Tiki Home - Unique Custom Home Steps to the Beach and Town

If you are staying on Kauai there is not a better location then right in Hanalei. Voted one of the top beaches in the world it truly is one of the most beautiful places you will ever visit. As for homes in Hanalei, you will not find any home like this one. A custom 4500 square foot home with very unique woodwork and artistic funky flair. The open upstairs floor plan is a wide open area of 2400 square feet (the living room is larger than most homes in Hanalei). Custom Ohi'a beams and Tiki carved beams throughout the house accentuate the Island paradise. The house also incorporates lava rock in various locations and kids love the Pirates of the Caribbean like theme. Located on a very quiet cul-de-sac in the heart or Hanalei. This is a prime location, just 700 feet from the world class beach of Hanalei bay and equally close to the town center of Hanalei. The house is at the end of a long driveway set away from the street. Listen to the crashing winter surf, or island birds just outside your window. Partial ocean views from the back deck, and great mountain & waterfall views from the kitchen and living room. High speed redundant WiFi

This is the fourth rental I’ve stayed in in Hanalei, and it was easily the best. The bedrooms were comfortable, the living room is extremely spacious, and the views from the outdoor deck are beautiful. It was also stocked full of kitchen and beach essentials. Can’t recommend it enough!

Our family of six had an amazing time in the Tiki house! We spent a couple of days lounging around in the house as the home and surrounding view of the mountains and plants and trees was enjoyable without having to go anywhere else! The beach is a short walk away and the town of Hanalei is almost around the corner from the house. Dont get me wrong, we did a lot more on our vacation, but coming back home to enjoy the Tiki house was a highlight of our vacation!

Tiki house

Unique home with an awesome open living space on second floor. Great area to hang out with family and a wonderful 360 view of the surrounding area. Plenty of louvered windows upstairs to ventilate house even in July. Location is perfect for access to either the town or the beach.

Our week in Paradise

We came to Kauai with our son and daughter, their spouses and our 2 granddaughters (20 months and almost 3). The Tiki House was perfect for our family. The upstairs is one big open area, with 3 different sitting areas (couches and chairs) and 2 large tables. Lots of room for the little ones to run around. The location is perfect and we had everything we needed, including a wagon to take all the chairs, towels and toys to the beach. The kitchen is large, with so many cabinets and drawers. Every one is labeled and has every gadget and cooking need you can imagine. Wee did eat most dinners in, due to having the little ones. Our kids got to go out on date-nights and we were able to walk to most places. Everything was as described, but even better. Kauai is magical and we decided this will be an annual trip. We may need a bigger house soon, but if not - this will be the place we stay! Loved the roosters that crow at 5:30 every morning. 5:30 is 8:30 PST, so not a big deal! In short: Clean, spacious, well stocked and comfortable.

Good (great?) with some caveats

Great location, super close to Hanalei Bay, which is amazing. House is very cool. Well equipped with chairs, a beach wagon, and an umbrella. Overall a good stay but given how expensive it is, there are some nuances that made us not give it a 5 star review. First, I think generally the owners have good intentions but they're not professional property managers and it shows.There is an infestation of ghost ants in the kitchen and you have to store all food in the microwave or fridge. Apparently this is common practice on the island, but we lost a lot of food we had bought because the owner didn't tell us this. We woke up to lots of tiny ants all in our cereal, cracker, and cookie boxes. Gross. The required check out process is also unnecessarily burdensome on guests. The owners could easily buy a second set of towels/linens/etc. and have the cleaners wash them offsite but instead they require the guests do multiple loads of laundry (wash, dry, and fold). It took hours to do everything, cutting into the remaining vacation. The pillows are flimsy and need to be replaced. While the house is very unique, it is also a bit weird and unsafe. You have to walk up and down steep tiled steps to get into the master shower. I'm 7 months pregnant and felt uneasy doing this, I would imagine this would be a slip/fall hazard for anyone elderly. You're paying a premium for the fact that there are is not a large supply of houses in this area. For us, it was still probably worth it.

Great Family House in Hanalei

We had a wonderful stay at the Tiki home! There were 2 families age ranges from 8 months to 8 yrs… the big open floor plan up on top was great for kids to have room to play. All bedrooms were downstairs which is great if you need some separation for naps etc. and house was outfitted with everything you need for the beach which was very convenient. Hanalei is magical and the house worked very well for us!

Artful, Spacious and Convenient

Our party of seven adults enjoyed the Tiki House from the first minutes of our arrival. We had so much room on the ground floor where the bedrooms, two baths, and the laundry room were. The top floor with its many seating areas, tables and well-equipped kitchen made our relaxing and cooking lots of fun. The views from upstairs complemented Hanalei's natural spenders and watching the birds hovering and landing around the feed was always delightful.We had a great time walking and biking to the beach. Thanks Greg for the beach chairs, bikes and handy beach towels. We found everything we wanted.

The tiki house is a very personally crafted spacious home, with everything you need for your Hanalei stay. The location is ideal, a 5 minute walk to the beach and at the most a 10 minute walk into town. The host was always helpful and responsive. Our family of 6 adults never felt crowded. A well designed kitchen made it a pleasure to prepare meals together. The beds are super comfy.

Perfect paradise

The location of the house was perfectly situated to walk to the beach or town. Open upstairs level meant our family could spend lots of quality time together. Loved that there were adequate hoses to wash off sandy feet before coming into the house. Lots of beach chairs, coolers, towels, and a wagon to bring it to the beach. Also helpful was water to refill our water bottles. Beds were comfy, fans helped us stay cooler at night. Water pressure was great in the showers. It was a unique experience in a uniquely beautiful home!

There's really no other house in the area like this. Such a unique layout and vibe, and you're fully surrounded by trees and sunlight on the gigantic 2nd floor. Plus you're only a short walk from the beach and town if you don't want to drive. Top of our list for the next time we're back in Hanalei.

Great home in great location

Our family of six just stayed at the Tiki Home for seven nights. It was wonderful. There was plenty of space, which allowed us to all spread out. The four bedrooms are all downstairs (with a huge primary bedroom!), and the upstairs is completely open - the kitchen, dining area, and multiple living areas, along with an office area and workout area. I had to work early some mornings, and the layout of the home allowed me to go upstairs and work without disturbing everyone else. No air conditioning, but that was not an issue at all; with the windows open and the many ceiling fans going, it was actually a bit cool in the mornings. The location was perfect. Easy five-minute walk to the beach or to the supermarket/shops/restaurants. Communication with the owner and property manager was quick and easy. We highly recommend!
