The house was great, peaceful, spacious and well stocked with cooking utensil's, beach gear etc. It was even better than the photos showed. We did feel with the early check out of 10 am, the check out instructions asked that we wash and dry all the towels, that felt a bit tight time wise. Stripping the beds and taking trash out and starting the dishwasher were not a problem. all together a wonderful stay!

Our stay at the Yoga house was pure bliss! The house itself was absolutely beautiful, very spacious, perfect for group to spread out and relax. The best part, though, was definitely the peace and quiet, and the lush greenery all around.
Of course, the views were incredible. We spent countless hours just gazing out at the stunning scenery. But the absolute highlight for all of us was the outdoor shower, great to clean off after a day at the beach before you get into the house!
The hosts were fantastic, incredibly responsive and helpful, making sure we had everything we needed for a perfect stay. We can't wait to come back again someday!

The Yoga House, a House of Unity, was just that for our family. It was the perfect place to enjoy 5 relaxing and active weeks in Kauai. Various family members, aged 6 to 78, came and went and enjoyed. It came to feel like home.
The house is so well stocked and comfortable. The outdoor shower, with hot water, was well used after many days at the beaches and ocean.
Laurie was great with communication. It is obvious that she takes great pride in her Kauai home and that she wants each guest to be comfortable and have a great time. There is a library of books, many about Kauai and Hawaiian history.
Princeville offers beautiful scenery and fun activities and beaches. Hanalei is a short drive and we visited there often.
I highly recommend The Yoga House. I hope to return.

Our extended family had such a special time staying at Yoga House for ten days in January 2023. We found the house to be as described - clean, peaceful and in such a great location on the north shore of Kauai. We had read the reviews about the neighbors who like their quiet in the evenings, so we were mindful of that and had no issues at all. There is a new house being built right next door, and construction started bright and early at 7am Mon-Fri. This didn't bother us since we were up before sunrise, but it would be nice to know for those who will be staying in the house over the next few months. The house was well-stocked with kitchen supplies, towels, boogie boards, chairs, coolers and everything we could possibly need for our stay. Parking was ample for three vehicles. Close proximity to stores and beaches. Would absolutely stay again - thank you, Laurie!

A beautiful home in princeville very close to the cute town of Hanalei Bay. My husband and I were thrilled to show our kids and my parents the beautiful island we discovered in 2016. This more than exceeded our expectations.

This is our families 3rd stay at the yoga house. That kind of sums it up, if you are willing to return a third time it's got to be something special! It's a great house for a family or just a couple. The owner is great to deal with and goes out of her way to help make your visit a good one. Can't recommend this rental enough!
Thanks

We originally were booked at another home, but it experienced water damage a week before our trip. By some miracle, the Yoga House was able to accommodate us! The house was clean, the beds were comfortable, the sleeping arrangements fit our needs perfectly, the lanai was wonderful (we had no issues with the neighbors, though we weren't out there very late, and we are a quiet group anyway), and the owners were very responsive. We LOVED that there was snorkel gear. There were what appeared to be some SUPs and I am wishing we had thought to take advantage of those. The kitchen had everything we needed. We had a wonderful trip! We did learn that this time of year (late October), a lot of the beaches on the north side aren't very accessible, except for Anini Beach, a wonderful beach for relaxing, swimming, and snorkeling.

We loved our stay and would definitely return! The house is spacious and comfortable. It was also set up for kids - lots of kids books, games, sand toys and beach supplies. Close to Princeville shopping center and the Queens bath - all in walking distance if you don’t mind a good walk. We loved our stay… our only complaint is that the neighbor is a little uptight but nice. We had the light on outside on the lanai at 7:45pm and she walked over to complain. It was no problem for our group since we have small kids and go to bed early. But if you have a lively group, it could be an issue. But we loved everything about the house, our host and our stay! Recommend it for sure!

We spent ten glorious nights at the yoga house. It was perfect for our family of five including our three adult sized children. The home is as advertised..unfussy and simple, a serene oasis in a magnificent setting. The views from the lanai are just beautiful. We enjoyed walks in the neighborhood after dinner and mornings at the Makai grill (golf course) for coffee. Like others have said, if this home is available do not hesitate...BOOK! Thank you to the Moorhead Ohana. We will be back!

Property was perfect for our family. My adult son is in a full time power wheelchair and this house accommodated him (with a few creative options but that happens with most places we go) the location was great we love Hanalei Bay a very short drive. My son actually proposed at Waimea Canyon and she said yes! So fun to celebrate here. Would definitely rent again. Love Kauai! Owners very easy to communicate with. Aloha

The house was really great! It was roomy and easily fit our multigenerational family. There were 7 of us in total and I felt like we had plenty of space. The lanai is beautiful. There was some decent snorkeling gear available and the kitchen was well stocked. Beds were comfortable, too. This is really a beautiful and well maintained property.

