A Lovely Spot!

by Laura
We had a terrific time. The location was as perfect - close to the beach and an easy walk to shops & restaurants. Would have given them 5 stars for everything, but internet was down and there wasn’t a backup plan for communicating with them. Everything else was great!

 

Aloha Laura, Thank you for the review! We apologize the internet and cell service went down due to the storm. We've already come up with a plan to get information to you in the event something like that ever occurred again. Glad you enjoyed your stay and the location! Mahalo, Makana Kauai Properties

Excellent Rental Agency

by Robin Flowers
Makana Kauai is one of the best agencies we have rented from-and we rent a lot! They are always available and the communication is always excellent. As for the Happy Place Bungalow-we love it. It\'s perfect for couples and it\'s always clean and comfortable and quiet. The owner has wonderful beach equipment available and it\'s in great condition. The location is excellent- we love walking down to the beach and Hanalei pier-it\'s very close and town is close too, not as close as the beach though. The neighborhood is very quiet which we appreciate-sometimes if you are right on the beach or ocean it\'s not as quiet.

Lovely bungalow close to hanalei bay beach and shops!

by Haley W.
The location was perfect, a short walk into town, and a few blocks from the beach. We loved that we didn’t need to drive anywhere once we arrived. The place itself was clean, the hosts were responsive, and it had a comfy bed and the kitchen was great! This was my second time staying with Makana and I will definitely stay with them again.
Mahalo for your review! We loved hearing that you had a great stay on all levels. Please return soon.

Exceeded Expectations

by Marco
This place exceeded all my expectations. Walking distance to the bay (2 min), walking distance to the main road and shops (5min). Lots of things to do, if you haven’t stayed on the north shore, this is the best place you can get. Perfect for a small getaway. Very private, clean and accessible. Thank you, looking forward to coming back again!

 

Mahalo for staying with us and the excellent review! We look forward to hosting you again!

Most perfect location

by Pat
The Bungalow is tucked into a private neighborhood just 1.5 blocks from the beach at Hanalei Bay. It is also about a 5 minute walk to the center of town. It’s so central, that after our boat ride down the Na Pali coast, we ditched the shuttle back to town and walked home. If you are looking for a peaceful refuge, steps from a breathtaking sunsets, as well as a central location to explore the north shore beaches, we highly recommend the bungalow.

 

Mahalo for staying with us and the excellent review! We look forward to hosting you again!

Great Space & Perfect Location

In a Happy Place

by Mark M.
My wife and I recently enjoyed our stay in Hanalei at "Happy place". This is an excellent location and we walked to the beach and town easily several times. This really added to the Hanalei experience that we had not had form past stays further from town. The one room studio was very well appointed, clean and comfortable. The only disappointment was the lack of an outdoor sitting area to enjoy that experience in the mornings/evenings. That could be accommodated by building a small patio behind the bungalow in a grassy area. We brough chairs back there but felt like we were sitting in the owner's backyard (they were never home, so no issue).
Mahalo for the review and feedback!

Wonderful!!

by Flora K.
Great location, fun place that has everything you need and more. The bungalow was clean and fresh. The host was terrific above and beyond helpful. The beach gear was a huge bonus..
We're so glad you enjoyed your stay Flora! Thank you for the review and we hope to host you again sometime! Mahalo nui loa, Makana Kauai Properties

Hanalei is the place to stay

Property as described. There was a slow running toilet for which management had arranged to have plumber arrive the first full day of the stay. Minor inconvenience that was repaired well. Cleaners at mid stay were friendly and did excellent work. The property is easy walk to the beach and restaurants. Easy to park a car and get anywhere on the island. I enjoyed being on the north shore which felt less busy than other places, although the restaurants did get busy at typical times. Would stay here again.
Thank you for the review Justin! We look forward to hosting you again. Mahalo, Makana Kauai Properties
