Tiki Home was voted one of VRBO's Vacation Rentals of the year for 2026. The only one in the state of Hawaii and one of only 15 vacation rentals nationwide!

If you are staying on Kauai there is not a better location then right in Hanalei. Voted one of the top beaches in the world it truly is one of the most beautiful places you will ever visit. As for homes in Hanalei, you will not find any home like this one. A custom 4500 square foot home with very unique woodwork and artistic funky flair. The open upstairs floor plan is a wide open area of 2400 square feet (the living room is larger than most homes in Hanalei). Custom Ohi'a beams and Tiki carved beams throughout the house accentuate the Island paradise. The house also incorporates lava rock in various locations and kids love the Pirates of the Caribbean like theme. Located on a very quiet cul-de-sac in the heart or Hanalei. This is a prime location, just 700 feet from the world class beach of Hanalei bay and equally close to the town center of Hanalei. The house is at the end of a long driveway set away from the street. Listen to the crashing winter surf, or island birds just outside your window. Partial ocean views from the back deck, and great mountain & waterfall views from the kitchen and living room. High speed redundant WiFi

    The Tiki House was great for our two families. Huge living area upstairs, all the amenities we could need for home or beach and just a 5 minute walk to downtown Hanalei or the beach. No complaints whatsoever and would love to stay again.

    Great Location, Upstairs living area is actually bigger and more open that it even appears in photos. We were a group of 2 families and had way more space than we could use. There were 2 additional families staying in a nearby home and we could easily accommodate all 4 families for dinner or an escape from a passing rain shower.

    We really enjoyed our week at Tiki Home. The 4 bedrooms downstairs were all sparkling clean, spacious and comfortable. The upstairs great room was a fun and comfortable place to spend time, with a fully stocked kitchen, multiple seating areas, and great natural light.Hanalei Bay beach is just a few minutes walk away, and the shops and restaurants in town are also very walkable. We appreciated the availability of beach towels, boogie boards, cruiser bikes and snorkeling gear. We definitely hope to stay here again. Mahalo, Greg.

    The kitchen was well equipped and very organized. We cooked most of our meals with daily fresh fish from the Dolphin. We loved the large open living floor. The carpeted section was particularly good for the 9-month old, and the room to run was particularly good for the 2- year old, plus all the adults could keep an eye on them both easily. There was a baby gate to cover the stairs. Beautiful views with windows all around enabled us to enjoy the tropics even while inside. Loved the easy walk into town and to the beach, and the beach gear.

    We had the BEST stay at Tiki Home. Greg was the most awesome and communicative host. The house was just a few minutes walking distance to town and to the beach - could not be more convenient. Beds were super comfy. The shared living space upstairs was a total highlight for our family between daytime excursions. Would love love love to come back and stay again. Mahalo

    This is the fourth rental I’ve stayed in in Hanalei, and it was easily the best. The bedrooms were comfortable, the living room is extremely spacious, and the views from the outdoor deck are beautiful. It was also stocked full of kitchen and beach essentials. Can’t recommend it enough!

    Our family of six had an amazing time in the Tiki house! We spent a couple of days lounging around in the house as the home and surrounding view of the mountains and plants and trees was enjoyable without having to go anywhere else! The beach is a short walk away and the town of Hanalei is almost around the corner from the house. Dont get me wrong, we did a lot more on our vacation, but coming back home to enjoy the Tiki house was a highlight of our vacation!

    Unique home with an awesome open living space on second floor. Great area to hang out with family and a wonderful 360 view of the surrounding area. Plenty of louvered windows upstairs to ventilate house even in July. Location is perfect for access to either the town or the beach.

    We came to Kauai with our son and daughter, their spouses and our 2 granddaughters (20 months and almost 3). The Tiki House was perfect for our family. The upstairs is one big open area, with 3 different sitting areas (couches and chairs) and 2 large tables. Lots of room for the little ones to run around. The location is perfect and we had everything we needed, including a wagon to take all the chairs, towels and toys to the beach. The kitchen is large, with so many cabinets and drawers. Every one is labeled and has every gadget and cooking need you can imagine. Wee did eat most dinners in, due to having the little ones. Our kids got to go out on date-nights and we were able to walk to most places. Everything was as described, but even better. Kauai is magical and we decided this will be an annual trip. We may need a bigger house soon, but if not - this will be the place we stay! Loved the roosters that crow at 5:30 every morning. 5:30 is 8:30 PST, so not a big deal! In short: Clean, spacious, well stocked and comfortable.

