Amazing cottage stay
This property was gorgeous! The huge yard with the outdoor shower was amazing. We ended up loving the front porch - we would listen to the waves, eat breakfast, and look at all the geckos on the plumeria. We had everything we needed in the home and it was so convenient to have a grocery store right on the corner of the street. It was quiet, peaceful, and exactly what we were hoping the place would be. I felt the clean up expectations were a little much, but the place was impeccably clean, so maybe that contributes. Overall, I would come back in a heart beat!

Great, updated cottage by the beach
We were pleasantly surprised by the ocean view and pretty, spacious backyard. The cottage was very comfortable and nicely renovated. It did give us an authentic, local experience - different from the resort areas. We felt safe but the neighborhood was a bit rough. The extras at the house were much aporeciated - beach towels and chairs, cooler, umbrellas, and boogie boards. Thank you!

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!

Great homely cottage in charming neighborhood
This place was the most comfortable we stayed at while in Kauai. The neighborhood was walkable and had everything you would need. There was a grocery store less than a block away that was fairly affordable. A couple blocks down the road was the best shaved ice spot and next door to that was a cute gift shop with reasonable prices and there were several restaurants to choose from. The cottage itself was wonderful, with stylish decor, comfortable beds, and a great backyard to hang out in. The outdoor shower and bath were fun and made it easy to keep the sand outside of the home. Also this location made for a great starting point to explore Waimea and was relatively short drive from Poipu…10/10 stars.

Lovely Private Place in Relaxing Part of Kauai
Property was cute, very clean with nice well-groomed backyard. Very close to a beach which is not crowded at all. It’s not a swimming beach, but still nice to visit and walk on. Outdoor shower was a surprise plus. Not a far drive from the rest of the South, West and East Island. Restaurant next door can be noisy on weekends (there was some kind of outdoor nighttime party with loud music happening when we arrived which put us off) but the rest of the week it was lovely and peaceful. Very convenient walk to grocery store, a cute shaved ice store, etc. Would definitely stay here again.

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!!

Great Stay
We loved our time at the cottage. Listing was accurate and included all amenities expected. Coffee was a great touch! Be aware that the location is very close to an active area of town with a busy restaurant right on the corner. It was never an issue but there was a lot more night time activity around the cottage than we had expected. Overall an excellent stay! Great proximity to Waimea canyon hiking and the small boat harbor for Na Pali boat tours.

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.

Comfortable Cottage
The Waimea Beach Cottage (WBC) was the perfect place to stay. It was well-appointed with everything you need — beautiful towels, comfy mattresses and sheets, outdoor shower, and lovely backyard as described. You even have your own charming roosters (bring earplugs and you’ll be fine). The ocean was a short distance to the back and the main street was a block away. From small, local merchants, one can find tasty shaved ice, smoothies, coffee, burgers, tacos, burritos, and more by walk-in or driving a few minutes. It is conveniently located to visit the Canyon, Kaua’i Coffee Company, Hanapepe Friday Art Night, and Captain Andy’s at Port Allen. For anyone wanting to experience the charm of small town Hawai’i away from resorts, immerse yourself in culture, and have comfortable amenities at an affordable price, WBC is the place for you.

Not what expected
While the cottage itself was cute inside and remodeled was not expecting to see trash on the porch as we pulled up. As we went in at first it looked great. Our biggest issue was the front door. It did not have a door knob. Upon further looking at it from the inside it looked like a piece of plywood in the middle with 3 locks one was a hook and eye lock and the other two were slide locks that you typically see in a restroom on their door. For it being three women staying there it did not seem safe at all. The beach was very dirty with homeless people. I do understand that does happen here but there was no one else on the beach, I would not have gone for a walk by myself. The neighbors were loud and there was a very loud screech coming from their house made it impossible to enjoy the patio. The back yard was quite nice though. We ended up letting them know we would not be staying there as we did not feel safe. With the 30 min we were there we saw police circling the neighborhood multiple times. It made us wonder why and did not leave us with a good feeling. In talking to the owners they were a little shocked and said they have not heard of that happening but they did wish us well. We did know leaving we would not see a refund and ended up staying in a hotel. It was much easier to sleep knowing that no one could get in the door.
