We had a wonderful stay in the Wade house on Anini Beach. The house was perfect for our multigenerational family of 10, with three full primary king-bed suites and two additional bedrooms with two twins each. The setting was sublime, and the house comfortable and welcoming.As the chief cook for the family, I'd also like to commend the amazingly well equipped kitchen. It was such a pleasure to have oversize pots, pans, and serving dishes and just about every appliance one could hope for.I'd be happy to return for an even longer stay.

Perfect for multi generational trip. Spot is secluded and peaceful! House is a little run down, but the view makes it worth it. No AC is tough in afternoon, so plan excursions then :)!

Great home right across the road from the beach. Well appointed home, lot's of fans to keep cool, lot's of towels, beach chairs, toys. Great rental. Such a great spot that a small evening wedding picked right in front of the home to have their ceremony. Easy wade into the water with snorkelling right off shore. Would definitely stay again. A few items weren't working and we spoke to the property management company at exit (not a big deal at all) and they were kind and interested in making sure everything was perfect for the next guests. Great experience.

We got to experience all the north shore has to offer at this amazing house. From the most calm seas for the first 3 days to beautiful giant swells for the rest of our 7 days. Near the end of the road this house offers the peace and quiet and views we long for in our trips to paradise. We couldn’t stay in our original condo due to a water leak, and the amazing team at KVR more than made up for it by letting us stay here. We won’t rent with anyone else, they have always taken great care of us.

House was perfect. Our family's 4th time to this location but 1st in this house. Space and layout excellent, location and proximity to beach excellent. Good beach chairs. Everything worked perfectly. Snorkels were good but fins were children's size or a very small adult, so if you wanna use fins, gotta rent em in town. Lack of a/c noted by other reviewers did not bother us given good supply of fans. Hot tub worked well. House kitchen equipment excellent. Beds comfortable, bathrooms and showers worked well. Seems like local law enforcement has been stepped up to keep beach clear of campers...very much appreciated. Rental agent responsive to issue regarding a rebellious smoke alarm. A.m. rooster burden lower than in past. Will be back after saving up.

This was really the perfect house for us. Took my whole family -- kids and grandkids. Five adults and five kids (6 months - 10 years). The house was really perfect. Enough bedrooms and bathrooms for all. Plenty of beach towels -- which was really appreciated. And the small little private beach across the street was amazing. Water could have been warmer --- but considering the time of year -- it was great. The kids were able to snorkel out quite a ways and saw loads of fish and turtles. Some even did a night snorkel out to the far drop off and saw octopus and eels. The great thing about the location was the house is almost at the end of the road -- so very little traffic. Cars did turn around in front of the house -- but honestly wasn't a problem. The checkin and check out were smooth and had no problems with the house. I personally would have loved a french press coffee pot :).... but the others were happy with all the kitchen was stocked with. House was clean and light switches were labeled which was super helpful since there are several spaces that had separate lights. Grandsons had more fun getting coconuts and fishing, and chasing geckos and snorkeling -- no one even attempted to turn on a TV. Highly recommend this house for a large family --- but even a small family would love it!

We had a simply awesome time at the Wade House. We had three couples and a baby and I can truthfully say everyone of us enjoyed the house, the beach and the location on The island. The common area was perfect for gathering and dining. Just PERFECT!

We had a great week at the Wade House. The 3 master suites layout of the house was perfect for our families. We spent every night on the deck, star gazing and every day on the beach in front of the house. The view is gorgeous and the calm beach was perfect for smaĺ children. The kitchen was very well equipped, although the fridge was temperamental. A word of warning: the house isn't air conditioned. During our stay, the 2 smaller bedrooms were 90° every night, even with 2-3 floor fans running all day. The breezes outside never seemed to cool the house.

I was so special to be so close to the beach! The kids could just jump in the oeach anytime. Lots o sea life to see. One bedroom was a little warm. Other wise it was fantastic!

We rented this house in 2008 and enjoyed it so much - we rented it again. Everyone in our group loves this location and home. The only downside is there is no air conditioning. Afternoons are rather humid.

I can't say enough good things about the Wade House - it was the perfect place to stay for our 25th anniversary with our family. The house itself is spacious and beautifully designed, with stunning ocean views and easy access to the beach. The floor plan is great for a multi-family group, with three master bedrooms (all with ocean views!) and two additional bedrooms, each with their own en-suite bathroom. It was wonderful to be able to spread out and have our own space, while still enjoying all the amenities of the house. One of our favorite things about the Wade House was the private beach across the street. It's such a beautiful spot, and we had a blast taking family photos and snorkeling with the sea turtles. It really added to the overall experience and made our trip feel even more special. Overall, I would highly recommend the Wade House to anyone looking for a beautiful and comfortable vacation rental in Anini Beach, Kauai. It was the perfect place for our family celebration, and we'll never forget our time there.

