Emergency Procedures
We are glad to say that in our 16 years of ownership of this property, we have not experienced any damage from a Hurricane or Tsunami at this location. It is good practice, however, to have an emergency plan in place as this property is located in a Tsunami Evacuation Zone. Please see the map below which details the preferred routes and emergency locations for both Hurricane and Tsunami Warnings. In essence, Hurricane Shelter is provided at the Kekaha Neighborhood Center, one block West; and in case of Tsunami Warning, local residents drive up the close by Highway 552 towards Waimea Canyon / Koke`e Park. Most experts say that once you are at least 100 feet above sea level, you are out of Tsunami danger. This can be accomplished in approximately a five-minute drive from the house. Mahalo and please feel free to forward any questions.

We absolutely loved this vacation home! The view of the ocean from the deck was beautiful and we ate out there everyday. The kitchen was well-stocked. The home was clean and spacious. The owners were super responsive to all our communications. We would highly recommend this location!

The house was large enough for our party of nine. The teens loved the foosball table and everyone enjoyed the deck. The stars at night were amazing. There were plenty of plates, glasses, and place settings of silverware. We had several beach towels and chairs to use on the beach. We did end up driving to Lihue and beyond a few times but the house and laid back Waimea area offset the drive to activities.

The balcony view steals the show, a beautiful way to start your day with coffee on this balcony.
The house did not disappoint. We were 3 families totaling 10 with plenty of room and space for everyone comfortably.
4 master bedrooms with private restrooms in each. Had an additional bedroom for lil children attached to upstairs master with another single bedroom.
We had a few issues but nothing major that the owners didn't address right away.
The only thing I would recommend is make renters aware if you or others will be entering the home while guests are out for repairs and make sure it's ok prior to making those arrangements.
Would highly recommended this rental.
Got to experience the calm South side of Kauai near Waimea. If you are looking to stay away from the busy Lihue/North side this is a perfect location.

This is an amazing home to stay in with a group of people. The porch looks right out over the ocean. Perfect for any time of day!! Don't think about it anymore and just book your vacation here.

The house was amazing! We had a group of eight adults, and there was still room for children if necessary. The owners were awesome and I can’t thank them enough for our stay. The Ocean View and patio was just perfect for us. We preferred a desolate side of the island, and this was great. Thank you for our stay, we will be back!

This property exceeded our expectations!!! House was huge, clean and filled with everything we needed for the week. The kids loved their personal little beds. Views of the beach were amazing and sunsets were perfect walking distance. Owner was very responsive and helpful in all aspects. They went above a beyond. Overall amazing time spent there. Can’t wait to come back for more!

My husband and I just got married in Kauai and were looking for a big home to share with our family and a few close friends for the duration of the trip. I’m SO grateful that we had the opportunity to stay in this beautiful home and can say with 1,000% certainty that if we travel to Kauai with a group again we will definitely plan to stay here again! The bedrooms were all nice and there were enough bathrooms that nobody had to share. The house was well stocked and if there was something that we needed Jules was very quick to respond and would get it to us right away! The shared living spaces were perfect for our group to hang out in and the deck and back yard with the ocean view were even better than I could have imagined. Jules also was very helpful when it came to recommendations/updates on things to do while on the island. The one thing that was a challenge was this side of the island seemed to have more mosquitoes, but nothing that some bug spray couldn’t solve! We also enjoyed how quiet and laid-back this part of the island is and it really was SO close to Waimea. After the rest of our group left my husband and I checked into a smaller VRBO for our ‘honeymoon’ and we were just so disappointed with it after staying in this amazing rental. If you’re on the fence about this place, just book it, I guarantee you won’t regret it! While we didn’t have any children in our party, there was an adorable room that had smaller beds for kiddos so it would be perfect for a family!

Our stay included 9 adults and 3 children. This house defiantly had plenty of room for all of us. We very appreciative of all the accommodations for the grandchildren. We had mattresses for the toddlers and a crib for the infant. We spent so much time on the deck. The deck has a porch swing and a hammock. Everyone in our group had their own bedroom. Location is somewhat away from some of the more popular things to do on Kauai, but to come back to this house and for everyone to spread out was the way to go for us. There are 2 bedrooms on the main floor and 2 bedrooms upstairs. Most of all our time was spent upstairs.
Owner was available for any questions or concerns.
Most defiantly would recommend this home for a big family.
Thank you for letting us enjoy your home!!

We enjoyed our stay very much. We chose the west side of the island because we knew we wanted to enjoy sunny beaches. The weather was perfect during our stay! The home was spacious and beds were very comfortable. Hosts were wonderful about communicating and checking in with us. The view from our lanai was everyone’s favorite!

