Beyond our wildest dreams

by Steve

We absolutely loved our stay at this property in Haena. The location, the view, and the overall comfort made it feel like a true retreat. It was even better than described — peaceful, well-maintained, and incredibly relaxing.One unexpected bonus: cell service was basically nonexistent on the property, which turned out to be a gift. We were happy to be fully disconnected from phone calls for a while. That said, the Wi-Fi worked perfectly, so we had everything we needed.The host was great with communication. We made the mistake of not downloading the property guide ahead of time, and since we didn’t have service when we arrived, we had to drive out to access the lockbox info — totally on us, not the host. Once we got in, everything was smooth sailing.We’d absolutely recommend this place and would return in a heartbeat. Mahalo for a beautiful experience!

What a wonderful experience! Mahalo for the fantastic review!

Very Nice

by Curt

Very nice place. Quiet, peaceful, well equipped and a great spot to go to the beach and enjoy a day of sunshine and sand. 

Mahalo for the wonderful review! We're glad you enjoyed your stay with us and look forward to hosting you again.

Perfect stay, perfect location

by Deborah

Just a five minute walk from secluded Kepuhi Beach on Kauai's North Shore, the Hale Ko'olau Treehouse is by far my favorite lodging on Kauai, and quite possibly all of Hawaii. This one bedroom apartment shares a spacious fenced compound with a larger rental dwelling, but we never heard any noise from the other guests or nearby neighbors. Mountain views from our spacious living room were fantastic, and two high quality and quiet ductless A/C units kept the heat and humidity at bay during an especially steamy Labor Day week stay. The kitchen was very well equipped, and we enjoyed both the upstairs and downstairs outdoor furniture as venues for the meals we cooked. High quality beach gear with a location enabling 2 minute drives to much prized Tunnels Beach parking made Hae Koo'lau a perfect stay for a couple of snorkelers.

 

Mahalo for staying with us and the excellent review! We look forward to hosting you again!

Amazing home

by Fernando
The tree house was lovely and well situated to the beach. It was very private and mountain views were great. The deck was perfect for enjoying a morning coffee while taking in the natural environment and all the fun birds in the area. The place was clean and well-equipped and the beach accessories were great to have available to use. We very much enjoyed our walks on the beach and reaching Tunnels by foot , our favorite beach by far, was quite easy... about 15 minutes or so. Makana's digital guide app to navigate Hanalei and the North shore was spot on! What an amazing added touch. Of all our trips to Kauai, this has been our favorite place to stay to date. We definitely plan to return soon! Thank you Makana for providing such a lovely place. We created some truly memorable experiences! Miss it already!

 

We loved hosting you! Mahalo for the 5-star review!

Absolutely loved the place and was so grateful for the chance to stay in Haena, one of the most beautiful communities I've ever visited. It's a deeply special place, and so is this property.
Mahalo for the kind review! We're so glad you enjoyed the special space. Please come back again soon!

Excellent remote escape

by Thomas

We enjoyed our week stay in Haena. The property is well positioned and cared for and makes an excellent home base for a remote stay in Kauai. The manager did respond timely to our need of additional coffee filters and attempted to get the front door lock to work (to no success). The neighborhood was nice - the local rooster will ensure you are awake early!

 

We’re so glad you enjoyed your stay with us! Sorry we couldn't get the door to work properly but it's fixed now. Mahalo for the review!

Memorable stay

by Gene
My wife and I had a wonderful stay at this property. It was very clean and very quiet. The beach was walkable. The kitchen was well stocked with every cooking implement we could think of. Property management was kind, prompt, and responsive. There were no surprises. We truly enjoyed this memorable stay.

 

We loved hosting you! Mahalo for the 5-star review!

