the view and can easily get to places on the island.
