    Great place close to Tunnels beach. The garden around the house was incredible. It was so well maintained. We enjoyed our stay and will be back for sure.

    At the Tiki Hut you feel like you have really escaped from your ordinary life. The gardens are beautiful and tranquil, filled with birds, tropical flowers, green geckos and anoles. The living room lanai is a serene start to the day with morning coffee and the bedroom lanai and hot tub a perfect, relaxing bookend to each day. It is perfectly situated by Tunnels Beach near the end of the north shore road but close enough to Hanalei and Princeville for dinners out and exploring. The Tiki Hut has everything someone would need and more, for cooking, relaxing, hiking and beach days. I don’t want to go into detail so you can be as surprised as I was at Toni’s attention to every detail. Toni is a lovely person and has a genuine desire to make every visitor’s experience as perfect as possible. Her sweet dog Samson would greet us daily and spend relaxing times with us on the lanai. We are already scheduling our calendars to return next year.

    Our 9th trip to Kauai and this is the BEST place to stay if there’s only the 2 of you. Great Robes , hot tub, comfy bed, walk to tunnels, really well-stocked ( host even replaced Weber grill when I mentioned it could use some TLC! …. Now THAT’S being super responsive!) the garden and peaceful setting are unsurpassed. All beach supplies provided. Toni is just the loveliest host and example of true Aloha. Very hard to leave but we hope to be back, or at least toDream of this oasis in cold times at home. Thanks Toni and Samson the greeter-pup!

    The Tiki Hut is the perfect secluded slice of paradise for anyone looking for a quiet tropical beach getaway. Toni’s property and gardens are pristinely manicured for you to sink into island time and enjoy your stay on the beautiful island of Kauai. My wife and I truly enjoyed our extended stay at the property. It has all of the amenities someone would need, easy 5 min walk to tunnels beach for the best snorkeling on the island, and the best greeter/guard dog out there. We cannot wait to come back and visit!

    We loved our stay. The garden surroundings were out of this world! I could go on and on about this topic alone… Toni and Samson made us feel so welcome. The tiki hut was spotless, and appointed with touches that made it feel like we were in a home rather than a rental. The location is perfect for a beach holiday, just 5-10 mins walk down a path to one of the best beaches on Kauai.

    Overall, I rate everything a 10. Toni was absolutely the best host I have encountered at a VRBO. She wanted to make sure your stay was comfortable and that you had everything you needed for a perfect getaway. The location is safe, secure, beautiful, quiet and felt like you were living in a manicured jungle.

    Two weary travelers arrived at the Tiki hut to be greeted by a basket of local goodies and a chilled bottle of wine in the refrigerator. We knew we were in the right place. We loved our stay at the tiki hut, with morning breakfasts on the back porch, enjoying a visit from Samson, a friendly black lab and the official greeter. Evenings were spent relaxing in the hot tub with a glass of wine after a day of touring Kauai. Toni has created a beautiful, relaxing oasis with comfortable bedding and everything you need for a day at the beach, in a spectacular setting. A quick walk takes you to tunnels Beach with spectacular views, and great snorkeling. We will be back.

    Everything we could have imagined and more! Comfortable accommodations and lots of beach amenities (chairs, umbrella, cooler, etc) just a few minute stroll to our favorite beach on the island…we’ll definitely be back!

    The Tiki Hut is in an amazing location just a short walk away from (in our opinion) one of the best beaches in kauai. Though it is a drive to get to stores and restaurants, the privacy and seclusion you get it worth it. Toni was a wonderful host and made us feel most welcome as did Sampson her amazing dog. The garden surrounding the tiki hut is truly amazing and provided us hours of lizard and bird watching from the two porches.