We rented this home as a girls only vacation. The listing is accurate, the view is amazing, and the house is plenty big for larger groups. The hosts were very easy to communicate with and provided us with some assistance as well as great meal recommendations. It is aways away from some things but it was just what we were looking for. It is an island afterall so you can get anywhere in less than 90 minutes. We were 20 minutes from our whale watching cruise and you are right next to the road that takes you to Waimea Canyon. We even took a trip to Princeville and got there in less than 90 minutes. We would definitely stay here again.

We had such a wonderful visit! Jules and Patrick were such great hosts. The house could not have been more perfect for our family ( 7 adults, 2 kids and 2 babies. The bedrooms were all the perfect fit. We had safety stuff for the babies and plenty of beach stuff. The deck was a place we spent a lot of time on. Thank you for the great house. Audre

We very much enjoyed our stay here. The house was spacious with beautiful ocean views from the upstairs deck. The hosts were very kind and easy to communicate with. They answered our questions via text and offered many good suggestions for things to do nearby.

You could not find a better place to stay while on Kauia. Jules is a wonderful host. Did not get a chance to meet Patrick but I'm sure he's wonderful also We had to bother her a couple of times for minor things and she was always there to help.
The house was clean, and the accommodations were great. Our favorite part was spending time on the balcony and looking out at the amazing ocean view.
Thanks again for sharing your beautiful home with us.

This location is amazing. We have 7 people in our party and the accomodations were fitting for everyone. The patio faces out towards the ocean and it is an amazing view. We did have to drive about 45 mins to our excursions, but it was well worth it. The property owners are amazing and stayed easily accessible during my entire trip. 10/10 would recommend this location if you plan on making a trip to Kauai.
10.0
The home and location were perfect for our big family. We loved spending time on the balcony and particularly appreciated that each room, except for one, has its own bathroom. We also wanted to be on the drier side of the island, with easy access to Waimea Canyon hikes and the beach in Poipu. This home was perfect for that. That said, we were pleasantly surprised with the beach down the street from the house. It’s quieter and much less crowded than the beaches up north, and beautiful! Overall, 10/10 stay. Finally, the hosts were the best. Jules and Patrick checked in throughout the trip and provided great recommendations — they are some of the most attentive and thoughtful hosts we have encountered.

This home is located right at the ocean with easy access to the beach. We had some unforeseen upon arrival but working closely with Patrick and Jules they were able to resolve things in a few days and really went the extra mile. On your way from the airport, stop at Costco for bulk items (eggs, bacon, liquor, chips, etc.) There is a Safeway near Costco so get things that perish quicker from here and in reasonable quantity. There is also a local market in Waimea if you need emergency items you missed. Waimea Canyon is a short drive from the house and absolutely do not miss Polihale Beach. The road is not paved and quite bumpy but you will not regret the adventure. It's a very short distance from the house.
There is some road noise when sitting on the Lanai, but honestly, you won't even mind it because you're looking out at the ocean all day. Kekaha is much more quiet than many of the other locations on Kauai; and it's the dry side of the island so it doesn't get a ton of rain which is great if you enjoy the sunny weather. However, any short drive on the island you'll likely enjoy a pop up rain shower every now and then. Overall a great visit and we looking forward to visiting the island again. Thank you Patrick and Jules !!
6.0
Overall we enjoyed our trip to the Island and liked the location. The area where the house is located, is a nice spot with an excellent view of the sea. The house is in a very quiet area with a short drive to the "Tourist" spots.
The house itself has a very nice entertaining area inside and out. We absolutely loved the deck area and outdoor area by the bbq pit. The bedrooms and bathrooms are nice and the kitchen is moderately stocked.
Unfortunately for us though, the house air conditioning was out for our trip. It is not uncommon for houses in Hawaii to not have AC, but one of our criteria when we were looking for houses was to have it. We were travelling with young children and older grandparents and trying to get to sleep when the house is in the 80s Fahrenheit was a little rough.
The hosts provided a discount after the trip and genuinely seemed to care about our situation. The circumstances were a bit against us, but if we are looking outside our moment in time, I think the house will suit most families.

This home is a little bit of a drive from the North shore, but our family enjoyed having the space this home supplied, and the view is beautiful! We loved sitting on the porch swing and enjoying the view of the ocean!! The master suite was so nice for our small children. Jules was great to work with, and took care of the few things we needed. We would highly recommend.

You can't beat the view on the lanai, saw multiple whales and dolphin pods. It's so peaceful to have breakfast on the porch swing or enjoy the hammock. Comfortable bedrooms and plenty of bathrooms, easily accommodated 8 adults and 3 infants. My 3 year old particularly enjoyed the fire truck and race car toddler beds. Kitchen is well stocked with dishes, nice grill outdoors, large dining room table worked well for playing family games. Tons of fridge and freezer space (there are two) and laundry to use. Patrick and Jules are very responsive via text and gave us recommendations for where to find local fruit stands and markets, we felt very at home here in their quiet neighborhood

What a fantastic home base to return to each day after exploring the island. Our party of 9 included 4 grandparents, 2 parents, and 3 teens. Our favorite part was sitting on the 2nd floor lanai, spotting whales on the horizon. The second floor has the common living areas, laundry, a small bedroom (with a double or queen bed) and a large master bedroom/bath/walk in closet room (with baby beds). Three more bedrooms on the ground floor, all with bathrooms and king beds. We also used one of the pull out sofa beds on the second floor and it was very comfy. The McClean family was helpful in every way, and blessed us several times with unexpected favors. We would stay there again in a second.

