The house was well equipped with everything we need to stay and cook. It’s a pretty secluded from beach access but its just a quick drive away! Thank you!

Beautifully decorated well stocked home, wide open kitchen & living room, great amenities. Washer & dryer and A/C in every room was a real plus. Close to town & shops. A real shame trees too overgrown to really see the water from the balcony, would have been nice to enjoy. Homeless nearby never bother. Overall pleasant stay

We recently stayed at the Na Hoa River home and it was a perfect place for our 'Ohana. We recently lost our home in the Lahaina Wildfire and needed to get off Maui to relax and clear our minds. The Na Hoa Home was spacious and the A/C was wonderful. It is a little outdated but we didn't mind. There was a enough room in the carport for 2 cars. The residence came with extra beach towels and bedding for our kids to sleep on the couch. Garden Island Properties was great to work with and even provided arrival amenities and groceries for us to enjoy during our stay. We highly recommend the residence for families wanting to explore the entire island. It's a great central location!

House was perfect for my family of 6. Loved getting to sit out on the porch in the morning with coffee. The lack of AC in the third bedroom wasn’t too bad, but def kept our doors all open so the air could circulate. There is a harbor across the way that works most of the day, but was quiet by afternoon/evening and didn’t bother us. There was also a canoeing club and groups of homeless that frequent the area, but also never bothered us. View of the mountains next to the house is fantastic and it’s close to Wailua and Poipu, where we spent most of our time. Overall, great stay and would do it again.

Overall the house was enjoyable. The only issues were the amount of trash that would get blown in from across the street from the homeless camps. The homeless didn’t bother us mostly other than one issue where a lady living out of her car parked right on the grass outside the gate. She would stare us down when we left so that made me a little worried about our personal stuff in the home. There was a stray cat that would greet us everyday on the steps. hopefully the cat finds a home. We enjoyed our stay there and it was like our home away from home.

The house is clean, accommodating and well equipped. Everyone had a great time inside the house. The issue is the area directly across the street. People partying all night long, barking dogs and garbage everywhere. They are not canoe club members. There was no interaction with the people but who wants to walk out of their rental and see garbage everywhere. If that situation is resolved it is a great rental.

The house was very nice!, centrally located, nice view. Garden Island properties is very accommodating! The house is stocked with beach gear too! Definitely bring good ear plugs because the local roosters will wake you up. Also the 3rd bedroom is a bit warm, it’s the only one without an AC unit. The people across the street were quiet, not a problem at all. Overall great stay!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Na Hoa River Home was a perfect house for our family of 4. Before booking, we were a little worried about the noise, but it was quiet (except for the Hawaiian alarm clocks that you can’t avoid). The location was perfect for our South, West, and East shore adventures before we headed to Hanalei for the second week on the island. Would love to return again in the future.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Na Hoa River home worked great for our vacation in Kauai. With three bedrooms, two bathrooms and an open kitchen / living space, we had plenty of space to have meals together and enjoy the beautiful Mountain View. Kalapaki beach is less than a mile from the house and was very convenient to stop by between our other adventures on the island. The nearby harbor has an industrial feel and the Kaiola Canoe Club gets lots of local visitors so the house is much more immersed in the local island culture than the nearby resorts. If that’s what you’re looking for, this is the place for you.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed at this location for five nights prior to heading to the West side for a wedding. It was absolutely perfect for our needs because of the interior size and location from Costco, family and airport. We were staying with two young children and they had everything we needed - pack n play, high chair, beach items (umbrella, chairs, etc.). The living area was plenty of space for the kids to play. Loved having the washer/dryer too. The first evening was a bit warm when we arrived but it cooled down the following days so we didn't have any issues with temperature after that night. There are also many fans (ceiling, at least two additional fans per room).Management was very responsive and helpful with the entire process.Pros:- Size of living area made it very comfortable- Size of rooms and multiple fans made it very comfortable- Patio for morning coffee - the view was amazing- Amenities were great - kids stuff, towels, washer/dryer, washer/dryerThings to consider:- We should have purchased a bag of ice because the ice-maker didn't keep up with our needs- Location near harbor allows people to hang out in the evening so just be aware/diligent

Stayed here with family of 6, more than enough room to spread out. Well equipped kitchen and enough bathrooms for all. Wished we'd known they were filming Jurassic Park in the harbor the day we left! Would recommend to anyone I know.
