Enchanted Beachfront Home at Beautiful Anini Beach A/C! TVNC-5078

First of all, the home was perfect for a big family. Each En Suite bedroom was roomy and comfortable. The kitchen was large and well equipped. The living area was a perfect pile up conversation pit for our crew, plus a game table was nice. The 2 dining tables for 10 were perfect. The very best part of this place was the windows. Most of the rooms have wrap around tall windows for beach views everywhere. The hosts were intermittently responsive and seemed unaware of some home specifics, were they local? We rented several items (beach, baby equipment) because they stated they were not in the house. We found found lots of extras in the house (3 pack and plays) and garage (snorkels, beach chairs) that the host never mentioned in response to our questions. Also there is a fairly busy road between the house and the beach. The host said it was only traveled by a few folks living down beyond the house. Anini Scenic Drive is advertised from the highway and as a driving option at local resorts. So there were lots of sightseeing vehicles, many turning around in our driveway. We had cars parallel parked in front of the house most of the time on sunny days. Just full disclosure for folks that read reviews. Having said all of that, we'd still rent this rare Anini house if we needed to again. The house, the views, the beach were awesome, just a few issues for clarity for anyone considering this beach place.

Absolutely beautiful house and view!! Our family had the best time snorkeling and enjoying the porch. 10/10

I rated the accuracy of the on-line listing 1 star ONLY because the home EXCEEDED ALL expectations we had. I hosted a family retreat and everyone was blown away. You've thought of everything AND MORE! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

We had an amazing family vacation, enjoying the reefs and snorkeling amongst all the sea life. We saw turtles every day, wales migrating in the mornings with provided binoculars and we even saw a monk seal returning from a trip out to the Napali coast. The house was set up perfectly for cooking meals in and we enjoyed all the comforts of home away from home. The beds were very comfortable and it was a great location to enjoy Hanalei Bay and surrounding areas. We really enjoyed visiting the small town of Kilauea and had some great meals at the gatro pub and the bistro. We will come back and look to stay again on beautiful Anini beach!

It was perfect for our family of 10 from grandparents to grandkids!

So many positive reviews of this home, I am not sure I have much to add. I read all the reviews, and my expectations were high. The home is lovely and met expectations all around. As others have mentioned, the kitchen is extremely well stocked with every gadget/device (even a Lomi!). The garage has every water toy/ snorkel/ sun shade you could need, and a 2nd fridge. And the beds/ pillows were super comfy and high quality. But the star of the show (by far) is the front porch. When not on the beach, we were all hanging on the front lanai. We enjoyed pink sunrises, double rainbows, and tangerine sunsets. It could not be more breathtaking. A few mentions: the home has stunning soft wood floors. They really are exquisite but also delicate, and the rules about the flooring honestly had me a bit paranoid. Plan to bring slippers. The wifi worked well during the day for zoom calls. a/c worked well in the BRs, it was warm in Sept. No a/c in the kitchen but good breeze. Lastly (more the neighborhood vibe) car camping, day and night, is allowed along Anini Road (or if there is a rule against it, it is widely ignored) . We had a mini van camp in front of the house for three days. And there was another camper in front of the home next door. They were very respectful and we had no problems. And just a tip, if you're looking for a boat tour, the Napali Sea Breeze leaves from the boat ramp 2 min away. Basically roll out of bed. Super convenient! Fantastic week.

This place was amazing and has everything you need. Awesome place to stay.

We enjoyed our week at this property. You can tell the host is detail oriented. We did not miss any comforts of home during our stay! Thanks!!

This property was the perfect definition of a hawaii family vacation! The house was set up perfectly for multiple families and we enjoyed the beach in our front yard! We look forward to celebrating here again some day.

Beautiful House great location
