Due to late booking, we used three locations for our vacation which actually worked perfectly as we focused our outings by area. This location in North Shore was by far our favorite. The highlights were right across from the most amazing sunset, while the other side of the house had complete opening into the views of the mountains, which came with rainbows and numerous birds. Absolutely perfectly clean, everything worked very well, we even got to use the grill on one of the nights on the balcony, which was very convenient and homey. Also best of all, we were able to walk to the best snorkeling beach on Kauai in our opinion which was Hideaways beach. Also a lovely walk to the 1 Hanalei hotel and its restaurant as well as lovely views into the Hanalei Bay. Look forward to going back. PS the washer/dryer were perfect for the Red dirt there 🙂
