Ocean view house, short walk to beach, lots of extras!

10 out of 10, Traveler Award winner for 2024. Hanalei Bay Villa 26 is one of our most popular Kauai vacation rentals with its great views, short walk to beach, and updated interior. Bail Hai sunset views are just steps away. This luxurious 2br/2ba home at Hanalei Bay Villas is beautiful inside with tiger wood flooring, granite counters, and stainless steel appliances. A newly added extra living room window provides stellar ocean views! On the other side, a shady lanai offers mountain views. It's absolutely perfect for relaxing with a glass of wine as you watch the sun go down and try to count the number of waterfalls you can see cascading down the mountain. With a large electric grill and covered dining area, you'll want to be sure to enjoy an al fresco dinner one evening!

You'll find plenty of room for two to cook together in the newly renovated kitchen. Two bedrooms and two full bathrooms are downstairs. Upstairs are the common areas (living, dining, kitchen) and a half bath. There's a smart HDTV and DVD player in the living room. The master bedroom downstairs has a king bed, ensuite bathroom, smart TV, and private ground level lanai, quiet and surrounded by tropical foliage. Guest bedroom is furnished with a queen bed, has an adjacent full bath, and adjacent laundry area with washer and dryer. Both bathrooms are recently remodeled.

This popular Princeville rental home is ideally situated for exploring the north shore of Kauai. The charming down of Hanalei with its numerous shops, restaurants, and beaches, is less than ten minutes away. Anini Beach is an equally brief drive in the other direction. Or just stroll across the street and take the path to Hideaways beach, walk through the grounds of the lovely Hanalei Bay Resort to yet another nearby beach, or head to the St Regis and take the elevator to beach level. (Tip: walk over to the St Regis at sunset and enjoy a drink at the bar as you watch the sun go down over Hanalei Bay.) Princeville shopping center is just over a mile away if you need to grab some groceries, gas up, or just feel like strolling the shops and sampling the various food offerings. Right across the street is Hideaways Pizza Pub, and nearby Hanalei Bay Resort has an outdoor bar with live music, plus dining options.

For your enjoyment, a selection of beach gear is provided, including beach chairs, snorkel sets, and boogie boards. There's a nice selection of books on Hawaii touring, food and cooking, plants and animals, plus a "lending" library. A selection of DVD's includes movies filmed on Kauai! Other amenities include full kitchen, washer/dryer, free wifi, smart tv, ceiling fans, views, views, VIEWS. Sleeps 4. Both elegant and comfortable, Hanalei Bay Villa 26 is the perfect base for discovering the lush and exotic North Shore of Kauai. Hawaii vacation rental registration number.

As with most homes on Kauai, this vacation rental is NOT air conditioned.

Although this home has internet, the speed and reliability cannot be guaranteed due to the remote location and the service being provided by a third-party.

Ocean view with beauty all around…close to everything we love to do
This was our second stay at this beautiful property. We love the privacy of being in a small, standalone home yet being so close to everything (ocean is across the street, public walking path is a favorite, great restaurants in Princeville and Hanalei, world class hiking, snorkeling at Anini Beach). Home is lovingly maintained with many nice touches. The kitchen is fully stocked. Having a washer and dryer on site is great. King bed is very comfortable.

Lovely property with amazing views!
We have stayed in several of the villas in this collection over the years and the views are unmatched! This unit is lovely and well-decorated, with comfortable beds (we loved that the second bedroom had a large bed vs the two twins that many units have, which are too short for teens/young adults). And the kitchen had everything we needed, too! Our only feedback was that the beach supplies were much less than described, and not in great shape. And it was a bit harder to get ahold of someone to ask questions than anticipated. But overall we loved our stay!

Ocean view house is a great place to unwind and enjoy the north shore. Stores in Princeville are convenient, and Hanalei is a short drive away. The ocean and Mountain views are spectacular, especially the sunsets. The house is very bright and full of Kauai islands vibes. Overall, a real gem.

We loved our stay! The views off the balcony to the mountains and the view off the front porch to the ocean. I can't think of anything I would change the place had everything we needed. We loved Hideaway Beach and it's just a short walk to the trail. Great walking paths for morning runs and walks too. I miss having I already miss having my coffee on the balcony! We will be back

Family stay
We had a wonderful stay at villa 26 with my in-laws. It was perfect for four adults with plenty of space for all of us to spread out and have both personal space and time together upstairs. We spent most of our time when we weren't out and about seeing the sites enjoying the beautiful lanai with the mountain views and night stars. And we loved being so close to the 1 Hotel for morning coffee walks. The property is updated and incredibly clean and well maintained - exactly like the photos! The kitchen is one of the best stocked we have come across in a rental home. We also enjoyed the use of the beach equipment when we went out to enjoy the local beaches. Note to management: A non-stick pan would have been great and one of four beach chairs is broken. Would highly recommend a stay here to any families looking for a great spot to explore Kauai!

