About this property

Walk to the beach in this lush, serene house with a private garden oasis


Welcome to Hale Leilani (Heavenly Home). Our home is a stunning 3 bedroom Hawaiian style home with soaring ceilings and a lush tropical garden with trees all around for privacy, making it great for couples or families visiting the island.

We love design and creating a feeling of being on a tropical island with natural materials, beautiful art, and an airy, open environment. Our serene Kauai retreat has an unbeatable location. It's serene and quiet yet central. The house is a short, tree lined walk to gorgeous Anini beach and just a 5-minute walk from the local shopping center with a supermarket, cafe, ice cream shop, toy store, clothing boutiques and restaurants. Across the street are two scenic parks. One of the parks has mountain, lakes, and waterfall views. The other park has exercise equipment and a playground so you can have fun for the whole family. Beautiful Hanalei Bay is also just a 7 min drive away. If you like golf, you can also walk a few minutes and you'll be at the world famous Princeville golf course with ocean and mountain views all around.


All of our guests have rated our home a 10/10 and here's why:

• Fast WiFi, three TVs with streaming and cable, and all modern amenities for a stress-free stay

• Jacuzzi tub in master bath, full second bathroom, as well as an outdoor shower

• Fully loaded with beach gear such as Tommy Bahama chairs and umbrella and snorkeling equipment

The Space

• Lush & Private Garden – A tropical oasis perfect for morning coffee or evening relaxation.

• Breathtaking Views – Enjoy mountain views and nature’s beauty from your lanai.

• Master bedroom has a spa like feeling with jacuzzi and marble shower

• A/C – portable unit

• Close to the Beach – Just a 20-minute walk or a short drive to Anini beach's pristine shores. You can find coral reef and sea turtles in this very secluded beach.

• Spacious & Comfortable – Three well-appointed bedrooms, ideal for families, couples, or groups.


Unbeatable Location

• Near Kauai’s Top Attractions – Easy access to beaches, hiking trails, and outdoor adventures. We're secluded yet central – privacy without sacrificing convenience

While you are staying in our home on the north shore you have access to some of the most beautiful scenery and hiking in the world - Hanalei Beach, Tunnels Beach Anini Beach, Ke'e Beach, Kalalau Trail, Bali Hai and many more. Hanalei (from Puff the Magic Dragon) is just down the road which takes about 7 minutes by car it too has many interesting and cute shops, activities and restaurants. Some of my favorites are Postcards, Bar A Cuda, Hanalei Gourmet and many more!

We can't wait to welcome you to Hale Leilani and have many suggestions for things to do during your stay!

Good home base

Overall the house was very nice. Could have been cleaned a little better there were lots of spider webs all over all the lamps and such. Very nice to sit on the lanai although the outdoor furniture could use some new cushions, Good location for all things north shore, kitchen was good to use and grocery near by. We locked ourselves out and the owner quickly brought us help. While each room does have a ceiling fan and one room had an airconditioner it still got very hot in the house. Bathrooms were nice. Nice to have beach chairs

Perfect home layout for family!

Great location close to shops, restaurants, walking paths and beaches. House very comfortable for 6 adults to enjoy time and not on top of each other. Screen lanai was perfect for daily coffee and playing cards. Outdoor shower was such a great addition. Comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen, fantastic open feel and comfortable seating all over. Beautiful back yard.

All the homes in the area are well maintained must have a strong HOA. The neighborhoodJuat is very quiet except for the rosters in the morning but after a day or two you laugh about it. Good walking paths, close to a park pickle ball and golf and of course the beaches with all the great view’s.

Lovely home and neighborhood.

The property is wonderful. The location is great if you want a quiet, peaceful environment with great beaches. We had to travel to the west side for a helicopter ride, and the south side for a luau and boat tour. There are some boat tours from the Priceville area but we wanted a larger boat for our 86 year old mother which was only available at the south shore. They seem to do a lot of road work after the Labor Day weekend so our travel to the west and south shores was very slow. But, despite that minor inconvenience, we had a wonderful 10 days in Princeville at a very well-equipped and comfortable home. Thank you!

Perfect place to enjoy our vacation on the north shore!

This home was wonderful, clean, spacious, and comfortable. We could not have asked for a better home to spend our time! The screened lanai was a perfect place to enjoy our morning coffee. The beds were so comfortable and the home had all of the amenities to make our trip comfortable and easy. It’s also just a couple minute walk away from the weekend farmers market which was so convenient and fun. One thing to be mindful of was the home did not have air conditioning. It would have been nice to have, but we were out most of the day and the fans in the bedroom did a great job of keeping us cool at night. I would absolutely love to stay there again. Great choice for your north shore Kauai vacation!

