Courte distance de marche de la plage et de la ville, vue magnifique sur l'océan et la montagne, maison très spacieuse

In a word, the property and its owner, Anne, are: thoughtful.

Every little detail is well thought out and mindful of nearly any type of vacationer. We were two families (4 kids) staying for 10 days and had a GREAT time exploring the island with this lovely house as our home base. It's spacious, comfortable, clean, and really well stocked with anything needed to relax and enjoy your time on Kauai.

Anne is super helpful and communicative and even checked in periodically to see if everything was a-ok. Indeed, it was. We loved playing shuffleboard, cooking dinners at the house, and frequenting the beach and the town's restaurants and shops - just a few minutes' walk from the house.

Lastly, for those first-timers to Kauai (we were) a piece of advice: bring earplugs if you're a light sleeper and enjoy sleeping past 4am. Roosters abound.

From start to finish, this was a dream property! The owner was accommodating in every way and even helped us think through sleeping arrangements since we were traveling with little ones. Access to beach and town was great with provided bikes, and strollers but we mostly walked. I highly recommend Paulele House (and already have, in fact!).

We felt like we hit the jackpot staying at the Paulele home in Hanalei. There is so much to rant and rave about! I searched for over 6 months before deciding on the Paulele home and man, we are even more convinced there was no better choice for our group! The location is absolutely perfect! The 3 minute walk to the beach is on the quietest part of the beach. It felt like we had paradise all to ourselves while we boogie boarded or rented SUPs, we could just gaze up at the waterfalls from the ocean. We saw so many rainbows we lost track of the count. The home is perfect for multigenerational families, lots of nooks and crannies for everyone to relax. We had 9 nights here and hated leaving! Our 9 year old and 6 year old boys loved the huge backyard, daily shuffle board tournaments and swaying in the hammock.

We have stayed at many vacation homes and by far, this one is the best equipped with quality supplies - even sharp knives and an awesome 3 burner Weber grill, plenty spices, beach toys and snorkeling equipment. It was even stocked with detergent, ziplock bags and q-tips! There were tons of kitchen gadgets (we made lots of fruit smoothies and pina coladas with the blender) and so many board games made it hard to decide which game to play!

The main part of the home does get warm in the July afternoons but the back breezeway and shuttle board areas are cooler and perfect areas to go relax, or just go hop in the ocean or check out a happy hour at one of the local restaurants just a 7-10 minute walk away.

Don’t forget to walk to the Hanalei farmers market on Saturday’s, a beautiful setting with live local music and tons of local product to sample and enjoy.

We also enjoyed walking to the river to go kayaking one afternoon, we only saw a few other people.

Last but not least, the outdoor shower was divine! So refreshing and nice not getting sand inside the home.

We felt like we only scratched the surface of what Hanalei and Paulele have to offer, we are already dreaming of returning one day. Thank you so much, Anne and family for opening your home. We will forever be grateful of the warm memories of our summer in Hanalei. Mahalo!

Wonderful family home in an amazing location on the loveliest island in Hawaii. These Texans missed our air conditioning, but those short walks to Hanalei Bay and that incredibly refreshing beach more than made up for a little noon-time sweat! In short, the Paulele Beach House delivered! Clean, spacious, well-appointed, comfortably furnished, and perfectly located. We chose well. Very, very well. Mahalo, Anne.

Our adult children and their families shared the home for a week and it was perfect. Paulele is across the street from a magnificent white sand beach and a short walk to Hanalei. Everyone could do what they wanted when they wanted, so it was fun for all ages.

The house is gorgeous and has everything anyone would need for a fabulous vacation.
