Our home was voted one of the best Airbnbs in Hawaii by Condé Nast Traveler and has also been featured in Vogue. Nico Hale has been a top-rated Airbnb on Kauai for years. Ownership has changed, but the service and staff remain the same. The home is a secluded jungle cottage on the North Shore of Kauai, in the neighborhood of Wainiha, just 15 minutes from Hanalei Town. It is surrounded by lush tropical jungle, fruit trees, and sweeping jungle views from every window.<br /><br /><b>The space</b><br />We offer a spacious 2-bedroom house with an additional screened-in lanai, original hardwood floors, and jalousie windows in every room. Full kitchen with all the amenities for cooking large meals after a day at nearby Ke’e Beach or hiking the Kalalau Trail. Expansive views of the mountains and jungle from every window. Sit, relax, and watch exotic tropical birds fly through the neighboring jungle during the day and listen for the waves crashing at night. The rental is on the top floor of a multi-unit residence. The driveway is the only shared space with another house that is detached and private.<br /><br />Washer and dryer in the house. We have items such as yoga mats, beach towels, and board games, and also snorkel/beach gear by request.<br /><br />We are an eco-friendly destination. We have made a conscious choice to operate our endeavor in a completely green and sustainable manner. This means, among other things, that we keep our cottage pesticide- and insecticide-free. Subsequently, you might see insects in our home, along with their charming “predators,” the geckos. Please keep in mind that the geckos help keep the bug population down and that they are our friends.<br /><br />We are the perfect destination for those seeking an off-the-beaten-path alternative to the hotel and resort experience.<br /><br />⸻<br /><br />As required by Interpretive Administrative Zoning Rules and Regulations, Rule 1-A, “for those transient vacation rentals located in the tsunami evacuation zone,” we are informing you that transient vacation rentals located in Hanalei, Wainiha, and Haena are located in the tsunami evacuation zone.

The town of Hanalei is roughly a 15-minute drive. Great location for surfing and snorkeling at Tunnels Beach or kayaking and paddleboarding in Hanalei Bay. Enjoy the local food and crafts at Hanalei Town and the not-to-be-missed Saturday farmers market.<br /><br />Also, close distances to amazing massages, acupuncture, natural foods, and other wellness goodies.<br /><br /><b>Registration Details</b><br />580050360000, TA-147-896-0640-01