A Great Treat

by Gene R.
The rental description says it all. The only addition I would make is "it's quiet!". There are no surprises. Its easy to get in. Its easy to park. Its easy to walk to the beach. The property is well capitalized; the kitchen has all the pots and pans and plates and glasses you need. It has a rice cooker and both kinds of coffee makers. The management company responds to queries rapidly and kindly. They have beach chairs and boogie boards.
Thank you Gene for staying at The Tree House. Happy to hear you enjoyed your time in Haena. Mahalo Makana Kauai Properties

Awesome rental

Everything was great: location, the place, the amenities furnished. Would love to stay here again.

Spacious, Beautiful, Comfortable

A second-story 1-bedroom apartment on stilts, on a property shared with two other, larger homes (all detached). During our stay ours was the only occupied home on the property. The home is beautiful and comfortable with all the amenities you would hope for (kitchen, laundry, etc), and in close proximity to Tunnels Beach. It’s a bit off the beaten path up here on the north shore, but that’s the appeal. There is a hotel/restaurant in walking distance if you’d like a night out. Keep in mind that the drive out here is long and traverses several one-lane bridges, so be prepared for traffic. Only complaint: the roosters will wake you up EARLY. If you’re a night owl you might want someplace that’s better soundproofed.
Mahalo for the review! We're glad you enjoyed your stay with us and look forward to hosting you again!

Wonderful secluded property

by Karen L.
I thoroughly enjoyed my vacation at this wonderful property. The location was perfect for me, just a short walk to a beautiful, almost deserted beach. The property was beautifully appointed with lovely decor, extremely clean with a well equipped kitchen providing everything you could possibly need. If you are looking for a more secluded vacation await from the more touristic areas, this place is perfect . The host was extremely receptive and helpful. Would definitely return if lucky enough. Highly recommend.
Mahalo for the great review! We look forward to hosting you again!

5 * experience at the Treehouse

by MATTHEW A.
My wife and I could not have been more pleased with this hidden gem. Our first trip to Kauai, I was not certain where to stay, we found the perfect place. Couldn't have picked a better location.
The Treehouse itself was perfect for us. All the amenities, lots of space, quiet, private(there was Noone in the main house). Close to beaches, fun drive to get there and the views were amazing. I would recommend this to all my friends, acquaintances or anyone looking for a couples getaway to Kauai.
Mahalo! We enjoyed hearing that you had a wonderful vacation and we agree the treehouse is a special gem. We look forward to hosting you again! Mahalo for the 5-star review!

Perfect for a much needed getaway

This property was perfect for a much needed romantic getaway. We felt like locals during our stay and could imagine living on the property. it’s tucked away in a residential neighborhood and a short walk to a public beach entrance. Very quiet and serene. It rained during half of our stay, but we loved hearing the rain on the rooftop and feeling like we were in a tropical rainforest. The views of the mountain were amazing. The windows and skylights let in so much light. Everything was clean and tidy, intuitive and easy to find. We made use of the beach towels and the aloe stored in the hall closet. It was definitely a pleasant surprise to find that after a day on a boat and a pretty good sunburn. The shower was cool and comfortable, and extremely moody. The towels were soft and fluffy. I’d like to purchase a set of the sheets that were on the bed. They were so nice and cozy. I’m so glad we chose this property over other options. We felt we had much more comfort, space and privacy. Instructions and tips for our stay were clear and well defined. Light switches were all clearly labeled so we’d know what is what. The garbage cabinet was a little hard to open, but a strong tug would usually do the trick. The kitchen was well supplied and stocked with useful utensils, appliances and dishes. The idea of Crossing the bridges to the residence caused us some anxiety, but it really is such a breeze to figure out. Most drivers we encountered followed the courtesy rules, and followed posted speed limits. With only a two lane(sometimes one lane) road in the area, we were forced to let go of our aggressive, frantic SF city driving expectations and really slow down, chill, enjoy the scenery and live in the moment. It was a welcome reprieve. We want to thank Makana Kauai Properties for a 5 star vacation stay!

Mahalo!
Mahalo for the excellent review! We're glad you enjoyed your stay at the Treehouse and we look forward to hosting you again!