Fabulous choice in princeville
This was our 5th trip to kauai and we're definitely north shore fans. And it's hard to beat concenience of princeville. Hanalei bay villas stand apart from all the condos in princeville because theyre standalone units and you really feel like youre in a unique treehouse bungalow on the edge of a tropical jungle. Can't beat those morning coffee views. You're just a quick stroll to a fabulous snorkeling beach and the beautiful new 1 hotel is at the end of the street. The unit was soacious and lovely and we appreciated the beach gear. Mahalo nui loa for a great stay. We'll be back!!

Lovely condo in a lovely spot
We loved Unit #26. It was spotless when we arrived and very nicely decorated. The kitchen very well stocked, the best I have ever experienced in a rental condo. It is perfect walking distance to Hideaway Beach. My husband and I enjoyed many evenings on the lanai taking in the gorgeous mountains and the starry night sky. We would definitely stay at #26 again.

Overall great unit but could use some deep cleaning and upgrades.
Location is beautiful. Variety of kitchen tools, dishes and spices a plus. Told to check in after 3PM or would be fined for early arrival, however unit was not available until 5PM. Outdoor amenities advertised including snorkel equip and beach chairs which were unusable. Window treatments are mildewy on backside in 2nd bedroom and extremely dusty and poorly maintained. Portable Fans and Air filters caked with dust.

Best rental I've ever stayed in
This property was amazing. From the views and amenities to the location and communication with the owner, the entire experience was fantastic. Plenty to see within easy distance from the property and the beaches within walking distance are not to be missed (particularly Hideaways). We can't wait to come back!

Fantastic!
We had a great time during our stay. We would absolutely rent this house again. It was in the perfect location, had everything we needed and was a short walk away from what ended up being our favorite beach (Hideaway). The views from the back were beautiful and we enjoyed all of the little birds that would come to the balcony. The ocean view in the front was gorgeous and perfect for watching the sunset. We will be back!

Incredible house, breathtaking views
I can't imagine having a better location! Beautiful mountain views out the living room windows and the front of the house has gorgeous ocean views and breathtaking sunsets. Everyone drives here to see the sunset and we just walked out the door. Every morning I walked down to the beach, I wish I would have gone snorkeling but I was alone on the walks and didn't feel comfortable going out into the ocean alone. There was a man fishing when I got down there so I guess I wasn't alone. The house was very tastefully decorated and immaculate. It isn't cheap Beach decorations but beautiful original art pieces.. We appreciated that they had some basic spices and all the kitchen utensils we could dream of using and fun dishes. The last night there, we realized they owned every Hawaii movie filmed located in the master bedroom. All of the tours tell about the movies and we were wanting to watch some. They also had several books about Hawaii. We loved reading rhe info and found the books quite helpful. We lucked out with weather. It only rained one morning of our stay. The rest of the time was beautiful! A couple things to be aware of: 1. Queen's bath was closed while we were there 2. The road to Hanalei is only open at certain times. It wasn't too busy when we were there because it was right when they opened the island back up after covid restrictions. By the time we left we noticed very long lines going to Hanalei at the 1pm road opening. 3. You have to reserve a pass to get to Ke'e Beach and the hike. They won't let you in and turn away hundreds of travelers per day. Log in to their website at 6:30 am and get any tickets available and try to book in advance. We didn't get a pass which was the only disappointing part of the trip. We saw plenty of other things though! We loved Tunnels Beach for snorkeling! Rip tides are pretty bad at Secret Beach so don't get caught in those. Thanks again for the beautiful home, we hope to come again in the future!!

The perfect home for a getaway
We had a wonderful week in Kauai and Hanalei Bay Villa 26 provided everything we could have asked for in a getaway home. Check in was effortless, the home is spacious and well-stocked, the beds are very comfortable, and the kitchen was so great for cooking meals. It’s a short walk away from what became our favourite beach of the trip (Hideaway Beach) and conveniently located near the various restaurants/shops near the entrance to Princeville, as well as Hanalei Bay. The property owner was very responsive and kindly granted us a late checkout as we had a late flight. Overall, we had an amazing experience and will definitely be recommending this place to our friends and family. Our recommendations for restaurants in the area are Piazza and Tiki Iniki, and for activities on the island, we were surprised by how much we enjoyed the Allerton Gardens tour (not being the types to go on tours, and with a bit of a higher cost than other activities). Mahalo to the owners for a great stay and we look forward to coming back!

Lovely Hanalei Villa!
My husband and I were pleasantly surprised at how wonderful this condo was. The front view was to the ocean and the back to the Hanalei mountain ridges. The condo came equipped with everything imaginable and things we didn't know we even needed! We also appreciated the extensive and eclectic library collection. There were plenty of resources on various topics to educate visitors about the nuances of the island. The management company was extremely courteous and easily accessible for help to or to answer any questions. There was more than enough room in this villa for us. And it was tastefully decorated and well kept. It felt more like someone's home than a condo. It was super pleasant and we'd definitely stay there again next time we visit Kauai.
