Hale Mano TVNC-5047

We were three couples in the home and had a lovely time. We were able to cook meals, hang out and plan our days without stepping on each other. And the home is truly eight minutes walk from Poipu Beach. The outside furniture is very inviting, increasing the lounging space. The bathrooms are very updated and modern with all amenities. The only negative is the middle room is a pass through room on the way to the bathroom, decreasing those guests privacy a bit. Overall, a wonderful vacation home and the hosts are super communicative and friendly.

The house was exactly as pictured in the listing. Very cute and very well equipped for relaxing meals on the lanai. Appliances worked well. Super well located near the beach and all things South Island. Unfortunately there were some problems that seriously impeded our ability to fully enjoy our experience in this home. In spite of open windows and fans, the center room (with the bunk beds) was very hot all night. In all the bedrooms, ceiling fans and open windows were helpful. What wasn’t great were the roosters crowing starting at about 4:30am until mid morning and the automatic sprinklers that went off around 6:00am. These were not distant sounds but rather they felt like they were inside the home - especially in the front main bedroom. We’ve travelled abroad a lot and experienced lots of animal sounds including braying donkeys, crickets, etc...but this was pretty extreme. There was also quite a bit of early morning car/truck noise from the neighborhood (understandable as people were going to work). Please consider informing guests so they know what they are getting into. Also, please take a look at the pillow situation on the beds (not super comfortable), and the insect situation. Kauai is a tropical island and few ants and flying insects were no problem but other critters - cockroaches - were making your place their home. Yes, We had a great time in Kauai and during our stay in other homes on the island, we were very satisfied. We are not “resort” lovers and prefer to stay in local communities. We liked much about your house but came home needing some quiet sleep!

We had a fabulous stay at this cottage! It had everything we needed, very comfortable beds, and the renovations were very modern and adorable (I want whoever renovated this to come do my house in Boston next!). We really appreciated the quiet, digital ceiling fans, the lovely lanai, and all the beach supplies provided. Our family of five really didn't need anything else. Very convenient location in Koloa, and a 3-minute drive to Poipu Beach, which has something for everyone and ended up being our favorite beach of the trip. Highly recommend this rental.

We loved the space and covered outdoor seating PLUS the thoughtful decorative touches throughout!
Comfortable and everything we needed was provided. Great communication as well.
Location to ocean perfect!

This was a wonderful place to stay for our vacation. Great location and walkable to the beach. The house is clean and has everything you could possibly need for indoor or outdoor use.

This property is on the south shore and within walking distance to the Poipu Beach. We enjoyed this beach and many others on the island. The north shore has great hiking. This rental has a nice patio area and we enjoyed using it a lot. Although we kept the counters and eating area’s extremely clean, there were ants on the counter and wall in the kitchen. The property is in a neighborhood where you are very close to your neighbor and was quite noisy at times.

There were five of us and this was a perfect location. Plenty of space and a great location to beaches and restaurants. The house was very nicely appointed and you can tell great attention was paid to small conveniences.

Hale Mano is now the only place I’d want to stay on the island! Perfectly located - walk to the beach, dinner, surf shop - super clean, stylish in every way, with all the amenities, plus more.

Our family of 5 loved this house! The location (close to the beach in a quiet residential neighborhood) was great. The kitchen was very well equipped and the other amenities (boogie boards, snorkel equipment, towels, coolers) were much appreciated. The manager was very responsive and helpful. We would definitely stay here again.

Our family of 5 had such a great time in and out of the Hale Mano house! Amazing location close to Poipu Beach Park, short drive to Koloa town. Relaxing lanai and great indoor space for families.

We traveled with one other couple and the home was perfect for the 4 of us. The bathrooms and bedrooms were very spacious as was the rest of the home, we also really enjoyed the outdoor areas.The home had all of the amnesties you need and then some, including beach towels, beach chairs, beach bag and coolers etc. The home was so incredibly clean upon our arrival. We loved the abilitly to vent open all of the windows which kept a wonderful breeze coming through the house. Although in walking distance to the beach we chose to take the car to help transport all of our beach gear. There was some construction noise from the house next door so if wanting to stay at this wonderful home be sure to ask about this!

beautiful location with all the amenities

One word: FABULOUS. Like, beyond. We were surprised and delighted with the space. I mean, we knew it was going to be good based on the photos but nothing compares to walking inside for the first time and marveling at the design, endless amenities, and thoughtful guidance from the owners. We were in heaven the whole time. Thank you!

We’re a family of five with a 7 year old and twin 4 year olds and the house was perfect for us. The house has everything we needed and the location is great.

Very. Nice vibe to the wife sent a more detailed review thru VRBO,not sure if you have access to that.

The house is in a neighborhood where you experience daily life of the locals. Location is excellent with a short three minute drive to Poipu Beach, restaurants and markets. The owners have supplied lots of beach gear including umbrellas, chais, towels and coolers.

This property is especially wonderful in that it is located in a very quiet, friendly and close to beaches location. It has a perfect outside Lanai area with multiple options for seating. The kitchen is very well stocked with all the equipment one would need. I especially liked that there were many re-sealable glass bowls to use for left overs and lunches on the beaches and trails. The home has BOTH Solar PV panels and a Solar Thermal (Hot Water) system. These help to offset renters carbon footprint. The beds are very comfortable with extra sheets , etc.
The Washer and Dryer work very well and an optional close line is provided.
I highly recommend this property!!
