Elegant Tropical Villa w/ Ocean & Mountain Views - Walk to Beaches & Dining!

10 out of 10, Traveler Award winner for 2024. Hanalei Bay Villa 26 is one of our most popular Kauai vacation rentals with its great views, short walk to beach, and updated interior. Bali Hai sunset views are just steps away. This luxurious 2br/2ba home at Hanalei Bay Villas is beautiful inside with tiger wood flooring, granite counters, and stainless steel appliances. A newly added extra living room window provides stellar ocean views! On the other side, a shady lanai offers mountain views. It's absolutely perfect for relaxing with a glass of wine as you watch the sun go down and try to count the number of waterfalls you can see cascading down the mountain. With a large electric grill and covered dining area, you'll want to be sure to enjoy an al fresco dinner one evening!

You'll find plenty of room for two to cook together in the newly renovated kitchen. Two bedrooms and two full bathrooms are downstairs. Upstairs are the common areas (living, dining, kitchen) and a half bath. There's a smart HDTV and DVD player in the living room. The master bedroom downstairs has a king bed, ensuite bathroom, smart TV, and private ground level lanai, quiet and surrounded by tropical foliage.

Right across the street is Hideaways Pizza Pub, and nearby Hanalei Bay Resort has an outdoor bar with live music, plus dining options.

Beautiful villa in a scenic location with breathtaking views of the mountains from the main floor balcony and an ocean view from the front porch. The house is tastefully decorated, spotlessly clean with very comfortable beds. The owners have gone above and beyond to make sure the house is well stocked to meet every need. We appreciated the beach equipment and the fully stocked kitchen. Probably the nicest accommodations we’ve ever had through vrbo. We will definitely stay there again if we return to Kauai.

Stunning!!

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: Absolutely wonderful! Zero issues! The house was well stocked; even had a coffee bean grinder which was a must. The location, although far from several must sees on the island, is phenomenal and I don't know how we'd stay anywhere else if we visited Kauai again. We loved everything about it.

This was an awesome spot for our time in the North! We were directly across from the cliff where you could see whales and a sunset. It was easily walkable to Hideaway Beach and walkable into Princeville for meals and shopping. I loved sitting on the balcony for morning coffees while listening to the birdsong. The unit was very well equipped with beach supplies and kitchenware. It wasn’t missing anything.

Stunning views all around! This was hands down the nicest and most well appointed rental that we have ever stayed in. It had everything from spices in the kitchen to beach chairs/umbrellas, binoculars, a telescope and even medical and emergency supplies. The villa was extremely well maintained, the host was excellent about communicating, and we can't wait to return.
