Cozy cottage. Cross the street and you are on the beach. Has a great restaurant on the corner that I was able to get Elk Steaks from. Has coffee shop within walking distance. The cottage was such a cozy quiet place and you can hear the waves from the patio. In case you didnt know, Kauai is the Island of the Roosters. So be prepared to hear them around 430am if you are a light sleeper. The windows are double pane so that helps a bit. Air conditioner unit in every room so that is nice also.

Very stylish and clean place and location was walkable to everything in town. Only real complaint was that neither mattress was particularly comfortable, and there must have been 100 roosters nearby that woke us up every night starting at sometimes 2-3 AM. We knew we weren’t going to sleep past 5 am or so for the remainder of the trip by the first night. Not anyone’s fault but felt it was fair to share! Great place.

Great Cottage Getaway in Waimea

Our stay in this cottage was quite delightful. It was very clean when we arrived and very well stocked with everything we needed - right down to brand new beach chairs that arrived while we were there. The bakyard patio and yard were delightful. Highly recommend this place for a great stay.

Best Beach Cottage in Waimea

We've just had a two night stay in the beach cottage and it was fantastic! Quiet close to the beach, Wranglers Steakhouse and Jo Jo's Shave Ice! Cottage was great - clean, tidy and had everything we needed for our stay! It was a home away from home! We'll be back!

Loved everything about it!

This little cottage was perfect for my friend and I to take a girls trip to Kauai. We both love to hike and to explore the outdoors, so the location was perfect. The beach was right across the street, so we sat on the beach with our wine and the beach chairs provided. I would definitely stay here again.

Perfect little property

This little beach cottage was perfect for our group of 4. The location is awesome, within walking distance to everything we could need. We loved it! The beds and pillows were extremely comfortable, and the outside area was amazing. Relaxing, private, and comfortable.

Great little spot to hunker down

There isn't a ton to do around here and it was raining but the property itself is clean and cozy and if you were able to go hike it would be an awesome location to stay. It was too rainy for us to do much of anything but the property was great!

A magnificent stay

The house was perfect, the beds were great. The major highlight for us was the outside oasis. The yard was so peaceful and the outside shower was glorious. However the biggest joy was the beach for sunset. We made sure to enjoy sunset every night we stayed. Thank you for having us!

Awesome beach cottage!

We loved our four-night stay here! Lovely cottage, nicely decorated/updated, well-stocked kitchen, and an absolutely beautiful backyard, we spent a lot of time out there. They also had a great variety of beach/hiking supplies which was a nice bonus. Easy access to Waimea canyon and hiking and close to the south shore beaches too. Was perfect for our family of four.

Great beach cottage

We loved being so close to a nice black sand beach - just down the road!!! Beautiful sunsets every evening. We loved the backyard sitting area - we used it every evening. Lovely cottage enough away from the hustle and bustle but close enough to walk to some restaurants and shops!! We highly recommend it!!
