You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Tropical breezes, ocean view and sunny white sand beaches.

Tropical breezes, ocean view and sunny white sand beaches make this an ideal vacation rental house. It is furnished in a traditional island style with a fully equipped kitchen. Upstairs is a large ocean-facing master suite with a California King, an adjoining sun-room with two twin beds and a deck with a 180-degree view towards the ocean. Downstairs are two additional bedrooms each with a queen bed and its own bathroom. The kitchen, dining room and central family room offer plenty of space, sunlight and comfort for all.

Centrally located in the quaint 19th century plantation town of Kapaa on the east shore of Kauai, you will find a variety of activities. A beach protected by a barrier reef is within walking distance. This uncrowded beach is called Baby Beach by the locals because of the gentle surf and safety afforded to smaller children. Other beaches of Kapaa offer windsurfing and kite surfing or enjoy the many surfing spots on the east shore of Kauai.

Also, explore Hawaii's amazing sea life by snorkeling and scuba diving or enjoy fishing. Hike the trails of Nounou (the Sleeping Giant), a Forest Reserve that rewards your effort with views of the entire island. Paddle a kayak up Kauai's Wailua River, one of Hawaii's few navigable rivers and explore the famous Fern Grotto, Secret Falls and the canyons of the Wailua River interior. Golfers appreciate being so close to top-ranked Wailua Golf Course. In the evenings, walk to historic Kapaa Town and enjoy local Hawaiian food and a variety of fine restaurants.

The convenient location of Hale Niu allows easy access to the Na Pali Coast, Princeville and charming Hanalei to the North, Poipu Beach to the South and famous Waimea Canyon to the West.

After a busy day, unwind and relax in the private and peaceful setting of Hale Niu. Sit on the spacious veranda of this traditional Hawaiian-style Kauai vacation rental home and watch the coconut trees sway in a soft tropical breeze.

This property could use a little updating, but was still very comfortable and we loved having all the room to hang out together as a family! I wish we could see the ocean from the front porch.. it was so nice out there! The beach wasn’t that great so we didn’t go there much.. just took a few walks in the mornings. However, it was very conveniently located so I would absolutely recommend this Vrbo! There is so much to do! Thank you for the stay!

Fabulous Location

We loved the central location! It made it so much easier to do activities all over the island. Grocery store right around the corner! Quiet neighborhood! A little warm without air conditioning but lots of fans and the breeze from the ocean made the nights comfortable. Would definitely stay here again.

It was a bit warm during the day inside but the porch offered a continuous breeze and was our go to spot when relaxing. The beach and walking trail were a stone’s throw away. Lots of family memories made! Now having withdrawals from Wailau Shave Ice....the BEST!

Rating Details: The property manager was very 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: The front yard was perfect for family gatherings, volleyball and soccer games. We had a full party of 8 and everyone had space, 3 private bathrooms, and a large functional kitchen. We had access to a washer and dryer which allowed us to stay on top of towels, bathing suits, etc. Great lawn chairs and beach accessories provided which was amazing. We had a fabulous time at this house and its close proximity to the beach was fantastic. Definitely would stay there again

Did not like having to pick up and drop off the house key. House is in major need of an update; ripped carpeting, old showers with hard to regulate water temperatures, old furnishings, and not enough fans. The best thing was the big front yard. We’ve used VRBO on 5 trips to Kauai and this is the first disappointing stay for us.

Very comfortable house! Has one of the best equipped kitchens we've found in a vacation rental.

Perfect beach house for family

We spent Thanksgiving at Hale Niu with our children and their spouses. The kitchen is well stocked with cooking utensils and could use a few courtesy items like coffee filters, foil or spices. We played croquet on the front yard and did yoga. Danced under the moon and stars. Thanks for sharing this little Kapa’a gem!

Best location

Staying at Hale Niu was a great choice for its central location. The 3+ bedroom with 3 baths home was spotless and its size allowed all 5 of us adults to relax and stretch both in and outdoors. The kitchen was wonderfully stocked with dishes, pots and pans and dishwasher and the dining area was delightful. The huge lanai with table and reclining lounges was a favorite! We had a small view of the ocean but ocean access right across the street and beautiful sun rises. Even had a washer and dryer which was very helpful! We loved this home!