Lovely magical escape

Had a fantastic 5 days in February end.
Weather and accommodations were perfect. Comfortable bed. Gorgeous kitchen and bath. Need to bring your own oils and spices if you plan to cook.
Location was lovely and remote. 5 min walk to long walkable beach.
Had a lovely time. Watch for the early AM roosters. Bring your ear plugs.
Thank you for the review! We hope to host you again! Mahalo nui loa, Makana Kauai Properties

Amazing Magical Hone

by Cyndi B.
We had an incredible experience staying at Makana Kauai properties. The treehouse was immaculate and exactly as described. The staff was attentive when we needed something and extremely responsive. It is exactly as pictured and a real gem of a property. Highly recommend this company and this home for a magical visit to Kauai.
Thank you for the great review! We look forward to hosting you again. Mahalo nui loa, Makana Kauai Properties

Highlight of our vacation!

by Jordan J.
Our stay in the Haena treehouse was the highlight of our vacation to the Hawaiian islands! We split our accommodations between 4* and 5* hotels and rental properties to get a good variety. The treehouse blew the others away! The unit itself is beautiful and it is located in an idyllic neighborhood far away from the flocks of tourists. It is a convenient walk to Tunnels beach and other attractions like Limahuli Gardens and the state park. At night the stars are wonderful since you are so far removed from any light pollution. Stay here if you want a magical experience during your Hawaiian vacation!
Aloha Jordan! We are thrilled to hear that our home was the highlight of your vacation. Mahalo for your 5-star review and for being lovely guests. Return soon, The Makana Kauai Team

A wonderful and beautiful place!

by Alexander K.
Perfect location just a walk away from fantastic beaches on Kaua‘i‘s north shore. The tree house was bigger than it looked like on the pictures. It was impeccably clean when we arrived. Communication was excellent, super quick responses. Lots of beach gear available, and if you have a bigger party you can also rent the bigger house on the same property. Both share a nice lush green garden for kids to play!
Happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Haena Tree House!

Incredibly Relaxing Stay at Haena Tree House

by Jane G.
We were delighted to stay at the Haena Treehouse for 4 days in December. It was the perfect escape for my husband and I. Just what we needed after a long 2020. The house was perched up high which gave us that idyllic jungle-treehouse feeling as well as a gorgeous view of the mountains from the living room and master bedroom. I opened my eyes each morning to a view of the rich deep greens of the sheer mountains and a tumbling waterfall. It was absolute magic! The lanai off of the master bedroom was a perfect and serene place to have our morning coffee while enjoying the breathtaking views and the sound of the waves crashing in the background. The space was meticulously clean and very comfortable with AC in both the living room and the bedroom, though we barely used it because it was on the cool side while we were there. The wooden jealousies open up for a generous breeze, which we prefer over AC, but it was nice to have both options. The jealousies give the option to create an open feeling to the space by opening the windows or closing them to give more privacy. The only house really visible is the main house next door, which was not occupied during our stay so we kept them open most of the time. Tunnels Beach (which is a 2 minute drive/ 5 minute bike ride / 10 minute walk away from the Haena Treehouse) is my favorite beach on the planet! It has to be one of the most beautiful places one can experience. Even the rainier days were enjoyable as we could read and hangout comfortably in the covered outdoor lounging spaces. The outdoor BBQ area was great with a beautiful yard space and some cushy chairs. The kitchen was very well equipped and we were happy to be able to cook all weekend since there weren’t too many restaurants open in Hanalei. The beach equipment was also brand new and we were stoked on the cooler provided. We did not want to leave and we are excited to come back again with a larger group to also enjoy the main house next door. It's an amazing prop
Mahalo nui loa, Jane! We're very glad you had such an enjoyable stay at Haena Treehouse. We enjoyed hearing that this vacation home was a perfect escape for you and your husband. Please come back again soon, we would love to host you and yours in the near future.
