Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Everything about Hale Nalu was perfect for our three-generation family (the youngest gen comprising a preschooler and a toddler). The house is beautiful and very well equipped. The lawn is great for kids to safely play, and Baby Beach is right there. We also drove just a few minutes to the beaches at Kiahuna and Poipu, and a little farther to Lydgate. The location is quiet and private, but everything we needed was close by. Garden Island Rentals was responsive, and the house was spotless when we arrived. Gear included plenty of towels and beach chairs, a good beach umbrella, toys for the kids, and an old boogie board. We loved making friends with Kona, the homeless cat who stopped by morning and evening in hopes of a meal (the owners provide the food), and my husband and I joined Poipu Kai Tennis Club for a week to join in their drop-in doubles. Our favorite family-friendly restaurant was Kauai Island Brewing in Koloa—excellent pizzas, salads, and burgers—and we also liked Mucho Aloha, Brennecke’s, and the poke and açaí at the Kukuiula Market. Oh, and the Thai food truck is good, too. We very much hope to return!

This home is truly in a magical setting and is everything you could ask for! Grandparents, parents and grandchildren all had a joyful time and are sad to go home!! We enjoyed every day in our fully stocked home and couldn’t get enough of that gorgeous view! Mahalo!

Terrific location for a relaxing stay away from it all but close enough to shopping and restaurants for a balanced vacation. Wonderful home which is well stocked and maintained right next to the baby beach. Saw some amazing sea turtles and monk seals while there and our family enjoyed the hammock and hot tub frequently after hikes or a long day at the beach. Will definitely be returning in the future! Thanks for the wonderful stay!

There were 6 adults, my husband and me, and our 2 daughters and their husband,/partner. The hot tub was a hit.2 things that I would recommend the third bedroom should have queen bed in it and more coffee mugs!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Pros:- fantastic views! Can't beat it. Lounge chairs and hammock in the backyard facing the ocean was a great addition.- fully stocked kitchen, good appliances, everything worked- great location- in general, mostly clean (save for a few dead cockroaches in hard to reach places)- easy to find and access the house, check in instructions were clearCons:- slow communication. Would text the rental company with issues (as instructed in their emails to me), but would take several hours to hear a reply back. I even called and left a voicemail to report an issue, but it took nearly 48 hours for them to call back. - found two dead roaches in one of the bedrooms. Found underneath the bed and back of closet. Seems like these harder to reach places were not cleaned very well.- conflicting instructions on garbage day (one document said Monday, another said Thursday).Overall, would recommend and would stay here again.

Lovely home with spectacular sunset and sunrise views. It is steps away from Baby Beach and is walking distance to shops and restaurants. Having two master suites was a bonus.

Beautiful home and great location. Breathtaking sunsets and close to restaurants, shopping and beach access. We saw dolphins and turtles from our porch, and the HOT TUB was the best! It was so fun to sit in after a day of hiking and sightseeing. Hope to stay there again. Garden Island rentals was great to work with. A plus in my book.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was the first vacation in 10 years with all my grown children. We all flew to Kauai from different parts of the USA. And we could not have asked for a better vacation. My family and I had a wonderful time! The house was even better than the pictures. Very well kept, and clean. The views of the ocean were awesome. Waking up to the sound of the ocean everyday was calming and refreshing. We enjoyed our meals on the outside patio every day overlooking the ocean. The hot tub was a great addition to our relaxing experience especially after a long day of sight seeing and hiking. The property manager was very attentive and helpful. Would definintely stay here again.