Jules and Patrick were perfect hosts. Their home is absolutely amazing. All amenities you could possibly need. The property is even nicer than it appears in photos. Our group of 8 adults were super comfortable. Every room has own bath/shower. Jules gave us many great recommendations and was super responsive when we had a question. MAHALO…for sharing your beautiful home!!!

For starters, Waimea is the place to stay on Kauai for families and this is the house to stay. the property is in great condition, Jules and Patrick are the best hosts and communicate frequently and that view is to die for. we would spend every morning and every evening as a family sitting, eating and drinking on the deck.
5.0
A most amazing house for our Son’s Kauai wedding. Every morning we gathered on the deck overlooking the ocean watching the waves hitting the rocks and drinking our coffee. We had nine people here but there are so many rooms with King size beds with own bathrooms it was wonderful. Our 10 year grandson got his own queen size bedroom/bathroom and was beyond happy not to have to share. The littles had car beds they made into forts and couldn’t have been happier. For our 60th bday party we used the grill for chicken and hamburgers and hosted 16 family members comfortably. Would not have been able to do this in a condo. Huge kitchen. So many bath/beach towels, beach toys, boogie boards.. everything was here. Last but not least.. A/c:) we went to other relatives condos that did not have A/c. Amazing home and grateful for opportunity to share it together.

Jules was so kind to welcome us and give us so many local tips, full of aloha!!
We loved the location, close to Waimea Canyon, small towns, uncrowded beaches, incredible view from the lanai. The bedrooms were perfect for multiple generations, plenty of space, bathrooms, big kitchen, beautiful grounds, “happy hour” around the grill/bar, beach gear to borrow was much appreciated. Just perfect!

We stayed for two weeks Hale La. The property was in a great location. We were a family of ten and there was more than enough space for our family. The house was equipped with anything you could possibly imagined in the kitchen as well as beach towels, toys, water shoes, etc. The communication with the property owner, Patrick and his wife, Jules was excellent. They kept us informed on events in the area and were right there to help with any issue that arose which were very few. We are already planning our next visit back to Hale La. I'm sure anyone would be happy staying at Hale La.

Just WOW!
My stay was a pandemic-delayed, multi generational, retirement celebration from me to my family. Starting w/ the booking process of Hale La, a few years ago, through my 4 week stay, I found the owners, Patrick and Jules, to be incredibly KIND, responsive and accommodating. The house itself, is TO DIE FOR! I will forever miss the ocean views from the balcony. The kitchen had every pot, pan, utensil, electric device, etc that we could possibly want/need. We were blown away by the stash of every conceivable beach-related equipment, including pool shoes (which you’ll need for most of the beaches). The beds were comfy. If young children are in your group, the house has you covered - crib, pack-n-play, high chair, booster seat, etc. TV has lots of channels, though we spent most of our time on the ocean-facing deck. Strong wifi. A grocery store is just a few miles away in Waimea, though Costco got most of our grocery and gas money. The neighborhood is quiet, except for some intermittent road noise and chickens. (It IS Kauai, after all).
It was an idyllic stay in Hale La on an idyllic island. Mahalo to Patrick and Jules.

Perfect house on the beach in quiet neighborhood
This house was amazing, perfect for my family (8 total) though we could have comfortably had a few more in the house. The house can easily accommodate large groups hanging out in the living room/kitchen/balcony area and because the rooms are all spacious and have their own bathrooms, it is easy to get private time away from the group if needed. The property owners were very communicative and helpful via text. Would absolutely recommend this to anyone looking for a big house with easy access to the beach.

Great for friends to rendezvous
It was a perfect house for heading out each day to explore the Island, and then gathering each night to cook a meal and dine together as we watched the sunset over the ocean.

Gorgeous sunsets, great property
Having 5 bedrooms and 5 baths made this house the perfection option for my group of adults. The house was spacious and well-appointed, and it’s proximity to Waimea Canyon, Barking Sands, Polihale, and small boat harbors (for Na Pali tours) can’t be beat. Would absolutely stay here again!

What a view!
Wonderful experience! Bedrooms were plenty big with numerous bathrooms for our group. Best part was sitting on the deck watching the ocean. It made it so hard to leave- but we will definitely be back! It’s a drive to pretty much anywhere, but so worth it.