    Loved the Tiki House! Great for our family with lots of space upstairs for gathering both inside and outside on the deck. Wonderful views of the surrounding lush hillsides and gardens. Kitchen had vitamix, rice maker, coffee and all the pots and pans we needed for making our own meals. Loved, loved loved the assortment of bicycles below for quick, easy access to beach and town.Felt like the house allowed us the full Hanalei experience. Grateful!

    We stayed with our children and grandchildren. The space is designed for gathering and personal space. There is no air conditioning but with the fans and windows, it was very pleasant and preferred. The photos do not do the house justice—wonderfully designed space for all. We all hope to return.

    Great location, super close to Hanalei Bay, which is amazing. House is very cool. Well equipped with chairs, a beach wagon, and an umbrella. Overall a good stay but given how expensive it is, there are some nuances that made us not give it a 5 star review. First, I think generally the owners have good intentions but they're not professional property managers and it shows.There is an infestation of ghost ants in the kitchen and you have to store all food in the microwave or fridge. Apparently this is common practice on the island, but we lost a lot of food we had bought because the owner didn't tell us this. We woke up to lots of tiny ants all in our cereal, cracker, and cookie boxes. Gross. The required check out process is also unnecessarily burdensome on guests. The owners could easily buy a second set of towels/linens/etc. and have the cleaners wash them offsite but instead they require the guests do multiple loads of laundry (wash, dry, and fold). It took hours to do everything, cutting into the remaining vacation. The pillows are flimsy and need to be replaced. While the house is very unique, it is also a bit weird and unsafe. You have to walk up and down steep tiled steps to get into the master shower. I'm 7 months pregnant and felt uneasy doing this, I would imagine this would be a slip/fall hazard for anyone elderly. You're paying a premium for the fact that there are is not a large supply of houses in this area. For us, it was still probably worth it.

    We had a wonderful stay at the Tiki home! There were 2 families age ranges from 8 months to 8 yrs… the big open floor plan up on top was great for kids to have room to play. All bedrooms were downstairs which is great if you need some separation for naps etc. and house was outfitted with everything you need for the beach which was very convenient. Hanalei is magical and the house worked very well for us!

    Our party of seven adults enjoyed the Tiki House from the first minutes of our arrival. We had so much room on the ground floor where the bedrooms, two baths, and the laundry room were. The top floor with its many seating areas, tables and well-equipped kitchen made our relaxing and cooking lots of fun. The views from upstairs complemented Hanalei's natural spenders and watching the birds hovering and landing around the feed was always delightful.We had a great time walking and biking to the beach. Thanks Greg for the beach chairs, bikes and handy beach towels. We found everything we wanted.

    The tiki house is a very personally crafted spacious home, with everything you need for your Hanalei stay. The location is ideal, a 5 minute walk to the beach and at the most a 10 minute walk into town. The host was always helpful and responsive. Our family of 6 adults never felt crowded. A well designed kitchen made it a pleasure to prepare meals together. The beds are super comfy.

    We had such a wonderful thanksgiving vacation at the tiki home with our family! The upstairs is very spacious and was great for the babies to play around. The large windows and open floor plan make it feel like a jungle house. The kitchen was well equipped for making meals. The best part was the bikes and beach equipment making it super easy to bike down to the beach and enjoy!! Also great to be within walking distance of the grocery and restaurants. We will be coming back! Greg was also incredibly kind and responsive!

    We were awed by the Tiki house and its unique furnishings. At first we thought....whoa, such a huge space. But, our family of eight settled in comfortably, enjoyed the 5 minute walk to the beach, the beach toys, the cruiser bikes, and all the magic that comes with being in North shore, Kauai. Thanks for sharing this wonderful home.