Great place to stay on Kauai

Bev and Joe's place was perfect for our family of 5. It was spacious, clean, comfortable, and well-appointed and pretty much had everything we needed - loved the great beach towels! Quiet neighborhood. Location is ideal with 5-15min drive to multiple awesome beaches. Easy walk to the park or to the Princeville shopping center if we needed something. It took a day or two to get used to no air-conditioning, but once we did it was really quite lovely. The home can get a bit hot and stuffy in the late afternoon but the fans do help.

Amazing open and comfy house

We loved our stay here on the island of Kauai. This house was perfect for our family of five. It was great to come home to after a day at the beach. There were lots of beach supplies in the garage. The kitchen was roomy enough for us all to work in there at the same time. The whole house was thoughtfully decorated in a Hawaiian theme. The beds were comfortable. One thing to note: there is no air conditioning. We were a little hot when we first arrived, but got used to it and used the ceiling fans and open windows to create airflow. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

A Little Piece of Paradise in Princeville

My friend and I have been best friends for 75 years. We started coming to Hawaii seven years ago to celebrate our 70th birthdays. We were in Maui the last six, but were so close to the devastating fires we couldn’t bear to return. We are so happy we chose Kauai and this beautiful home to stay in. We truly felt the Hawaiian experience while living there. Sitting on the lanai in the mornings with our coffee and evenings with our wine was magical. The backyard was full of lush greenery, flowers, date palms, tropical plants…and we must not forget the chickens and roosters that Kauai is “famous” for. The house itself had all the amenities one could need. The furniture and wall hangings looked like vintage Hawaiian. We had a couple of little glitches, but Bev immediately took care of them. Dean, the handyman, was just great! It was located in a very convenient spot close to the Kuhio Highway which we used to get everywhere we needed to go. We are planning on returning next year. We are so happy we chose this little piece of paradise.

Kauai Vacation

We stayed 6 nights and we loved the house. It was very clean and comfortable. We loved the screened in patio and had breakfast every morning on the patio. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed and that was great because we cooked a lot. Location of the home was good and was close to the town of Princeville. We enjoyed the Farmer’s market on Saturday. It was only about a block to walk to it. We definitely will return to this island and stay in this beautiful home.

Great family house at one of the best Kauai locations

The Princeville house is as advertised - spacious, tastefully decorated, and in one of the best and most convenient parts of Kauai. Though not a recent construction and showing some signs of age, this was a perfect base for our group of four (parents + teen + grandmother) that provide just the right mix of relaxation and accommodation. The Princeville location can't be beat for its access to the North Shore and convenience (walking distance to supermarket, plenty of routes for morning or evening exercise in the neighborhood). This would definitely be my top choice for any future Kauai visits.

Family of 5 enjoying Kauai for the first time. Lucked into picking this perfect location for all our activities as we ended up on north shore most of the time. Our favorite beach (Hanalei) was a short 7 minute drive away and Foodland is walkable distance. My wife enjoyed the craft fair that was there on Sunday. Bev was super responsive and helpful with the small issue we had to get it resolved quickly. Recommended!

A beautiful home!

This was a true Kauai home. It felt like my Auntie's house in Lihue from years ago. Not like a rental at all- just filled with love and coziness all around. The backyard and grounds are beautiful. Just a slice of heaven. We loved our stay so much. I usually try new places when I visit, but I would definitely come back here to this home! Comfy beds, comfy couch, a true Kauai lanai and for some reason....the roosters didn't wake us up like they normally do in Princeville here! Hooray!! It was a miracle!

About the host

Hosted by Ara Khin

Host profile image
We have been coming to Kauai for almost twenty years - even had a vow renewal a few years back on the island. We love the island so much we will want to retire there. This will be our home when we move there in a couple of years. We would like to share our home with others who love the island as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

We loved this property the minute we walked in because of its Hawaiian spirit throughout. This home just completely fit our personalities. Not all modern like everywhere else but tastefully decorated like a Hawaiian home should be. We wanted a home that was all on one floor and we must say that after always living in two story homes this was a pleasant surprise. It feels so large and open. We just love it! We know you will too!

What makes this property unique

We’re a zen garden paradise that’s so close to the shopping center but in a quiet place with no loud music or loud guests. You’ll love the parks and beach nearby as well as the lush tropical garden and Japanese stone gardens.