We had a short but awesome stay at the Yoga house in Princeville. I would like to stay longer next time. Kauai is beautiful. The house had everything we needed and was very spacious. It is right around the corner from the market, which is so convenient. There is also a Lappert’s and Shave Ice place in the shopping center. Thank you for letting my family stay at your VRBO.

Our stay at the Yoga House was as advertised. The home is well kept and kitchen fully stocked. Never had any issues with the grumpy neighbor, but then again we respected the quiet hours and there were no issues. We would definitely stay here again with its quiet neighborhood, plentiful activities nearby and the north shore of Kauai, it truly is a special place. Mahalo!

This was our (party of 7 adults) first visit to Kauai. This property was a home away from home and exceeded our expectations. The check in process was straightforward & Laurie(owner of property) responded quickly to any questions we had.
The neighborhood was quiet & peaceful with amazing surroundings. The sounds are amplified at the back of the house.
We were treated to both sunny & wet weather and were able to participate in some of the activities & sites Kauai has to offer.

The Yoga House is a great place all around. Really nice home, comfortable, well-equipped with everything you need including extras like beach towels and chairs, boogie boards, and snorkel gear. Drinking coffee every morning on the Lanai and watching the birds was a great way to start the day. Great location, only minutes away from Princeville Center for shopping and dining and Hanalei Bay is a short drive away.
Laurel was great and always responsive. You can tell she takes great pride in her home.
My family stayed there 11 years ago and loved it, stayed again in December and loved it, and hope to return again in the next couple of years. Highly recommend!

This house was the perfect place for our family of 7. You can tell that the owners actually live here sometimes, and it feels like a real home on the island with almost everything you'll need. We enjoyed relaxing out on the lanai, grilling for dinner and watching birds in the green space. The outdoor shower was great after a long day at the beach, and we loved how close we were to Anini. Raymond the II (this is what we named the gecko who lives behind the painting of the gecko) kept the bugs away and we did not have any problems with mosquitos. Beds were comfortable and even though it was hot during the day, the house cooled off quickly at night with the windows open and all the fans provided. The neighborhood is great, lots of walking trails and beautiful trees and flowers to see. The only thing I would caution is that the sleeping loft does stay rather hot at night, so I would not plan to have anyone sleeping up there during the warmer months. My 3 year old cried when we left and is still asking to "go back to Hawai'i house". If this house is available, don't hesitate, just book it and you'll be happy you did!

Our family stayed here for 4 nights while visiting the north shore. First, the property was perfectly described in its listing. The 5 of us loved our time there. The hosts were super responsive, and even responded quickly to allow us an early check-in. The large neighborhood was surprisingly very quiet. Minutes from a grocery store and a very short drive to Hanalei (great shopping and food) and dozens of awesome beaches within a short drive. I wouldn't hesitate for a second to stay here again. Thanks to Laurel for making our trip to Kauai perfect, your home was awesome.

The property was great!!! It was comfortable and clean. The listing is spot on. There is a 9:00 pm quiet time that is no joke the neighbor across from the house that will call your party in for being load. We put a consensus effort in to be quiet after the sun went down but still received a message fro the owners. All in all this was a great stay!!!

The Yoga house would be a good choice for a large family. It's a nice safe neighborhood and shopping was convenient. The outdoor shower was useful. Our stay would have been improved with a newer bed, towels and bedding. We found it necessary to close the windows when we watched TV because of a very particular neighbor.

The most well organized and comfortable house we have stayed in in many years of rentals. Peaceful greenbelt off the lanai. All the cooking equipment and dishes needed, and easy to find. Very responsive owner. Excellent for two couples, bedrooms are separated by the living room so plenty of personal, private space. Highly recommended.

Being here felt like a warm loving maternal embrace. Usually we stay in Kapa’a, and the location allowed us to deepen and widen into the northern part of the island. Everything about arranging the trip was super smooth, and the home was equipped with all one would need for an inspired stay. We loved the books! Breakfast on the lanai, and the beautiful decor of the space. It’s charm and magic can’t be captured in photos. We loved reading the guest books and stories of those who had stayed before us. What struck me most about this space is that you could feel the love the owners have for this home, and this island, and their desire to share this magic so generously with others. It was a perfect place, on a personal note, for me to cultivate a connection with the aloha for the land my ancestors knew. So grateful!

The house was above and beyond our expectations. My friend and her husband stayed at another place. She came to this house. “You won”. “Won what?” “Best house ever”. Truly beautiful and well kept. If we return to Kauai, e we will look for this place first.

