Anahola Beach Hale By Parrish Kauai - luxury on the beach with AC

Check in was easy with no issues. The house itself is large and well appointed, but there are a few issues that we had with information about the area as well as the air conditioning in the upstairs master was not working, therefore needed repair. It took multiple phone calls to get it finally repaired on the third day. Communication could have been improved during this time to avoid me having to make calls daily. We saw information about the public beach at the property, but don't feel we were adequately informed that vehicles drive on the beach making it dangerous due to some of the actions of those driving. Also it should be noted that the neighbors have multiple dogs that do and will bark as well as visit you sitting outside, which for some wouldn't be a problem but one of our party was deathly afraid of dogs and this hampered her enjoyment of the beach view. I know this is out of the control of the owners of the hale, but again information about this would have helped in our decision making. While the home was mainly clean, there are areas where detail cleaning inside would be beneficial. We did feel that the price paid for our week-long stay made the issues encountered overall impact our enjoyment of the hale negatively.

Home was spotless and refined. Parrish was quick in response to two requests (New Grill, additional sheets) private front and back yards with 2 lanais, and deck. Roomy back lawn and short path throug bushes to the beach.Lots of buggy boards (12) and umbrellas (3)Kitchen had everything but olive oil. Big refrigerator freezer, and two refrigerator drawers. Exceptional!!!

Easy check in, accommodating and great house

The Anahola Beach Hale is beautiful! The house is exactly as described. Its oceanfront location is perfect for anyone looking to stay on their own private beach oasis. The property management concierge was very responsive and communicative. The beach toys and gear are located on the side of the house near the first floor master. Our toddler stumbled upon it on our last day. This wasn’t disclosed to us prior to arrival so unfortunately we found it too late and wasn’t able to use anything during our stay. The only cons (which are out of their control) is the public beach park close by which brings in an interesting crowd. It tends to be loud at night with people wandering very close to the house path from the beach. Made us a little nervous with small kids. Also, the bridge to get to an access road to the house is closed. Phone maps give you two directions to the address, which we weren’t made aware of ahead of time. Again, at no fault of the property management but I would recommend disclosing to future renters prior to arrival as a courtesy.

Our family really enjoyed our time in Kauai. The house was perfect for us. The kids were able to be on the beach in a couple of minutes to boogie board and play in the sand. The backyard is big enough to run and play So nice to be able to just walk out to the beach and not have to drive. There were 7 adults and 4 children in our party.

We were extremely happy to find this house/property was the same beautiful home our family had stayed in 2007. Very comfortable, family friendly and amazing location. We love this place. We will be back!

Our family came together to celebrate the life of one of our sisters. We marked birthdays of two. Four adult couples and the space was perfect. Room to cook and puzzle and sun and laugh! We loved the quiet neighborhood.

The home is lovely - just as in the photos! The beach is an excellent attribute with plenty of space, soft sand and not crowded. The neighborhood is a little less inviting the home is set up to feel private and secluded. Our family of 9 truly appreciated the well-kept rooms, very useable kitchen with quality cookware and appliances, and wonderful views. I am sure everyone would be eager to stay there again. Mahalo!

We had a great time at the Anahola Beach Hale. The house had everything we needed for beach days, cooking, relaxing, and reading. We even had daily visits from the neighborhood dogs. If we come back to Kauai we will stay again! Thanks for the memories.

Neighborhood looks a little sketchy first coming in, but the property is beautiful, and you are walking distance to the beach. You do have to be careful with the locals driving pretty fast on the beach but thankfully we didn't have any issues. The backyard is spacious, and the kids loved running around and then walking over to the beach. The unfortunate part of our stay was the ac unit went out in the downstairs master bedroom mid stay. The bathrooms don't have very good ventilation so that made the bedroom feel that much hotter. That particular room housed my sister, her husband and 3 little ones under 6. We pulled out a couple of fans but we ended up having to put the kids in different rooms just so they were comfortable. The more unfortunate part of it was the lack of communication from the property management. The ac unit went out on Wednesday night, Kevin sent two men on Thursday afternoon, they were supposed to circle back within 40 minutes to check on things which they never did, and the ac unit still wasn't working, I reached out Friday afternoon and then Kevin said they had a call to an ac vendor and then I never heard from anyone after that. We checked out on Sunday, and I did ask for a credit which Parrish did end up giving me a small credit. I get being on an island and trying to find a vendor on short notice doesn't always happen. What I didn't appreciate was the lack of communication. I shouldn't have been the one reaching out every time to get answers.

We loved this property and house. So close to the beach, nice yard. The house had everything you would need, well stocked. Upstairs balcony gave great views. Outdoor shower was a huge hit. We loved it and would stay again.
