  Brenna B from INDIALANTIC, FL recommends this vacation rental

  This house was nothing short of amazing! Perfect location, steps to Hanalei Bay and easily walkable to all restaurants and shops on the main road. The house itself was top notch - I couldn't believe all of the high end touches. GE Cafe appliances, Caraway cookware, designer bedding - so many thoughtful and beautiful touches throughout the whole home. Beds were super comfortable and the outdoor space was great for lounging and eating with the family. We used the hot tub every evening, and the outdoor shower was great after long beach days. It was also so well stocked with beach chairs, a cooler, umbrellas and even a surf board that my husband used. The rental company was very communicative and easy to work with - this is our second time staying in one of their homes and we will definitely stay again! A perfect rental house for a perfect trip!

  • Manager Responded on 6/9/2025

    Thank you for your wonderful review! We're so happy you enjoyed the location, amenities, and thoughtful details of the house. It's great to hear you took advantage of the beach gear and hot tub.

  The location was perfect, very close to the beach. The house itself was excellent—very new, well-ventilated, and easily accessible. The layout was great, making the space very comfortable. Everything went smoothly during our stay. The only minor downside was the plumbing, which could be slightly better. Overall, a fantastic place to stay!

  Morgan K from San Diego recommends this vacation rental

  We loved our stay at this beautiful home. It was bright, clean, modern, and steps away from the beach and shops/restaurants in town. It also had all the amenities we needed to making our stay comfortable, from a Vitamix blender and Caraway pans in the kitchen, to cozy towels and bedding, it felt very intentional, making the stay feel cozy, and like home. Also, the landscaping is so stunning, we could enjoy hours on the deck eating, and relaxing, as we took in the breathtaking lush gardens around us. I would highly recommend staying here if you want a serene escape, without sacrificing comforts and amenities.

  a guest from Carlsbad, CA recommends this vacation rental

  Our family of four (2 adults, 2 teens) spent an unforgettable 6 days at One Hanalei. It was the perfect setup for us. When traveling, the space we stay at is very important to us as we enjoy our time lounging in the mornings with our coffees, cooking in the evenings, and soaking in the local energy. This home checked all the boxes for us. So much aloha and good vibes have been put into this beautiful home. You can tell the owners love their home here in Hanalei. Steps from the most beautiful bay. And those those mountain views! Still pinching ourselves! We can't wait to return one day soon!

  • Manager Responded on 8/10/2024

    We loved hearing that you had a wonderful stay at One Hanalei! Yes, the owners love it here and we enjoy helping all have a seamless vacation rental experience. We would love to host you and your 'Ohana in the near future again. Return soon!

  Clean, spacious, well-appointed and comfortable house, with beautiful grounds and lots of beach amenities. Location is half a block off Weke Road, so it’s close to everything, but no road or traffic noise. Great a/c, new appliances (installed the day we arrived!), comfortable beds, good linens, the works. Easy booking, check-in and departure.

  We had 6 of us at the One Hanalei house. Light, bright and airy. Everything was very clean and the beds were very comfortable. The shed was stocked with good beach chairs, boogie boards, beach umbrellas and a wagon. It was everything you would need to go to the beach. I loved that the beach access was incredibly close-a 90 second walk!
  We were delighted with the location.

  This house was a great place for our family to stay! House and kitchen were stocked well and nice and clean! They had a great selection of beach gear and a nice yard and porch to enjoy when hanging at the house! Perhaps the best feature of the house was the foot shower in the front yard which was perfect to get off all the sand from the beach! I do wish there were a few more instructions left for the stove and the AC.

  • Manager Responded on 8/17/2023

  a guest from Laupahoehoe, HI recommends this vacation rental

  My wife, some friends, and I stayed here for a long weekend getaway from the Big Island. We had a fantastic time and the house was clean, as depicted, and the location is excellent. The kitchen had a good amount of pots/pans (and now has a couple 9 inch cake rounds that we added to the mix).
  
  We had two minor quibbles that I bring up not because we are not satisfied, but so that the owners are aware. First, some of the fans appear to be on the same channel, and changing the settings upstairs can affect the master bedroom. Second, the grill looked pristine, but would not get very hot and the flame pattern was inconsistent; I think the burners have reached the end of their life and need replacement.

  We picked this home for a few specific reasons. First, it was close to the beach. And it was. We walked down through Waioli Beach Park every day and when we forgot something like a refreshment we easily walked back the 3-minute stroll. Second, it had enough beds. There was a master downstairs and three up. They aren't huge rooms but you shouldn't be spending a lot of time in bed if you're at Hanalei Bay! Last, it was clean and looked unique - which it was. We would totally come back here again and see this property out. You won't be disappointed.

  You cannot beat this location for the price. We were steps from the beach in a quiet , residential neighborhood. The home was really well equipped for families who want to cook,do laundry and bring beach equipment to play or sit under umbrellas. It was clean and had great bathroom and beach towels. Management company put an AC unit in for us because of construction next door, which wasn't really that bad at all. Only drawback was that it didn't cool down much even with fans until the evening, but it was unseasonably humid and hot for our stay. This place is worth the money and budget friendly for Hanalei.