The owners were great to work with during the times of COVID. The house was just as described, it is fully equipped with everything you need to survive GOV. Ige’s catastrophes. Dishes, beach towels, coolers, boogie boards, beach chairs and more, are readily available for use. Don’t mind the neighbor behind the house, there was more than one lime available to enjoy with your tequila shots or lime and cucumber water. The property is beautiful and the area is just as gorgeous. Although a bit of a drive, it is worth it for the scenery. Queens bath is just under a mile away, and the mountains blessed us with gorgeous waterfalls each morning. Don’t forget to sign the guest book before your check out, that was such an awesome touch and to read others stories of their stay was really awesome! Thank you Laurel for allowing us in your home.

We really appreciated how responsive and open the host was. It made the entire stay so much more enjoyable and she really kept us in the loop. The home itself was absolutely beautiful and well equipped. There were items to go to the beach such as an umbrella, ice chest, snorkel fins, and many others. Plenty of towels and dishes as well. Describing the beauty of Princeville end of Kauai in general isn’t easy. Everything about this trip was breathtaking. I will absolutely stay here again given the opportunity. This home has everything you need and all the comforts you would want. Mahalo!

The yoga house was open, airy, and peaceful. It is in a great location to access some wonderful, secluded beaches. As a group of 4 adults and 3 teens there was plenty of room and ample supplies for all our needs. The lanai was the highlight as was that reading chair in the corner with the cross breeze! Laurel was responsive and proactive. We could not have asked for a better experience for our first time to Kauai!

My family and I absolutely loved our stay at the Yoga House. It’s setting with expanding garden view from the covered deck allowed us to enjoy watching the coral-colored clouds float over the brilliant tropical and palms. There was plenty of space for our family of 5 with a large living room/kitchen/dining room where we enjoyed cooking, eating and games together. Laura quickly communicated with us and helped us navigate the covid restrictions. All around a perfect setting for us and we hope to return!

I didn’t stay there, but from what I heard from the one’s that did, the property was very nice. It was an added bonus to have the kid’s seat and other amenities. The location is great, close to to anything you’d wanna do on the North Shore. Laurel was great about communications, and expectations, as well as walking us through the covid check in process.

This island house has the most glorious lanai. We spent most of our time there. The house was well equipped, with most everything you would need in the kitchen (including sharp knives!), comfy beds and bedding, plenty of towels and beach equipment. It is walking distance to the town center, several nice (small) beaches, and the Makai golf course. Laurie was a pleasure to deal with and patient with my questions. You will love staying here.

We stayed at Laurie’s house for 5 weeks and didn’t want to leave. The pictures don’t really emphasize the beautiful green belt/open space behind the house that feels like you are on a multi acre property. The neighborhood is so quiet and well maintained and just a quick drive from Hanalei. The kitchen is very well appointed for cooking plus blender and coffee makers/grinder/espresso pot etc. Another unexpected bonus was all the beach toys, beach chairs, beach towels plus puzzles/games. Laurie was very responsive and helped us navigate the confusion of being one of the first parties through the resort bubble program. Would love to stay again!

No surprises..comfortable, excellent beds and shower, great air and pretty much bug-free and one rooster that gets up at 4:50 The lanai view is to be remembered and good seat for when a shower scoots, reading, or a snooze. Plenty of kitchen "hardware" an easy house to live in.

My family and I stayed at the Yoga House in September for 9 days.The house exceeded our expectations. Our family felt at home immediately.The house was clean and well stocked with just about everything we could need, from bird watching binoculars to boogie boards and ice chests. We have been to Kauai many times before and have always stayed in condos, but this time we wanted more space for our older children and their friends. This home has plenty of space, indoors and out. Comfortable furnishings, huge deck with a BBQ, nice kitchen with just about everything you could need, lots of room for everybody in the living room/dining room area, three big bedrooms and a loft. The outdoor shower is really cool when you are all sandy after a day at the beach.I had never rented from VRBO before and was a little nervous about not using some kind of agency for booking. But Laurel was great to work with right from the start and helped us through the process. She also answered many questions we had promptly via email. If you are done with the condo/resort experience and are looking to stay in a home on Kauai, this is a great choice. If you are traveling with a large group, do yourself a favor and shop at Costco. You will save a pile of money! I plan on renting this home again when I visit Kauai in the future and I have recommended this home to my friends.

We loved our stay at the Yoga house. The house was equipped with everything we needed, including beach and snorkeling gear. There was something magical about hanging out at night on the lanai with a glass of good wine listening to the rain. I highly recommend this home for families.

