Modern Ocean Views with AC
Our stay was outstanding overall….stunning views, quiet/ private, close to walking path, private beach and the space was well- appointed, comfortable and clean. We loved hearing the waves and watching the sun rise AND set each day— so peaceful. There are stairs to access entryway, but it wasn’t a problem at all and parking was always available. There is a pool to use, just steps away ( also quiet) and all within a short drive to amazing restaurants, beautiful beaches, great hikes, farmers’ markets and lovely Hanalei. We would love to return and highly recommend!

Jewel of the Pacific. Oceanfront condo at Sealodge
Our stay entire stay has been amazing! We explored the Secret Beach, went snorkeling, and even spotted whales from the living room— such a magical moment! To top it off, I captured some stunning Milky Way photos that I’ll treasure forever. This trip and stay has truly been a dream come true. Mahalo for the unforgettable experience!

*Ocean and Mountain Views!* | Lush Hawaiian Oasis
We loved staying in Princeville only 10 minutes to Hanalei. The view is outstanding from morning to night. We really enjoyed the lounge at the resort when we didn’t feel like going into town or cooking, there was live music which was nice. We would stay here again no question. Mahalo!

Comfortable Hale on the north shore
We spent 4 nights at Evans’ place and we had a great time! We could have stayed longer! We though that it js a perfect base to discover the island. The house is beautiful, spacious and clean, we felt right at home. We felt comfortable in the house and we could use the common spaces freely (kitchen, living room, garden). Evans was very helpful and kind. He also offered us great local tips (for beaches, hikes, restaurant), he gave us beach towels, a beach blanket and trekking poles. His flatmate Collin is also very nice and friendly. Princeville where the house is located is a lovely and calm place. In the mornings/evenings we sometimes went for a walk in the neighborhood. At the moment there are albatross babies in the neighborhood which was quite special. We hope to return one day and can highly recommend this accommodation to anyone else!

Hale Luya-Ocean front, beach path, sunset views
Wonderful place for a family vacation. Has everything you need for a beach holiday and fully stocked kitchen is a huge plus. Great view!

Big Ocean Views, Pool, KING bed, AC, WiFi, 132
Tom’s updated room was perfect for us. The walk-in shower, a/c, counter space, and two mini fridges were great. The parking pass was conveniently located on the counter in the room. We loved being close to the ocean, pool, tiki bar, and grilling area. We were always able to find a lounge chair on the beach and pool. People walked regularly on the sidewalk in front of us, but we expected that and felt far enough away. The landscaping at the resort was beautiful and many of the plants were labeled. The plants around our room provided privacy by the side window and even the patio area. We took advantage of the water bottle re-fill station by the front desk in the lobby, as well as Coconut Marketplace, which was steps away, for their restaurants, shops, and ABC store. We would not hesitate to recommend this Airbnb to family and friends.

Beachfront home rentals with a pool

New! Poipu Kapili: Ocean Views; New Central Air
Such a beautiful place the enjoy Kauai. Well equipped with everything we needed to head to the beach or stay in to grill. The pool was a perfect oasis to rest and plan the day. We took advantage of the pickle ball court as well! The placement of the condo was perfect to enjoy the ocean view, pool access, grill and the gate leading to walkways and the sunset view. We'll be back!

2BR Oceanfront | Patio | Pool |
Puu Poa did not disappoint! The condo was spacious with great views of the ocean.

Sea and Sky Kauai, an Oceanfront Penthouse
So nice to stay here again! Everything was perfect. The house is so clean and organized. We spent a wonderful week here relaxing and listening to the waves. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home.

Upscale Luxury - 2 Master Suites
My fiancée and I stayed here while exploring Kauai and it’s by far our favorite airbnb! It’s always a great feeling when the airbnb is even nicer than the photos. We loved drinking our morning coffee and walking outside to enjoy one of the best views Kauai has to offer. The airbnb is in a great location and was clean, quiet and relaxing. It’s close to beaches, shops, restaurants and hiking trails - which we enjoyed everyday. We explored the entire island and Princeville is by far our favorite area. We will definitely stay here again!

Ocean View, Beachfront Townhouse 2bd/2ba/2 lanai
Vicky was incredibly helpful before we arrived and during our stay. Her area recommendations were spot on and super helpful. She helped us find a few hidden gems in the area, and reinforced an idea we already had on our list of things to do. She handled a hiccup on the first day with quick communication, grace and kindness. The condo unit is exactly as described, in perfect shape, has all that we needed and more. Super convenient to use the beach chairs and boogie boards and condo unit provides beach towels- all to make the experience easier for travelers. We appreciated the oceanfront location, sound of the waves, views, proximity to snorkeling / lifeguarded beach at the park right next door. The location also makes an easy drive both north to Hanalei Bay and south/west to poipu and or Waimea canyon. Instructions for the house were perfect and spot on. We enjoyed our stay and would love to come back. When we do, we will absolutely stay here again.