Layout of the house is perfect for a family group or multiple couples. Three master bedrooms plus two bedrooms with two beds each, each with access to its own bathroom. Great access(across a small dead end street) to a very safe beach with good snorkeling right off the beach. The kitchen cabinets need some serious upgrading. For a house with all of the advantages this house offers, it just needs to be refreshed. Otherwise, a great property.

The layout of this house is perfect for a nice family gathering. There are three king suites and two rooms with two twin beds each. There is a large living room and dining room table for ten people. There’s room for several helpers in the kitchen too. Endless ocean views from almost every room. There’s practically a private beach directly across from the house although we shared it with a couple getting married and a necklace company’s photo shoot. It is a beautiful setting for photos. At the end of the road for quiet privacy but don’t forget your groceries since you have a little trek to town. We were out every day so it was easy to bring home anything we needed. Everything was comfortable and clean. It had the best supplied kitchen we’ve ever seen in Kauai and there was a great starter pantry which I appreciate so much! It feels like a loving thing to think of others by having some spices and olive oil, soy sauce and the like. Five stars vacation.

Wade Home is a spacious house in a superb location with access to a picturesque beach. Three master bedrooms with ocean view plus two additional bedrooms and all with en suite bathrooms make it a pleasure to be here with a multi-family group. We stayed here four years ago and literally nothing has changed inside the house. Fairly clean but still has the same slow coffee maker, same tired couch cushions, no new paint. Traffic on the narrow road has ticked up considerably and the cute little beach in front of the house has become a very popular tourist spot. There were at least five photo shoots that took place during our week long stay, in addition to fishermen and other beach goers. We loved our time here but probably won’t be back again because it’s not the serene place it used to be.

Anini Beach is perfect for families especially younger children. Water is calm you can paddle board, snorkel and swim! Property management was great. Property was in a perfect location from our family. I felt the house needed a deep clean especially the kitchen cabinets. Also, one of the twin bedrooms was musty and the bed linens needed to be washed. The family room cushions definitely needed to be recovered/cleaned. Overall, because management was responsive and the location was perfect our family truly enjoyed our vacation!

This was an overall excellent rental in an absolutely perfect location. It is literally steps from the beach situated on a reef that lets you walk or shallow swim what seems like forever. The sunsets are as if they were made just for you. Bring a tripod to capture them or just grab the provided beach chairs and prop yourself on the little stretch of beach that's just in front.You will need a car to drive to nearby grocery store, coffee shops, etc, but everything is a short trip away. The place is well-appointed. There were a few relatively minor post-pandemic hiccups but the agency was courteous and eager to respond. They sent someone out to hand-deliver an appliance that needed replacing. I'd like to see some upgraded appliances — especially a better coffee maker (a french press would also be great for individual cups) and blender — given the tier of place it is, but not a deal-breaker.If you're wondering whether it's worth it — it definitely is, especially if you want a PLACE you can sink into and enjoy rather than running to and fro. It is easy to get to things, but this is a place to enjoy being at as much as enjoy being on Kauai.It works well for a group of people that are connected to each other. Enough space to spread out and not get in each other's way. And you do share the kitchen so at least be able to get along and have good agreements for those moments when you cross paths. You'll want to do a good shop and get all the things you'll need because once there, you won't want to leave. I mostly didn't.We took jaunts to Queen's Bath, a fishing trip and one night out to dinner, but mostly we enjoyed this amazing home that has just enough details to make it still feel inviting but not like you're in someone else's space.I will return as many times as I can.

The Wade House was a perfect fit for our family of 8. Six adults with a 4 month old and a 2 year old. The location was perfection. Across a narrow street from a lovely beach looking at a vast ocean horizon. The house was spacious and designed so each of our 3 family units had their own large bedroom and bath along with 2 other bedrooms and two other bathrooms. We loved this place in every way and plan to go back someday.

Our family of 10 had a wonderful time at Wade House. The beach was great to have right outside the front door. Two small suggestion would be to replace the pillows on the living room sofa and mount the living room TV above the picture window (would make a better view). But we give Wade House two thumbs up.

We knew this property from prior visits to Kauai and booked for a celebration of our 20th anniversary. Just us and the young kids and a sitter but it was a perfectly comfortable and spacious home. The proximity to one of Kauai’s most beloved beaches is the icing on top!
Would love to return!!

Our family loved this home the layout was so perfect, each family group had a wing to themselves with a master suite upstairs. The beach in front is like having your own private beach . The beach was perfect for all ages. The snorkeling was great with colorful tropical fish and turtles. We will be back.