The awesome Yoga House
★ ★ ★ ★ ★
The Yoga House was so much more than we expected. Our family of six comfortably stayed for two and a half weeks. The large, great room was a fantastic common area for all of us to relax after playing on the many nearby beaches. The three separate bedrooms plus loft provided the perfect sleeping and chill out spaces.
The owners take great care of their property, and it truly shows in and out of the house. As we first stepped in from the large front lanai, we instantly knew we found the perfect vacation home away from home. The open beam ceilings and wood flooring give it a homey and yet Hawaiian feel. We were really hoping that a vacation home in Princeville would not feel like an "anyplace" home. The Yoga House really felt like a house that belonged in Kaua'i.
I think our favorite spot in the house was the 200 square foot covered lanai just off the great room. We ate all of our meals at the six person table. The fact the house sits adjacent to a green belt really provides the perfect feeling of outdoor openness one can only wish for. Whether it was sunny or rainy, the covered lanai was the perfect space.
The house sits back from a main loop road and feels very secluded. We especially enjoyed walking around the property as well as walking to the Primceville Shopping Center for early morning coffee. Just walking through the neighborhood provides a tranquil and serene Kaua'ian experience.
Would we return again to the Yoga House? Absolutely, in a heartbeat, no questions asked. We just hope it will be available the next time we can make it over to Nani Kaua'i!
Mahalo Nui Loa to the owners for sharing their beautiful 'hale' with the VRBO world.

A beautiful house in a fantastic setting. It was so relaxing to spent some days in your home. It had everything we needed, space for everyone in the family ( 3 adults plus 2 almost grownups), very quiet and comfortable, close to Hanalei Bay and Anini Beach. A great place to explore the beauty of Kauai (to describe it in worlds would take a lot more than just one review) . Booking and comunications were very easy and comfortable. Thank You so much, You made us feel like home almost half around the globe.

The Yoga House provided the perfect home base for our stay on the north side of the island. Just a quick drive from Hanalei and Kilauea and a few minutes from the Princeville shopping area that has almost everything you need.
The house is well equipped and stylishly furnished with comfortable seating and bedding.
Thank you for providing everything we need to make our stay pleasant so that we could focus on having a good time and enjoying our time together.

We absolutely loved the Yoga House. It was spacious, clean, and close to many of the North Shore's gorgeous beaches and towns. The outside shower was a pleasant bonus after multiple days of beach hopping due to sand collecting in varies articles of clothing, as well as between the toes etc. The high ceilings were reminicent of a Tahoe ski chalet with screened open windows throughout. Necessary ecoutrements included dishwasher, laundry, and coffee pot. Kitchen was apt with space, not garganteous by any means, but enogh to prepare food for 6.
Drawbacks included a tempermental wi-fi (router needs to be replaced) as well as an amazing 5.1 surround sound stereo system with auxilary jack that 3 stereo nerds could not figure out. This was quite a bummer, it was as if a beautiful Porsche was there for us in the garage sans the car keys. Petty perhaps, but music is a key ingrediant for any get away.
Hands down, we would consider coming back to this place in a heartbeat. Princeville has the amenities at hand for a home rental, grocery store, food, etc. and close to the best parts of Kauai....Hanalei, Larsen's Beach and Kapaa. If you can avoid the madness of the south shore, please do. The East and North shore is lush with rain forests and empty beaches and cooler weather peppered by warm and transient rainfall.

We had a lovely stay at The Yoga House. My husband, sister and I spent a week in September. The house was well equipped, very clean, and provided some welcome extra’s (snorkel equipment, beach chairs, boogie boards, lots of beach towels, sunblock etc.) which came in very handy. Located in a residential area of Princeville, it’s an easy walk to Queen’s Bath and the golf course and a short drive to Princeville center.
Laurel was very friendly and responsive and provided lots of information. We would definitely recommend this property to a friend.
A couple things to note, the master bedroom faces the road. This is a quiet area and there is not a lot of traffic on the road. However at night you can see into the master bedroom through some of the windows. There are pretty tropical plants just outside that provide some privacy but it is not completely covered. We were here in the summer and it was hot even at night, there is no air-conditioning, but there are a few fans provided. This was not a big deal for us, but it might be a problem for those people expecting to have air conditioning. We couldn't figure out the new sound system for the TV, they have a new system installed and the instructions had not been updated. Again this was just a minor inconvenience. Overall we enjoyed our stay; I think this is a great place for a family with kids.

We were very pleased with our stay at "Hale Yoga" (Yoga House) in Princeville. It is well maintained with all the amenities, just as described. The area is so very maluhia (peaceful) too. We would recommend staying at Hale Yoga. Grant & Laurie, Mahalo nui loa for sharing your lovely home!!