Kauai Sunrise Central ON the Beach!
Michelle's place is in a perfect location near the airport and in between Hanalei to the North and Waimea to the Southwest. Walkable to the local Safeway and several restaurants and food trucks. We especially loved hearing the ocean waves 24/7 and watching the sunrise from the balcony every morning. The amenities, including the Washer/Dryer, are topnotch so don't be afraid to pack light. Michelle was easy to contact and very friendly. Would absolutely book again.

Poipu Sands Beach Villa
The space was exactly as described, and better maintained than your average airbnb spot. The patio provides a satisfying ocean breeze while the indoor portable A/C units catch up. The location was also great for walks along the shoreline, with <5 minutes drive to spots in poipu. Will definitely be back again if we're in the area.

Walk to Beach | Pool, Gym, Lanai
Throughly enjoyed our stay! Beautiful accommodations, fully stocked kitchen & unit! (needs tongs & a potato peeler though!) The pool was peaceful and beach just a quick walk away. The blinds let in a lot of light, so if you need to nap a baby- it’s very challenging. There is so much space here & the patio is amazing. Lots of comfortable furniture. Highly recommend!

New! Oceanfront Haena Cottage - Steps to the Beach
Wow... just the best. Beautiful spot, clean, very quiet, super accommodations inside and Kristina is awesome. This was on our bucket list and it didn't disappoint. Doug & Kim, Bloomington Illinois.

Breathtaking oceanfront views walk to beach condo
My wife and I enjoyed staying at this condo. We have stayed at Hanalei Bay Resort in the past and enjoy the natural beauty and location of the complex itself. This lower level unit has amazing views, a great lanai, and is furnished with almost all the things you would hope to have. A boogie board would have been an added bonus. The only thing I think others may want to know before renting this unit is that there is a door that passes through to another unit next door. The door was closed for our stay, but we could hear the neighbors comings and goings and conversations very clearly. Fortunately, during our stay, the neighbors were considerate of this and it wasn't much of an issue. Overall I would highly consider renting this unit again.

Your own private oceanview Cottage 16 C
It’s a clean and spacious for 4 adults, and a nice location- walking distance to the beach. The kitchen is fully stocked with appliances for what we need. Also plenty of beach towels and beach chairs, inflatable tubes. My daughter loved sleeping with the sound of beach waves. Susanne responded to my questions quickly and kindly.

Blissful Beachfront Condo! (2BR)
Very comfortable apartment. Met our expectations from the description. A convenient location to be able to drive around the island. David provided helpful suggestions of things to see and do. Both bedrooms were very comfortable but it is worth noting that for light sleepers, the front bedroom can be noisy due to people coming and going in the car park and the main road traffic. Also to be aware that the second bedroom is connected to the living room by a screen door which does not cut out light or noise if someone is up or watching TV.

The Best Beachfront Hale on Kauai
The ocean sound throughout the place was amazing! Loved the backyard. Great beach and location!

Penthouse Luxury Oceanfront, Third Floor
LaniKai #131 is absolutely beautiful. A lovely condo that is very private (only about 18 units total) we felt right at home & although there were others around. A lot of the time we had the pool or community areas to ourselves. The coconut marketplace was walkable (maybe a block) & you could do shopping, pick up basics from the ABC store or grab dinner at the restaurants. The beach was beautiful and had nice safe areas for kids. Many times we walked along the shore & path to Lava Lava for happy hour or breakfast. The condo itself was absolutely perfect. The finishes were beautiful and made us feel at home. I like to unpack and there were truly many storage areas & hooks, in the bedrooms and bathrooms that were very thoughtful for guests. & the whole home A/C was much appreciated since we come from a cooler climate. There were also many outlets that made for easy charging of electronics. & we loved the seating in the main room for everyone to spread out. We definitely plan to return!!

Oceanfront Harmony- 4 Bds On the Beach! TVNC 4247
Enjoyed the most mellow and relaxing vacation with my adult children. We walked daily on the great pathway and took in the blue ocean and the peaceful setting. The neighborhood was quiet and what I expected. We enjoyed eating at all the wonderful local places within a casual 20 minute walk. It was rainy this time of the year so sometime we just stayed and chilled in the awesome living room. The house is old so it has its charms but it felt like going to a beach house. There are plenty of windows and we slept with them open and it was very windy at night so we didn’t miss the a/c at all. We are from the Pacific Northwest, my son said he was surprised that 72 degrees could feel so cold and it was funny to see him wear his puffy jacket at times. Anyone staying here in the spring should probably bring a jacket because the wind and moisture can make it feel a lot colder than it should be due to being right next to the ocean. This is an excellent location overall.

Hideaway Cove 2 Bedroom with Ocean View
We had a very enjoyable stay and loved staying at Taejo's place. And appreciate host/owner's response to updating photos for the view and living room.
