Best stay on the western side of the island

I had a fantastic stay at this Waimea rental! The property was spotlessly clean, creating a welcoming and comfortable atmosphere from the moment I arrived. It was well-equipped for all living needs, with everything from kitchen essentials to cozy bedding, making it feel like a true home away from home.The location is absolutely perfect, nestled in a vibrant area with easy access to numerous local attractions—from charming shops to scenic spots, everything was just a short walk or drive away. One delightful bonus was the trees dropping flowers around the property, perfect for crafting leis, which added a special touch to the experience.Check-in and check-out were a breeze, with clear instructions and a seamless process that made settling in and leaving stress-free. For a stay in May, the pricing felt very fair, offering great value for such a well-maintained and conveniently located rental.Highly recommend this Waimea gem for anyone looking for a clean, well-equipped, and ideally situated vacation spot!

Lovely stay

When we booked this stay we knew it was close to a beach and in a a more historic town in Kauai, but it exceeded our expectations. It was great for our toddler and the backyard and outdoor shower were big hits. Steps from the beach, pier, food and a market. The home was clean and had everything we needed with easy check in and out. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting Kauai. Mahalo!

Terrible Location, Nice Place

I re read reviews and no one mentions the location so I’ll start there. Waimea is a cute, rural Hawaiian town. It’s very touristy and local at the same time. It’s not what you’d expect when envisioning your Hawaiian getaway but it was nice to see real Hawaii. That being said, the beach that is steps away had several homeless people there, and less than a football fields away from the place is where they likely slept. The beach is disgusting and given it’s so close to the riverbed completely dirty. Good for fishing but not to enter the water or watch the sunset or anything like that. Fortunately there are several beaches close by.The place itself is nice, and if you are there to get out and see Hawaii it’s a good place to stay. The outside shower was a nice bonus, and the accommodations were perfect in the unit. Beds were comfy too. We were delayed by two hours to check in but the lady cleaning was super nice and had a lot of recommendations. I think the delay was because there was a group there for a long time before our two days.

Great place!

The house was great! Loved the proximity to the beach and central Waimea. The kitchen had everything needed. Beds were comfy, onsite laundry is really helpful and the a/c was great. Having extras like a day trip cooler and ice pack in the freezer really came in handy. A couple of recommendations. A couple of extra blankets in the house would be helpful. One of the beach chairs was quite damaged when we opened it up. Overall we had a great experience! Thank you!

Great Cottage Getaway in Waimea

Our stay in this cottage was quite delightful. It was very clean when we arrived and very well stocked with everything we needed - right down to brand new beach chairs that arrived while we were there. The bakyard patio and yard were delightful. Highly recommend this place for a great stay.

Waimea Getaway

This a great place in Downtown Waimea. If you are planning and doing a few activities on the west side. Waimea Canyon, Kokee S.P. etc. Napoli Coast Boating, Salt Ponds, etc. This is the best location. Walking distance to anything you need and fantastic sunsets on the beach or pier. Also very little tourists. Very Chill. You cannot swim on the beach! Rip curl and Sharks. Just don't. Locals were all very friendly.

Waimea Beach Cottage

Our stay at Waimea Beach cottage was very nice. The hosts provided a helpful book with information, essentials (tp, soap, shampoo, conditioner, towels, sheets) they also provided some beach items (towels, chairs, boogie boards). The kitchen had what we needed to make meals. The outdoor shower was very convenient especially for beach days. The backyard was very spacious and had a cozy covered sitting area. We had various wildlife around the cottage: roosters, chickens, cats, pigs. We were woken up at various times at night and early morning to the sound of roosters sounding off throughout the neighborhood.The grocery store is only a block away, that was a plus. Overall we enjoyed our stay at Waimea Beach Cottage.Thank you for having us!Mahalo!

Quaint beach cottage nicely updated steps to beach

Loved this place! This is what you think of when you say beach cottage. Really comfortable furnishings and tastefully updated. Came with everything we needed like a cooler, beach chairs, etc. the outdoor space was private and serene. The grill and outdoor shower making it even better. Steps to black sand walkable beach and pier. We had zero issues with unhoused people or the restaurant next door. As some people mention in reviews. We felt safe and relaxed and would love to stay here again.

Perfect beach cottage!

What an incredible little VRBO! such an amazing location to cute little Waimea town with shops (including one where you can pick your coconut to drink out of!), Thai food, tacos, and more! the property itself is so nice, you may never want to leave! The backyard is big and beautiful, with an amazing outdoor shower and tub, patio area, and games. there was beach gear of every kind, and everything you need in the kitchen (including coffee!). they had bug spray, hand sanitizer - and what was really awesome for us - HIKING POLES! This saved our life when hiking up in Waimea, which is just 25 minutes away on an easy paved road.wish we could’ve stayed longer- would love to come back on another trip to Kauai!!

This little cottage was perfect for my friend and I to take a girls trip to Kauai. We both love to hike and to explore the outdoors, so the location was perfect.

A short stay in Kauai

My friends and I loved this house. The house provided us with a clean and comfortable place to stay after our adventures on island. The house was located near a grocery store, cafes, shops, and restaurants. We wanted to stay away from the resorts and this was just what we were looking for. The backyard was out of this world. Also be prepared to meet some of the neighborhood cats and chickens, all of which are very friendly.

You can hear the ocean from the front porch and backyard to offer that peaceful relaxation. A few things didn't work but there was plenty of labels to help address most the issues.

Cute cottage

This beach cottage has been updated nicely, has the feel of “grandmas farm house”, and has a great backyard BBQ area. However, the cottage is not secure, with old windows, a kitchen screen type door with slide locks (think bathroom stall) that are hard to open, and a handle lock on the other outer door. It is not in a great location or neighborhood with homeless and encampments on the beach about 40 yards from the property and a loud restaurant located adjacent to the backyard.
